Bidimensionality and Kernels
Bidimensionality theory appears to be a powerful framework in the development of meta-algorithmic techniques. It was introduced by Demaine et al. [J. ACM 2005 ] as a tool to obtai...

Worst-Case to Average-Case Reductions Based on Gaussian Measures
We show that finding small solutions to random modular linear equations is at least as hard as approximating several lattice problems in the worst case within a factor almost line...

Integrality gaps for Sherali-Adams relaxations
We prove strong lower bounds on integrality gaps of Sherali?Adams relaxations for MAX CUT, Vertex Cover, Sparsest Cut and other problems. Our constructions show gaps for Sherali?A...
