چکیده

We study the set of no-signalling empirical models on a measurement scenario, and show that the combinatorial structure of the no-signalling polytope is completely determined by the possibilistic information given by the support of the models. This is a special case of a general result which applies to all polytopes presented in a standard form, given by linear equations together with non-negativity constraints on the variables.

Linear Programming, the Simplex Algorithm and Simple Polytopes

In the first part of the paper we survey some far reaching applications of the basis facts of linear programming to the combinatorial theory of simple polytopes. In the second part we discuss some recent developments concurring the simplex algorithm. We describe sub-exponential randomized pivot roles and upper bounds on the diameter of graphs of polytopes.

Study of Random Biased d-ary Tries Model

Tries are the most popular data structure on strings. We can construct d-ary tries by using strings over an alphabet leading to d-ary tries. Throughout the paper we assume that strings stored in trie are generated by an appropriate memory less source. In this paper, with a special combinatorial approach we extend their analysis for average profiles to d-ary tries. We use this combinatorial appr...

On the combinatorial structure of chromatic scheduling polytopes

Chromatic scheduling polytopes arise as solution sets of the bandwidth allocation problem in certain radio access networks, supplying wireless access to voice/data communication networks for customers with individual communication demands. To maintain the links, only frequencies from a certain spectrum can be used, which typically causes capacity problems. Hence it is necessary to reuse frequen...

The combinatorial stages of chromatic scheduling polytopes

Chromatic scheduling polytopes arise as solution sets of the bandwidth allocation problem in certain radio access networks. This problem is NP-hard, and admits no polynomial time algorithms with a fixed approximation ratio. As algorithms based on cutting planes have shown to be successful for many other combinatorial optimization problems, the goal is to apply such methods to the bandwidth allo...

Schläfli numbers and reduction formula

We define so-called poset-polynomials of a graded poset and use it to give an explicit and general description of the combinatorial numbers in Schläfli’s (combinatorial) reduction formula. For simplicial and simple polytopes these combinatorial numbers can be written as functions of the numbers of faces of the polytope and the tangent numbers. We use the constructed formulas to determine the vo...
