Informally, an algorithm is a set of explicit instructions used to solve a problem (e.g. Euclid's algorithm for computing the greatest common divisor of two integers). For more specific questions on algorithms, this tag may be used in conjunction with the approximation-algorithms, algorithmic-randomness and algorithmic-topology tags.

Is there an algorithm for generating sets of routes that satisfy edge volume constraints?

At the very lowest level of modelling, one has to make some assumptions about the chosen paths, e.g. that they are the optimal ones connecting a pair of nodes. With that assumption, one obtains for ea …

Algorithm for Low Discrepancy Sequence of Hamilton Cycles in Complete Graphs

The first thing I did, was to repeat my search for algorithms that generate the $n$-th Steinhaus-Trotter-Johnson permutation - needless to say that the search was still not successful; this time however …

Algorithms for Sorting Subset Sums

After some fruitless efforts to devise a tree-structure based on subset inclusion and after some investigations on the usability of de Bruijn sequences, I finally arrived at a surprisingly simple meth …

Shortest path in a weighted graph with coloured edges

The problem can be reduced to an ordinary shortest path problem via vertex splitting where however, the number of generated vertices equals the degree of the original vertex and not two, as is commonl …

Complexity of Determining the Edges of Planar Convex Hulls

Question: can the set of edges that resemble the convex hull ($CH$ for short) of $n$ points in the euclidean plane be determined in $O(n)$ time? I know that the time complexity of determining the $C …

Algorithm for Finding all Empty Ellipses Locked by a Set of Points

Any information about the problem of determining the set of all locked empty ellipses for a given set of points $\mathcal{P}$ (e.g. complexity of algorithms, bounds on the number of ellipses, etc.) would …

Detecting Negative Cycles in Undirected Graphs

Unfortunately, the answer is negative in the general case! Counterexamples can be easily constructed in the following way: take a graph, that resembles a tree with at least one sufficiently lon …

Testing Randomness of Permutation Sequences

Maybe this question is too simple, but I couldn't find anything that is concerned with measuring how random a sequence of permutations of $n$ elements( w.l.o.g. of the numbers $\lbrace 1,\ \dots,\ n \ …

Finding Optimal Vertex Weights without Linear Programing

Are there algorithms for finding $\omega_1\dots,\omega_n$, so that $\omega_i+\omega_j\le \|e_{ij}\|\ \forall i,j\quad\wedge\quad\sum{\omega_i}=max$ that are not based on linear programing, e.g. graph … theoretic algorithms? …
