An optimal randomized algorithm for maximum Tukey depth
We present the first optimal algorithm to compute the maximum Tukey depth (also known as location or halfspace depth) for a non-degenerate point set in the plane. The algorithm is...

Complexity of Boolean Functions on PRAMs - Lower Bound Techniques
Determining time necessary for computing important functions on parallel machines is one of the most important problems in complexity theory for parallel algorithms. Recently, a s...

Lower Bounds for Local Monotonicity Reconstruction from Transitive-Closure Spanners
Abstract. Given a directed graph G = (V, E) and an integer k 1, a ktransitive-closure-spanner (k-TC-spanner) of G is a directed graph H = (V, EH ) that has (1) the same transitive...

Bounds for Functions of Dependent Risks
Abstract The problem of finding the best-possible lower bound on the distribution of a non-decreasing function of n dependent risks is solved when n = 2 and a lower bound on the co...

The average-case complexity of counting distinct elements
We continue the study of approximating the number of distinct elements in a data stream of length n to within a (1? ) factor. It is known that if the stream may consist of arbitra...
