Back in the hazy olden days of the pre-2000s, navigating between two locations generally required someone to whip out a paper map and painstakingly figure out the most optimal route between those ...

In algorithms, as in life, negativity can be a drag. Consider the problem of finding the shortest path between two points on a graph — a network of nodes connected by links, or edges. Often, these ...

This paper shows that there is a close relationship between the Euclidean algorithm for polynomials and the Lanczos method for solving sparse linear systems, especially when working over finite fields ...
