The PPAD-completeness of Nash equilibrium computation is taken as evidence that the problem is computationally hard in the worst case. This evidence is necessarily rather weak, in ...
The classical direct product theorem for circuits says that if a Boolean function f : {0, 1}n → {0, 1} is somewhat hard to compute on average by small circuits, then the correspo...

We consider buffer management of unit packets with deadlines for a multi-port device with reconfiguration overhead. The goal is to maximize the throughput of the device, i.e., the...

Concurrent Collections (CnC)[8] is a declarative parallel language that allows the application developer to express their parallel application as a collection of high-level comput...
: We study the computational strength of quantum particles (each of finite dimensionality) arranged on a line. First, we prove that it is possible to perform universal adiabatic q...
