A Linear Programming Approach to the Super-Stable Roommates Problem
The stable roommates problem is a non-bipartite version of the well-known stable matching problem. Teo and Sethuraman proved that, for each instance of the stable roommates problem in a complete graph, there exists a linear inequality system such that there exists a feasible solution to this system if and only if there exists a stable matching in the given instance. The aim of this paper is to extend the result of Teo and Sethuraman to the stable roommates problem with ties. More concretely, we…

Online Planning for Cooperative Air-Ground Robot Systems with Unknown Fuel Requirements
We consider an online variant of the fuel-constrained UAV routing problem with a ground-based mobile refueling station (FCURP-MRS), where targets incur unknown fuel costs. We develop a two-phase solution: an offline heuristic-based planner computes initial UAV and UGV paths, and a novel online planning algorithm that dynamically adjusts rendezvous points based on real-time fuel consumption during target processing. Preliminary Gazebo simulations demonstrate the feasibility of our approach in ma…

Multi-Timescale Gradient Sliding for Distributed Optimization
We propose two first-order methods for convex, non-smooth, distributed optimization problems, hereafter called Multi-Timescale Gradient Sliding (MT-GS) and its accelerated variant (AMT-GS). Our MT-GS and AMT-GS can take advantage of similarities between (local) objectives to reduce the communication rounds, are flexible so that different subsets (of agents) can communicate at different, user-picked rates, and are fully deterministic. These three desirable features are achieved through a block-d…

Distilled Large Language Model in Confidential Computing Environment for System-on-Chip Design
Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly used in circuit design tasks and have typically undergone multiple rounds of training. Both the trained models and their associated training data are considered confidential intellectual property (IP) and must be protected from exposure. Confidential Computing offers a promising solution to protect data and models through Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs). However, existing TEE implementations are not designed to support the resource-intensive n…

Controlled manipulation of solitons in a recirculating fiber loop using external potentials
Optical solitons are self-sustained wave packets that propagate without distortion due to a balance between dispersion and nonlinearity. Their unique stability underpins key photonic applications while also playing a central role in nonlinear wave physics. However, real-time control over soliton dynamics in non-dissipative systems remains a major challenge, limiting their practical applications in photonic systems. Here, we introduce a fiber-based platform for soliton manipulation, by creating …
