We study the problem of enumerating Tarski fixed points on finite lattices. We derive query complexity lower bounds for finding three or more Tarski fixed points of isotone maps and the subclasses of increasing and decreasing isotone maps.…

The fundamental sparsest cut problem takes as input a graph $G$ together with the edge costs and demands, and seeks a cut that minimizes the ratio between the costs and demands across the cuts. For $n$-node graphs~$G$ of treewidth~$k$,…

Is there a general theorem that tells us when we can hope for exponential speedups from quantum algorithms, and when we cannot? In this paper, we make two advances toward such a theorem, in the black-box model where most quantum algorithms…
