Query Complexity Lower Bounds for Reconstruction of Codes
We investigate the problem of local reconstruction, as defined by Saks and Seshadhri (2008), in the context of error correcting codes. The first problem we address is that of me...

Cryptography by Cellular Automata or How Fast Can Complexity Emerge in Nature?
Computation in the physical world is restricted by the following spatial locality constraint: In a single unit of time, information can only travel a bounded distance in space. A ...

A Probabilistic Algorithm for k-SAT and Constraint Satisfaction Problems
We present a simple probabilistic algorithm for solving kSAT, and more generally, for solving constraint satisfaction problems (CSP). The algorithm follows a simple localsearch pa...

Phase Transitions and Complexity of Weighted Satisfiability and Other Intractable Parameterized Problems
The study of random instances of NP complete and coNP complete problems has had much impact on our understanding of the nature of hard problems. In this work, we initiate an effor...

Initializing Sensor Networks of Non-uniform Density in the Weak Sensor Model
Abstract. Assumptions about node density in the Sensor Networks literature are frequently too strong or too weak. Neither absolutely arbitrary nor uniform deployment seem feasible ...
