Professor Uehara from JAIST works at the intersection of theoretical computer science, discrete mathematics, and the art of solving puzzles. His research strives to understand the computational ...

Quantum walks sound abstract, but they sit at the center of a very concrete race: who will harness quantum mechanics to solve ...

Discrete combinatorial optimization has a central role in many scientific disciplines, however, for hard problems we lack linear time algorithms that would allow us to solve very large instances.

I study the speed with which finite Markov chains approach their stationary distribution. Recent work has focused on the analysis of two early birthday attacks on problems related to cryptography: ...

Every online bank transfer, private message and Bitcoin transaction rests on the assumption that some math problems are ...
