A Distributed Augmenting Path Approach for the Bottleneck Assignment Problem

Tony Alan Wood

We develop an algorithm to solve the bottleneck assignment problem (BAP) that is amenable to having computation distributed over a network of agents. This consists of exploring how each component of the algorithm can be distributed, with a focus on one com ...

The statistical complexity of early-stopped mirror descent

Tomas Vaskevicius

Recently there has been a surge of interest in understanding implicit regularization properties of iterative gradient-based optimization algorithms. In this paper, we study the statistical guarantees on the excess risk achieved by early-stopped unconstrain ...

Friction and fracture: richness and complexity in dynamic rupture

Thibault Didier Roch

Understanding how things break and slide is of paramount importance to describe the dynamics of a broad range of physical systems. This includes day-to-day problems such as the breaking of a glass of wine or the sliding of skis on snow, but also engineerin ...

Nucleation, propagation, and scale dependence of laboratory frictional ruptures; implications for earthquake mechanics

Federica Paglialunga

Earthquakes are natural phenomena that cause ground shaking and damage to people and infrastructures. Despite significant progress achieved in understanding how earthquakes start, propagate, and arrest, many aspects of their physics and mechanics remain no ...

Why computational complexity may set impenetrable barriers for epistemic reductionism

Michael Herzog, Adrien Christophe Doerig, Christian Sachse

According to physicalism, everything is physical or metaphysically connected to the physical. If physicalism were true, it seems that we should - in principle - be able to reduce the descriptions and explanations of special sciences to physical ones, for e ...

Decision support for the design of integrated biorefineries

Julia Granacher

A shift from fossil-based energy and products to more sustainable alternatives is essential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and associated climate change impacts. Biomass represents a promising alternative for providing fuels and carbon-based products w ...

Spatial Isolation Implies Zero Knowledge Even in a Quantum World

Alessandro Chiesa

Zero knowledge plays a central role in cryptography and complexity. The seminal work of Ben-Or et al. (STOC 1988) shows that zero knowledge can be achieved unconditionally for any language in NEXP, as long as one is willing to make a suitable physical assu ...
