For a discrete time quantum walk (QW) on the $N$-cycle, allowing for decoherence on the coin, we derive a number of new results, including an explicit formula for the position probability distribution. For a QW of this type, we show that…

We study the problem of reconstructing a perfect matching $M^*$ hidden in a randomly weighted $n\times n$ bipartite graph. The edge set includes every node pair in $M^*$ and each of the $n(n-1)$ node pairs not in $M^*$ independently with…

Hierarchical cooperation has recently been shown to achieve better throughput scaling than classical multihop schemes under certain assumptions on the channel model in static wireless networks. However, the end-to-end delay of this scheme…

We study regular expression membership testing: Given a regular expression of size $m$ and a string of size $n$, decide whether the string is in the language described by the regular expression. Its classic $O(nm)$ algorithm is one of the…

Delay-reliability (D-R), and throughput-delay-reliability (T-D-R) tradeoffs in an ad hoc network are derived for single hop and multi-hop transmission with automatic repeat request (ARQ) on each hop. The delay constraint is modeled by…

Given a simple, unweighted, undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ with $|V|=n$ and $|E|=m$, and parameters $0 < \varepsilon, \delta <1$, along with \texttt{Degree}, \texttt{Neighbour}, \texttt{Edge} and \texttt{RandomEdge} query access to $G$, we…

A general open problem in networking is: what are the fundamental limits to the performance that is achievable with some given amount of resources? More specifically, if each node in the network has information about only its $1$-hop…

We consider the distribution of the top eigenvector $\widehat{v}$ of a spiked matrix model of the form $H = \theta vv^* + W$, in the supercritical regime where $H$ has an outlier eigenvalue of comparable magnitude to $\|W\|$. We show that,…

Consider updates arriving online in which the $t$th input is $(i_t,d_t)$, where $i_t$'s are thought of as IDs of users. Informally, a randomized function $f$ is {\em differentially private} with respect to the IDs if the probability…

The Swapped Dragonfly with M routers per group and K global ports per router is denoted D3(K;M) [1]. It has n=KMM routers and is a partially populated Dragonfly. A Swapped Dragonfly with K and M restricted is studied in this paper. There…

Hash tables are ubiquitous in computer science for efficient access to large datasets. However, there is always a need for approaches that offer compact memory utilisation without substantial degradation of lookup performance. Cuckoo…

An oracle chooses a function $f$ from the set of $n$ bits strings to itself, which is either a randomly chosen permutation or a randomly chosen function. When queried by an $n$-bit string $w$, the oracle computes $f(w)$, truncates the $m$…

We provide more sample-efficient versions of some basic routines in quantum data analysis, along with simpler proofs. Particularly, we give a quantum "Threshold Search" algorithm that requires only $O((\log^2 m)/\epsilon^2)$ samples of a…

Existence of a perfect matching in a random bipartite digraph with bipartition $(V_1, V_2)$, $|V_i|=n$, is studied. The graph is generated in two rounds of random selections of a potential matching partner such that the average number of…

We study the the following question in Random Graphs. We are given two disjoint sets $L,R$ with $|L|=n=\alpha m$ and $|R|=m$. We construct a random graph $G$ by allowing each $x\in L$ to choose $d$ random neighbours in $R$. The question…

We consider an $n$ agents distributed optimization problem with imperfect information characterized in a parametric sense, where the unknown parameter can be solved by a distinct distributed parameter learning problem. Though each agent…

The Leftover Hash Lemma states that the output of a two-universal hash function applied to an input with sufficiently high entropy is almost uniformly random. In its standard formulation, the lemma refers to a notion of randomness that is…

Random 1/2-disk routing in wireless ad-hoc networks is a localized geometric routing scheme in which each node chooses the next relay randomly among the nodes within its transmission range and in the general direction of the destination. We…

Given a collection of strings, each with an associated probability of occurrence, the guesswork of each of them is their position in a list ordered from most likely to least likely, breaking ties arbitrarily. Guesswork is central to several…

In this paper, we study a distributed learning problem constrained by constant communication bits. Specifically, we consider the distributed hypothesis testing (DHT) problem where two distributed nodes are constrained to transmit a constant…
