Computing the minimum number of hybridization events for a consistent evolutionary history
It is now well-documented that the structure of evolutionary relationships between a set of present-day species is not necessarily tree-like. The reason for this is that reticulat...

Exploring the Relationship Between Max-Cut and Stable Set Relaxations
The max-cut and stable set problems are two fundamental NP-hard problems in combinatorial optimization. It has been known for a long time that any instance of the stable set probl...

On the fourier tails of bounded functions over the discrete cube
In this paper we consider bounded real-valued functions over the discrete cube, f : {-1, 1}n [-1, 1]. Such functions arise naturally in theoretical computer science, combinatorics...
