A power assignment is an assignment of transmission power to each of the wireless nodes of a wireless network, so that the induced graph satisfies some desired properties. The cost of a power assignment is the sum of the assigned powers. In this paper, we consider the dual power assignment problem, in which each wireless node is assigned a high- or low-power level, so that the induced graph is strongly connected and the cost of the assignment is minimized. We improve the best known approximation ratio from $frac{pi^2}{6}-frac{1}{36}+epsilonthickapprox 1.617$ to $frac{11}{7}thickapprox 1.571$. Moreover, we show that the algorithm of Khuller et al. for the strongly connected spanning subgraph problem, which achieves an approximation ratio of $1.61$, is $1.522$-approximation algorithm for symmetric directed graphs. The innovation of this paper is in achieving these results via utilizing interesting properties for the existence of a second Hamiltonian cycle.
We investigate the problem of determining the Hamiltonian of a locally interacting open-quantum system. To do so, we construct model estimators based on inverting a set of stationary, or dynamical, Heisenberg-Langevin equations of motion which rely o
We obtain improved upper bounds and new lower bounds on the chromatic number as a linear function of the clique number, for the intersection graphs (and their complements) of finite families of translates and homothets of a convex body in $RR^n$.
Let C be a simple, closed, directed curve on the surface of a convex polyhedron P. We identify several classes of curves C that live on a cone, in the sense that C and a neighborhood to one side may be isometrically embedded on the surface of a cone
Given a planar graph $G$, we consider drawings of $G$ in the plane where edges are represented by straight line segments (which possibly intersect). Such a drawing is specified by an injective embedding $pi$ of the vertex set of $G$ into the plane. W
A Dubins path is a shortest path with bounded curvature. The seminal result in non-holonomic motion planning is that (in the absence of obstacles) a Dubins path consists either from a circular arc followed by a segment followed by another arc, or fro
