An Optimal Lower Bound on the Communication Complexity of Gap-Hamming-Distance
We prove an optimal (n) lower bound on the randomized communication complexity of the much-studied GAP-HAMMING-DISTANCE problem. As a consequence, we obtain essentially optimal mu...

Optimal Shape Design Using Domain Transformations and Continuous Sensitivity Equation Methods
In this paper, we consider two approaches to solving an optimization based design problem where “shape” is the design parameter. Both methods use domain transformations to comp...
