In this paper, we give a lower bound of (n(d-1)/2 ) on the quantum query complexity for finding a fixed point of a discrete Brouwer function over grid [1 : n]d . Our bound is near...
Given a point set S and an unknown metric d on S, we study the problem of efficiently partitioning S into k clusters while querying few distances between the points. In our model ...

Quadratic classifier with modified quadratic discriminant function (MQDF) has been successfully applied to recognition of handwritten characters to achieve very good performance. ...
We advance significantly beyond the recent progress on the algorithmic complexity of Nash equilibria by solving two major open problems in the approximation of Nash equilibria an...
Motivated by the problem of detecting link-spam, we consider the following graph-theoretic primitive: Given a webgraph G, a vertex v in G, and a parameter δ ∈ (0, 1), compute th...
