Linear programming decoding for low-density parity check codes (and related domains such as compressed sensing) has received increased attention over recent years because of its p...

Consider the edge-connectivity survivable network design problem: given a graph G = (V, E) with edge-costs, and edgeconnectivity requirements rij Z0 for every pair of vertices i,...
A function on n variables is called a k-junta if it depends on at most k of its variables. In this article, we show that it is possible to test whether a function is a k-junta or ...
Submodular function maximization is a central problem in combinatorial optimization, generalizing many important problems including Max Cut in directed/undirected graphs and in hy...

We describe the first algorithm to compute maximum flows in surface-embedded graphs in near-linear time. Specifically, given a graph embedded on a surface of genus g, with two spe...
