We show that approximating the shortest vector problem (in any p norm) to within any constant factor less than p 2 is hard for NP under reverse unfaithful random reductions with i...
An important technique in large cardinal set theory is that of extending an elementary embedding j : M N between inner models to an elementary embedding j : M[G] N[G] between ge...
A fundamental result of Büchi states that the set of monadic second-order formulas true in the structure (Nat, <) is decidable. A natural question is: what monadic predicates ...
Fix an element x of a finite partially ordered set P on n elements. Then let hi(x) be the number of linear extensions of P in which x is in position i, counting from the bottom. T...
Synchronization is often necessary in parallel computing, but it can create delays whenever the receiving processor is idle, waiting for the information to arrive. This is especia...
