Replacement Paths via Fast Matrix Multiplication
Let G be a directed edge-weighted graph and let P be a shortest path from s to t in G. The replacement paths problem asks to compute, for every edge e on P, the shortest s-to-t pat...

On the Computational Complexity of Coin Flipping
Coin flipping is one of the most fundamental tasks in cryptographic protocol design. Informally, a coin flipping protocol should guarantee both (1) Completeness: an honest executi...

Learning Convex Concepts from Gaussian Distributions with PCA
We present a new algorithm for learning a convex set in n-dimensional space given labeled examples drawn from any Gaussian distribution. The complexity of the algorithm is bounded ...

How Leaky Is an Extractor?
This paper discusses the security of a leakage-resilient stream cipher presented at FOCS 2008, instantiated in a practical setting. Based on a case study, we put forward implementa...
