Smoothed Analysis of Binary Search Trees and Quicksort Under Additive Noise
Binary search trees are a fundamental data structure and their height plays a key role in the analysis of divide-and-conquer algorithms like quicksort. Their worst-case height is l...

On the Hardness and Smoothed Complexity of Quasi-Concave Minimization
In this paper, we resolve the smoothed and approximative complexity of low-rank quasi-concave minimization, providing both upper and lower bounds. As an upper bound, we provide th...
