    • Bulk universality of sparse random matrices 

      Huang, Jiaoyang; Landon, Benjamin; Yau, Horng-Tzer (AIP Publishing, 2015)
      We consider the adjacency matrix of the ensemble of Erdős-Rényi random graphs which consists of graphs on N vertices in which each edge occurs independently with probability p. We prove that in the regime pN ≫ 1, these ...

      Elmalech, Avshalom; Grosz, Barbara J. (2017)
      Crowdsourcing platforms were initially designed to recruit people to perform tasks that were simple cognitively but difficult for computers. One challenge in these settings is to identify an incentive mechanism for ...
