On the maximum quartet distance between phylogenetic trees
A conjecture of Bandelt and Dress states that the maximum quartet distance between any two phylogenetic trees on n leaves is at most (2 3 + o(1)) n 4 . Using the machinery of fla...

Clustering Problems on Sliding Windows
We explore clustering problems in the streaming sliding window model in both general metric spaces and Euclidean space. We present the first polylogarithmic space O(1)-approximat...

The Restricted Isometry Property of Subsampled Fourier Matrices
A matrix A ∈ Cq×N satisfies the restricted isometry property of order k with constant ε if it preserves the 2 norm of all k-sparse vectors up to a factor of 1 ± ε. We prove...

The Adversarial Noise Threshold for Distributed Protocols
We consider the problem of implementing distributed protocols, despite adversarial channel errors, on synchronous-messaging networks with arbitrary topology. In our first result ...

Towards Optimal Deterministic Coding for Interactive Communication
We study efficient, deterministic interactive coding schemes that simulate any interactive protocol both under random and adversarial errors, and can achieve a constant communicat...

Incidence Geometries and the Pass Complexity of Semi-Streaming Set Cover
Set cover, over a universe of size n, may be modelled as a data-streaming problem, where the m sets that comprise the instance are to be read one by one. A semi-streaming algorith...

Bounds for Random Constraint Satisfaction Problems via Spatial Coupling
We report on a novel technique called spatial coupling and its application in the analysis of random constraint satisfaction problems (CSP). Spatial coupling was invented as an en...
