On the geometry of graphs with a forbidden minor
We study the topological simplification of graphs via random embeddings, leading ultimately to a reduction of the Gupta-Newman-Rabinovich-Sinclair (GNRS) L1 embedding conjecture t...

Online and stochastic survivable network design
Consider the edge-connectivity survivable network design problem: given a graph G = (V, E) with edge-costs, and edgeconnectivity requirements rij Z0 for every pair of vertices i,...

Goldreich's One-Way Function Candidate and Myopic Backtracking Algorithms
Abstract. Goldreich (ECCC 2000) proposed a candidate one-way function construction which is parameterized by the choice of a small predicate (over d = O(1) variables) and of a bipa...
