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...

On space-stretch trade-offs: lower bounds
One of the fundamental trade-offs in compact routing schemes is between the space used to store the routing table on each node and the stretch factor of the routing scheme – th...

On Dynamic Bin Packing: An Improved Lower Bound and Resource Augmentation Analysis
We study the dynamic bin packing problem introduced by Coffman, Garey and Johnson. This problem is a generalization of the bin packing problem in which items may arrive and depart...

Lower Bounds for Maximum Parsimony with Gene Order Data
Abstract. In this paper, we study lower bound techniques for branchand-bound algorithms for maximum parsimony, with a focus on gene order data. We give a simple O(n3 ) time dynamic...

Lower Bounds for Randomized Consensus under a Weak Adversary
This paper studies the inherent trade-off between termination probability and total step complexity of randomized consensus algorithms. It shows that for every integer k, the prob...
