Estimating Bounds on Expected Plateau Size in MAXSAT Problems
Stochastic local search algorithms can now successfully solve MAXSAT problems with thousands of variables or more. A key to this success is how effectively the search can navigate...

Upper Bounds for Maximally Greedy Binary Search Trees
At SODA 2009, Demaine et al. presented a novel connection between binary search trees (BSTs) and subsets of points on the plane. This connection was independently discovered by Der...

Quantum Lower Bound for Recursive Fourier Sampling
One of the earliest quantum algorithms was discovered by Bernstein and Vazirani, for a problem called Recursive Fourier Sampling. This paper shows that the Bernstein-Vazirani algo...
