The standard so-called experts algorithms are methods for utilizing a given set of “experts” to make good choices in a sequential decision-making problem. In the standard setting of experts algorithms, the dec...

Continuity of the map** from initial endowments and utilities to equilibria is an essential property for a desirable model of an economy – without continuity, small errors in the observation of parameters of...

Analysts predominantly use OLAP data cubes to identify regions of anomalies that may represent problem areas or new opportunities. The current OLAP systems support hypothesis-driven exploration of data cubes t...

Several network-flow problems with additional constraints are considered. They are all special cases of the linear-programming problem and are shown to be ℘-complete. It is shown that the existence of a strong...
Chapter and Conference Paper
This paper is concerned with generalized network flow problems. In a generalized network, each edge e=(u, v) has a positive “flow multiplier” a e associated with it. The interpretation is that if a flow of x e en...
Article
A technique is presented by which NC and RNC algorithms for some problems can be extended into NC and RNC algorithms, respectively, that solve more general parametric problems. The technique is demonstrated on...
Article
This issue ofAlgorithmica present papers on various aspects of nonlinear methods for solving linear programming problems, inspired by the work of Karmarkar. This introduction describes some of these aspects and b...
