Bipartite Random Graphs and Cuckoo Hashing [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2006
The aim of this paper is to extend the analysis of Cuckoo Hashing of Devroye and Morin in 2003. In particular we make several asymptotic results much more precise.

A coupon collector's problem with bonuses [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2006
In this article, we study a variant of the coupon collector's problem introducing a notion of a \emphbonus. Suppose that there are c different types of coupons made up of bonus coupons and ordinary coupons, and that a collector gets every coupon with ...

Sketching Cuts in Graphs and Hypergraphs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Sketching and streaming algorithms are in the forefront of current research directions for cut problems in graphs. In the streaming model, we show that $(1-\epsilon)$-approximation for Max-Cut must use $n^{1-O(\epsilon)}$ space; moreover, beating $4/5 ...

The Diameter of the Minimum Spanning Tree of a Complete Graph [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2006
Let $X_1,\ldots,X_{n\choose 2}$ be independent identically distributed weights for the edges of $K_n$. If $X_i \neq X_j$ for$ i \neq j$, then there exists a unique minimum weight spanning tree $T$ of $K_n$ with these edge weights.

On the Ehrenfeucht-Mycielski Balance Conjecture [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2007
In 1992, A. Ehrenfeucht and J. Mycielski defined a seemingly pseudorandom binary sequence which has since been termed the EM-sequence. The balance conjecture for the EM-sequence, still open, is the conjecture that the sequence of EM-sequence initial ...

The Query-commit Problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In the query-commit problem we are given a graph where edges have distinct probabilities of existing. It is possible to query the edges of the graph, and if the queried edge exists then its endpoints are irrevocably matched.

Stokes polyhedra for $X$-shaped polyminos [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2012
Consider a pair of $\textit{interlacing regular convex polygons}$, each with $2(n + 2)$ vertices, which we will be referring to as $\textit{red}$ and $\textit{black}$ ones.

Hyperbolicity, degeneracy, and expansion of random intersection graphs

open access: yes, 2017
We establish the conditions under which several algorithmically exploitable structural features hold for random intersection graphs, a natural model for many real-world networks where edges correspond to shared attributes.

Space-Efficient DFS and Applications: Simpler, Leaner, Faster

open access: yes, 2018
The problem of space-efficient depth-first search (DFS) is reconsidered. A particularly simple and fast algorithm is presented that, on a directed or undirected input graph $G=(V,E)$ with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, carries out a DFS in $O(n+m)$ time ...

From Finite Automata to Regular Expressions and Back--A Summary on Descriptional Complexity

open access: yes, 2014
The equivalence of finite automata and regular expressions dates back to the seminal paper of Kleene on events in nerve nets and finite automata from 1956. In the present paper we tour a fragment of the literature and summarize results on upper and lower
