Impagliazzo and Wigderson IW97] have recently shown that if there exists a decision problem solvable in time 2O(n) and having circuit complexity 2 (n) (for all but nitely many n) ...
—A simple averaging argument shows that given a randomized algorithm A and a function f such that for every input x, Pr[A(x) = f(x)] ≥ 1−ρ (where the probability is over the...
We prove a lower bound of (n4/3 log1/3 n) on the randomized decision tree complexity of any nontrivial monotone n-vertex graph property, and of any nontrivial monotone bipartite g...
We present a proof of safety and linearizability of a highlyconcurrent optimistic set algorithm. The key step in our proof is the Hindsight Lemma, which allows a thread to infer t...
