New direct-product testers and 2-query PCPs
The "direct product code" of a function f gives its values on all k-tuples (f(x1), . . . , f(xk)). This basic construct underlies "hardness amplification" in c...

Computing Optimal Contracts in Series-Parallel Heterogeneous Combinatorial Agencies
We study an economic setting in which a principal motivates a team of strategic agents to exert costly effort toward the success of a joint project. The action taken by each agent...

What Can We Learn Privately?
Learning problems form an important category of computational tasks that generalizes many of the computations researchers apply to large real-life data sets. We ask: what concept ...

Resettable Zero-Knowledge in the Weak Public-Key Model
A new public-key model for resettable zero-knowledge (rZK) protocols, which is an extension and generalization of the upper-bounded public-key (UPK) model introduced by Micali and ...

Weakly learning DNF and characterizing statistical query learning using Fourier analysis
We present new results on the well-studied problem of learning DNF expressions. We prove that an algorithm due to Kushilevitz and Mansour [13] can be used to weakly learn DNF form...
