Abstract: g the online version. It is also natural to let m and n grow, since a relatively simple dynamic program solves the case of m  n = O(1) in time poly(p). NP-hardness of maximizing rows cleared. We rst show that maximizing the number of rows cleared while playing the given sequence is NP- complete. Our proof proceeds by a reduction from 3-Partition, in which we are given a set S = fa 1 ; : : : ; a 3s g of integers and a bound T , and asked to partition S into s sets of three numbers each,...
