The Impact of Stochastic Noisy Feedback on Distributed Network Utility Maximization
—The implementation of distributed network utility maximization (NUM) algorithms hinges heavily on information feedback through message passing among network elements. In practic...

Parameterizing the winner determination problem for combinatorial auctions
Combinatorial auctions have been studied by the multiagent systems community for some time, since these auctions are an effective mechanism for resource allocation when agents are...

The 2-center problem in three dimensions
Let P be a set of n points in R3 . The 2-center problem for P is to find two congruent balls of the minimum radius whose union covers P. We present two randomized algorithms for ...

Affine dispersers from subspace polynomials
An affine disperser over Fn 2 for sources of dimension d is a function f : Fn 2 F2 such that for any affine space S Fn 2 of dimension at least d, we have {f(s) : s S} = F2. Aff...

Lower bounds for local search by quantum arguments
The problem of finding a local minimum of a black-box function is central for understanding local search as well as quantum adiabatic algorithms. For functions on the Boolean hype...
