Estimating the Distance to a Monotone Function
In standard property testing, the task is to distinguish between objects that have a property P and those that are ε-far from P, for some ε > 0. In this setting, it is perfec...

Counting Connected Graphs and Hypergraphs via the Probabilistic Method
While it is exponentially unlikely that a sparse random graph or hypergraph is connected, with probability 1 − o(1) such a graph has a “giant component” that, given its numbe...

Maximum Coverage Problem with Group Budget Constraints and Applications
We study a variant of the maximum coverage problem which we label the maximum coverage problem with group budget constraints (MCG). We are given a collection of sets S = {S1, S2, ....

On the Crossing Spanning Tree Problem
Given an undirected n-node graph and a set C of m cuts, the minimum crossing tree is a spanning tree which minimizes the maximum crossing of any cut in C, where the crossing of a c...

Strong Refutation Heuristics for Random k-SAT
A simple first moment argument shows that in a randomly chosen k-SAT formula with m clauses over n boolean variables, the fraction of satisfiable clauses is 1−2−k +o(1) as m/...
