Near-Optimal Lower Bounds on the Multi-Party Communication Complexity of Set Disjointness
We study the communication complexity of the set disjointness problem in the general multi-party model. For t players, each holding a subset of a universe of size n, we establish ...

Supporting Incremental Join Queries on Ranked Inputs
This paper investigates the problem of incremental joins of multiple ranked data sets when the join condition is a list of arbitrary user-defined predicates on the input tuples. ...

Stable Distributions, Pseudorandom Generators, Embeddings and Data Stream Computation
In this article, we show several results obtained by combining the use of stable distributions with pseudorandom generators for bounded space. In particular: —We show that, for a...

Near optimal multiple alignment within a band in polynomial time
Multiple sequence alignment is a fundamental problem in computational biology. Because of its notorious difficulties, aligning sequences within a constant band (c-diagonal) is a ...
