A tight lower bound for parity in noisy communication networks
We show a tight lower bound of (N log log N) on the number of transmission required to compute the parity of N bits (with constant error) in a network of N randomly placed sensors...

Optimization of Information Rate Upper and Lower Bounds for Channels with Memory
—We consider the problem of minimizing upper bounds and maximizing lower bounds on information rates of stationary and ergodic discrete-time channels with memory. The channels we...

Finding Lower Bounds for Nondeterministic State Complexity Is Hard
We investigate the following lower bound methods for regular languages: The fooling set technique, the extended fooling set technique, and the biclique edge cover technique. It is ...

Average-case lower bounds for the plurality problem
Given a set of n elements, each of which is colored one of c 2 colors, we must determine an element of the plurality (most frequently occurring) color by pairwise equal/unequal co...

Lower bounds on multiple sequence alignment using exact 3-way alignment
Background: Multiple sequence alignment is fundamental. Exponential growth in computation time appears to be inevitable when an optimal alignment is required for many sequences. E...
