The Swendsen-Wang process provides one possible dynamics for the Qstate Potts model in statistical physics. Computer simulations of this process are widely used to estimate the ex...
We construct public-key cryptosystems that are secure assuming the worst-case hardness of approximating the minimum distance on n-dimensional lattices to within small poly(n) fact...
We consider the problem of approximately counting integral flows in a network. We show that there is an fpras based on volume estimation if all capacities are sufficiently large, ...
The collision problem is to decide whether a function X : {1, . . . , n} {1, . . . , n} is one-to-one or two-to-one, given that one of these is the case. We show a lower bound of...
We consider the paging problem where the pages have varying size. This problem has applications to page replacement policies for caches containing World Wide Web documents. We con...
