Tight information-theoretic lower bounds for welfare maximization in combinatorial auctions
We provide tight information-theoretic lower bounds for the welfare maximization problem in combinatorial auctions. In this problem, the goal is to partition m items among k bidde...

On probabilistic analysis of randomization in hybrid symbolic-numeric algorithms
Algebraic randomization techniques can be applied to hybrid symbolic-numeric algorithms. Here we consider the problem of interpolating a sparse rational function from noisy values...

Resource Control for Synchronous Cooperative Threads
We develop new methods to statically bound the resources needed for the execution of systems of concurrent, interactive threads. Our study is concerned with a synchronous model of ...
