We consider time-space tradeoffs for exactly computing frequency
moments and order statistics over sliding windows.
Given an input of length $2n-1$, the task is to output the function of
each window of length $n$, giving $n$ outputs in total.
Computations over sliding windows are related to direct sum problems

We use self-reduction methods to prove strong information lower bounds on two of the most studied functions in the communication complexity literature: Gap Hamming Distance (GHD) and Inner Product (IP). In our first result we affirm the conjecture that the information cost of GHD is linear even under the uniform ... more >>>

We present a polynomial time dynamic programming algorithm for optimal partitions in the shortest path metric induced by a tree. This resolves, among other things, the exact complexity status of the optimal partition problems in one dimensional geometric metric settings. Our method of solution could be also of independent interest ... more >>>
