We present a paradigm for constructing approximate quantum circuits from reversible classical circuits that operate on many possible encodings of an input and send almost all encodings of that input to an encoding of the correct output. We…
We give an algorithm that takes a directed graph $G$ undergoing $m$ edge insertions with lengths in $[1, W]$, and maintains $(1+\epsilon)$-approximate shortest path distances from a fixed source $s$ to all other vertices. The algorithm is…
We give an $\tilde{O}(n^{7/5} \log (nC))$-time algorithm to compute a minimum-cost maximum cardinality matching (optimal matching) in $K_h$-minor free graphs with $h=O(1)$ and integer edge weights having magnitude at most $C$. This improves…

A spanner of a graph is a subgraph that preserves lengths of shortest paths up to a multiplicative distortion. For every $k$, a spanner with size $O(n^{1+1/k})$ and stretch $(2k+1)$ can be constructed by a simple centralized greedy…
We give new bounds on the circuit complexity of the quantum Fourier transform (QFT). We give an upper bound of O(log n + log log (1/epsilon)) on the circuit depth for computing an approximation of the QFT with respect to the modulus 2^n…
The problem of finding a minimal circuit to implement a given function is one of the oldest in electronics. It is known to be NP-hard. Still, many tools exist to find sub-optimal circuits to implement a function. In electronics, such tools…
The Path Contraction and Cycle Contraction problems take as input an undirected graph $G$ with $n$ vertices, $m$ edges and an integer $k$ and determine whether one can obtain a path or a cycle, respectively, by performing at most $k$ edge…
Inaccurate circuits make possible the conservation of limited resources, such as energy. But effective design of such circuits requires an understanding of resulting tradeoffs between accuracy and design parameters, such as voltages and…
Only by formal verification approaches functional correctness can be ensured. While for many circuits fast verification is possible, in other cases the approaches fail. In general no efficient algorithms can be given, since the underlying…
We consider coding schemes for computationally bounded channels, which can introduce an arbitrary set of errors as long as (a) the fraction of errors is bounded with high probability by a parameter $p$ and (b) the process which adds the…
We present a combinatorial method for the min-cost flow problem and prove that its expected running time is bounded by $\tilde O(m^{3/2})$. This matches the best known bounds, which previously have only been achieved by numerical algorithms…
Maintaining and updating shortest paths information in a graph is a fundamental problem with many applications. As computations on dense graphs can be prohibitively expensive, and it is preferable to perform the computations on a sparse…
An orientable sequence of order $n$ is a cyclic binary sequence such that each length-$n$ substring appears at most once \emph{in either direction}. Maximal length orientable sequences are known only for $n\leq 7$, and a trivial upper bound…
