Lower Bounds on the Loading of Degree-2 Multiple Bus Networks for Binary-Tree Algorithms
A binary-tree algorithm, Bin(n), proceeds level-bylevel from the leaves of a 2n -leaf balanced binary tree to its root. This paper deals with running binary-tree algorithms on mul...

Lower bounds for graph embeddings and combinatorial preconditioners
Given a general graph G, a fundamental problem is to find a spanning tree H that best approximates G by some measure. Often this measure is some combination of the congestion and...

Unconditional lower bounds for learning intersections of halfspaces
We prove new lower bounds for learning intersections of halfspaces, one of the most important concept classes in computational learning theory. Our main result is that any statist...

Parallel Randomized Load Balancing: A Lower Bound for a More General Model
We extend the lower bound of Adler et. al [1] and Berenbrink [3] for parallel randomized load balancing algorithms. The setting in these asynchronous and distributed algorithms is...

Lower bounds for expected-case planar point location
Given a planar polygonal subdivision S, the point location problem is to preprocess S into a data structure so that the cell of the subdivision that contains a given query point c...
