Lower and Upper Bounds on FIFO Buffer Management in QoS Switches
We consider FIFO buffer management for switches providing differentiated services. In each time step, an arbitrary number of packets arrive, and only one packet can be sent. The bu...

Tight information-theoretic lower bounds for welfare maximization in combinatorial auctions
We provide tight information-theoretic lower bounds for the welfare maximization problem in combinatorial auctions. In this problem, the goal is to partition m items among k bidde...

Cell-probe lower bounds for the partial match problem
Given a database of n points in {0, 1}d, the partial match problem is: In response to a query x in {0, 1, }d, find a database point y such that for every i whenever xi = , we have...
