Optimal Las Vegas reduction from one-way set reconciliation to error correction
Suppose we have two players A and C, where player A has a string s[0..u−1] and player C has a string t[0..u−1] and none of the two players knows the other’s string. Assume that s and t are both over an integer alphabet [σ], where the first string contains n non-zero entries. We would wish to answer to the following basic question. Assuming that s and t differ in at most k positions, how many bi...
متن کاملOptimal Parallelization of Las Vegas Algorithms
Let A be a Las Vegas algorithm, i.e., A is a randomized algorithm that always produces the correct answer when it stops but whose running time is a random variable. In 1] a method was developed for minimizing the expected time required to obtain an answer from A using sequential strategies which simulate A as follows: run A for a xed amount of time t 1 , then run A independently for a xed amoun...
متن کاملOptimal Speedup of Las Vegas Algorithms
Let A be a Las Vegas algorithm, i.e., A is a randomized algorithm that always produces the correct answer when it stops but whose running time is a random variable. We consider the problem of minimizing the expected time required to obtain an answer from A using strategies which simulate A as follows: run A for a fixed amount of time t1 , then run A independently for a fixed amount of time t2 ,...
متن کاملOn the Power of Las Vegas for One-Way Communication Complexity, OBDDs, and Finite Automata
The study of the computational power of randomized computations is one of the central tasks of complexity theory. The main goal of this paper is the comparison of the power of Las Vegas computation and deterministic respectively nondeterministic computation. We investigate the power of Las Vegas computation for the complexity measures of one-way communication, ordered binary decision diagrams, ...
متن کاملLeaving Las Vegas: Exposure to Las Vegas and risk of suicide.
Residents of Las Vegas, Nevada have much higher suicide rates than residents of other metropolitan counties in the USA. Whether the risk of suicide among visitors to Las Vegas is also significantly elevated has been difficult to assess because person-time denominator information is not available. We used a case-control design to examine the association between exposure to Las Vegas and risk of ...
