The field of algorithms for pairwisc biosequence similarity search is dominated by heuristic methods of high efficiency but uncertain sensitivity. One reason that more formal stri...
Unique games are constraint satisfaction problems that can be viewed as a generalization of Max-Cut to a larger domain size. The Unique Games Conjecture states that it is hard to ...

We give a 1-pass ~O(m1-2/k )-space algorithm for computing the k-th frequency moment of a data stream for any real k > 2. Together with the lower bounds of [1, 2, 4], this reso...
We show that we can maintain up to polylogarithmic edge connectivity for a fully-dynamic graph in ~O(pn) time per edge insertion or deletion. Within logarithmic factors, this matc...
Abstract In a load balancing network each processor has an initial collection of unit-size jobs, tokens, and in each round, pairs of processors connected by balancers split their l...
