Estimating the Average of a Lipschitz-Continuous Function from One Sample
We study the problem of estimating the average of a Lipschitz continuous function f defined over a metric space, by querying f at only a single point. More specifically, we explore...

Load balancing and orientability thresholds for random hypergraphs
Let h > w > 0 be two fixed integers. Let H be a random hypergraph whose hyperedges are uniformly of size h. To w-orient a hyperedge, we assign exactly w of its vertices posi...
