Abstract In this paper, we study the parameterized complexity of the induced matching problem in hamiltonian bipartite graphs and the inapproximability of the maximum induced matching problem in hamiltonian bipartite graphs. We show that, given a hamiltonian bipartite graph, the induced matching problem is W[1]-hard and cannot be solved in time n o ⁢ ( k ) {n^{o(\sqrt{k})}} , where n is the number of vertices in the graph, unless the 3SAT problem can be solved in subexponential time. In addition, we show that unless NP = P {\operatorname{NP}=\operatorname{P}} , a maximum induced matching in a hamiltonian bipartite graph cannot be approximated within a ratio of n 1 / 4 - ϵ {n^{1/4-\epsilon}} , where n is the number of vertices in the graph.

We give a constructive proof showing that every finitely generated polynomial ideal has a Gröbner basis, provided the ring of coefficients is Noetherian in the sense of Richman and Seidenberg. That is, we give a constructive termination proof for a variant of the well-known algorithm for computing the Gröbner basis. In combination with a purely order-theoretic result we have proved in a separate paper, this yields a unified constructive proof of the Hilbert basis theorem for all Noether classes: if a ring belongs to a Noether class, then so does the polynomial ring. Our proof can be seen as a constructive reworking of one of the classical proofs, in the spirit of the partial realisation of Hilbert's programme in algebra put forward by Coquand and Lombardi. The rings under consideration need not be commutative, but are assumed to be coherent and strongly discrete: that is, they admit a membership test for every finitely generated ideal. As a complement to the proof, we provide a prime decomposition for commutative rings possessing the finite-depth property.

Recently, we showed that the controlled NOT function is a permutation that cannot be inverted in subexponential time in the worst case [Quantum Information Processing. 16:149 (2017)]. Here, we show that such a condition can provoke biased interpretations from Bell’s test experiments.
