A blue mushroom cloud fills the page, its contour traced by the
comet-like tails of shrieking heads whose gaping mouths spew out
furious curses in a rain of profanity over needle-stiff bodies
littering the ground. This lecture by Mignon Nixon...
The goal of the Balanced Separator problem is to find a balanced
cut in a given graph G(V,E), while minimizing the number of edges
that cross the cut. It is a fundamental problem with applications
in clustering, image segmentation, community...
We study the list-decodability of multiplicity codes.
These codes, which are based on evaluations of high-degree
polynomials and their derivatives, have rate approaching 1 while
simultaneously allowing for sublinear-time error-correction. In
this...
Heegaard Floer homology groups were recently introduced by
Ozsvath and Szabo to study properties of 3-manifolds and knots in
them. The definition of the invariants rests on delicate
holomorphic geometry, making the actual computations
cumbersome...
