Rationality and Strongly Polynomial Solvability of Eisenberg--Gale Markets with Two Agents
Inspired by the convex program of Eisenberg and Gale which captures Fisher markets with linear utilities, Jain and Vazirani [STOC, 2007] introduced the class of EisenbergGale (EG)...

An improved approximation ratio for the minimum linear arrangement problem
We observe that combining the techniques of Arora, Rao, and Vazirani, with the rounding algorithm of Rao and Richa yields an O( √ log n log log n)-approximation for the minimum-...

On-line bipartite matching made simple
We examine the classic on-line bipartite matching problem studied by Karp, Vazirani, and Vazirani [8] and provide a simple proof of their result that the Ranking algorithm for thi...

On computing the smallest four-coloring of planar graphs and non-self-reducible sets in P
We show that computing the lexicographically first four-coloring for planar graphs is p 2hard. This result optimally improves upon a result of Khuller and Vazirani who prove this ...

Valiant-Vazirani Lemmata for Various Logics
We show analogues of a theorem due to Valiant and Vazirani [16] for intractable parameterized complexity classes such as W[P], W[SAT] and the classes of the W-hierarchy as well as...

Concrete Security of the Blum-Blum-Shub Pseudorandom Generator
Abstract. The asymptotic security of the Blum-Blum-Shub (BBS) pseudorandom generator has been studied by Alexi et al. and Vazirani and Vazirani, who proved independently that O(log...
