Efficient simulation for discrete path-dependent option pricing
In this paper we present an algorithm for simulating functions of the minimum and terminal value for a random walk with Gaussian increments. These expectations arise in connection...

Smoothed analysis of integer programming
We present a probabilistic analysis of integer linear programs (ILPs). More specifically, we study ILPs in a so-called smoothed analysis in which it is assumed that first an adve...

Communication in Random Geometric Radio Networks with Positively Correlated Random Faults
Abstract. We study the feasibility and time of communication in random geometric radio networks, where nodes fail randomly with positive correlation. We consider a set of radio sta...

Covering minimum spanning trees of random subgraphs
We consider the problem of finding a sparse set of edges containing the minimum spanning tree (MST) of a random subgraph of G with high probability. The two random models that we ...
