Nominal techniques were introduced to represent in a simple and natural way that involve binders. The syntax includes an abstraction operator and a primitive notion of name swappin...
A nearly logarithmic lower bound on the randomized competitive ratio for the metrical task systems problem is presented. This implies a similar lower bound for the extensively stu...
The exact complexity of the weak pigeonhole principle is an old and fundamental problem in proof complexity. Using a diagonalization argument, Paris, Wilkieand Woods 16] showed ho...
