Slashing: Panacea or Pandora's Box?Scale or Die at Accelerate 20252025-05-19
Defines when slashing actually enforces correctness: two papers claim provable slashing for consistency and the first theory of accountable liveness. Key…

FPT Algorithms for Finding Near-Cliques in $c$-Closed GraphsITCS 20222022-01-31
Proves fixed-parameter algorithms that enumerate specific near-cliques in c-closed graphs, with concrete bounds: FPT enumeration of maximal (d+1)-plexes in…

Incentive-Compatibility in Blockchains and Mining PoolsLarge-Scale Consensus and Blockchains 20192019-10-22
Two formal results: an axiomatic, budget‑balanced characterization shows the only rule that is Sybil‑proof, collusion‑proof and anonymous is the proportional…

How Hard Is Inference for Structured Prediction?Learning, Algorithm Design and Beyond Worst-Case Analysis2016-11-14
Asks whether recovering binary vertex labels from noisy edge parity is possible and when; proves the simple minimize-disagreements (correlation‑clustering)…

Outposts Between Worst- and Average Case Analysis: A Case Study in Auction DesignUncertainty in Computation 20162016-10-04
Worst-case analysis gives no guidance for reserve prices, while Bayesian (average-case) theory (Myerson) yields closed-form optimal auctions and in the iid…

Distribution-Free Models of Social and Information NetworksOptimization and Decision-Making Under Uncertainty (Simons Institute, September 2016)2016-09-19
Proposes two distribution-free graph classes motivated by triadic closure and proves concrete positive results. For triangle-dense graphs (global transitivity…

The Sample Complexity of Revenue MaximizationComplexity and Simplicity in Economics (Simons Institute workshop, 2015)2015-10-12
Proposes using the statistical learning notion pseudo-dimension to measure mechanism complexity and shows low pseudo-dimension implies polynomial sample…

Near-Optimal Equilibria IEconomics and Computation Boot Camp 20152015-08-24
Gives a concrete toolbox that proves worst-case equilibrium efficiency via a lambda–mu smoothness inequality, then uses simple algebra and edge- or bidder-wise…
Talk
Near-Optimal Equilibria IIEconomics and Computation Boot Camp 20152015-08-24
Proves a smoothness inequality showing a single-item first-price auction achieves lambda=1/2 (improvable to ~0.63), uses a composition theorem so composition…
