From Interval Computations to Constraint-Related Set Computations: Towards Faster Estimation of Statistics and ODEs under Interv
Interval computations estimate the uncertainty of the result of data processing in situations in which we only know the upper bounds ∆ on the measurement errors. In this case, ba...

On the (Im)possibility of Basing Oblivious Transfer and Bit Commitment on Weakened Security Assumptions
We consider the problem of basing Oblivious Transfer (OT) and Bit Commitment (BC), with information theoretic security, on seemingly weaker primitives. We introduce a general model...

Guard placement for efficient point-in-polygon proofs
We consider the problem of placing a small number of angle guards inside a simple polygon P so as to provide efficient proofs that any given point is inside P. Each angle guard vi...

Online Algorithms to Minimize Resource Reallocations and Network Communication
Abstract. In this paper, we consider two new online optimization problems (each with several variants), present similar online algorithms for both, and show that one reduces to the...
