Localized construction of bounded degree and planar spanner for wireless ad hoc networks
We propose a novel localized algorithm that constructs a bounded degree and planar spanner for wireless ad hoc networks modeled by unit disk graph (UDG). Every node only has to kn...

Time-space tradeoffs in resolution: superpolynomial lower bounds for superlinear space
We give the first time-space tradeoff lower bounds for Resolution proofs that apply to superlinear space. In particular, we show that there are formulas of size N that have Reso...

Weak models of distributed computing, with connections to modal logic
This work presents a classification of weak models of distributed computing. We focus on deterministic distributed algorithms, and we study models of computing that are weaker ve...
