An Optimally Fair Coin Toss
We address one of the foundational problems in cryptography: the bias of coin-flipping protocols. Coin-flipping protocols allow mutually distrustful parties to generate a common u...

On metric ramsey-type phenomena
The main question studied in this article may be viewed as a nonlinear analogue of Dvoretzky's theorem in Banach space theory or as part of Ramsey theory in combinatorics. Gi...

Optimal outlier removal in high-dimensional
We study the problem of finding an outlier-free subset of a set of points (or a probability distribution) in n-dimensional Euclidean space. As in [BFKV 99], a point x is defined t...

On the Complexity of Join Predicates
We consider the complexity of join problems, focusing on equijoins, spatial-overlap joins, and set-containment joins. We use a graph pebbling model to characterize these joins com...

Zero-Error Source Coding with Maximum Distortion Criterion
Let finite source and reproduction alphabets X and Y and a distortion measure d : X ? Y [0, ) be given. We study the minimum asymptotic rate required to describe a source distrib...
