We present several enumeration results holding in sets of words called neutral and which satisfy restrictive conditions on the set of possible extensions of nonempty words. These formulae concern return words and bifix codes. They generalize formulae previously known for Sturmian sets or more generally for tree sets. We also give a geometric example of this class of sets, namely the natural coding of some interval exchange transformations.
Boolean network models have gained popularity in computational systems biology over the last dozen years. Many of these networks use canalizing Boolean functions, which has led to increased interest in the study of these functions. The canalizing dep
Using three supercomputers, we broke a record set in 2011, in the enumeration of non-isomorphic regular graphs by expanding the sequence of A006820 in Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences (OEIS), to achieve the number for 4-regular graphs of orde
The feedback arc (vertex) set problem, shortened FASP (FVSP), is to transform a given multi digraph $G=(V,E)$ into an acyclic graph by deleting as few arcs (vertices) as possible. Due to the results of Richard M. Karp in 1972 it is one of the classic
We show that a simple Markov chain, the Glauber dynamics, can efficiently sample independent sets almost uniformly at random in polynomial time for graphs in a certain class. The class is determined by boundedness of a new graph parameter called bipa
This paper addresses the problem of finding minimum forcing sets in origami. The origami material folds flat along straight lines called creases that can be labeled as mountains or valleys. A forcing set is a subset of creases that force all the othe
