A New Sampling Protocol and Applications to Basing Cryptographic Primitives on the Hardness of NP
We investigate the question of what languages can be decided efficiently with the help of a recursive collisionfinding oracle. Such an oracle can be used to break collisionresistan...

An Incremental Sampling-based Algorithm for Stochastic Optimal Control
Abstract— In this paper, we consider a class of continuoustime, continuous-space stochastic optimal control problems. Building upon recent advances in Markov chain approximation ...

Sampling Bounds for Stochastic Optimization
A large class of stochastic optimization problems can be modeled as minimizing an objective function f that depends on a choice of a vector x ∈ X, as well as on a random external...

Almost random graphs with simple hash functions
We describe a simple randomized construction for generating pairs of hash functions h1, h2 from a universe U to ranges V = [m] = {0, 1, . . . , m - 1} and W = [m] so that for ever...
