Optimal universal graphs with deterministic embedding
Let H be a finite family of graphs. A graph G is H-universal if it contains a copy of each H H as a subgraph. Let H(k, n) denote the family of graphs on n vertices with maximum d...

Competitive Online Approximation of the Optimal Search Ratio
How efficiently can we search an unknown environment for a goal in unknown position? How much would it help if the environment were known? We answer these questions for simple poly...

On the infinite time solution to state-constrained stochastic optimal control problems
: For an infinite-horizon optimal control problem, the cost does not, in general, converge. The classical work-around to this problem is to introduce a discount or "forgetting...

Optimal Hardness Results for Maximizing Agreements with Monomials
We consider the problem of finding a monomial (or a term) that maximizes the agreement rate with a given set of examples over the Boolean hypercube. The problem is motivated by le...

Spherical Cubes and Rounding in High Dimensions
What is the least surface area of a shape that tiles Rd under translations by Zd ? Any such shape must have volume 1 and hence surface area at least that of the volume-1 ball, nam...
