View selection using randomized search
An important issue in data warehouse development is the selection of a set of views to materialize in order to accelerate OLAP queries, given certain space and maintenance time co...

An Extension of Geiringer's Theorem for a Wide Class of Evolutionary Search Algorithms
The frequency with which various elements of the search space of a given evolutionary algorithm are sampled is affected by the family of recombination (reproduction) operators. Th...

If NP Languages are Hard on the Worst-Case Then It is Easy to Find Their Hard Instances
We prove that if NP ⊆ BPP, i.e., if SAT is worst-case hard, then for every probabilistic polynomial-time algorithm trying to decide SAT, there exists some polynomially samplable ...

The expansion and mixing time of skip graphs with applications
We prove that with high probability a skip graph contains a 4-regular expander as a subgraph, and estimate the quality of the expansion via simulations. As a consequence skip grap...
