Clustering with Qualitative Information
We consider the problem of clustering a collection of elements based on pairwise judgments of similarity and dissimilarity. Bansal, Blum and Chawla (in: Proceedings of 43rd FOCS, ...

An Optimal Lower Bound on the Communication Complexity of Gap-Hamming-Distance
We prove an optimal (n) lower bound on the randomized communication complexity of the much-studied GAP-HAMMING-DISTANCE problem. As a consequence, we obtain essentially optimal mu...

Proving Hard-Core Predicates Using List Decoding
We introduce a unifying framework for proving that predicate P is hard-core for a one-way function f, and apply it to a broad family of functions and predicates, reproving old res...

Approximation Algorithms for Orienteering and Discounted-Reward TSP
In this paper, we give the rst constant-factor approximationalgorithmfor the rooted Orienteering problem, as well as a new problem that we call the Discounted-Reward TSP, motivate...
