The Bernstein center plays a role in the representation theory
of locally profinite groups analogous to that played by the center
of the group ring in the representation theory of finite groups.
When F is a finite extension of Q_p, we discuss...
A "sparsifier" of a graph is a weighted subgraph for which every
cut has approximately the same value as the original graph, up to a
factor of (1 +/- eps). Sparsifiers were first studied by Benczur
and Karger (1996). They have wide-ranging...
Recursive Majority-of-three (3-Maj) is a deceptively simple
problem in the study of randomized decision tree complexity. The
precise complexity of this problem is unknown, while that of the
similarly defined Recursive NAND tree is completely...
