Voter control problems model situations in which an external agent tries to affect the result of an election by adding or deleting the fewest number of voters. The goal of the agent is to make a specific candidate either win (constructive control) or lose (destructive control) the election. We study the constructive and destructive voter control problems when adding and deleting voters have a c...

We study the parameterized control complexity of fallback voting, a voting system that combines preference-based with approval voting. Electoral control is one of many different ways for an external agent to tamper with the outcome of an election. We show that adding and deleting candidates in fallback voting are W[2]-hard for both the constructive and destructive case, parameterized by the amo...

Destructive quantum interference has been shown to strongly reduce charge tunneling rates across molecular bridges. The current consensus is that destructive quantum interference occurs in cross-conjugated molecules, while linearly conjugated molecules exhibit constructive interference. Our experimental results on photoinduced charge transfer in donor-bridge-acceptor systems, however, show that...
