The Chow Parameters Problem
Abstract. In the 2nd Annual FOCS (1961), Chao-Kong Chow proved that every Boolean threshold function is uniquely determined by its degree-0 and degree-1 Fourier coefficients. These...

Combining shared-coin algorithms
This paper shows that shared coin algorithms can be combined to optimize several complexity measures, even in the presence of a strong adversary. By combining shared coins of Brac...

Performance Guarantees for Regularized Maximum Entropy Density Estimation
Abstract. We consider the problem of estimating an unknown probability distribution from samples using the principle of maximum entropy (maxent). To alleviate overfitting with a v...

Dynamic normal forms and dynamic characteristic polynomial
Abstract. We present the first fully dynamic algorithm for computing the characteristic polynomial of a matrix. In the generic symmetric case our algorithm supports rank-one updat...

Tight lower bounds for the online labeling problem
We consider the file maintenance problem (also called the online labeling problem) in which n integer items from the set {1, . . . , r} are to be stored in an array of size m ≥...
