Pseudorandom Generators for Combinatorial Checkerboards
We define a combinatorial checkerboard to be a function f : {1, . . . , m}d {1, -1} of the form f(u1, . . . , ud) = d i=1 fi(ui) for some functions fi : {1, . . . , m} {1, -1}. T...

Testing linear-invariant non-linear properties: A short report
The rich collection of successes in property testing raises a natural question: Why are so many different properties turning out to be locally testable? Are there some broad "...

Improved bounds for the randomized decision tree complexity of recursive majority
We consider the randomized decision tree complexity of the recursive 3-majority function. For evaluating a height h formulae, we prove a lower bound for the -two-sided-error rando...

A Note on Amplifying the Error-Tolerance of Locally Decodable Codes
Trevisan [Tre03] suggested a transformation that allows amplifying the error rate a code can handle. We observe that this transformation, that was suggested in the non-local setti...

Estimating the unseen: A sublinear-sample canonical estimator of distributions
We introduce a new approach to characterizing the unobserved portion of a distribution, which provides sublinear-sample additive estimators for a class of properties that includes...
