Communication Complexity and Its Applications
Here we prove an asymptotically optimal lower bound on the information complexity of the k-party disjointness function with the unique intersection promise, an important special ca...

An Improved Algorithm for Online Unit Clustering
Abstract. We revisit the online unit clustering problem in one dimension which we recently introduced at WAOA'06: given a sequence of n points on the line, the objective is to...

Improved bounds for cops-and-robber pursuit
We prove that n cops can capture (that is, some cop can get less than unit distance from) a robber in a continuous square region with side length less than √ 5n and hence that n/...

Active Tuples-based Scheme for Bounding Posterior Beliefs
The paper presents a scheme for computing lower and upper bounds on the posterior marginals in Bayesian networks with discrete variables. Its power lies in its ability to use any ...

The DMM bound: multivariate (aggregate) separation bounds
In this paper we derive aggregate separation bounds, named after Davenport-MahlerMignotte (DMM), on the isolated roots of polynomial systems, specifically on the minimum distance ...
