We present a randomized EREW PRAM algorithm to nd a minimum spanning forest in a weighted undirected graph. On an n-vertex graph the algorithm runs in o((logn)1+ ) expected time f...
We propose an algorithm for detecting bridges and estimating geodesic distances from a set of noisy samples of an underlying manifold. Finding geodesics on a nearest neighbors gra...
Consider a connected r-regular n-vertex graph G with random independent edge lengths, each uniformly distributed on [0, 1]. Let mst(G) be the expected length of a minimum spanning...
We initiate a general study of pseudo-random implementations of huge random objects, and apply it to a few areas in which random objects occur naturally. For example, a random obj...
We consider multi-period portfolio selection problems for a decision maker with a specified utility function when the variance of security returns is described by a discrete time ...
