Tight lower bounds for the online labeling problem
We consider the file maintenance problem (also called the online labeling problem) in which n integer items from the set {1, . . . , r} are to be stored in an array of size m ≥...

A tight lower bound for job scheduling with cancellation
The Job Scheduling with Cancellation problem is a variation of classical scheduling problems in which jobs can be cancelled while waiting for execution. In this paper we prove a t...

A Near-Tight Bound for the Online Steiner Tree Problem in Graphs of Bounded Asymmetry
The edge asymmetry of a directed, edge-weighted graph is defined as the maximum ratio of the weight of antiparallel edges in the graph, and can be used as a measure of the heterog...

Nearly Tight Bounds for the Continuum-Armed Bandit Problem
In the multi-armed bandit problem, an online algorithm must choose from a set of strategies in a sequence of n trials so as to minimize the total cost of the chosen strategies. Wh...

Tight bounds for the partial-sums problem
We close the gaps between known lower and upper bounds for the online partial-sums problem in the RAM and group models of computation. If elements are chosen from an abstract grou...
