Covering Rectilinear Polygons with Axis-Parallel Rectangles
We give an O( log n) factor approximation algorithm for covering a rectilinear polygon with holes using axis-parallel rectangles. This is the first polynomial time approximation a...

PCP Characterizations of NP: Towards a Polynomially-Small Error-Probability
This paper strengthens the low-error PCP characterization of NP, coming closer to the upper limit of the BGLR conjecture. Consider the task of verifying a witness for the membersh...

Oblivious Transfer and Polynomial Evaluation
Oblivious polynomial evaluation is a protocol involving two parties, a sender whose input is a polynomial P, and a receiver whose input is a value α. At the end of the protocol t...

Quantum One-Way Communication is Exponentially Stronger Than Classical Communication
In STOC 1999, Raz presented a (partial) function for which there is a quantum protocol communicating only O(log n) qubits, but for which any classical (randomized, bounded-error) ...
