Cluster-Swap: A Distributed K-median Algorithm for Sensor Networks
In building practical sensor networks, it is often beneficial to use only a subset of sensors to take measurements because of computational, communication, and power limitations....

Quantum Complexities of Ordered Searching, Sorting, and Element Distinctness
We consider the quantum complexities of the following three problems: searching an ordered list, sorting an un-ordered list, and deciding whether the numbers in a list are all dis...

Copeland voting: ties matter
We study the complexity of manipulation for a family of election systems derived from Copeland voting via introducing a parameter that describes how ties in head-to-head contests...

The Bayesian Learner is Optimal for Noisy Binary Search (and Pretty Good for Quantum as Well)
We use a Bayesian approach to optimally solve problems in noisy binary search. We deal with two variants: • Each comparison is erroneous with independent probability 1 − p. ...
