On the complexity of distributed graph coloring
Coloring the nodes of a graph with a small number of colors is one of the most fundamental problems in theoretical computer science. In this paper, we study graph coloring in a di...

On the Random-Self-Reducibility of Complete Sets
Abstract. In this paper, we generalize the previous formal de nitions of random-self-reducibility. We show that, even under our very general de nition, sets that are complete for a...

Limitations of Hardness vs. Randomness under Uniform Reductions
We consider (uniform) reductions from computing a function f to the task of distinguishing the output of some pseudorandom generator G from uniform. Impagliazzo and Wigderson [IW]...

Geometric ad-hoc routing: of theory and practice
All too often a seemingly insurmountable divide between theory and practice can be witnessed. In this paper we try to contribute to narrowing this gap in the field of ad-hoc rout...
