This paper addresses the behavior of the Lov\'asz number for dense random circulant graphs. The Lov\'asz number is a well-known semidefinite programming upper bound on the independence number. Circulant graphs, an example of a Cayley graph,…

We extend classical methods of computational complexity to the realm of distributed computing, where they sometimes prove more effective than in their original context. Our focus is on decision problems in the LOCAL model, a setting in…

In a seminal paper, Kannan and Lov\'asz (1988) considered a quantity $\mu_{KL}(\Lambda,K)$ which denotes the best volume-based lower bound on the covering radius $\mu(\Lambda,K)$ of a convex body $K$ with respect to a lattice $\Lambda$.…
