Random Tensors and Planted Cliques
The r-parity tensor of a graph is a generalization of the adjacency matrix, where the tensor’s entries denote the parity of the number of edges in subgraphs induced by r distinc...

Small-Bias Spaces for Group Products
Small-bias, or -biased, spaces have found many applications in complexity theory, coding theory, and derandomization. We generalize the notion of small-bias spaces to the setting ...

Small Clique Detection and Approximate Nash Equilibria
Recently, Hazan and Krauthgamer showed [12] that if, for a fixed small ε, an ε-best ε-approximate Nash equilibrium can be found in polynomial time in two-player games, then it ...

Strong Parallel Repetition Theorem for Free Projection Games
The parallel repetition theorem states that for any two provers one round game with value at most 1 − (for < 1/2), the value of the game repeated n times in parallel is at mo...

Minimizing Average Shortest Path Distances via Shortcut Edge Addition
We consider adding k shortcut edges (i.e. edges of small fixed length δ ≥ 0) to a graph so as to minimize the weighted average shortest path distance over all pairs of vertices...
