The Elmore delay is an extremely popular delay metric, particularly for RC tree analysis. The widespread usage of this metric is mainly attributable to it being the most accurate ...
It is well known that it is an ill-posed problem to decide whether a function has a multiple root. Even for a univariate polynomial an arbitrary small perturbation of a polynomial ...
We prove new lower bounds for learning intersections of halfspaces, one of the most important concept classes in computational learning theory. Our main result is that any statist...
This paper studies the problem of statically determining upper bounds on the resource consumption of first-order functional programs. A previous work approached the problem with an...
We solve the problem of minimizing the number of critical points among all functions on a surface within a prescribed distance from a given input function. The result is achieved...
