Linear Level Lasserre Lower Bounds for Certain k-CSPs
We show that for k ≥ 3 even the Ω(n) level of the Lasserre hierarchy cannot disprove a random k-CSP instance over any predicate type implied by k-XOR constraints, for example ...

Almost Tight Upper Bound for Finding Fourier Coefficients of Bounded Pseudo- Boolean Functions
A pseudo-Boolean function is a real-valued function defined on {0, 1}n . A k-bounded function is a pseudo-Boolean function that can be expressed as a sum of subfunctions each of w...

Constructing small sample spaces satisfying given constraints
Abstract. The subject of this paper is nding small sample spaces for joint distributions of n discrete random variables. Such distributions are often only required to obey a certa...

Approximating Node-Connectivity Augmentation Problems
The (undirected) Node Connectivity Augmentation (NCA) problem is: given a graph J = (V, EJ ) and connectivity requirements {r(u, v) : u, v ∈ V }, find a minimum size set I of n...

Combinatorial approach to the interpolation method and scaling limits in sparse random graphs
We establish the existence of free energy limits for several sparse random hypergraph models corresponding to certain combinatorial models on Erd¨os-R´enyi graph G(N, c/N) and r...
