FO Value Discovery and Partial Vertex Cover Discovery

Enna Gerhard, Stephanie Maaz, Pascale Schott +2

We study solution discovery in the token-sliding model from a logical and cost-value optimization perspective. In solution discovery, we are given a graph, an initial placement of…

Separating Feasibility and Movement in Solution Discovery: The Case of Path Discovery

Hanno von Bergen, Larissa Fastenau, Enna Gerhard +8

We study solution discovery, where the goal is to obtain a feasible solution to a problem from an initial configuration by a bounded sequence of local moves. In many applications,…

On Algorithmic Meta-Theorems for Solution Discovery: Tractability and Barriers

Nicolas Bousquet, Amer E. Mouawad, Stephanie Maaz +2

Solution discovery asks whether a given (infeasible) starting configuration to a problem can be transformed into a feasible solution using a limited number of transformation steps.…

Efficient algorithms to solve atom reconfiguration problems. II. The assignment-rerouting-ordering (aro) algorithm

Remy El Sabeh, Jessica Bohm, Zhiqian Ding +5

Programmable arrays of optical traps enable the assembly of configurations of single atoms to perform controlled experiments on quantum many-body systems. Finding the sequence of c…

Efficient algorithms to solve atom reconfiguration problems. I. The redistribution-reconfiguration (red-rec) algorithm

Barry Cimring, Remy El Sabeh, Marc Bacvanski +5

We propose the redistribution-reconfiguration (red-rec) algorithm to prepare large configurations of atoms using arrays of dynamic optical traps. Red-rec exploits simple heuristics…
