Negation-limited circuits have been studied as a circuit model between general circuits and monotone circuits. In this paper, we consider limiting negations in formulas. The minimu...
We improve the approximation ratios for two optimization problems in planar graphs. For node-weighted Steiner tree, a classical network-optimization problem, the best achievable ap...

We present a range of new results for testing properties of Boolean functions that are defined in terms of the Fourier spectrum. Broadly speaking, our results show that the propert...

Estimating frequency moments and Lp distances are well studied problems in the adversarial data stream model and tight space bounds are known for these two problems. There has been...
This paper shows how to build and maintain a distributed heap which we call SHELL. In contrast to standard heaps, our heap is oblivious in the sense that its structure only depends...
