Efficiently Decodable Non-adaptive Group Testing
We consider the following "efficiently decodable" nonadaptive group testing problem. There is an unknown string x {0, 1}n with at most d ones in it. We are allowed to t...

Basic network creation games
We study a natural network creation game, in which each node locally tries to minimize its local diameter or its local average distance to other nodes, by swapping one incident ed...

Composite Pattern Discovery for PCR Application
We consider the problem of finding pairs of short patterns such that, in a given input sequence of length n, the distance between each pair’s patterns is at least α. The proble...

Lower Bounds for Swapping Arthur and Merlin
We prove a lower bound for swapping the order of Arthur and Merlin in two-round MerlinArthur games using black-box techniques. Namely, we show that any AM-game requires time (t2 )...
