Elimination Transformations for Associative-Commutative Rewriting Systems
To simplify the task of proving termination and AC-termination of term rewriting systems, elimination transformations have been vigorously studied since the 1990's. Dummy elim...

Nearly Tight Low Stretch Spanning Trees
We prove that any graph G with n points has a distribution T over spanning trees such that for any edge (u, v) the expected stretch ET ∼T [dT (u, v)/dG(u, v)] is bounded by ˜O(...
