The Rabin tree theorem yields an algorithm to solve the satisfiability problem for monadic second-order logic over infinite trees. Here we solve the probabilistic variant of this problem. Namely, we show how to compute the probability that…

We present a simple semi-streaming algorithm for $(1-\epsilon)$-approximation of bipartite matching in $O(\log{\!(n)}/\epsilon)$ passes. This matches the performance of state-of-the-art "$\epsilon$-efficient" algorithms -- the ones with…

It is shown that a context-free grammar of size $m$ that produces a single string $w$ (such a grammar is also called a string straight-line program) can be transformed in linear time into a context-free grammar for $w$ of size…

We consider the following generalization of the binary search problem. A search strategy is required to locate an unknown target node $t$ in a given tree $T$. Upon querying a node $v$ of the tree, the strategy receives as a reply an…

The downward closure of a word language is the set of all (not necessarily contiguous) subwords of its members. It is well-known that the downward closure of any language is regular. While the downward closure appears to be a powerful…

An algorithm is proposed for constructing directed spanning forests of the minimum weight, in which the maximum possible degree of affinity between the minimum forests is preserved when the number of trees changes. The correctness of the…
