We consider a model whereby players compete for a set of shared resources to produce and sell substitute products in the same market, which can be viewed as a generalization of the classical Cournot oligopolistic competition model, or, from a different angle, the Wardrop type routing model. In...

We propose in this paper a fixed parameter polynomial algorithm for the cardinality-constrained quadratic optimization problem, which is NP-hard in general. More specifically, we prove that, given a problem of size n (the number of decision variables) and s (the cardinality), if the n−k...
