Uniform Hardness Amplification in NP via Monotone Codes
We consider the problem of amplifying uniform average-case hardness of languages in NP, where hardness is with respect to BPP algorithms. We introduce the notion of monotone error...

The Equivalence of Sampling and Searching
In a sampling problem, we are given an input x {0, 1} n , and asked to sample approximately from a probability distribution Dx over poly (n)-bit strings. In a search problem, we ...

Maximum Flows and Parametric Shortest Paths in Planar Graphs
We observe that the classical maximum flow problem in any directed planar graph G can be reformulated as a parametric shortest path problem in the oriented dual graph G . This ref...
