Balanced allocations: the weighted case
We investigate balls-and-bins processes where m weighted balls are placed into n bins using the "power of two choices" paradigm, whereby a ball is inserted into the less...

Playing games with approximation algorithms
In an online linear optimization problem, on each period t, an online algorithm chooses st S from a fixed (possibly infinite) set S of feasible decisions. Nature (who may be adve...

On the submodularity of influence in social networks
We prove and extend a conjecture of Kempe, Kleinberg, and Tardos (KKT) on the spread of influence in social networks. A social network can be represented by a directed graph where...

Towards 3-query locally decodable codes of subexponential length
A q-query Locally Decodable Code (LDC) encodes an n-bit message x as an N-bit codeword C(x), such that one can probabilistically recover any bit xi of the message by querying only...

Lower bounds for randomized read/write stream algorithms
Motivated by the capabilities of modern storage architectures, we consider the following generalization of the data stream model where the algorithm has sequential access to multi...
