Fast algorithms for finding randomized strategies in game trees
Interactions among agents can be conveniently described by game trees. In order to analyze a game, it is important to derive optimal (or equilibrium) strategies for the di erent p...

Improved non-approximability results
We indicate strong non-approximability factors for central problems: N1/4 for Max Clique; N1/10 for Chromatic Number; and 66/65 for Max 3SAT. Underlying the Max Clique result is a...

A coding theorem for distributed computation
Shannon's Coding Theorem shows that in order to reliably transmit a message of T bits over a noisy communication channel, only a constant slowdown factor is necessary in the ...

Weakly learning DNF and characterizing statistical query learning using Fourier analysis
We present new results on the well-studied problem of learning DNF expressions. We prove that an algorithm due to Kushilevitz and Mansour [13] can be used to weakly learn DNF form...

Scalable expanders: exploiting hierarchical random wiring
Recent work has shown many advantages to randomly wired expander-based networks. Unfortunately, the wiring complexity of such networks becomes physically problematic as they becom...
