Relativized Worlds without Worst-Case to Average-Case Reductions for NP
We prove that relative to an oracle, there is no worst-case to average-case reduction for NP. We also handle classes that are somewhat larger than NP, as well as worst-case to err...

Approximating Sparsest Cut in Graphs of Bounded Treewidth
We give the first constant-factor approximation algorithm for Sparsest-Cut with general demands in bounded treewidth graphs. In contrast to previous algorithms, which rely on the f...

Proximity Algorithms for Nearly-Doubling Spaces
We introduce a new problem in the study of doubling spaces: Given a point set S and a target dimension d , remove from S the fewest number of points so that the remaining set has d...

Differential Privacy and the Fat-Shattering Dimension of Linear Queries
In this paper, we consider the task of answering linear queries under the constraint of differential privacy. This is a general and well-studied class of queries that captures oth...

Reconstruction Threshold for the Hardcore Model
In this paper we consider the reconstruction problem on the tree for the hardcore model. We determine new bounds for the non-reconstruction regime on the k-regular tree showing non...
