Positive higher-order queries
We investigate a higher-order query language that embeds operators of the positive relational algebra within the simply-typed λ-calculus. Our language allows one to succinctly de...

A New Rank Technique for Formula Size Lower Bounds
We exactly determine the formula size of the parity function. If n = 2 + k, where 0 ≤ k < 2 , then the formula size of parity on n bits is 2 (2 + 3k) = n2 + k2 − k2 . Khrap...

Typechecking Top-Down Uniform Unranked Tree Transducers
We investigate the typechecking problem for XML queries: statically verifying that every answer to a query conforms to a given output schema, for inputs satisfying a given input sc...

Lower bounds for predecessor searching in the cell probe model
We consider a fundamental problem in data structures, static predecessor searching: Given a subset S of size n from the universe [m], store S so that queries of the form “What i...

On Using Extended Statistical Queries to Avoid Membership Queries
The Kushilevitz-Mansour (KM) algorithm is an algorithm that finds all the “large” Fourier coefficients of a Boolean function. It is the main tool for learning decision trees ...
