Polynomial Time Approximate Sampler for Discretized Dirichlet Distribution
Abstract. In this paper, we propose a Markov chain for sampling a random vector distributed according to a discretized Dirichlet distribution. We show that our Markov chain is rapi...

Probabilistic Checking of Proofs; A New Characterization of NP
We give a new characterization of NP: the class NP contains exactly those languages L for which membership proofs (a proof that an input x is in L) can be verified probabilisticall...

Approximately Counting Embeddings into Random Graphs
Let H be a graph, and let CH(G) be the number of (subgraph isomorphic) copies of H contained in a graph G. We investigate the fundamental problem of estimating CH(G). Previous res...

Polynomial Deterministic Rendezvous in Arbitrary Graphs
Abstract. The rendezvous problem in graphs has been extensively studied in the literature, mainly using a randomized approach. Two mobile agents have to meet at some node of a conn...
