Sketching and Streaming Entropy via Approximation Theory
We give near-optimal sketching and streaming algorithms for estimating Shannon entropy in the most general streaming model, with arbitrary insertions and deletions. This improves ...

Approximate Characterizations for the Gaussian Source Broadcast Distortion Region
We consider the joint source-channel coding problem of sending a Gaussian source over a K-user Gaussian broadcast channel with bandwidth mismatch. A new outer bound to the achieva...

Cycle Cover with Short Cycles
Cycle covering is a well-studied problem in computer science. In this paper, we develop approximation algorithms for variants of cycle covering problems which bound the size and/o...

Quantum Query Complexity of Some Graph Problems
Quantum algorithms for graph problems are considered, both in the adjacency matrix model and in an adjacency list-like array model. We give almost tight lower and upper bounds for ...
