On the Complexity of Computing Short Linearly Independent Vectors and Short Bases in a Lattice
Motivated by Ajtai’s worst-case to average-case reduction for lattice problems, we study the complexity of computing short linearly independent vectors (short basis) in a lattic...

Oblivious interference scheduling
In the interference scheduling problem, one is given a set of n communication requests described by pairs of points from a metric space. The points correspond to devices in a wire...

Finding Independent Sets in Unions of Perfect Graphs
ABSTRACT. The maximum independent set problem (MAXIS) on general graphs is known to be NPhard to approximate within a factor of n1-, for any > 0. However, there are many "...

Parallel monotonicity reconstruction
We investigate the problem of monotonicity reconstruction, as defined in [3], in a parallel setting. We have oracle access to a nonnegative real-valued function f defined on domai...

The Intractability of Computing the Hamming Distance
Given a string x and a language L, the Hamming distance of x to L is the minimum Hamming distance of x to any string in L. The edit distance of a string to a language is analogous...
