In the Euclidean TSP with neighborhoods (TSPN), we are given a collection of n regions (neighborhoods) and we seek a shortest tour that visits each region. As a generalization of the classical Euclidean TSP, TSPN is also NP-hard. In this paper, we pr...
This expository paper introduces the theory of Harish-Chandra integrals, a family of special functions that express the integral of an exponential function over the adjoint orbits of a compact Lie group. Originally studied in the context of harmonic...
In this paper we prove that certain matrix elements of vertex operators of deformed W-algebra satisfy Macdonald difference equations and form n! -dimensional space of solutions. These solutions are the analogues of Harish Chandra solutions with pre...
We use the progenerator constructed in our previous paper to give a necessary condition for a simple module of a finite reductive group to be cuspidal, or more generally to obtain information on which Harish-Chandra series it can lie in. As a first a...
Dual-functional radar-communication (DFRC) is a promising new solution to simultaneously probe the radar target and transmit information in wireless networks. In this paper, we study the joint optimization of transmit and receive beamforming for the...
Software clustering is one of the important techniques to comprehend software systems. However, presented techniques to date require human interactions to refine clustering results. In this paper, we proposed a novel dependency-based software cluster...
We give emphasis on the use of chaos-based rigorous nonlinear technique called Visibility Graph Analysis, to study one economic time series - gold price of USA. This method can offer reliable results with fiinite data. This paper reports the result o...
We analyze nearly 20 million geocoded PubMed articles with author affiliations. Using K-means clustering for the lower 48 US states and mainland China, we find that the average published paper is within a relatively short distance of a few centroids....
This paper examines the value of a cancellable European option in a finite time horizon setting. The specifications of this generalized European option allow the seller to cancel the option at any point in time for a fixed penalty paid directly to th...
This paper presents a reactive planning system that enriches the topological representation of an environment with a tightly integrated semantic representation, achieved by incorporating and exploiting advances in deep perceptual learning and probabi...
We show in this paper how managed multi-context systems (mMCSs) can be turned into a reactive formalism suitable for continuous reasoning in dynamic environments. We extend mMCSs with (abstract) sensors and define the notion of a run of the extended...
This paper describes a method to implement Reactive Power Compensation (RPC) in power systems that possess nonlinear non-stationary current disturbances. The Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) introduced in the Hilbert-Huang Transform (HHT) is used t...
Seamless vector pattern with gingerbread cookies shaped like bow, candy cane, and gingerbread men on a pink background. Ideal for Christmas wrapping paper, fabric, and festive packaging.
In this paper, we design efficient algorithms to approximately count the number of edges of a given $k$-hypergraph, and to sample an approximately uniform random edge. The hypergraph is not given explicitly, and can be accessed only through its colou...
Experiments are conducted in a laboratory flume on the propagation of a surface wave against unidirectional flow with a sediment bed. This paper presents the spatial variation of bed forms induced by the wave-blocking phenomenon by a suitably tuned u...
In the September 1994 issue of Math Horizons the following problem is given in the Problem Section (p. 33, Problem 5): Lowest Terms - what fraction has the smallest denominator in the interval (19/94, 17/76)? In this paper we develop a general algo...
In this paper we present results of the lowest eigenvalues of random Hamiltonians for both fermion and boson systems. We show that an empirical formula of evaluating the lowest eigenvalues of random Hamiltonians in terms of energy centroids and wid...
