A note on concentration of submodular functions
We survey a few concentration inequalities for submodular and fractionally subadditive functions of independent random variables, implied by the entropy method for self-bounding f...

Concentration of Multivariate Polynomials and Its Applications
Suppose t1, ..., tn are independent random variables which take value either 0 or 1, and Y is a multi-variable polynomial in ti's with positive coefficients. We give a conditi...

Compression Function Design Principles Supporting Variable Output Lengths from a Single Small Function
In this paper, we introduce new compression function design principles supporting variable output lengths (multiples of size n). They are based on a function or block cipher with a...
