Zile Jiang: Computing Better Approximate Pure Nash Equilibria in Cut Games via Semidefinite Programming
Speaker: Zhile jiang (Aarhus University) Time: 16:20-17:20 (Time in Beijing) November 10, 2023 (Friday) Venue: 518, Research Building 4 Abstract: Cut games are among the most fundamental strategic games in algorithmic game theory. It is well-known that computing an exact pure Nash equilibrium in these games is PLS-hard, so research has focused on computing approximate […]

Huairui Chu: FPT Approximation Using Treewidth
Speaker: Huairui Chu (Nanjing University ) Time: 16:00-17:00 (Time in Beijing) October 25, 2023 (Wednesday) Venue: 518, Research Building 4 Abstract: Treewidth is a useful tool in designing graph algorithms. Although many NP-hard graph problems can be solved in linear time when the input graphs have small treewidth, there are problems which remain hard on […]

Pengpeng Wang: 基于树割映射的网络健壮性增强算法
Speaker: Pengpeng Wang（Henan University of Technology) Time: 16:20-17:20 (Time in Beijing) September 15, 2023 (Friday) Venue: 518, Research Building 4 Abstract: 在大型稀疏网络中，少数几条边的随机故障可能导致网络断开，为了提高网络健壮性，可以选择性的保护特定边从而使整个网络的连通性保持到一定水平，然而资源总是有限的，不可能保护所有的边。我们设计了一种快速的算法，即通过深度遍历树快速定位到较小的割，并对这些割的边进行有选择性的保护，从而提高网络健壮性，传统算法利用线性规划，时间较慢，并且不能适用于大型网络，实验表明我们的算法能够抵御 99.99%的随机故障，有较好的加速效果。 Speaker Bio: 汪鹏鹏现就读于河南工业大学信息科学与工程学院，研究方向为最小割，网络健壮性，稀疏割算法等。

Yan Gu:Introduction to Parallel Algorithms
Speaker: Yan Gu（University of California, Riverside) Time: 10:20-11:20 (Time in Beijing) September 8, 2023 (Friday) Venue: 518, Research Building 4 Abstract: Parallel processors are ubiquitous nowadays and it is almost impossible to find a single-core processor, probably other than a toaster. However, very few courses and online materials cover the basic knowledge for designing parallel […]
