Extracting Randomness from Samplable Distributions
Randomness extractors convert weak sources of randomness into an almost uniform distribution; the conversion uses a small amount of pure randomness. In algorithmic applications, t...

Exact Pareto-Optimal Coordination of Two Translating Polygonal Robots on a Cyclic Roadmap
We consider planning optimal collision-free motions of two polygonal robots under translation. Each robot has a reference point that must lie on a given graph, called a roadmap, w...

The elementary computable functions over the real numbers: applying two new techniques
The basic motivation behind this work is to tie together various computational complexity classes, whether over different domains such as the naturals or the reals, or whether def...

On First-Order Fragments for Mazurkiewicz Traces
Mazurkiewicz traces form a model for concurrency. Temporal logic st-order logic are important tools in order to deal with the abstract behavior of such systems. Since typical prop...
