On the Round Complexity of Covert Computation
In STOC’05, von Ahn, Hopper and Langford introduced the notion of covert computation. In covert computation, a party runs a secure computation protocol over a covert (or stegano...

Solving minones-2-sat as Fast as vertex cover
The problem of finding a satisfying assignment for a 2-SAT formula that minimizes the number of variables that are set to 1 (min ones 2–sat) is NP-complete. It generalizes the w...

A New Algorithm to Solve Synchronous Consensus for Dependent Failures
Fault tolerant algorithms are often designed under the t-out-of-n assumption, which is based on the assumption that all processes or components fail independently with equal proba...

Geometric Set Cover and Hitting Sets for Polytopes in $R^3$
Suppose we are given a finite set of points P in R3 and a collection of polytopes T that are all translates of the same polytope T. We consider two problems in this paper. The firs...

On the connection between the phase transition of the covering test and the learning success rate in ILP
It is well-known that heuristic search in ILP is prone to plateau phenomena. An explanation can be given after the work of Giordana and Saitta: the ILP covering test is NP-complete...
