CS 6815 - Pseudorandomness and Combinatorial Constructions

Fall. 4 credits. Student option grading.

Prerequisite: CS 4820.

E. Chattopadhyay.

Topics in computational complexity theory focusing on the use of randomness. Topics include pseudorandom generators, randomness extractors, and applications to explicit constructions of combinatorial objects. The course project will involve an in-depth study on a topic introduced in class (based on relevant research papers), with the expectation to produce a high quality survey article and a final presentation.
