The discrete isoperimetric inequality states that among all n -gons with a fixed area, the regular n -gon has the least perimeter. We prove analogues of the discrete isoperimetric inequality (involving circumradius or inradius) for cyclic…

We prove an exponential separation for the sample complexity between the standard PAC-learning model and a version of the Equivalence-Query-learning model. We then show that this separation has interesting implications for adversarial…
