Combinatorial RNA Design: Designability and Structure-Approximating Algorithm

In this work, we consider the Combinatorial RNA Design problem, a minimal instance of the RNA design problem in which one must return an RNA sequence that admits a given secondary structure as its unique base pair maximizing structure.
