Given a graph G = (V, E) with n vertices, m edges and maximum vertex degree ∆, the load distribution of a coloring ϕ : V → {red, blue} is a pair dϕ = (rϕ, bϕ), where rϕ i...

Abstract. We consider a Stackelberg pricing problem in directed networks. Tariffs have to be defined by an operator, the leader, for a subset of the arcs, the tariff arcs. Clien...

Many popular stream ciphers apply a filter/combiner to the state of one or several LFSRs. Algebraic attacks on such ciphers [10, 11] are possible, if there is a multivariate relat...
We define a new interactive differentially private mechanism — the median mechanism — for answering arbitrary predicate queries that arrive online. Given fixed accuracy and...
Randomness extractors convert weak sources of randomness into an almost uniform distribution; the conversion uses a small amount of pure randomness. In algorithmic applications, t...
