A Lower Bound for Primality
Recent work by Bernasconi, Damm and Shparlinski showed that the set of square-free numbers is not in AC0 , and raised as an open question whether similar (or stronger) lower bound...

Improved Bounds for Online Routing and Packing Via a Primal-Dual Approach
In this work we study a wide range of online and offline routing and packing problems with various objectives. We provide a unified approach, based on a clean primal-dual method...

Online make-to-order joint replenishment model: primal dual competitive algorithms
In this paper, we study an online make-to-order variant of the classical joint replenishment problem (JRP) that has been studied extensively over the years and plays a fundamental...

A Primal-Dual Randomized Algorithm for Weighted Paging
In the weighted paging problem there is a weight (cost) for fetching each page into the cache. We design a randomized O(log k)-competitive online algorithm for the weighted paging...

On Approximation Lower Bounds for TSP with Bounded Metrics
We develop a new method for proving explicit approximation lower bounds for TSP problems with bounded metrics improving on the best up to now known bounds. They almost match the b...
