Skewed distributions appear very often in practice. Unfortunately, the traditional Zipf distribution often fails to model them well. In this paper, we propose a new probability di...
Motivated by the capabilities of modern storage architectures, we consider the following generalization of the data stream model where the algorithm has sequential access to multi...
This paper provides the first explicit construction of extractors which are simultaneously optimal up to constant factors in both seed length and output length. More precisely, fo...
