Randomized computations on large data sets: tight lower bounds
We study the randomized version of a computation model (introduced in [9, 10]) that restricts random access to external memory and internal memory space. Essentially, this model c...

Tight information-theoretic lower bounds for welfare maximization in combinatorial auctions
We provide tight information-theoretic lower bounds for the welfare maximization problem in combinatorial auctions. In this problem, the goal is to partition m items among k bidde...

A Tight Lower Bound for k-Set Agreement
: Weprove tight bounds on the time needed to solve k-set agreement, a natural generalization of consensus. We analyze this problem in a synchronous, message-passing model where pro...

A Near-Tight Lower Bound on the Time Complexity of Distributed Minimum-Weight Spanning Tree Construction
This paper presents a lower bound of (D + n/ log n) on the time required for the distributed construction of a minimum-weight spanning tree (MST) in weighted n-vertex networks of ...
