We present a new method to propagate lower bounds on conditional probability distributions in conventional Bayesian networks. Our method guarantees to provide outer approximations of the exact lower bounds. A key advantage is that we can…
We consider a static data structure problem of computing a linear operator under cell-probe model. Given a linear operator $M \in \mathbb{F}_2^{m \times n}$, the goal is to pre-process a vector $X \in \mathbb{F}_2^n$ into a data structure…
We prove a lower bound of Omega(log n/loglog n) for the remote memory reference (RMR) complexity of abortable test-and-set (leader election) in the cache-coherent (CC) and the distributed shared memory (DSM) model. This separates the…
We develop a new technique for constructing sparse graphs that allow us to prove near-linear lower bounds on the round complexity of computing distances in the CONGEST model. Specifically, we show an $\widetilde{\Omega}(n)$ lower bound for…
This paper is concerned with the ordered statistic decoding with local constraints (LC-OSD) of binary linear block codes, which is a near maximum-likelihood decoding algorithm. Compared with the conventional OSD, the LC-OSD significantly…
In this paper, we try to further demonstrate that the models of random CSP instances proposed by [Xu and Li, 2000; 2003] are of theoretical and practical interest. Indeed, these models, called RB and RD, present several nice features.…
In this thesis we present several results in coding theory, concerning error-correcting codes and the Shannon capacity. 1. We give a general symmetry reduction of matrices occuring in semidefinite programs in coding theory. 2. We apply the…
Future quantum architectures are expected to be modular, with quantum processors connecting multiple quantum processing units (QPUs) via photonic interconnects. In topological quantum error correction, such as color codes, this creates seam…
Cellular networks are usually modeled by placing the base stations on a grid, with mobile users either randomly scattered or placed deterministically. These models have been used extensively but suffer from being both highly idealized and…
A line of work initiated by Fortnow in 1997 has proven model-independent time-space lower bounds for the $\mathsf{SAT}$ problem and related problems within the polynomial-time hierarchy. For example, for the $\mathsf{SAT}$ problem, the…

The problem of establishing out-of-sample bounds for the values of an unkonwn ground-truth function is considered. Kernels and their associated Hilbert spaces are the main formalism employed herein along with an observational model where…
This paper considers an underlay pulsed radar-cellular spectrum sharing scenario, where the cellular system uses pilot-aided demodulation, statistical channel state information (S-CSI) estimation and limited feedback schemes. Under a…
Reversible circuits for modular multiplication $Cx$%$M$ with $x<M$ arise as components of modular exponentiation in Shor's quantum number-factoring algorithm. However, existing generic constructions focus on asymptotic gate count and…
We prove several new results about bounded uniform and small-bias distributions. A main message is that, small-bias, even perturbed with noise, does not fool several classes of tests better than bounded uniformity. We prove this for…
In this paper we investigate the problem of building a static data structure that represents a string s using space close to its compressed size, and allows fast access to individual characters of s. This type of structures was investigated…
A recent result of Ghentiyala, Li, and Stephens-Davidowitz (ECCC TR 25-210) shows that any language reducible to the Range Avoidance Problem via deterministic or randomized Turing reductions is contained in AM $\cap$ coAM. In this note, we…
We study distribution-free property testing and learning problems where the unknown probability distribution is a product distribution over $\mathbb{R}^d$. For many important classes of functions, such as intersections of halfspaces,…
While standard cell layouts are drawn with minimum design rules for maximum benefit of design area shrinkage, the complicated design rules begin to cause difficulties with signal routes accessing the pins in standard cell layouts. Multiple…
The isolation lemma of Mulmuley et al \cite{MVV87} is an important tool in the design of randomized algorithms and has played an important role in several nontrivial complexity upper bounds. On the other hand, polynomial identity testing is…
