Hardness of fully dense problems
In the past decade, there has been a stream of work in designing approximation schemes for dense instances of NP-Hard problems. These include the work of Arora, Karger and Karpins...

Hard and soft constraints for reasoning about qualitative conditional preferences
Many real life optimization problems are defined in terms of both hard and soft constraints, and qualitative conditional preferences. However, there is as yet no single framework f...

On the Hardness of Range Assignment Problems
We investigate the computational hardness of the Connectivity, the Strong Connectivity and the Broadcast type of Range Assignment Problems in R2 and R3. We present new reductions ...

Finding Small OBDDs for Incompletely Specified Truth Tables Is Hard
We present an efficient reduction mapping undirected graphs G with n = 2k vertices for integers k to tables of partially specified Boolean functions g : {0, 1}4k+1 {0, 1, } so tha...

Trapdoors for Hard Lattices and New Cryptographic Constructions
We show how to construct a variety of “trapdoor” cryptographic tools assuming the worst-case hardness of standard lattice problems (such as approximating the length of the sho...
