Water and Balls and Cups and Bin

Martin Farach-Colton ( Rutgers University, USA )

In this talk, I’ll consider new variants of Balls and Bins and old variants of Cup Emptying, in which one player adds water to a set of cups and one player empties water from the cups. I’ll show what these games can tell us about external-memory data structures.

Based on SODA’19 and STOC’19 papers.
