Graph invariants in the spin model (2009)
Given a symmetric n x n matrix A, we define, for any graph G, f(A)(G) := Sigma(phi:VG ->[1,...,n]) Pi(uv is an element of EG) a(phi(u),phi(v).) We characterize for which graph parameters f there is a...
CUTTING PLANE ALGORITHMS FOR INTEGER PROGRAMMING, (2008)
Cutting Plane Algorithms, M. Jünger, L. Wolsey, A. Schrijver, R. E. Gomory

Tensor subalgebras and First Fundamental Theorems in invariant theory (2008)
Let V be an n-dimensional complex inner product space and let T := T(V) circle times T(V*) be the mixed tensor algebra over V. We characterize those subsets A of T for which there is a subgroup G of...
Graph parameters and semigroup functions (2008)
We prove a general theorem on semigroup functions that implies characterizations of graph partition functions in terms of the positive semidefiniteness (‘reflection positivity’) and rank of...
Reflection positivity, rank connectivity, and homomorphism of graphs (2007)
Freedman, M.H., Lovász, L., Schrijver, A.
Abstract: It is shown that a graph parameter can be realized as the number of homomorphisms into a fixed (weighted) graph if and only if it satisfies two linear algebraic conditions: reflection...
Reduction of symmetric semidefinite programs using the regular *-representation (2007)
Klerk, E. De, Pasechnik, D.V., Schrijver, A.
Abstract We consider semidefinite programming problems on which a permutation group is acting. We describe a general technique to reduce the size of such problems, exploiting the symmetry. The...

Wat kunnen we berekenen? (2006)
Onopgeloste grote vragen zijn de drijfveren voor de wetenschap. Ter gelegenheid van zijn 125-jarig bestaan heeft het tijdschrift Science 125 grote wetenschappelijke mysteries geformuleerd. De K.L....
Abstract: We give a new upper bound on the maximum size $A_q(n,d)$ of a code of word length $n$ and minimum Hamming distance at least $d$ over the alphabet of $q\geq 3$ letters. By...
A rolling stock circulation model for combining and splitting of passenger trains (2006)
Fioole, P.J., Kroon, L.G., Maróti, G., Schrijver, A.
Abstract This paper addresses the railway rolling stock circulation problem. Given the departure and arrival times as well as the expected numbers of passengers, we have to assign the rolling stock...
New limits on fault-tolerant quantum computation (2006)
Buhrman, H.M., Cleve, R., Laurent, M., Linden, N., Schrijver, A., Unger, F.P.
We show that quantum circuits cannot be made fault-tolerant against a depolarizing noise level of approximately 45%, thereby improving on a previous bound of 50% (due to Razborov). Our precise...
Efficient Circulation of Railway Rolling Stock (2006)
Alfieri, A., Groot, R., Kroon, L.G., Schrijver, A.
Railway rolling stock (locomotives, carriages, and train units) is one of the most significant cost sources for operatorsof passenger trains, both public and private. Rolling stock costsare due to...
Operations Research Techniques In Constraint Programming (2005)
Willem Jan Van Hoeve, Academisch Proefschrift, Prof. Dr. A. Schrijver, Dr. M. Laurent, Dr. M. Milano, Dr. L. Torenvliet
this paper a semidefinite relaxation is used rather than a linear relaxation. For some problems, for example for the stable set problem, standard linear relaxations are not very tight and not...

A Note on Packing Connectors (1997)
Given an undirected graph G = (V; E) and a partition fS; Tg of V , an S-T connector is a set of edges F ` E such that every component of the subgraph (V; F ) intersects both S and T . We show that G...
