Random preorders and alignments
A preorder consists of linearly ordered equivalence classes called blocks, and an alignment is a sequence of cycles on n labelled elements. We investigate the block structure of a...

Randomly Sampling Molecules
We give a polynomial-time algorithm for the following problem: Given a degree sequence in which each degree is bounded from above by a constant, select, uniformly at random, an un...

CSAR: A Practical and Provable Technique to Make Randomized Systems Accountable
We describe CSAR, a novel technique for generating cryptographically strong, accountable randomness. Using CSAR, we can generate a pseudo-random sequence and a proof that the elem...

Random 2-SAT with Prescribed Literal Degrees
Two classic “phase transitions” in discrete mathematics are the emergence of a giant component in a random graph as the density of edges increases, and the transition of a rand...

Simple Compression Code Supporting Random Access and Fast String Matching
Given a sequence S of n symbols over some alphabet Σ, we develop a new compression method that is (i) very simple to implement; (ii) provides O(1) time random access to any symbol...
