Recursive Markov Chains, Stochastic Grammars, and Monotone Systems of Nonlinear Equations
We introduce and study Recursive Markov Chains (RMCs), which extend ordinary finite state Markov chains with the ability to invoke other Markov chains in a potentially recursive m...

Roundings Respecting Hard Constraints
We provide a deterministic algorithm that constructs small point sets exhibiting a low star discrepancy. The algorithm is based on recent results on randomized roundings respectin...

Connectivity for Wireless Agents Moving on a Cycle or Grid
Abstract. We present a mathematical model to analyse the establishment and maintenance of communication between mobile agents. We assume that the agents move through a fixed envir...

Robust Polynomials and Quantum Algorithms
We define and study the complexity of robust polynomials for Boolean functions and the related fault-tolerant quantum decision trees, where input bits are perturbed by noise. We ...

Improved Algorithms for Dynamic Page Migration
Abstract. The dynamic page migration problem [4] is defined in a distributed network of n mobile nodes sharing one indivisible memory page of size D. During runtime, the nodes can...
