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...

Hardness of Directed Routing with Congestion
Given a graph G and a collection of source-sink pairs in G, what is the least integer c such that each source can be connected by a path to its sink, with at most c paths going th...

Hardness of routing with congestion in directed graphs
Given as input a directed graph on N vertices and a set of source-destination pairs, we study the problem of routing the maximum possible number of source-destination pairs on pat...
