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...
Exact computation for aggregate queries usually requires large amounts of memory ? constrained in data-streaming ? or communication ? constrained in distributed computation ? and ...
Heavy hitters, which are items occurring with frequency above a given threshold, are an important aggregation and summary tool when processing data streams or data warehouses. Hie...

We prove that if NP ⊆ BPP, i.e., if SAT is worst-case hard, then for every probabilistic polynomial-time algorithm trying to decide SAT, there exists some polynomially samplable ...
