A simple expected running time analysis for randomized "divide and conquer" algorithms
There are many randomized "divide and conquer" algorithms, such as randomized Quicksort, whose operation involves partitioning a problem of size n uniformly at random int...

Random Test Run Length and Effectiveness
Abstract—A poorly understood but important factor in random testing is the selection of a maximum length for test runs. Given a limited time for testing, it is seldom clear wheth...

Random knapsack in expected polynomial time
In this paper, we present the first average-case analysis proving an expected polynomial running time for an exact algorithm for the 0/1 knapsack problem. In particular, we prove,...

Expected time analysis for Delaunay point location
We consider point location in Delaunay triangulations with the aid of simple data structures. In particular, we analyze methods in which a simple data structure is used to first lo...

Mixing Time and Stationary Expected Social Welfare of Logit Dynamics
We study logit dynamics [3] for strategic games. At every stage of the game a player is selected uniformly at random and she is assumed to play according to a noisy best-response ...
