We show that if $f$ is an integer-valued function with spectral norm at most $M$ then there are subspaces $V_1,\dots,V_L$ and signs $\sigma_1,\dots,\sigma_L \in \{-1,1\}$ such that $f=\sigma_1 1_{V_1} + \dots + \sigma_L 1_{V_L}$ where $L <…

Self-stabilization is a general paradigm to provide forward recovery capabilities to distributed systems and networks. Intuitively, a protocol is self-stabilizing if it is able to recover without external intervention from any catastrophic…
