Balanced Randomized Tree Splitting with Applications to Evolutionary Tree Constructions
We present a new technique called balanced randomized tree splitting. It is useful in constructing unknown trees recursively. By applying it we obtain two new results on efficient ...

Algebrization: A New Barrier in Complexity Theory
Any proof of P = NP will have to overcome two barriers: relativization and natural proofs. Yet over the last decade, we have seen circuit lower bounds (for example, that PP does n...

On k-optimal distributed constraint optimization algorithms: new bounds and algorithms
Distributed constraint optimization (DCOP) is a promising approach to coordination, scheduling and task allocation in multi agent networks. In large-scale or low-bandwidth network...

Computational Bounds on Hierarchical Data Processing with Applications to Information Security
Motivated by the study of algorithmic problems in the domain of information security, in this paper, we study the complexity of a new class of computations over a collection of va...

A Fault Tolerant Clock Synchronization Algorithm for Systems with Low-Precision Oscillators
In this paper we present a new fault tolerant clock synchronization algorithm called the Fault Tolerant Daisy Chain algorithm. It is intended for internal clock synchronization of...
