Uniform Direct Product Theorems: Simplified, Optimized, and Derandomized
The classical direct product theorem for circuits says that if a Boolean function f : {0, 1}n → {0, 1} is somewhat hard to compute on average by small circuits, then the correspo...

Near-Optimal Lower Bounds on the Multi-Party Communication Complexity of Set Disjointness
We study the communication complexity of the set disjointness problem in the general multi-party model. For t players, each holding a subset of a universe of size n, we establish ...

A Near-Optimal Packet Scheduler for QoS Networks
A packet scheduler in a quality-of-service QoS network should be sophisticated enough to support stringent QoS constraints at high loads, but it must also have a simple implemen...
