Cell-probe lower bounds for the partial match problem
Given a database of n points in {0, 1}d, the partial match problem is: In response to a query x in {0, 1, }d, find a database point y such that for every i whenever xi = , we have...

The Maximum Communication Complexity of Multi-Party Pointer Jumping
—We study the one-way number-on-the-forhead (NOF) communication complexity of the k-layer pointer jumping problem. Strong lower bounds for this problem would have important impli...

A Geometric Approach to Lower Bounds for Approximate Near-Neighbor Search and Partial Match
This work investigates a geometric approach to proving cell probe lower bounds for data structure problems. We consider the approximate nearest neighbor search problem on the Bool...

Contraction and Treewidth Lower Bounds
Edge contraction is shown to be a useful mechanism to improve lower bound heuristics for treewidth. A successful lower bound for treewidth is the degeneracy: the maximum over all ...

Dispersion of Mass and the Complexity of Randomized Geometric Algorithms
How much can randomness help computation? Motivated by this general question and by volume computation, one of the few instances where randomness provably helps, we analyze a noti...
