On the Hardness and Smoothed Complexity of Quasi-Concave Minimization
In this paper, we resolve the smoothed and approximative complexity of low-rank quasi-concave minimization, providing both upper and lower bounds. As an upper bound, we provide th...

Designing Efficient Distributed Algorithms Using Sampling Techniques
In this paper we show the power of sampling techniques in designing efficient distributed algorithms. In particular, we show that using sampling techniques, on some networks, sele...

Parallel RAMs with owned global memory and deterministic context-free language recognition
We identify and study a natural and frequently occurring subclass of Concurrent Read, Exclusive Write Parallel Random Access Machines (CREW-PRAMs). Called Concurrent Read, Owner Wr...

Relative-Error CUR Matrix Decompositions
Many data analysis applications deal with large matrices and involve approximating the matrix using a small number of “components.” Typically, these components are linear combi...

Wait-free consensus with infinite arrivals
A randomized algorithm is given that solves the wait-free consensus problem for a shared-memory model with infinitely many processes. The algorithm is based on a weak shared coin ...
