Complexity of Unification in Free Groups and Free Semi-groups
The exponent of periodicity is an important factor in estimates of complexity of word-unification algorithms. We prove that the exponent of periodicity of a minimal solution of a w...

A Near-Tight Bound for the Online Steiner Tree Problem in Graphs of Bounded Asymmetry
The edge asymmetry of a directed, edge-weighted graph is defined as the maximum ratio of the weight of antiparallel edges in the graph, and can be used as a measure of the heterog...

Lower Bounds for Non-interactive Zero-Knowledge
Abstract. We establish new lower bounds and impossibility results for noninteractive zero-knowledge proofs and arguments with set-up assumptions. – For the common random string m...

Quantum lower bound for the collision problem
The collision problem is to decide whether a function X : {1, . . . , n} {1, . . . , n} is one-to-one or two-to-one, given that one of these is the case. We show a lower bound of...
