Primal-dual meets local search: approximating MST's with nonuniform degree bounds
We present a new bicriteria approximation algorithm for the degree-bounded minimum-cost spanning tree problem: Given an undirected graph with nonnegative edge weights and degree b...

Learning parities in the mistake-bound model
We study the problem of learning parity functions that depend on at most k variables (kparities) attribute-efficiently in the mistake-bound model. We design a simple, deterministi...

The Quantum Adversary Method and Classical Formula Size Lower Bounds
We introduce two new complexity measures for Boolean functions, which we name sumPI and maxPI. The quantity sumPI has been emerging through a line of research on quantum query com...

An improved list decoding algorithm for the second order Reed-Muller codes and its applications
We propose an algorithm which is an improved version of the Kabatiansky-Tavernier list decoding algorithm for the second order binary Reed-Muller code RM(2, m), of length n = 2m , ...

Lower bounds for linear degeneracy testing
Abstract. In the late nineties, Erickson proved a remarkable lower bound on the decision tree complexity of one of the central problems of computational geometry: given n numbers, ...
