A Cost Function for Uniformly Partitioned UB-Trees
Most operations of the relational algebra or SQL - like projection with duplicate elimination, join, ordering, group by and aggregations - are efficiently processed using a sorted...

Weight of a link in a shortest path tree and the Dedekind Eta function
The weight of a randomly chosen link in the shortest path tree on the complete graph with exponential i.i.d. link weights is studied. The corresponding exact probability generatin...

A Distance-Based Packing Method for High Dimensional Data
Minkowski-sum cost model indicates that balanced data partitioning is not beneficial for high dimensional data. Thus we study several unbalanced partitioning methods and propose ...

Phase Change of Limit Laws in the Quicksort Recurrence under Varying Toll Functions
We characterize all limit laws of the quicksort type random variables defined recursively by Xn d = XIn + X n-1-In + Tn when the "toll function" Tn varies and satisfies ...
