Referring to the query complexity of property testing, we prove the existence of a rich hierarchy of corresponding complexity classes. That is, for any relevant function q, we prov...

Motivated by questions in property testing, we search for linear error-correcting codes that have the “single local orbit” property: i.e., they are specified by a single loca...

In this paper we consider two basic questions regarding the query complexity of testing graph properties in the adjacency matrix model. The first question refers to the relation ...

Property testing is concerned with deciding whether an object (e.g. a graph or a function) has a certain property or is “far” (for some definition of far) from every object w...

The parallel repetition theorem states that for any two provers one round game with value at most 1 − (for < 1/2), the value of the game repeated n times in parallel is at mo...

Small-bias, or -biased, spaces have found many applications in complexity theory, coding theory, and derandomization. We generalize the notion of small-bias spaces to the setting ...

Abstract. This work considers the problem of approximating fixed predicate constraint satisfaction problems (MAX k-CSP(P)). We show that if the set of assignments accepted by P co...

We study the maximization version of the fundamental graph coloring problem. Here the goal is to color the vertices of a k-colorable graph with k colors so that a maximum fraction ...

In 1990, E. Baum gave an elegant polynomial-time algorithm for learning the intersection of two origin-centered halfspaces with respect to any symmetric distribution (i.e., any D s...
