It has been suggested that a major obstacle in finding an index calculus attack on the elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem lies in the difficulty of lifting points from ellip...
We consider the total cost of cutting down a random rooted tree chosen from a family of so-called very simple trees (which include ordered trees, d-ary trees, and Cayley trees); th...
We provide combinatorial algorithms for the unsplittable flow problem (UFP) that either match or improve the previously best results. In the UFP we are given a (possibly directed)...
This paper focuses on space efficient representations of rooted trees that permit basic navigation in constant time. While most of the previous work has focused on binary trees, w...

Quorum systems are a mechanism for obtaining fault-tolerance and efficient distributed systems. We consider geographic quorum systems; a geographic quorum system is a partition of...
