Although evolutionary algorithms (EAs) are widely used in practical optimization, their theoretical analysis is still in its infancy. Up to now results on the (expected) runtime ar...
Suppose we have n algorithms, quantum or classical, each computing some bit-value with bounded error probability. We describe a quantum algorithm that uses O( √ n) repetitions of...
We prove lower bounds for the direct sum problem for two-party bounded error randomised multipleround communication protocols. Our proofs use the notion of information cost of a p...
Recently, Fabrikant, Koutsoupias and Papadimitriou [7] introduced a natural and beautifully simple model of network growth involving a trade-off between geometric and network obje...
We consider requests for capacity in a given tree network T = (V, E) where each edge of the tree has some integer capacity ue. Each request consists of an integer demand df and a ...
