In theory, it cannot be ruled out that the algorithms might run for longer than the age of the universe. But in practice, ...

They presented it in June at the ACM Symposium on Theory of Computing, where they detailed an exponentially better method for checking whether a graph is planar. “The new algorithm is a remarkable ...

or the A* graph traversal algorithm is used, but the reality is that although these pure graph theory algorithms are decidedly influential, they cannot be applied verbatim to the reality of graph ...

That would be the most interesting possibility, Trevisan said, since it would make graph isomorphism the first natural problem to have a quasi-polynomial algorithm but no polynomial algorithm. “It ...

An innovative approach to solving a stubborn, but elementary, question in graph theory — the mathematical ... often study the complexity of an algorithm: how long it takes the algorithm to ...

A new algorithm efficiently solves the graph isomorphism problem, computer scientist László Babai announced November 10 at a Combinatorics and Theoretical Computer Science seminar at the ...
