The MasterMind game involves decoding a secret code. The classic game is a code of six possible colors in four slots. The game has been analyzed and optimal strategies have been po...
We present new explicit constructions of deterministic randomness extractors, dispersers and related objects. We say that a distribution X on binary strings of length n is a -sour...

We consider applications of probabilistic techniques in the framework of algorithmic game theory. We focus on three distinct case studies: (i) The exploitation of the probabilistic...
: The Borowsky-Gafni (BG) simulation algorithm is a powerful reduction algorithm that shows that t-resilience of decision tasks can be fully characterized in terms of wait-freedom....
We localize and strengthen Katona’s idea of an edge-toughness to a local topological toughness. We disprove a conjecture of Katona concerning the connection between edgetoughnes...
