Graph cover problems form a critical area within discrete optimisation and theoretical computer science, addressing the challenge of selecting subsets of vertices (or edges) that satisfy predetermined ...

Children as young as 4 years old are capable of finding efficient solutions to complex problems, such as independently inventing sorting algorithms developed by computer scientists. The scientists ...

Researchers have successfully used a quantum algorithm to solve a complex century-old mathematical problem long considered impossible for even the most powerful conventional supercomputers. The ...

Drop in at a library, and you’ll likely notice that most shelves aren’t full—librarians leave some empty space on each shelf. That way, when they get new books, they can slot them into place without ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. For computer scientists, solving problems is a bit like mountaineering. First they must choose a problem to solve—akin to identifying a ...

We present a new optimization-based method for aggregating preferences in settings in which each voter expresses preferences over pairs of alternatives. Our approach to identifying a consensus partial ...
