Back in the hazy olden days of the pre-2000s, navigating between two locations generally required someone to whip out a paper map and painstakingly figure out the most optimal route between those ...

Nash equilibria represent a cornerstone in game theory, defining strategy profiles wherein no player can benefit by unilaterally deviating. This concept underpins a myriad of applications, ranging ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — In 2019, Google claimed it was the first to demonstrate a quantum computer performing a calculation beyond the abilities of today’s most powerful supercomputers. But most of the ...

Graphs are everywhere. In discrete mathematics, they are structures that show the connections between points, much like a public transportation network. Mathematicians have long sought to develop ...

Voting theory is an interdisciplinary field that examines and evaluates the procedures and algorithms underlying collective decision‐making. Recently, researchers have focused on bridging voting ...

DNA Copy number variation (CNV) has recently gained considerable interest as a source of genetic variation that likely influences phenotypic differences. Many statistical and computational methods ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract This paper considers the problem of scheduling n jobs, each having a processing time, a due date and a weight, on a single machine to minimize ...

A new theory could bring a way to make quantum algorithm development less of an accidental process, say scientists. In 2019, Google claimed it was the first to demonstrate a quantum computer ...
