Schema design for XML repositories: complexity and tractability
Abiteboul et al. initiated the systematic study of distributed XML documents consisting of several logical parts, possibly located on different machines. The physical distributio...

On-Line Probability, Complexity and Randomness
Abstract. Classical probability theory considers probability distributions that assign probabilities to all events (at least in the finite case). However, there are natural situat...

Average-Case Complexity of Shellsort
We demonstrate an ⍀( pn1ϩ1/p) lower bound on the average-case running time (uniform distribution) of p-pass Shellsort. This is the first nontrivial general lower bound for avera...

Complexity Monotone in Conditions and Future Prediction Errors
We bound the future loss when predicting any (computably) stochastic sequence online. Solomonoff finitely bounded the total deviation of his universal predictor M from the true dis...
