Effects of Varying the Delay Distribution in Random, Scale-free, and Small-world Networks
Graph-theory-based approaches have been used with great success when analyzing abstract properties of natural and artificial networks. However, these approaches have not factored...

A 2-Source Almost-Extractor for Linear Entropy
We give an explicit construction of a function that is almost a 2-source extractor for linear entropy, it is a condenser where the output has almost full entropy. Given 2 sources w...

Guessing Revisited: A Large Deviations Approach
The problem of guessing a random string is revisited and some prior results on guessing exponents are re-derived using the theory of large deviations. It is shown that if the seque...

Sampling Hypersurfaces through Diffusion
Abstract. We are interested in efficient algorithms for generating random samples from geometric objects such as Riemannian manifolds. As a step in this direction, we consider the ...
