A Lower Bound for the Shortest Path Problem
We show that the Shortest Path Problem cannot be solved in o(log n) time on an unbounded fan-in PRAM without bit operations using poly(n) processors even when the bit-lengths of t...

Non-uniform ACC Circuit Lower Bounds
The class ACC consists of circuit families with constant depth over unbounded fan-in AND, OR, NOT, and MODm gates, where m > 1 is an arbitrary constant. We prove: • NTIME[2n ...

RNA Folding Including Pseudoknots: A New Parameterized Algorithm and Improved Upper Bound
Predicting the secondary structure of an RNA sequence is an important problem in structural bioinformatics. The general RNA folding problem, where the sequence to be folded may con...

Lower bounds for number-in-hand multiparty communication complexity, made easy
In this paper we prove lower bounds on randomized multiparty communication complexity, both in the blackboard model (where each message is written on a blackboard for all players ...

Lower Bounds for Randomized k-Server and Motion Planning Algorithms
In this paper, we prove lower bounds on the competitive ratio of randomized algorithms for two on-line problems: the k-server problem, suggested by [MMS], and an on-line motion-pl...
