On finding a guard that sees most and a shop that sells most
We present a near-quadratic time algorithm that computes a point inside a simple polygon P having approximately the largest visibility polygon inside P, and a nearlinear time algo...

Constructing finite field extensions with large order elements
In this paper, we present an algorithm that given a fixed prime power q and a positive integer N, finds an integer n [N, 2qN] and an element Fqn of order greater than 5.8n/ log...

The Bloomier filter: an efficient data structure for static support lookup tables
We introduce the Bloomier filter, a data structure for compactly encoding a function with static support in order to support approximate evaluation queries. Our construction gener...

Quantitative stochastic parity games
We study perfect-information stochastic parity games. These are two-player nonterminating games which are played on a graph with turn-based probabilistic transitions. A play resul...

Non-migratory online deadline scheduling on multiprocessors
In this paper we consider multiprocessor scheduling with hard deadlines and investigate the cost of eliminating migration in the online setting. Let I be any set of jobs that can ...

An optimal randomized algorithm for maximum Tukey depth
We present the first optimal algorithm to compute the maximum Tukey depth (also known as location or halfspace depth) for a non-degenerate point set in the plane. The algorithm is...

Competitive analysis of organization networks or multicast acknowledgement: how much to wait?
We study, from the competitive analysis perspective, the trade off between communication cost and delay cost (or simply the sendor-wait dilemma) on a hierarchy (rooted tree). The p...
