Expander: old and new applications and problems

Avi Wigderson
Institute for Advanced Study

The talk will describe the use of expanders in (at least) two problems. The first is the construction of (near-) Euclidean sections of L1-spaces (related to compressed sensing and real-valued codes). The second is designing randomness-efficient local group-homomorphism testers. Both raise natural open questions.
