The time-constrained packet routing problem is to schedule a set of packets to be transmitted through a multinode network, where every packet has a source and a destination (as in ...
The Coin Problem is the following problem: a coin is given, which lands on head with probability either 1/2 + or 1/2 - . We are given the outcome of n independent tosses of this co...
For a collection F of d-variate piecewise linear functions of overall combinatorial complexity n, the lower envelope E(F) of F is the pointwise minimum of these functions. The min...
In the classical balls-and-bins paradigm, where n balls are placed independently and uniformly in n bins, typically the number of bins with at least two balls in them is Θ(n) and ...
The standard Erd˝os-Renyi model of random graphs begins with n isolated vertices, and at each round a random edge is added. Parametrizing n 2 rounds as one time unit, a phase tra...
