Lower Bounds on Near Neighbor Search via Metric Expansion
In this paper we show how the complexity of performing nearest neighbor (NNS) search on a metric space is related to the expansion of the metric space. Given a metric space we loo...

Bounded real-time dynamic programming: RTDP with monotone upper bounds and performance guarantees
MDPs are an attractive formalization for planning, but realistic problems often have intractably large state spaces. When we only need a partial policy to get from a fixed start s...

Exploiting symmetries in SDP-relaxations for polynomial optimization
Abstract. We consider the issue of exploiting symmetries in the hierarchy of semidefinite programming relaxations recently introduced in polynomial optimization. We focus on probl...

New Bounds for the Controller Problem
The (M, W)-controller, originally studied by Afek, Awerbuch, Plotkin, and Saks, is a basic ted tool that provides an abstraction for managing the consumption of a global resource ...

Geometric Searching over the Rationals
We revisit classical geometric search problems under the assumption of rational coordinates. Our main result is a tight bound for point separation, ie, to determine whether n given...
