Explicit capacity-achieving list-decodable codes
For every 0 < R < 1 and > 0, we present an explicit construction of error-correcting codes of rate R that can be list decoded in polynomial time up to a fraction (1 - R ...

Gowers uniformity, influence of variables, and PCPs
Gowers [Gow98, Gow01] introduced, for d 1, the notion of dimension-d uniformity Ud (f) of a function f : G C, where G is a finite abelian group. Roughly speaking, if a function ...

Approximation Algorithms for Non-Uniform Buy-at-Bulk Network Design
We consider approximation algorithms for non-uniform buy-at-bulk network design problems. The first nontrivial approximation algorithm for this problem is due to Charikar and Kar...

Approximating Average Parameters of Graphs
Inspired by Feige (36th STOC, 2004), we initiate a study of sublinear randomized algorithms for approximating average parameters of a graph. Specifically, we consider the average ...

On Expected Constant-Round Protocols for Byzantine Agreement
In a seminal paper, Feldman and Micali (STOC '88) show an n-party Byzantine agreement protocol tolerating t < n/3 malicious parties that runs in expected constant rounds. H...
