On the geometry of graphs with a forbidden minor
We study the topological simplification of graphs via random embeddings, leading ultimately to a reduction of the Gupta-Newman-Rabinovich-Sinclair (GNRS) L1 embedding conjecture t...

Universally utility-maximizing privacy mechanisms
A mechanism for releasing information about a statistical database with sensitive data must resolve a trade-off between utility and privacy. Publishing fully accurate information ...

Improved Inapproximability Results for Maximum k-Colorable Subgraph
We study the maximization version of the fundamental graph coloring problem. Here the goal is to color the vertices of a k-colorable graph with k colors so that a maximum fraction ...

On the Communication Complexity of Read-Once AC^0 Formulae
Abstract--We study the 2-party randomized communication complexity of read-once AC0 formulae. For balanced AND-OR trees T with n inputs and depth d, we show that the communication ...
