Branching Programs for Tree Evaluation
We introduce the tree evaluation problem, show that it is in LogDCFL (and hence in P), and study its branching program complexity in the hope of eventually proving a superlogarith...

Fractional Pebbling and Thrifty Branching Programs
We study the branching program complexity of the tree evaluation problem, introduced in [BCM+09a] as a candidate for separating NL from LogCFL. The input to the problem is a roote...

Testing Triangle-Freeness in General Graphs
In this paper we consider the problem of testing whether a graph is triangle-free, and more generally, whether it is H-free, for a fixed subgraph H. The algorithm should accept gr...

On optimal slicing of parallel programs
Optimal program slicing determines for a statement S in a program whether or not S affects a specified set of statements, given that all conditionals in are interpreted as non-d...

Computing Sparse Multiples of Polynomials
We consider the problem of finding a sparse multiple of a polynomial. Given f F[x] of degree d, and a desired sparsity t, our goal is to determine if there exists a multiple h F[...
