Derandomization of Euclidean Random Walks
We consider the problem of derandomizing random walks in the Euclidean space Rk . We show that for k = 2, and in some cases in higher dimensions, such walks can be simulated in Lo...

A Random Polynomial Time Algorithm for Approximating the Volume of Convex Bodies
We present a randomised polynomial time algorithm for approximating the volume of a convex body K in n-dimensional Euclidean space. The proof of correctness of the algorithm relie...

Derandomizing the AW matrix-valued Chernoff bound using pessimistic estimators and applications
Ahlswede and Winter [AW02] introduced a Chernoff bound for matrix-valued random variables, which is a non-trivial generalization of the usual Chernoff bound for real-valued random...

Deterministic random walks on the integers
Jim Propp’s P-machine, also known as the ‘rotor router model’ is a simple deterministic process that simulates a random walk on a graph. Instead of distributing chips to ran...
