—We prove new lower bounds in the area of property testing of boolean functions. Specifically, we study the problem of testing whether a boolean function f is isomorphic to a ...
Range searching is a fundamental problem in computational geometry. The problem involves preprocessing a set of n points in Rd into a data structure, so that it is possible to det...

We prove lower bounds on the redundancy necessary to represent a set S of objects using a number of bits close to the information-theoretic minimum log2 |S|, while answering vario...
Wireless sensor networks are proving to be useful in a variety of settings. A core challenge in these networks is to minimize energy consumption. Prior database research has propo...
