Seminar Details

Towards Optimal Randomness Extractors and Ramsey Graphs

  • Start Date: October 25, 2017
  • Event Start Time: 11:00 AM
  • Event End Time: 12:00 PM
  • Seminar Series: Theoretical Computer Science Seminar
  • Presenter(s): Eshan Chattopadhyay - Institute for Advanced Study
  • Event Location: Conference Room 301 | Rutgers University | CoRE Building | 96 Frelinghuysen Road
  • Presentation Type: Stand Alone Presentation
  • Abstract:

    I will survey some of the recent exciting progress on explicit constructions of randomness extractors for independent sources. Many of the new constructions rely on explicit constructions of newly introduced pseudorandom primitives, and there remains scope of finding better explicit constructions of these primitives. I will also discuss some possible approaches for constructing optimal Ramsey graphs and Extractors.
