A complete complexity dichotomy of the edge-coloring problem for all sets of 8-edge forbidden subgraphs

Journal of Applied and Industrial Mathematics (перевод журналов "Сибирский журнал индустриальной математики" и "Дискретный анализ и исследование операций"). 2023. Vol. 17. No. 4. P. 791–801.
Malyshev D., Duginov O. I.

For a given graph, the edge-coloring problem is to minimize the number of colors sufficient to color all the graph edges so that any adjacent edges receive different colors. For all classes defined by sets of forbidden subgraphs, each with 7 edges, the complexity status of this problem is known. In this paper, we obtain a similar result for all sets of 8-edge prohibitions.

Automated Ranking of Soybean Plots from Close-Range RGB Video via Depth Filtering and Point-Based Counting
Groshev Maksim, Rybakov Petr, Teterin N. et al., Sensors 2026 Article 6171
Manual assessment of soybean yield components, such as pod number, is laborious, time-consuming, and subjective. Existing computer-vision approaches based on object detection or instance segmentation perform poorly on close-range RGB imagery of soybean canopies due to severe occlusions, ambiguous plant boundaries, and the high cost of bounding-box annotation. To address these challenges, we propose a ...

To spike or not to spike: the whims of the Wonham filter in the strong noise regime
Bernardin C., Chhaibi R., Najnudel J. et al., Probability Theory and Related Fields 2026 Vol. 195 P. 1823–1875
We study the celebrated Shiryaev-Wonham filter (Wonham, W.M., in J. Soc. Ind. Appl. Math. 347–369, 1964) in its historical setup, where the hidden Markov jump process has two states. We are interested in the weak noise regime for the observation equation. Interestingly, this becomes a strong noise regime for the filtering equations. Earlier results of ...

Explicit Formula for Inverse and Determinant in Geometric Algebras over Odd-dimensional Vector Spaces
Abdulkhaev K., Shirokov D., Advances in Applied Clifford Algebras 2026 Vol. 36 P. 1–21
In this paper, we present explicit formulas for the inverse and determinant in geometric (Clifford) algebras over vector spaces of dimension n = 7. The derivation of these formulas is made possible by generalizing the concept of conjugation to basis conjugation operations. We further develop a general method for constructing such formulas over odd-dimensional spaces ...

Enhancing Boundary Stability in Decision Trees and Random Forests: A Weighted Sample Duplication Approach
Konstantinov A., Elizarova Anastasiya P., Utkin L., Computing, Telecommunications and Control 2026 Vol. 19 No. 1 P. 16–25
Decision trees and their ensemble extensions, such as random forests, are widely used as classification models due to their simplicity and interpretability. However, in many real-world tasks where class labels overlap in the feature space, standard decision trees rely on hard splits that create fragile decision boundaries. In these regions, small perturbations in the input ...

Medvedev G., Alexandrov Artem, Physical Review E - Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft Matter Physics 2026 Vol. 114 Article 044102
Graphons are measurable functions used to describe the asymptotic behavior of convergent graph families. Originally motivated by problems in combinatorics and graph theory, graphons have found numerous applications in the modeling and analysis of dynamical processes on networks. In this work, we use graphons to formulate the Ising model on convergent graph sequences, which include ...

For given edge-capacitated connected graph and two its vertices s and t, the bottleneck (or max min ) path problem is to find the maximum value of path-minimum edge capacities among all paths, connecting s and t. It can be generalized by finding the bottleneck values between s and all possible t. These problems arise ...

The problem of query answering over incomplete attributed graph data is a challenging field of database management systems and artificial intelligence. When there are rules on data structure expressed in the form of the ontology, the theoretical complexity of finding exact solution satisfying ontology constraints increases. Logic-based methods use theoretical constructions to obtain efficient rewritings ...

Sergei Valentinovich Fedorenko, IEEE Access 2023 Vol. 11 P. 62771–62779
The novel methods for binary discrete Fourier transform (DFT) computation over the finite field have been proposed. The methods are based on a binary trace calculation over the finite field and use the cyclotomic DFT. The direct DFT computational complexity has been reduced due to using the binary trace function over the finite field and ...

We consider the relationship between the algorithmic properties of the validity problem for a modal or superintuitionistic propositional logic and the size of the smallest Kripke countermodels for non-theorems of the logic. We establish the existence, for every degree of unsolvability, of a propositional logic whose validity problem belongs to the degree and whose every ...

Complexity of finite-variable fragments of propositional temporal and modal logics of computation
Rybakov M., Shkatov D., Theoretical Computer Science 2022 Vol. 925 P. 45–60
We prove that branching-time temporal logics CTL and CTL* are polynomial-time embeddable into their single-variable fragments. It follows that satisfiability for CTL and CTL*, and therefore also for alternating-time temporal logics ATL and ATL*, in languages with one propositional variable is as algorithmically hard as satisfiability for the full logic: EXPTIME-complete for CTL and ATL, and 2EXPTIME-complete for CTL* and ATL*. We discuss applicability of the technique used in the proofs to other ...

An intractability result for the vertex 3-colourability problem
Malyshev D. S., Приставченко О. В., Optimization Letters 2022 Vol. 16 P. 1403–1409
The vertex 3-colourability problem is to decide whether the vertex set of a given graph can be split into three subsets of pairwise non-adjacent vertices. This problem is known to be NP-complete in a certain class of graphs, defined by an explicit description of allowed 5-vertex induced subgraphs in them. In the present paper, we improve this result by ...

On computational complexity of set automata
Rubtsov A. A., Vyalyi M., Information and Computation 2021 Vol. 281 Article 104797
We consider a computational model which is known as set automata. The set automata are one-way finite automata with additional storage-the set. There are two kinds of set automata-deterministic (DSA's) and nondeterministic (NSA's). The model was introduced by Kutrib, Malcher, Wendlandt in 2014. It was shown that DSA-recognizable languages look similar to DCFL's and NSA-recognizable ...

Traditionally, description logic has focused on represent- ing and reasoning about classes rather than relations (roles), which has been justified by the deterioration of the computa- tional properties if expressive role inclusions are added. The situation is even worse in the temporalised setting, where monodicity is viewed as an almost necessary condition for decidability. We ...
