Many classical algorithms are known for computing the convex hull of a set of $n$ point in $\mathbb{R}^2$ using $O(n)$ space. For large point sets, whose size exceeds the size of the working space, these algorithms cannot be directly used.…

Motivated by recent works on streaming algorithms for constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs), we define and analyze oblivious algorithms for the Max-$k$AND problem. This generalizes the definition by Feige and Jozeph (Algorithmica '15) of…
A longstanding observation, which was partially proven in \cite{LNW14,AHLW16}, is that any turnstile streaming algorithm can be implemented as a linear sketch (the reverse is trivially true). We study the relationship between turnstile…
We give efficient deterministic one-pass streaming algorithms for finding an ellipsoidal approximation of a symmetric convex polytope. The algorithms are near-optimal in that their approximation factors differ from that of the optimal…

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…
