### On the complexity of rational verification

Rational verification refers to the problem of checking which temporal logic properties hold of a concurrent/multiagent system, under the assumption that agents in the system choose strategies that form a game theoretic equilibrium. Rational …

### A framework for the generation of complex scenario instances in the Urban Transit Routing Problem

In most urban cities, the correct design of the bus routes network is a critical task to design a successful transportation system. Thus, network designers rely on solving the Urban Transit Routing Problem (UTRP) to find a set of bus routes that …

### On the lengths of tree-like and Dag-like cutting plane refutations of Horn constraint systems

Horn constraint systems and cutting plane refutations

In this paper, we investigate the properties of cutting plane based refutations for a class of integer programs called Horn constraint systems (HCSs). Briefly, a system of linear inequalities A ⋅x ≥b is called a Horn constraint system, if each …
