Fugitive-Search Games on Graphs and Related Parameters
The goal of a fugitive-search game on a graph is to trap a fugitive that hides on the vertices of the graph by systematically placing searchers on the vertices. The fugitive is as...

Property Testing Lower Bounds via Communication Complexity
We develop a new technique for proving lower bounds in property testing, by showing a strong connection between testing and communication complexity. We give a simple scheme for r...

Testing Properties of Constraint-Graphs
We study a model of graph related formulae that we call the Constraint-Graph model. A constraintgraph is a labeled multi-graph (a graph where loops and parallel edges are allowed)...

The Complexity of Acyclic Conjunctive Queries
This paper deals with the evaluation of acyclic Boolean conjunctive queries in relational databases. By well-known results of Yannakakis [1981], this problem is solvable in polynom...

Linear Systems over Composite Moduli
We study solution sets to systems of generalized linear equations of the form ℓi(x1, x2, · · · , xn) ∈ Ai (mod m) where ℓ1, . . . , ℓt are linear forms in n Boolean var...
