Computing with Sequences, Weak Topologies and the Axiom of Choice
We study computability on sequence spaces, as they are used in functional analysis. It is known that non-separable normed spaces cannot be admissibly represented on Turing machines...

Hardness vs. Randomness within Alternating Time
We study the complexity of building pseudorandom generators (PRGs) with logarithmic seed length from hard functions. We show that, starting from a function f : {0, 1}l → {0, 1} ...

Complexity of Approximating Closest Substring Problems
The closest substring problem, where a short string is sought that minimizes the number of mismatches between it and each of a given set of strings, is a minimization problem with ...

Tight information-theoretic lower bounds for welfare maximization in combinatorial auctions
We provide tight information-theoretic lower bounds for the welfare maximization problem in combinatorial auctions. In this problem, the goal is to partition m items among k bidde...

Sampling Bounds for Stochastic Optimization
A large class of stochastic optimization problems can be modeled as minimizing an objective function f that depends on a choice of a vector x ∈ X, as well as on a random external...
