We present three alternative simple constructions of small probability spaces on n bits for which any k bits are almost independent. The number of bits used to specify a point in ...
Given a graph with edges colored Red and Blue, we wish to sample and approximately count the number of perfect matchings with exactly k Red edges. We study a Markov chain on the sp...

This paper addresses the difficult problem of selecting representative samples of peer properties (e.g., degree, link bandwidth, number of files shared) in unstructured peer-to-p...

A large class of stochastic optimization problems can be modeled as minimizing an objective function f that depends on a choice of a vector x ∈ X, as well as on a random external...
