On adequate performance measures for paging
Memory management is a fundamental problem in computer architecture and operating systems. We consider a two-level memory system with fast, but small cache and slow, but large mai...

Information-theoretically secure protocols and security under composition
We investigate the question of whether security of protocols in the information-theoretic setting (where the adversary is computationally unbounded) implies the security of these ...

Limitations of quantum coset states for graph isomorphism
It has been known for some time that graph isomorphism reduces to the hidden subgroup problem (HSP). What is more, most exponential speedups in quantum computation are obtained by...

Logarithmic hardness of the directed congestion minimization problem
We show that for any constant ε > 0, there is no Ω(log1−ε M)approximation algorithm for the directed congestion minimization problem on networks of size M unless NP ⊆ Z...

Zero-knowledge against quantum attacks
It is proved that several interactive proof systems are zero-knowledge against general quantum attacks. This includes the Goldreich?Micali?Wigderson classical zero-knowledge proto...

Linear degree extractors and the inapproximability of max clique and chromatic number
: We derandomize results of H?astad (1999) and Feige and Kilian (1998) and show that for all > 0, approximating MAX CLIQUE and CHROMATIC NUMBER to within n1are NP-hard. We furt...

New upper and lower bounds for randomized and quantum local search
Local Search problem, which finds a local minimum of a black-box function on a given graph, is of both practical and theoretical importance to combinatorial optimization, complexi...
