The Complexity of the Nucleolus in Compact Games

TL;DR: The complexity of the nucleolus is characterized by exhibiting an upper bound that holds on any class of compact games, and by showing that this bound is tight even on the (structurally simple) class of graph games.

On numerical stability in large scale linear algebraic computations : Plenary lecture presented at the 75th annual GAMM conference, Dresden/Germany, 22-26 march 2004

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider numerical stability of iterative methods in matrix computations and present some examples of rounding error analysis that are fundamental to justify numerically computed results, including the Lanczos method, the conjugate gradient (CG) method and the generalised minimal residual (GMRES) method.

How Many Bits Does It Take to Track an Open Quantum System

TL;DR: It is shown that, for any ergodic master equation, one can expect to find an adaptive monitoring scheme on the bath that can confine the system state to jumping between only K states, for some K ≥ (D - 1)(2) + 1.

Solving SDP Completely with an Interior Point Oracle

TL;DR: In this paper, the existence of an oracle which solves any semidefinite programming (SDP) problem satisfying Slater's condition simultaneously at its primal and dual sides is considered. But the problem is not solved, since the oracle might not be able to directly solve general SDPs even after certain regularization schemes are applied.

The complexity of theorem-proving procedures

TL;DR: It is shown that any recognition problem solved by a polynomial time-bounded nondeterministic Turing machine can be “reduced” to the problem of determining whether a given propositional formula is a tautology.
