Drifting Games
We consider the problem of learning to predict as well as the best in a group of experts making continuous predictions. We assume the learning algorithm has prior knowledge of the ...

Algorithmic Lower Bounds for Problems Parameterized by Clique-width
Many NP-hard problems can be solved efficiently when the input is restricted to graphs of bounded tree-width or clique-width. In particular, by the celebrated result of Courcelle,...

A Lower Bound for Testing 3-Colorability in Bounded-Degree Graphs
We consider the problem of testing 3-colorability in the bounded-degree model. We show that, for small enough ε, every tester for 3colorability must have query complexity Ω(n)....

Communication Complexity and Its Applications
Here we prove an asymptotically optimal lower bound on the information complexity of the k-party disjointness function with the unique intersection promise, an important special ca...

Ramsey-type theorems for metric spaces with applications to online problems
A nearly logarithmic lower bound on the randomized competitive ratio for the metrical task systems problem is presented. This implies a similar lower bound for the extensively stu...
