Tight lower bounds for the online labeling problem
We consider the file maintenance problem (also called the online labeling problem) in which n integer items from the set {1, . . . , r} are to be stored in an array of size m ≥...

A tight lower bound for job scheduling with cancellation
The Job Scheduling with Cancellation problem is a variation of classical scheduling problems in which jobs can be cancelled while waiting for execution. In this paper we prove a t...

Robust Bayesian reinforcement learning through tight lower bounds
In the Bayesian approach to sequential decision making, exact calculation of the (subjective) utility is intractable. This extends to most special cases of interest, such as reinfo...

Solving MAX-r-SAT Above a Tight Lower Bound
We present an exact algorithm that decides, for every fixed r ≥ 2 in time O(m) + 2O(k2 ) whether a given multiset of m clauses of size r admits a truth assignment that satisfi...

Randomized computations on large data sets: tight lower bounds
We study the randomized version of a computation model (introduced in [9, 10]) that restricts random access to external memory and internal memory space. Essentially, this model c...
