Lower Bounds on Streaming Algorithms for Approximating the Length of the Longest Increasing Subsequence
We show that any deterministic data-stream algorithm that makes a constant number of passes over the input and gives a constant factor approximation of the length of the longest i...

An Exponential Lower Bound for the Parity Game Strategy Improvement Algorithm as We Know it
This paper presents a new lower bound for the discrete strategy improvement algorithm for solving parity games due to V¨oge and Jurdzi´nski. First, we informally show which stru...
