SDP Gaps for 2-to-1 and Other Label-Cover Variants
In this paper we present semidefinite programming (SDP) gap instances for the following variants of the Label-Cover problem, closely related to the Unique Games Conjecture: (i) 2-...

Fixed-Parameter Algorithms for Cochromatic Number and Disjoint Rectangle Stabbing
Given a permutation π of {1, . . . , n} and a positive integer k, we give an algorithm with running time 2O(k2 log k) nO(1) that decides whether π can be partitioned into at mos...

The Chromatic Number of Random Regular Graphs
Given any integer d ≥ 3, let k be the smallest integer such that d < 2k log k. We prove that with high probability the chromatic number of a random d-regular graph is k, k + 1...

How to Play Unique Games Using Embeddings
In this paper we present a new approximation algorithm for Unique Games. For a Unique Game with n vertices and k states (labels), if a (1 − ε) fraction of all constraints is sa...

Fast Convolutions and Their Applications in Approximate String Matching
We develop a method for performing boolean convolutions efficiently in word RAM model of computation, having a word size of w = Ω(log n) bits, where n is the input size. The tech...
