An Asymptotic Analysis of the Mean First Passage Time for Narrow Escape Problems: Part I: Two-Dimensional Domains
The mean first passage time (MFPT) is calculated for a Brownian particle in a bounded two-dimensional domain that contains N small nonoverlapping absorbing windows on its boundary....

Beyond Equilibria: Mechanisms for Repeated Combinatorial Auctions
: We study the design of mechanisms in combinatorial auction domains. We focus on settings where the auction is repeated, motivated by auctions for licenses or advertising space. W...

On Completing Latin Squares
We present a (2 3 − o(1))-approximation algorithm for the partial latin square extension (PLSE) problem. This improves the current best bound of 1 − 1 e due to Gomes, Regis, an...

Range counting over multidimensional data streams
We consider the problem of approximate range counting over streams of d-dimensional points. In the data stream model, the algorithm makes a single scan of the data, which is prese...

Fitting 3D morphable models using implicit representations
We consider the problem of approximating the 3D scan of a real object through an affine combination of examples. Common approaches depend either on the explicit estimation of poi...
