A Sequential Decoder for Linear Block Codes with a Variable Bias-Term Metric
—A sequential decoder for linear block codes that performs maximum-likelihood soft-decision decoding is described. The decoder uses a metric computed from a lower bound on the co...

The complexity of the outer face in arrangements of random segments
We investigate the complexity of the outer face in arrangements of line segments of a fixed length in the plane, drawn uniformly at random within a square. We derive upper bounds ...

Near-Optimal Conversion of Hardness into Pseudo-Randomness
Various efforts ([?, ?, ?]) have been made in recent years to derandomize probabilistic algorithms using the complexity theoretic assumption that there exists a problem in E = dti...

Automated mechanism design: complexity results stemming from the single-agent setting
The aggregation of conflicting preferences is a central problem in multiagent systems. The key difficulty is that the agents may report their preferences insincerely. Mechanism ...

On the complexity of the multivariate Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problem
We study the complexity of approximating the smallest eigenvalue of −∆ + q with Dirichlet boundary conditions on the d-dimensional unit cube. Here ∆ is the Laplacian, and th...
