Multi-robot monitoring in dynamic environments with guaranteed currency of observations
Abstract-- In this paper we consider the problem of monitoring a known set of stationary features (or locations of interest) in an environment. To observe a feature, a robot must v...

Fixed-Polynomial Size Circuit Bounds
—In 1982, Kannan showed that ΣP 2 does not have nk -sized circuits for any k. Do smaller classes also admit such circuit lower bounds? Despite several improvements of Kannan’s...

Adaptive Simulated Annealing: A Near-optimal Connection between Sampling and Counting
We present a near-optimal reduction from approximately counting the cardinality of a discrete set to approximately sampling elements of the set. An important application of our wo...

Round Robin Is Optimal for Fault-Tolerant Broadcasting on Wireless Networks
We study the completion time of broadcast operations on static ad hoc wireless networks in presence of unpredictable and dynamical faults. Concerning oblivious fault-tolerant dist...
