Plot points with coordinates where \(x\) and \(y\) are equal. Three points are sufficient, but more can be plotted. Draw a line through the plotted points. If \(x\) is positive, \(y\) is negative. If ...

Abstract: The multiplicative property is important for a linear secret sharing scheme (LSSS) to be used in constructing a multiparty computation (MPC) protocol. In general, an LSSS has to expand its ...

In this paper, we introduce a new simple but powerful general technique for the study of edge- and vertex-reinforced processes with super-linear reinforcement, based on the use of order statistics for ...

We present an Oe(m + n 1.5 )-time randomized algorithm for maximum cardinality bipartite matching and related problems (e.g. transshipment, negative-weight shortest paths, and optimal transport) on ...
