We study the problem of maximizing the broadcast rate in peer-to-peer (P2P) systems under \emph{node degree bounds}, i.e., the number of neighbors a node can simultaneously connect to is upper-bounded. The problem is critical for supporting…

The MAX BISECTION problem seeks a maximum-size cut that evenly divides the vertices of a given undirected graph. An open problem raised by Austrin, Benabbas, and Georgiou is whether MAX BISECTION can be approximated as well as MAX CUT,…

We prove multi-pass streaming lower bounds for uniformity testing over a domain of size $2m$. The tester receives a stream of $n$ i.i.d. samples and must distinguish (i) the uniform distribution on $[2m]$ from (ii) a Paninski-style planted…
