On allocations that maximize fairness
We consider a problem known as the restricted assignment version of the max-min allocation problem with indivisible goods. There are n items of various nonnegative values and m pl...

Point-based policy generation for decentralized POMDPs
Memory-bounded techniques have shown great promise in solving complex multi-agent planning problems modeled as DEC-POMDPs. Much of the performance gains can be attributed to pruni...

The Equivalence of Sampling and Searching
In a sampling problem, we are given an input x {0, 1} n , and asked to sample approximately from a probability distribution Dx over poly (n)-bit strings. In a search problem, we ...

Lattices that admit logarithmic worst-case to average-case connection factors
We demonstrate an average-case problem that is as hard as finding (n)-approximate shortest vectors in certain n-dimensional lattices in the worst case, where (n) = O( log n). The...
