Toward a Compositional Theory of Leftist Grammars and Transformations
Leftist grammars [Motwani et al., STOC 2000] are special semi-Thue systems where symbols can only insert or erase to their left. We develop a theory of leftist grammars seen as wor...

On the k-Independence Required by Linear Probing and Minwise Independence
We show that linear probing requires 5-independent hash functions for expected constant-time performance, matching an upper bound of [Pagh et al. STOC’07]. For (1 + ε)-approxima...

Quantum One-Way Communication is Exponentially Stronger Than Classical Communication
In STOC 1999, Raz presented a (partial) function for which there is a quantum protocol communicating only O(log n) qubits, but for which any classical (randomized, bounded-error) ...

Interactive Locking, Zero-Knowledge PCPs, and Unconditional Cryptography
Motivated by the question of basing cryptographic protocols on stateless tamper-proof hardware tokens, we revisit the question of unconditional two-prover zero-knowledge proofs fo...
