We consider the problem of max-min fair allocation of indivisible goods. Our focus will be on the restricted version of the problem in which there are m items, each of which assoc...

: We continue the study of robustly testable tensor codes and expand the class of base codes that can be used as a starting point for the construction of locally testable codes via...

Let C be a class of probability distributions over a finite set . A function D : {0, 1}m is a disperser for C with entropy threshold k and error if for any distribution X in C s...

Abstract. We are interested in efficient algorithms for generating random samples from geometric objects such as Riemannian manifolds. As a step in this direction, we consider the ...

We study the complexity of locally list-decoding binary error correcting codes with good parameters (that are polynomially related to information theoretic bounds). We show that co...

Abstract. We construct an efficient 3-source extractor that requires one of the sources to be significantly shorter than the min-entropy of the other two sources. Our extractors wo...

We consider testing directed graphs for being Eulerian in the orientation model introduced in [15]. Despite the local nature of the property of being Eulerian, it turns out to be ...

We give an explicit construction of a function that is almost a 2-source extractor for linear entropy, it is a condenser where the output has almost full entropy. Given 2 sources w...
