"Balls into Bins" - A Simple and Tight Analysis
Suppose we sequentially throw m balls into n bins. It is a natural question to ask for the maximum number of balls in any bin. In this paper we shall derive sharp upper and lower b...

Codes identifying sets of vertices in random networks
In this paper we deal with codes identifying sets of vertices in random networks; that is, (1, ≤ ℓ)-identifying codes. These codes enable us to detect sets of faulty processor...

Tight Lower Bounds for Certain Parameterized NP-Hard Problems
Based on the framework of parameterized complexity theory, we derive tight lower bounds on the computational complexity for a number of well-known NP-hard problems. We start by pr...

A Multi-Round Communication Lower Bound for Gap Hamming and Some Consequences
—The Gap-Hamming-Distance problem arose in the context of proving space lower bounds for a number of key problems in the data stream model. In this problem, Alice and Bob have to...
