A Lower Bound on the Competitive Ratio of Truthful Auctions
We study a class of single-round, sealed-bid auctions for a set of identical items. We adopt the worst case competitive framework defined by [1,2] that compares the profit of an ...

Lower Bounds for Approximation of Some Classes of Lebesgue Measurable Functions by Sigmoidal Neural Networks
We propose a general method for estimating the distance between a compact subspace K of the space L1 ([0, 1]s ) of Lebesgue measurable functions defined on the hypercube [0, 1]s ,...

Improved Lower Bounds on the Randomized Complexity of Graph Properties
We prove a lower bound of (n4/3 log1/3 n) on the randomized decision tree complexity of any nontrivial monotone n-vertex graph property, and of any nontrivial monotone bipartite g...

A lower bound for the tree-width of planar graphs with vital linkages
The disjoint paths problem asks, given an graph G and k + 1 pairs of terminals (s0, t0), . . . , (sk, tk), whether there are k + 1 pairwise disjoint paths P0, . . . , Pk, such tha...

A Lower Bound on the Size of Series-Parallel Graphs Dense in Long Paths
One way to quantify how dense a multidag is in long paths is to find the largest n, m such that whichever n edges are removed, there is still a path from an original input to an ...
