Analyzing linear mergers
Mergers are functions that transform k (possibly dependent) random sources into a single random source, in a way that ensures that if one of the input sources has minentropy rate ...

Randomized Quicksort and the Entropy of the Random Source
Abstract. The worst-case complexity of an implementation of Quicksort depends on the random number generator that is used to select the pivot elements. In this paper we estimate th...
