Bounding the Vapnik-Chervonenkis Dimension of Concept Classes Parameterized by Real Numbers
The Vapnik-Chervonenkis (V-C) dimension is an important combinatorial tool in the analysis of learning problems in the PAC framework. For polynomial learnability, we seek upper bou...

New Bounds for the Controller Problem
The (M, W)-controller, originally studied by Afek, Awerbuch, Plotkin, and Saks, is a basic ted tool that provides an abstraction for managing the consumption of a global resource ...

Inequalities for the curvature of curves and surfaces
In this paper, we bound the difference between the total mean curvatures of two closed surfaces in R3 in terms of their total absolute curvatures and the Fr´echet distance betwee...

Approximation Schemes for Steiner Forest on Planar Graphs and Graphs of Bounded Treewidth
We give the first polynomial-time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the Steiner forest problem on planar graphs and, more generally, on graphs of bounded genus. As a first step, w...

On the Complexity of Constant Propagation
Constant propagation (CP) is one of the most widely used optimizations in practice (cf. [9]). Intuitively, it addresses the problem of statically detecting whether an expression al...
