Polynomial Degree vs. Quantum Query Complexity
The degree of a polynomial representing (or approximating) a function f is a lower bound for the quantum query complexity of f. This observation has been a source of many lower bo...

Lower Bounds for Non-Black-Box Zero Knowledge
We show new lower bounds and impossibility results for general (possibly non-black-box) zero-knowledge proofs and arguments. Our main results are that, under reasonable complexity...

On Levels in Arrangements of Curves, II: A Simple Inequality and Its Consequences
We give a surprisingly short proof that in any planar arrangement of Ò curves where each pair intersects at most a fixed number (×) of times, the -level has subquadratic (Ç´...

Paths, Trees, and Minimum Latency Tours
We give improved approximation algorithms for a variety of latency minimization problems. In particular, we give a 3.591 -approximation to the minimum latency problem, improving o...
