Constructing Evolutionary Trees in the Presence of Polymorphic Characters
Abstract. Most phylogenetics literature and construction methods based upon characters presume monomorphism (one state per character per species), yet polymorphism (multiple states...

The Linear-Array Conjecture in Communication Complexity is False
A linear array network consists of k + 1 processors P0; P1; : : : ; Pk with links only between Pi and Pi+1 0 i k. It is required to compute some boolean function f x; y in this n...

A combinatorial characterization of the testable graph properties: it's all about regularity
A common thread in all the recent results concerning the testing of dense graphs is the use of Szemer?edi's regularity lemma. In this paper we show that in some sense this is...

Optimal approximations of the frequency moments of data streams
We give a 1-pass ~O(m1-2/k )-space algorithm for computing the k-th frequency moment of a data stream for any real k > 2. Together with the lower bounds of [1, 2, 4], this reso...

Minimum Cuts in Near-Linear Time
We significantly improve known time bounds for solving the minimum cut problem on undirected graphs. We use a "semiduality" between minimum cuts and maximum spanning tree...
