While data compression and Kolmogorov complexity are both about effective coding of words, the two settings differ in the following respect. A compression algorithm or compressor...
The instance complexity of a string x with respect to a set A and time bound t, ict (x : A), is the length of the shortest program for A that runs in time t, decides x correctly, ...
Abstract. While the tightest proven worst-case complexity for Andersen's points-to analysis is nearly cubic, the analysis seems to scale better on real-world codes. We examine...
This paper presents several advances in the understanding of dynamic data structures in the bit-probe model: – We improve the lower bound record for dynamic language membership p...
We prove lower bounds for the direct sum problem for two-party bounded error randomised multipleround communication protocols. Our proofs use the notion of information cost of a p...
