Notes for Lecture 2
Notes on Complexity Theory Last updated: December, 2011 Lecture 2 Jonathan Katz 1 Review The running time of a Turing machine M on input x is the number of \steps" M takes before it halts. Machine M is said to run in time T (¢) if for every input x the running time of M(x) is at most T (jxj). (In particular, this means it halts on all inputs.) The space used by M on input x is the number of cells written to by M on all its work tapes1 (a cell that is written to multiple times is only counted once); M is said to use space T (¢) if for every input x the space used during the computation of M(x) is at most T (jxj). We remark that these time and space measures are worst-case notions; i.e., even if M runs in time T (n) for only a fraction of the inputs of length n (and uses less time for all other inputs of length n), the running time of M is still T . (Average-case notions of complexity have also been considered, but are somewhat more di±cult to reason about. We may cover this later in the semester; or see [1, Chap. 18].) Recall that a Turing machine M computes a function f : f0; 1g¤ ! f0; 1g¤ if M(x) = f(x) for all x. We will focus most of our attention on boolean functions, a context in which it is more convenient to phrase computation in terms of languages. A language is simply a subset of f0; 1g¤. -

In the rst round, Spoiler makes a counting move in G by marking all vertices in all A-components. Duplicator is forced to mark at least one vertex v in a B-component of H. Spoiler pebbles v, and Duplicator can only pebble some vertex u in an A-component of G. From now on, Spoiler plays in the components that contain u and v using his winning strategy for the game on A and B. -
Network Analysis of the Multimodal Freight Transportation System in New York City
Network Analysis of the Multimodal Freight Transportation System in New York City Project Number: 15 – 2.1b Year: 2015 FINAL REPORT June 2018 Principal Investigator Qian Wang Researcher Shuai Tang MetroFreight Center of Excellence University at Buffalo Buffalo, NY 14260-4300 Network Analysis of the Multimodal Freight Transportation System in New York City ABSTRACT The research is aimed at examining the multimodal freight transportation network in the New York metropolitan region to identify critical links, nodes and terminals that affect last-mile deliveries. Two types of analysis were conducted to gain a big picture of the region’s freight transportation network. First, three categories of network measures were generated for the highway network that carries the majority of last-mile deliveries. They are the descriptive measures that demonstrate the basic characteristics of the highway network, the network structure measures that quantify the connectivity of nodes and links, and the accessibility indices that measure the ease to access freight demand, services and activities. Second, 71 multimodal freight terminals were selected and evaluated in terms of their accessibility to major multimodal freight demand generators such as warehousing establishments. As found, the most important highways nodes that are critical in terms of connectivity and accessibility are those in and around Manhattan, particularly the bridges and tunnels connecting Manhattan to neighboring areas. Major multimodal freight demand generators, such as warehousing establishments, have better accessibility to railroad and marine port terminals than air and truck terminals in general. The network measures and findings in the research can be used to understand the inventory of the freight network in the system and to conduct freight travel demand forecasting analysis. -

Well its a PDF version of the website www.ComplexityZoo.com typeset in LATEX using the complexity package. Well, what’s that? The original Complexity Zoo is a website created by Scott Aaronson which contains a (more or less) comprehensive list of Complexity Classes studied in the area of theoretical computer science known as Computa- tional Complexity. I took on the (mostly painless, thank god for regular expressions) task of translating the Zoo’s HTML code to LATEX for two reasons. First, as a regular Zoo patron, I thought, “what better way to honor such an endeavor than to spruce up the cages a bit and typeset them all in beautiful LATEX.” Second, I thought it would be a perfect project to develop complexity, a LATEX pack- age I’ve created that defines commands to typeset (almost) all of the complexity classes you’ll find here (along with some handy options that allow you to conveniently change the fonts with a single option parameters).

Monte-Carlo Algorithms in Graph Isomorphism Testing
Monte-Carlo algorithms in graph isomorphism testing L´aszl´oBabai∗ E¨otv¨osUniversity, Budapest, Hungary Universit´ede Montr´eal,Canada Abstract Abstract. We present an O(V 4 log V ) coin flipping algorithm to test vertex-colored graphs with bounded color multiplicities for color-preserving isomorphism. We are also able to generate uniformly distributed ran- dom automorphisms of such graphs. A more general result finds gener- ators for the intersection of cylindric subgroups of a direct product of groups in O(n7/2 log n) time, where n is the length of the input string. This result will be applied in another paper to find a polynomial time coin flipping algorithm to test isomorphism of graphs with bounded eigenvalue multiplicities. The most general result says that if AutX is accessible by a chain G0 ≥ · · · ≥ Gk = AutX of quickly recognizable groups such that the indices |Gi−1 : Gi| are small (but unknown), the order of |G0| is known and there is a fast way of generating uniformly distributed random members of G0 then a set of generators of AutX can be found by a fast algorithm. Applications of the main result im- prove the complexity of isomorphism testing for graphs with bounded valences to exp(n1/2+o(1)) and for distributive lattices to O(n6 log log n). ∗Apart from possible typos, this is a verbatim transcript of the author’s 1979 technical report, “Monte Carlo algorithms in graph isomorphism testing” (Universit´ede Montr´eal, D.M.S. No. 79-10), with two footnotes added to correct a typo and a glaring omission in the original. -

Maximum and Minimum Degree in Iterated Line Graphs by Manu
Maximum and minimum degree in iterated line graphs by Manu Aggarwal A thesis submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science Auburn, Alabama August 3, 2013 Keywords: iterated line graphs, maximum degree, minimum degree Approved by Dean Hoffman, Professor of Mathematics Chris Rodger, Professor of Mathematics Andras Bezdek, Professor of Mathematics Narendra Govil, Professor of Mathematics Abstract In this thesis we analyze two papers, both by Dr.Stephen G. Hartke and Dr.Aparna W. Higginson, on maximum [2] and minimum [3] degrees of a graph G under iterated line graph operations. Let ∆k and δk denote the minimum and the maximum degrees, respectively, of the kth iterated line graph Lk(G). It is shown that if G is not a path, then, there exist integers A and B such that for all k > A, ∆k+1 = 2∆k − 2 and for all k > B, δk+1 = 2δk − 2. ii Table of Contents Abstract . ii List of Figures . iv 1 Introduction . .1 2 An elementary result . .3 3 Maximum degree growth in iterated line graphs . 10 4 Minimum degree growth in iterated line graphs . 26 5 A puzzle . 45 Bibliography . 46 iii List of Figures 1.1 ............................................1 2.1 ............................................4 2.2 : Disappearing vertex of degree two . .5 2.3 : Disappearing leaf . .7 3.1 ............................................ 11 3.2 ............................................ 12 3.3 ............................................ 13 3.4 ............................................ 14 3.5 ............................................ 15 3.6 : When CD is not a single vertex . 17 3.7 : When CD is a single vertex . 18 4.1 ........................................... -
Degrees & Isomorphism: Chapter 11.1 – 11.4
“mcs” — 2015/5/18 — 1:43 — page 393 — #401 11 Simple Graphs Simple graphs model relationships that are symmetric, meaning that the relationship is mutual. Examples of such mutual relationships are being married, speaking the same language, not speaking the same language, occurring during overlapping time intervals, or being connected by a conducting wire. They come up in all sorts of applications, including scheduling, constraint satisfaction, computer graphics, and communications, but we’ll start with an application designed to get your attention: we are going to make a professional inquiry into sexual behavior. Specifically, we’ll look at some data about who, on average, has more opposite-gender partners: men or women. Sexual demographics have been the subject of many studies. In one of the largest, researchers from the University of Chicago interviewed a random sample of 2500 people over several years to try to get an answer to this question. Their study, published in 1994 and entitled The Social Organization of Sexuality, found that men have on average 74% more opposite-gender partners than women. Other studies have found that the disparity is even larger. In particular, ABC News claimed that the average man has 20 partners over his lifetime, and the av- erage woman has 6, for a percentage disparity of 233%. The ABC News study, aired on Primetime Live in 2004, purported to be one of the most scientific ever done, with only a 2.5% margin of error. It was called “American Sex Survey: A peek between the sheets”—raising some questions about the seriousness of their reporting. -
