Peer to Peer Multidimensional Overlays: Approximating Complex Structures
Peer to peer overlay networks have proven to be a good support for storing and retrieving data in a fully decentralized way. A sound approach is to structure them in such a way tha...

The Sketching Complexity of Pattern Matching
Abstract. We address the problems of pattern matching and approximate pattern matching in the sketching model. We show that it is impossible to compress the text into a small sketc...

From query complexity to computational complexity
We consider submodular optimization problems, and provide a general way of translating oracle inapproximability results arising from the symmetry gap technique to computational co...

An Almost Linear Time 2.8334-Approximation Algorithm for the Disc Covering Problem
The disc covering problem asks to cover a set of points on the plane with a minimum number of fix-sized discs. We develop an O(n(log n)2 (log log n)2 ) deterministic time 2.8334-a...
