[PDF][PDF] Small-bias probability spaces: Efficient constructions and applications

J Naor, M Naor - Proceedings of the twenty-second annual ACM …, 1990 - dl.acm.org
We show how to efficiently construct a small probability space on n binary random variables
such that for every subset, its parity is either zero or one with" almost" equal probability. They …

[PDF][PDF] Pseudorandom generators for space-bounded computations

N Nisan - Proceedings of the twenty-second annual ACM …, 1990 - dl.acm.org
Pseudorandom generators are constructed which convert O (SlogR) truly random bits to R
bits that appear random to any algorithm that runs in SPACE (S). In particular, any …

Chernoff–Hoeffding bounds for applications with limited independence

JP Schmidt, A Siegel, A Srinivasan - SIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics, 1995 - SIAM
Chernoff–Hoeffding (CH) bounds are fundamental tools used in bounding the tail
probabilities of the sums of bounded and independent random variables (rv's). We present a …

Randomized distributed edge coloring via an extension of the Chernoff--Hoeffding bounds

A Panconesi, A Srinivasan - SIAM Journal on Computing, 1997 - SIAM
Certain types of routing, scheduling, and resource-allocation problems in a distributed
setting can be modeled as edge-coloring problems. We present fast and simple randomized …

Faster Vizing and near-Vizing edge coloring algorithms

S Assadi - Proceedings of the 2025 Annual ACM-SIAM …, 2025 - SIAM
Vizing's celebrated theorem states that every simple graph with maximum degree Δ admits a
(Δ+ 1) edge coloring which can be found in O (m· n) time on n-vertex m-edge graphs. This is …

Approximation algorithms for asymmetric TSP by decomposing directed regular multigraphs

H Kaplan, M Lewenstein, N Shafrir… - Journal of the ACM …, 2005 - dl.acm.org
A directed multigraph is said to be d-regular if the indegree and outdegree of every vertex is
exactly d. By Hall's theorem, one can represent such a multigraph as a combination of at …

The power of multi-step vizing chains

ABG Christiansen - Proceedings of the 55th Annual ACM Symposium on …, 2023 - dl.acm.org
Recent papers have addressed different variants of the (Δ+ 1)-edge-colouring problem by
concatenating or gluing together many Vizing chains to form what Bernshteyn coined multi …

Extensive throughput enhancement for 5G-enabled UAV swarm networking

J Wang, Y Liu, S Niu, H Song - IEEE Journal on Miniaturization …, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
The ubiquitous deployment of 5G New Radio (5G NR) accelerates the evolution in many
fields. With the enhancement of 5G NR, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) swarm networking …

On the distributed complexity of computing maximal matchings

M Hanckowiak, M Karonski, A Panconesi - SIAM Journal on Discrete …, 2001 - SIAM
We show that maximal matchings can be computed deterministically in O (log4 n) rounds in
the synchronous, message-passing model of computation. This is one of the very few cases …

On the complexity of distributed network decomposition

A Panconesi, A Srinivasan - Journal of Algorithms, 1996 - Elsevier
In this paper, we improve the bounds for computing a network decomposition distributively
and deterministically. Our algorithm computes an (nϵ (n), nϵ (n))-decomposition innO (ϵ …
