On the configuration LP for maximum budgeted allocation

Ola Nils Anders Svensson, Christos Kalaitzis, Lukas Polacek, Aleksander Madry

We study the maximum budgeted allocation problem, i.e., the problem of selling a set of m indivisible goods to n players, each with a separate budget, such that we maximize the collected revenue. Since the natural assignment LP is known to have an integral ...

Asynchronous Byzantine Agreement with Optimal Resilience and Linear Complexity

Cheng Wang

Given a system with

n > 3t + 1

processes, where

t

is the tolerated number of faulty ones, we present a fast asynchronous Byzantine agreement protocol that can reach agreement in

O(t)

expected running time. This improves the

O(n^2)

Instant Field-aligned Meshes

Wenzel Alban Jakob

We present a novel approach to remesh a surface into an isotropic triangular or quad-dominant mesh using a unified local smoothing operator that optimizes both the edge orientations and vertex positions in the output mesh. Our algorithm produces meshes wit ...

Paris (Monde) : géographies du 13 novembre 2015

Jacques Lévy

The 13th November 2015 terrorist attacks in Paris call for a multi-scalar and multimetric geographical analysis. From Paris’ « intimate hypercentre » to the « global low-intensity civil war », this event embraces the entire complexity of the present contem ...

Local discontinuous Galerkin methods for fractional ordinary differential equations

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven

This paper discusses the upwinded local discontinuous Galerkin methods for the one-term/multi-term fractional ordinary differential equations (FODEs). The natural upwind choice of the numerical fluxes for the initial value problem for FODEs ensures stabili ...

A Tale of Two Quasi-Polynomial Algorithms

Robert Granger

In 2013 the Discrete Logarithm Problem in finite fields of small characteristic enjoyed a rapid series of developments, starting with the heuristic polynomial-time relation generation method due to Gologlu, Granger, McGuire and Zumbragel, and culminating w ...

Tight Bounds for Asynchronous Renaming

Rachid Guerraoui, Seth Gilbert, Dan Alistarh

This article presents the first tight bounds on the time complexity of shared-memory renaming, a fundamental problem in distributed computing in which a set of processes need to pick distinct identifiers from a small namespace. We first prove an individual ...

XOR-Based Encoding With Instantaneous Decoding for the Broadcast Erasure Channel With Feedback: The Three-User Case

We study the case of a three-user broadcast erasure channel with multiple unicast traffic sessions, where feedback from the users is fed back to the transmitter in the form of positive acknowledgment (ACK)/negative acknowledgment (NACK) messages. The capac ...

Environmental Influence on the Evolution of Morphological Complexity in Machines

Joshua Evan Auerbach

Whether, when, how, and why increased complexity evolves in biological populations is a longstanding open question. In this work we combine a recently developed method for evolving virtual organisms with an information-theoretic metric of morphological com ...

Route choice models: bringing behavioral aspects into shortest path

Michel Bierlaire

An introduction to route choice models will be provided. The starting point will be a discussion of behavioral limitations of the shortest path algorithm. The theoretical assumptions necessary to derive behavioral models will be introduced. The complexity ...
