Algorithmic Lower Bounds for Problems Parameterized by Clique-width
Many NP-hard problems can be solved efficiently when the input is restricted to graphs of bounded tree-width or clique-width. In particular, by the celebrated result of Courcelle,...

Online Interval Scheduling: Randomized and Multiprocessor Cases
We consider the problem of scheduling a set of equal-length intervals arriving online, where each interval is associated with a weight and the objective is to maximize the total we...

Random Walks on Colored Graphs
This thesis introduces a model of a random walk on a colored undirected graph. Such a graph has a single vertex set and   distinct sets of edges, each of which has a color. A par...

Ramsey-type theorems for metric spaces with applications to online problems
A nearly logarithmic lower bound on the randomized competitive ratio for the metrical task systems problem is presented. This implies a similar lower bound for the extensively stu...

Online Ramsey games for triangles in random graphs
In the online F-avoidance edge-coloring game with r colors, a graph on n vertices is generated by at each stage randomly adding a new edge. The player must color each new edge as ...
