A central challenge in quantum error correction is identifying powerful quantum codes tailored to specific hardware and determining their error thresholds above which quantum information is unprotected. This problem is hard because we…
Statistical query (SQ) algorithms are algorithms that have access to an {\em SQ oracle} for the input distribution $D$ instead of i.i.d.~ samples from $D$. Given a query function $\phi:X \rightarrow [-1,1]$, the oracle returns an estimate…
In this paper we study the connectivity problem for wireless networks under the Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR) model. Given a set of radio transmitters distributed in some area, we seek to build a directed strongly connected…
We study the maintenance of a $(\Delta+C)$-edge-coloring ($C\ge 1$) in a fully dynamic graph $G$ with maximum degree $\Delta$. We focus on minimizing \emph{recourse} which equals the number of recolored edges per edge updates. We present a…
We present a new algorithm for the exact uniform sampling of proper \(k\)-colorings of a graph on \(n\) vertices with maximum degree~\(\Delta\). The algorithm is based on partial rejection sampling (PRS) and introduces a soft relaxation of…
We consider the range mode problem where given a sequence and a query range in it, we want to find items with maximum frequency in the range. We give time- and space- efficient algorithms for this problem. Our algorithms are efficient for…
We prove improved inapproximability results for hypergraph coloring using the low-degree polynomial code (aka, the 'short code' of Barak et. al. [FOCS 2012]) and the techniques proposed by Dinur and Guruswami [FOCS 2013] to incorporate this…
Color refinement is a crucial subroutine in symmetry detection in theory as well as practice. It has further applications in machine learning and in computational problems from linear algebra. While tight lower bounds for the worst case…
We consider the problem of reporting convex hull points in an orthogonal range query in two dimensions. Formally, let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$. A point lies on the convex hull of a point set $S$ if it lies on the…
Quantum error correction is an essential ingredient for reliable quantum computation for theoretically provable quantum speedup. Topological color codes, one of the quantum error correction codes, have an advantage against the surface codes…
Exceptional points are spectral degeneracies of non-Hermitian systems where both eigenfrequencies and eigenmodes coalesce. The eigenfrequency sensitivities near an exceptional point are significantly enhanced, whereby they diverge directly…
Given an edge-colored graph, the goal of the proportional fair matching problem is to find a maximum weight matching while ensuring proportional representation (with respect to the number of edges) of each color. The colors may correspond…
We study the colorful sum of radii problem, where the input is a point set $P$ partitioned into classes $P_1, P_2, \dots, P_\omega$, along with per-class outlier bounds $m_1, m_2, \dots, m_\omega$, summing to $m$. The goal is to select a…
Let $\mathcal{D}$ be a collection of $D$ documents, which are strings over an alphabet of size $\sigma$, of total length $n$. We describe a data structure that uses linear space and and reports $k$ most relevant documents that contain a…

Fast distributed algorithms that output a feasible solution for constraint satisfaction problems, such as maximal independent sets, have been heavily studied. There has been much less research on distributed sampling problems, where one…
In this paper we study two geometric data structure problems in the special case when input objects or queries are fat rectangles. We show that in this case a significant improvement compared to the general case can be achieved. We describe…
We present a deterministic distributed algorithm that computes a $(2\Delta-1)$-edge-coloring, or even list-edge-coloring, in any $n$-node graph with maximum degree $\Delta$, in $O(\log^7 \Delta \log n)$ rounds. This answers one of the…
In this Letter, we propose a new approach to process high-dimensional quantum information encoded in a photon frequency domain. In contrast to previous approaches based on nonlinear optical processes, no active control of photon energy is…
We consider the problem of recovering a $K$-sparse complex signal $x$ from $m$ intensity measurements. We propose the PhaseCode algorithm, and show that in the noiseless case, PhaseCode can recover an arbitrarily-close-to-one fraction of…
