A q query Locally Decodable Code (LDC) encodes an n-bit message x as an N-bit codeword C(x), such that one can probabilistically recover any bit xi of the message by querying only...
Abstract. We consider two natural generalizations of the notion of transversal to a finite hypergraph, arising in data-mining and machine learning, the so called multiple and parti...

This paper gives a new example of exploiting the idea of using polynomials with restricted coefficients over finite fields and rings to construct reliable cryptosystems and identif...
In this paper we develop a new technique for proving lower bounds on the update time and query time of dynamic data structures in the cell probe model. With this technique, we pro...
