A new algorithm and improved lower bound for point placement on a line in two rounds
In this paper we show how to construct in 2 rounds a line-rigid point placement graph of size 4n/3+O(1) from small graphs called 6:6 jewels, an extension of the 4:4 jewel of [3]. ...

Improved Lower Bounds on the Randomized Complexity of Graph Properties
We prove a lower bound of (n4/3 log1/3 n) on the randomized decision tree complexity of any nontrivial monotone n-vertex graph property, and of any nontrivial monotone bipartite g...

An Improved Lower Bound for the Complementation of Rabin Automata
Automata on infinite words (ω-automata) have wide applications in formal language theory as well as in modeling and verifying reactive systems. Complementation of ωautomata is ...

Improved Upper Bound for the Redundancy of Fix-Free Codes
A variable-length code is a fix-free code if no codeword is a prefix or a suffix of any other codeword. In a fix-free code any finite sequence of codewords can be decoded in both d...

Improved Bounds for Computing Kemeny Rankings
Voting (or rank aggregation) is a general method for aggregating the preferences of multiple agents. One voting rule of particular interest is the Kemeny rule, which minimizes the...
