We address the issue of inapproximability of the wavelength assignment problem in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) optical networks. We prove that in an n-node WDM optical ne...
The number of applications in computer vision that model higher-order interactions has exploded over the last few years. The standard technique for solving such problems is to red...
We investigate methods for providing easy-to-check proofs of computational effort. Originally intended for discouraging spam, the concept has wide applicability as a method for co...
We study a natural network creation game, in which each node locally tries to minimize its local diameter or its local average distance to other nodes, by swapping one incident ed...

In this paper we study the degree of non-constant symmetric functions f : {0, 1}n → {0, 1, . . . , c}, where c ∈ N, when represented as polynomials over the real numbers. We s...
