Lower Bounds for Dynamic Algorithms
We study the complexity of the dynamic partial sum problem in the cell-probe model. We give the model access to nondeterministic queries and prove that the problem remains hard. We...

Optimal Lower Bounds on Regular Expression Size Using Communication Complexity
The problem of converting deterministic finite automata into (short) regular expressions is considered. It is known that the required expression size is 2(n) in the worst case for ...

Hardness Hypotheses, Derandomization, and Circuit Complexity
We consider hypotheses about nondeterministic computation that have been studied in different contexts and shown to have interesting consequences: • The measure hypothesis: NP d...

On the Complexity of Hardness Amplification
We study the task of transforming a hard function f, with which any small circuit disagrees on (1 - )/2 fraction of the input, into a harder function f , with which any small circ...

The Complexity of Decentralized Control of Markov Decision Processes
We consider decentralized control of Markov decision processes and give complexity bounds on the worst-case running time for algorithms that find optimal solutions. Generalization...
