Integrating Sequence and Topology for Efficient and Accurate Detection of Horizontal Gene Transfer
Abstract. One phylogeny-based approach to horizontal gene transfer (HGT) detection entails comparing the topology of a gene tree to that of the species tree, and using their differ...

Inferring Piecewise Ancestral History from Haploid Sequences
There has been considerable recent interest in the use of haplotype structure to aid in the design and analysis of case-control association studies searching for genetic predictors...

On the submodularity of influence in social networks
We prove and extend a conjecture of Kempe, Kleinberg, and Tardos (KKT) on the spread of influence in social networks. A social network can be represented by a directed graph where...

Low-end uniform hardness vs. randomness tradeoffs for AM
In 1998, Impagliazzo and Wigderson [IW98] proved a hardness vs. randomness tradeoff for BPP in the uniform setting, which was subsequently extended to give optimal tradeoffs for t...

Better extractors for better codes?
We present an explicit construction of codes that can be list decoded from a fraction (1 - ) of errors in sub-exponential time and which have rate / logO(1) (1/). This comes close...
