Lower Bounds Using Kolmogorov Complexity
Abstract. In this paper, we survey a few recent applications of Kolmogorov complexity to lower bounds in several models of computation. We consider KI complexity of Boolean functio...

Lower Bounds for Noisy Wireless Networks using Sampling Algorithms
We show a tight lower bound of Ω(N log log N) on the number of transmissions required to compute several functions (including the parity function and the majority function) in a...

Submodular Approximation: Sampling-based Algorithms and Lower Bounds
We introduce several generalizations of classical computer science problems obtained by replacing simpler objective functions with general submodular functions. The new problems i...

Distribution-Free Testing Lower Bounds for Basic Boolean Functions
: In the distribution-free property testing model, the distance between functions is measured with respect to an arbitrary and unknown probability distribution D over the input dom...
