Correlation Clustering Revisited: The "True" Cost of Error Minimization Problems
Correlation Clustering was defined by Bansal, Blum, and Chawla as the problem of clustering a set of elements based on a possibly inconsistent binary similarity function between e...

Approximability of OFDMA Scheduling
In this paper, we study the complexity and approximability of the orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) scheduling problem with uniformly related communication chan...

Approximate quantiles and the order of the stream
Recently, there has been an increased focus on modeling uncertainty by distributions. Suppose we wish to compute a function of a stream whose elements are samples drawn independen...

Separation and Approximation of Polyhedral Objects
Given a family of disjoint polygons P1, P2, : : :, Pk in the plane, and an integer parameter m, it is NP-complete to decide if the Pi's can be pairwise separated by a polygon...

Lower bounds for distributed markov chain problems
We study the worst-case communication complexity of distributed algorithms computing a path problem based on stationary distributions of random walks in a network G with the caveat...
