Near-Optimal Sublinear Time Algorithms for Ulam Distance
We give near-tight bounds for estimating the edit distance between two non-repetitive strings (Ulam distance) with constant approximation, in sub-linear time. For two strings of l...

General Lower Bounds for the Running Time of Evolutionary Algorithms
Abstract. We present a new method for proving lower bounds in evolutionary computation based on fitness-level arguments and an additional condition on transition probabilities bet...

Capacity scaling of large wireless networks with heterogeneous clusters
We analyze the capacity scaling laws of wireless networks where the spatial distribution of nodes over the network area exhibits a high degree of clustering. In particular we cons...

Bounds on the dimensions of trivariate spline spaces
We derive upper and lower bounds on the dimensions of trivariate spline spaces defined on tetrahedral partitions. The results hold for general partitions, and for all degrees of sm...

A new lower bound for the non-oriented two-dimensional bin-packing problem
We propose a new scheme for computing lower bounds for the non-oriented bin-packing problem when the bin is a square. It leads to bounds that theoretically dominate previous resul...

Equality conditions for lower bounds on the smallest singular value of a bidiagonal matrix
Several lower bounds have been proposed for the smallest singular value of a square matrix, such as Johnson's bound, Brauer-type bound, Li's bound and Ostrowskitype boun...

A Layered Analysis of Consensus
This paper introduces a simple notion of layering as a tool for analyzing well-behaved runs of a given model of distributed computation. Using layering, a model-independent analysi...

New Lower Bounds For Orthogonal Drawings
An orthogonal drawing of a graph is an embedding of the graph in the two-dimensional grid such that edges are routed along grid-lines. In this paper we explore lower bounds for or...

Good Degree Bounds on Nullstellensatz Refutations of the Induction Principle
This paper gives nearly optimal, logarithmic upper and lower bounds on the minimum degree of Nullstellensatz refutations (i.e., polynomials) of the propositional induction princip...
