Quantum Separation of Local Search and Fixed Point Computation
In this paper, we give a lower bound of (n(d-1)/2 ) on the quantum query complexity for finding a fixed point of a discrete Brouwer function over grid [1 : n]d . Our bound is near...

Randomized algorithms for tracking distributed count, frequencies, and ranks
We show that randomization can lead to significant improvements for a few fundamental problems in distributed tracking. Our basis is the count-tracking problem, where there are k...

Communication Complexity with Synchronized Clocks
Abstract—We consider two natural extensions of the communication complexity model that are inspired by distributed computing. In both models, two parties are equipped with synchr...

Propositional Dynamic Logic with Recursive Programs
We extend the propositional dynamic logic PDL of Fischer and Ladner with a restricted kind of recursive programs using the formalism of visibly pushdown automata (Alur, Madhusudan...

Near-Optimal Conversion of Hardness into Pseudo-Randomness
Various efforts ([?, ?, ?]) have been made in recent years to derandomize probabilistic algorithms using the complexity theoretic assumption that there exists a problem in E = dti...
