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.

Formal verification in complexity theory
Reading books and papers on complexity theory, I am struck by the extreme degree to which proofs are stated in an intuitive, hand-wavy way. The alternative is to give a lot of details about the coding …

Definition of relativization of complexity class
Is there any general definition, for a class $C$ of languages, what is the relativized class $C^A$ for an oracle $A$?
Usually, these classes and their relativizations seem to be defined in an ad-hoc …

Amortized analysis of data structure via potential function
One common method for proving that a data structure supports an operation in $O(f(n))$ amortized time is to construct a potential function $\Phi: \mathcal S \rightarrow \mathbf R^{+}$, which associate …

When is polytope compatible with network flow?
A linear program is the problem of optimizing an linear objective function within some polytope $A$ over $\mathbf R^n$. My question is motivated by the question of when a linear programming problem ca …
