We consider streaming over a peer-to-peer network with homogeneous nodes in which a single source broadcasts a data stream to all the users in the system. Peers are allowed to enter or leave the system (adversarially) arbitrarily. Previous…
We solve a well known, long-standing open problem in relational databases theory, showing that the conjunctive query determinacy problem (in its "unrestricted" version) is undecidable.
Is there a fixed dimension $n$ such that translational tiling of $\mathbb{Z}^n$ with a monotile is undecidable? Several recent results support a positive answer to this question. Greenfeld and Tao disprove the periodic tiling conjecture by…
Many fundamental problems in extremal combinatorics are equivalent to proving certain polynomial inequalities in graph homomorphism densities. In 2011, a breakthrough result by Hatami and Norine showed that it is undecidable to verify…
We consider the decidability of state-to-state reachability in linear time-invariant control systems over continuous time. We analyse this problem with respect to the allowable control sets, which are assumed to be the image under a linear…
In this paper we study how to perform distinct sampling in the streaming model where data contain near-duplicates. The goal of distinct sampling is to return a distinct element uniformly at random from the universe of elements, given that…
A string diagram is a two-dimensional graphical representation that can be described as a one-dimensional term generated from a set of primitives using sequential and parallel compositions. Since different syntactic terms may represent the…
This is a technical report, containing all the theorem proofs in paper "Link Identifiability in Communication Networks with Two Monitors" by Liang Ma, Ting He, Kin K. Leung, Ananthram Swami, and Don Towsley, published in IEEE Globecom,…
We show that the problem of deciding for a given finite relation algebra A whether the network satisfaction problem for A can be solved by the k-consistency procedure, for some natural number k, is undecidable. For the important class of…
A pseudo-deterministic algorithm is a (randomized) algorithm which, when run multiple times on the same input, with high probability outputs the same result on all executions. Classic streaming algorithms, such as those for finding heavy…
Finite automata with weights in the max-plus semiring are considered. The main result is: it is decidable in an effective way whether a series that is recognized by a finitely ambiguous max-plus automaton is unambiguous, or is sequential. A…
A decidability proof for bisimulation equivalence of first-order grammars is given. It is an alternative proof for a result by S\'enizergues (1998, 2005) that subsumes his affirmative solution of the famous decidability question for…
Responsible use of Authorship Verification (AV) systems not only requires high accuracy but also interpretable solutions. More importantly, for systems to be used to make decisions with real-world consequences requires the model's…
We introduce a new computational model for data streams: asymptotically exact streaming algorithms. These algorithms have an approximation ratio that tends to one as the length of the stream goes to infinity while the memory used by the…
Altenbernd, Thomas and W\"ohrle have considered acceptance of languages of infinite two-dimensional words (infinite pictures) by finite tiling systems, with usual acceptance conditions, such as the B\"uchi and Muller ones [1]. It was proved…
Using end-to-end models for speech translation (ST) has increasingly been the focus of the ST community. These models condense the previously cascaded systems by directly converting sound waves into translated text. However, cascaded models…
The problem of lossless fixed-rate streaming coding of discrete memoryless sources with side information at the decoder is studied. A random time-varying tree-code is used to sequentially bin strings and a Stack Algorithm with a variable…
We study the problem of generating an approximately i.i.d. string at the output of a discrete memoryless channel using a limited amount of randomness at its input in presence of causal noiseless feedback. Feedback does not decrease the…
Conventionally, posterior matching is investigated in channel coding and block encoding contexts -- the source symbols are equiprobably distributed and are entirely known by the encoder before the transmission. In this paper, we consider a…
Functional transductions realized by two-way transducers (equivalently, by streaming transducers and by MSO transductions) are the natural and standard notion of "regular" mappings from words to words. It was shown recently (LICS'13) that…
