We examine the problem of minimizing feedbacks in reliable wireless broadcasting, by pairing rateless coding with extreme value theory. Our key observation is that, in a broadcast ...

The Colorful Motif problem asks if, given a vertex-colored graph G, there exists a subset S of vertices of G such that the graph induced by G on S is connected and contains every c...

We consider a finite-state memoryless channel with i.i.d. channel state and the input Markov process supported on a mixing finite-type constraint. We discuss the asymptotic behavio...
We localize and strengthen Katona’s idea of an edge-toughness to a local topological toughness. We disprove a conjecture of Katona concerning the connection between edgetoughnes...
One of the most fundamental problems in web search is how to re-rank result web pages based on user logs. Most traditional models for re-ranking assume each query has a single int...
