Pathwidth of Circular-Arc Graphs
The pathwidth of a graph G is the minimum clique number of H minus one, over all interval supergraphs H of G. Although pathwidth is a well-known and well-studied graph parameter, t...

Fixed-Parameter Algorithms for Cochromatic Number and Disjoint Rectangle Stabbing
Given a permutation π of {1, . . . , n} and a positive integer k, we give an algorithm with running time 2O(k2 log k) nO(1) that decides whether π can be partitioned into at mos...

Testing k-wise and almost k-wise independence
In this work, we consider the problems of testing whether a distribution over {0, 1}n is k-wise (resp. ( , k)-wise) independent using samples drawn from that distribution. For the...

Covering and Packing in Linear Space
Abstract. Given a family of subsets of an n-element universe, the kcover problem asks whether there are k sets in the family whose union contains the universe; in the k-packing pro...

Small Clique Detection and Approximate Nash Equilibria
Recently, Hazan and Krauthgamer showed [12] that if, for a fixed small ε, an ε-best ε-approximate Nash equilibrium can be found in polynomial time in two-player games, then it ...
