The existence of concatenated codes list-decodable up to the hamming bound
We prove that binary linear concatenated codes with an outer algebraic code (specifically, a folded Reed-Solomon code) and independently and randomly chosen linear inner codes ach...

Improved Approximations for Multiprocessor Scheduling Under Uncertainty
This paper presents improved approximation algorithms for the problem of multiprocessor scheduling under uncertainty (SUU), in which the execution of each job may fail probabilist...

Self-Testing/Correcting for Polynomials and for Approximate Functions
The study of self-testing/correcting programs was introduced in [8] in order to allow one to use program P to compute function f without trusting that P works correctly. A self-te...

Two-Source Extractors Secure against Quantum Adversaries
We initiate the study of multi-source extractors in the quantum world. In this setting, our goal is to extract random bits from two independent weak random sources, on which two q...
