We prove that any graph G with n points has a distribution T over spanning trees such that for any edge (u, v) the expected stretch ET ∼T [dT (u, v)/dG(u, v)] is bounded by ˜O(...

We study the properties of embeddings, multicommodity flows, and sparse cuts in minor-closed families of graphs which are also closed under 2-sums; this includes planar graphs, g...

We construct a stream-cipher SC whose implementation is secure even if a bounded amount of arbitrary (adaptively, adversarially chosen) information about the internal state of SC ...

The parallel repetition theorem states that for any two-prover game, with value 1 − (for, say, ≤ 1/2), the value of the game repeated in parallel n times is at most (1 − c)...
