Let Vn(q) denote a vector space of dimension n over the field with q elements. A set P of subspaces of Vn(q) is a partition of Vn(q) if every nonzero vector in Vn(q) is contained ...

The focus is on black-box optimization of a function f : RN R given as a black box, i. e. an oracle for f-evaluations. This is commonly called direct search, and in fact, most meth...
We define and solve the problem of "distribution classification", and, in general, "distribution mining". Given n distributions (i.e., clouds) of multi-dimensi...

We present approximation and online algorithms for a number of problems of pricing items for sale so as to maximize seller’s revenue in an unlimited supply setting. Our first r...
Consider a scenario where one desires to simulate the execution of some graph algorithm on random input graphs of huge, perhaps even exponential size. Sampling and storing these h...
