Abstract
Using $\varepsilon$-bias spaces over $\F_2$, we show that the Remote Point Problem (RPP), introduced by Alon et al \cite{APY09}, has an $\NC^2$ algorithm (achieving the same parameters as \cite{APY09}). We study a generalization of the Remote Point Problem to groups: we replace $\F_2^n$ by $\mcG^n$ for an arbitrary fixed group $\mcG$. When $\mcG$ is Abelian we give an $\NC^2$ algorithm for RPP, again using $\varepsilon$-bias spaces. For nonabelian $\mcG$, we give a deterministic polynomial-time algorithm for RPP. We also show the connection to construction of expanding generator sets for the group $\mcG^n$. All our algorithms for the RPP achieve essentially the same parameters as \cite{APY09}.
