In this paper, we introduce 1-way and 2-way quantum nite state automata (1qfa's and 2qfa's), which are the quantum analogues of deterministic, nondeterministic and proba...
d abstract) Eyal Kushilevitz Rafail Ostrovskyy Technion Bellcore We establish the following, quite unexpected, result: replication of data for the computational Private Informatio...
We prove old and new results on the complexity of computing the dimension of algebraic varieties. In particular, we show that this problem is NP-complete in the Blum-Shub-Smale mo...
The problem of maintaining data that arrives continuously over time is increasingly prevalent in databases and digital libraries. Building on a model for sliding-window indices de...

We consider the problem of deciding whether a polygonal knot in 3dimensional Euclidean space is unknotted, capable of being continuously deformed without self-intersection so that...
Abstract. We show how to associate e ectively computableobstructions to a waitfree distributed decision task (I;O; ) in the asynchronous shared-memory, readwrite model. The key new...
We introduce a new approach to the maximum flow problem. This approach is based on assigning arc lengths based on the residual flow value and the residual arc capacities. Our appro...
