We calculate the generating functions for the number of tilings of rectangles of various widths by the right tromino …, the L tetromino, and the T tetromino. This allows us to place lower bounds on the entropy of tilings of the plane by each …

It is well-known that the question of whether a given finite region can be tiled with a given set of tiles is NP-complete. We show that the same is true for the right tromino and square tetromino on the square lattice, or for the right tromino alone. In the process, we show tthat Monotone 1-in-3...

Quantum computing was so far mainly concerned with discrete problems. Recently, Novak and the author studied quantum algorithms for high dimensional integration and dealt with the question, what advantages quantum computing can bring over classical deterministic or randomized methods for this...

The stochastic method used to simulate the stationary transport in semiconductor devices is revised in terms of the numerical Monte Carlo theory. A mathematically based approach has been used to derive the basic simulation algorithms, previously devised from physical considerations. The approach...

We consider the convergency of the basic Monte Carlo (MC) algorithms for solving the Boltzmann transport equation (BTE). It is a linear kinetic equation describing a broad class of particle transport phenomena such as electron and neutron transport, radiative transfer, medium energy electron and...

We present applications of a new Monte Carlo algorithm for the calculation of excited state energies of multi-dimensional quantum systems. The method relies on computation of imaginary time correlation functions of appropriately chosen projection operators, followed by a numerical inverse...

In this paper, we consider Monte Carlo (MC) algorithms based on the use of the resolvent matrix for solving linear algebraic problems. Estimates for the speedup and efficiency of the algorithms are presented. Some numerical examples performed on cluster of workstations using MPI are given.

Generally we can distinguish between two types of comparative statics problems that have been approached with lattice programming methods. The first type of problem considers the change of the optimal solution to a maximization problem as the objective function changes, the other type the change...
