Algorithms for efficiently finding optimal alphabetic decision trees -- such as the Hu-Tucker algorithm -- are well established and commonly used. However, such algorithms generally assume that the cost per decision is uniform and thus…
We show how to build an alphabetic minimax tree for a sequence (W = w_1, >..., w_n) of real weights in (O (n d \log \log n)) time, where $d$ is the number of distinct integers (\lceil w_i \rceil). We apply this algorithm to building an…
The $k$-SUM problem is given $n$ input real numbers to determine whether any $k$ of them sum to zero. The problem is of tremendous importance in the emerging field of complexity theory within $P$, and it is in particular open whether it…
