Approximation of Multi-color Discrepancy
Abstract. In this article we introduce (combinatorial) multi{color discrepancy and generalize some classical results from 2{color discrepancy theory to ccolors. We give a recursive...

Fast Approximate PCPs for Multidimensional Bin-Packing Problems
Abstract. We consider approximate PCPs for multidimensional bin-packing problems. In particular, we show how a verifier can be quickly convinced that a set of multidimensional blo...

Scheduling with Unexpected Machine Breakdowns
We investigate an online version of a basic scheduling problem where a set of jobs has to be scheduled on a number of identical machines so as to minimize the makespan. The job pr...

A Randomized Time-Work Optimal Parallel Algorithm for Finding a Minimum Spanning Forest
We present a randomized algorithm to nd a minimum spanning forest (MSF) in an undirected graph. With high probability, the algorithm runs in logarithmic time and linear work on an...
