An Adaptive Localized Algorithm for Multiple Sensor Area Coverage
— Wireless sensor networks are made up of hundreds of devices deployed over a distant or sensitive field to be monitored. Energy consumption is balanced by taking advantage of t...

Worst-Case to Average-Case Reductions Revisited
Abstract. A fundamental goal of computational complexity (and foundations of cryptography) is to find a polynomial-time samplable distribution (e.g., the uniform distribution) and...

Pseudorandom generators without the XOR Lemma
Impagliazzo and Wigderson IW97] have recently shown that if there exists a decision problem solvable in time 2O(n) and having circuit complexity 2 (n) (for all but nitely many n) ...

Towards Sharp Inapproximability For Any 2-CSP
We continue the recent line of work on the connection between semidefinite programming-based approximation algorithms and the Unique Games Conjecture. Given any boolean 2-CSP (or...

On the Complexity of Approximating TSP with Neighborhoods and Related Problems
We prove that various geometric covering problems, related to the Travelling Salesman Problem cannot be efficiently approximated to within any constant factor unless P = NP. This ...
