On the Hardness and Smoothed Complexity of Quasi-Concave Minimization
In this paper, we resolve the smoothed and approximative complexity of low-rank quasi-concave minimization, providing both upper and lower bounds. As an upper bound, we provide th...

Maximum Bipartite Flow in Networks with Adaptive Channel Width
Traditionally, combinatorial optimization problems (such as maximum flow, maximum matching, etc.) have been studied for networks where each link has a fixed capacity. Recent resear...

The B-coder: An Improved Binary Arithmetic Coder and Probability Estimator
In this paper we present the B-coder, an efficient binary arithmetic coder that performs extremely well on a wide range of data. The B-coder should be classed as an `approximate&#...

Reducibility among Fractional Stability Problems
— In a landmark paper [32], Papadimitriou introduced a number of syntactic subclasses of TFNP based on proof styles that (unlike TFNP) admit complete problems. A recent series of...
