Pattern matching in Lempel-Ziv compressed strings: fast, simple, and deterministic
Countless variants of the Lempel-Ziv compression are widely used in many real-life applications. This paper is concerned with a natural modification of the classical pattern match...

Approximate Counts and Quantiles over Sliding Windows
We consider the problem of maintaining approximate counts and quantiles over fixed- and variablesize sliding windows in limited space. For quantiles, we present deterministic algo...

Approximate counting by dynamic programming
We give efficient algorithms to sample uniformly, and count approximately, the solutions to a zero-one knapsack problem. The algorithm is based on using dynamic programming to pro...

A simple local 3-approximation algorithm for vertex cover
We present a local algorithm (constant-time distributed algorithm) for finding a 3-approximate vertex cover in bounded-degree graphs. The algorithm is deterministic, and no auxili...
