Lower bounds

1992
Abstract We now tum to the problem of finding lower bounds for Poisson approximation. Although the Stein–Chen method is widely applicable, it would be much less interesting if it did not give accurate estimates, at least in the sense that the upper bounds it gave were of the right order of magnitude.

On lower bounded lattices

Algebra Universalis, 2001
The authors study the hierarchy of properties that define lower bounded lattices within the class of all finite lattices. A lattice \(L\) is lower bounded if any homomorphism \(h\) from a finitely generated lattice \(K\) into \(L\) is lower bounded, i.e.\ if \(\{ x\in K\); \(a\leq h(x) \}\) is either empty or has a least element whenever \(a\in h(K)\).

Quadratic and Near-Quadratic Lower Bounds for the CONGEST Model

International Symposium on Distributed Computing, 2017
We present the first super-linear lower bounds for natural graph problems in the CONGEST model, answering a long-standing open question. Specifically, we show that any exact computation of a minimum vertex cover or a maximum independent set requires ...

Lower Bounds for Shellsort

Journal of Algorithms, 1997
Summary: We show lower bounds on the worst-case complexity of Shellsort. In particular, we give a fairly simple proof of an \(\Omega (n(\text{lg}^2n/(\text{lg lg } n)^2)\) lower bound for the size of Shellsort sorting networks for arbitrary increment sequences.

Lower Bounds for Kernelization

2014
Kernelization is the process of transforming the input of a combinatorial decision problem to an equivalent instance, with a guarantee on the size of the resulting instances as a function of a parameter. Recent techniques from the field of fixed parameter complexity and tractability allow to give lower bounds for such kernels.

Kernelization, Exponential Lower Bounds

2014
Research on kernelization is motivated in two ways. First, when solving a hard (e.g., NP-hard) problem in practice, a common approach is to first preprocess the instance at hand before running more time-consuming methods (like integer linear programming, branch and bound, etc.). The following is a natural question.

Kernelization Lower Bounds

2013
We introduce powerful new techniques to show that FPT parameterized problems do not have polynomial-sized many : 1 kernels, under standard assumptions of classical complexity theory. A new completeness program for exploring the issue for Turing kernelization is also described.
