Competitive analysis is the established tool for measuring the output quality of algorithms that work in an online environment. Recently, the model of advice complexity has been in...
In this paper we formalize a general model of cryptanalytic time/memory tradeoffs for the inversion of a random function f : {0, 1, . . . , N - 1} {0, 1, . . . , N - 1}. The model...
This paper presents algorithms to find vertex-critical and edgecritical subgraphs in a given graph G, and demonstrates how these critical subgraphs can be used to determine the ch...

In this paper we show how the complexity of performing nearest neighbor (NNS) search on a metric space is related to the expansion of the metric space. Given a metric space we loo...
The problem of finding a local minimum of a black-box function is central for understanding local search as well as quantum adiabatic algorithms. For functions on the Boolean hype...
