This is the first polynomial<br>improvement over the long-standing $O(n)$ update time, which can be trivially<br>obtained by periodic recomputation. Thus, we resolve the value version of a<br>major open question of the dynamic graph algorithms literature (see, e.g.,<br>[Gupta and Peng FOCS'13], [Bernstein and Stein SODA'16],[Behnezhad and Khanna<br>SODA'22]).<br> Our key technical component is the first sublinear algorithm for $(1,\epsilon<br>n)$-approximate maximum matching with sublinear running time on dense graphs.<br>All previous algorithms suffered a multiplicative approximation factor of at<br>least $1.499$ or assumed that the graph has a very small maximum degree.<br> %K Computer Science, Data Structures and Algorithms, cs.DS

%0 Report %A Blikstad, Joakim %A Kiss, Peter %+ External Organizations Algorithms and Complexity, MPI for Informatics, Max Planck Society %T Incremental (1 - &#949;)-approximate dynamic matching in O(poly(1/&#949;)) update time : %G eng %U http://hdl.handle.net/21.11116/0000-000C-A006-8 %U https://arxiv.org/abs/2302.08432 %D 2023 %X In the dynamic approximate maximum bipartite matching problem we are given<br>bipartite graph $G$ undergoing updates and our goal is to maintain a matching<br>of $G$ which is large compared the maximum matching size $\mu(G)$. We define a<br>dynamic matching algorithm to be $\alpha$ (respectively $(\alpha,<br>\beta)$)-approximate if it maintains matching $M$ such that at all times $|M |<br>\geq \mu(G) \cdot \alpha$ (respectively $|M| \geq \mu(G) \cdot \alpha -<br>\beta$).<br> We present the first deterministic $(1-\epsilon )$-approximate dynamic<br>matching algorithm with $O(poly(\epsilon ^{-1}))$ amortized update time for<br>graphs undergoing edge insertions. Previous solutions either required<br>super-constant [Gupta FSTTCS'14, Bhattacharya-Kiss-Saranurak SODA'23] or<br>exponential in $1/\epsilon $<br>[Grandoni-Leonardi-Sankowski-Schwiegelshohn-Solomon SODA'19] update time. Our<br>implementation is arguably simpler than the mentioned algorithms and its<br>description is self contained. Moreover, we show that if we allow for additive<br>$(1, \epsilon \cdot n)$-approximation our algorithm seamlessly extends to also<br>handle vertex deletions, on top of edge insertions. This makes our algorithm<br>one of the few small update time algorithms for $(1-\epsilon )$-approximate<br>dynamic matching allowing for updates both increasing and decreasing the<br>maximum matching size of $G$ in a fully dynamic manner.<br> %K Computer Science, Data Structures and Algorithms, cs.DS

While the utility of curvature has been theoretically and empirically confirmed in the context of manifolds and graphs, its generalization to the emerging domain of hypergraphs has remained largely unexplored. On graphs, Ollivier-Ricci curvature measures differences between random walks via Wasserstein distances, thus grounding a geometric concept in ideas from probability and optimal transport. We develop ORCHID, a flexible framework generalizing Ollivier-Ricci curvature to hypergraphs, and prove that the resulting curvatures have favorable theoretical properties. Through extensive experiments on synthetic and real-world hypergraphs from different domains, we demonstrate that ORCHID curvatures are both scalable and useful to perform a variety of hypergraph tasks in practice. %K Computer Science, Learning, cs.LG,cs.SI,Statistics, Machine Learning, stat.ML %B Eleventh International Conference on Learning Representations %I OpenReview.net %U https://openreview.net/forum?id=sPCKNl5qDps

We use pre-conditioned conjugate<br>gradient (PCG) to solve the system of linear equations. Our preconditioner is a<br>variant of the Approximate Cholesky factorization of Kyng and Sachdeva (FOCS<br>2016). Our factorization approach is simple: we eliminate matrix rows/columns<br>one at a time and update the remaining matrix using sampling to approximate the<br>outcome of complete Cholesky factorization. Unlike earlier approaches, our<br>sampling always maintains a connectivity in the remaining non-zero structure.<br>Our algorithm comes with a tuning parameter that upper bounds the number of<br>samples made per original entry. We implement our algorithm in Julia, providing<br>two versions, AC and AC2, that respectively use 1 and 2 samples per original<br>entry. We compare their single-threaded performance to that of current<br>state-of-the-art solvers Combinatorial Multigrid (CMG),<br>BoomerAMG-preconditioned Krylov solvers from HyPre and PETSc, Lean Algebraic<br>Multigrid (LAMG), and MATLAB's with Incomplete Cholesky Factorization (ICC).<br>Our evaluation uses a broad class of problems, including all large SDDM<br>matrices from the SuiteSparse collection and diverse programmatically generated<br>instances. Our experiments suggest that our algorithm attains a level of<br>robustness and reliability not seen before in SDDM solvers, while retaining<br>good performance across all instances. Our code and data are public, and we<br>provide a tutorial on how to replicate our tests. We hope that others will<br>adopt this suite of tests as a benchmark, which we refer to as SDDM2023.

Critical<br>bottlenecks are due to the computation of partition functions in the<br>denominator of softmax function as well as the multiplication of the softmax<br>matrix with the matrix of values. Our key observation is that the former can be<br>reduced to a variant of the kernel density estimation (KDE) problem, and an<br>efficient KDE solver can be further utilized to accelerate the latter via<br>subsampling-based fast matrix products. Our proposed KDEformer can approximate<br>the attention in sub-quadratic time with provable spectral norm bounds, while<br>all prior results merely provide entry-wise error bounds. Empirically, we<br>verify that KDEformer outperforms other attention approximations in terms of<br>accuracy, memory, and runtime on various pre-trained models. On BigGAN image<br>generation, we achieve better generative scores than the exact computation with<br>over $4\times$ speedup. For ImageNet classification with T2T-ViT, KDEformer<br>shows over $18\times$ speedup while the accuracy drop is less than $0.5\%$.<br> %K Computer Science, Learning, cs.LG,Computer Science, Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, cs.CV,Computer Science, Data Structures and Algorithms, cs.DS

Given a set of agents and indivisible goods, the goal is to<br>determine the existence of an allocation where no agent envies another<br>following the removal of any single good from the other agent's bundle. Since<br>the general problem has been illusive, progress is made on two fronts: $(i)$<br>proving existence when the number of agents is small, $(ii)$ proving existence<br>of relaxations of EFX. In this paper, we improve results on both fronts (and<br>simplify in one of the cases).<br> We prove the existence of EFX allocations with three agents, restricting only<br>one agent to have an MMS-feasible valuation function (a strict generalization<br>of nice-cancelable valuation functions introduced by Berger et al. which<br>subsumes additive, budget-additive and unit demand valuation functions). The<br>other agents may have any monotone valuation functions. Our proof technique is<br>significantly simpler and shorter than the proof by Chaudhury et al. on<br>existence of EFX allocations when there are three agents with additive<br>valuation functions and therefore more accessible.<br> Secondly, we consider relaxations of EFX allocations, namely, approximate-EFX<br>allocations and EFX allocations with few unallocated goods (charity). Chaudhury<br>et al. showed the existence of $(1-\epsilon)$-EFX allocation with<br>$O((n/\epsilon)^{\frac{4}{5}})$ charity by establishing a connection to a<br>problem in extremal combinatorics. We improve their result and prove the<br>existence of $(1-\epsilon)$-EFX allocations with $\tilde{O}((n/<br>\epsilon)^{\frac{1}{2}})$ charity. In fact, some of our techniques can be used<br>to prove improved upper-bounds on a problem in zero-sum combinatorics<br>introduced by Alon and Krivelevich.<br> %K Computer Science, Computer Science and Game Theory, cs.GT

We study instances, in<br>which all agents have 2-value additive valuations: The value of a good $g \in<br>G$ for an agent $i \in N$ is either $1$ or $s$, where $s$ is an odd multiple of<br>$\frac{1}{2}$ larger than one. We show that the problem is solvable in<br>polynomial time. Akrami et at. showed that this problem is solvable in<br>polynomial time if $s$ is integral and is NP-hard whenever $s = \frac{p}{q}$,<br>$p \in \mathbb{N}$ and $q\in \mathbb{N}$ are co-prime and $p > q \ge 3$. For<br>the latter situation, an approximation algorithm was also given. It obtains an<br>approximation ratio of at most $1.0345$. Moreover, the problem is APX-hard,<br>with a lower bound of $1.000015$ achieved at $\frac{p}{q} = \frac{5}{4}$. The<br>case $q = 2$ and odd $p$ was left open.<br> In the case of integral $s$, the problem is separable in the sense that the<br>optimal allocation of the heavy goods (= value $s$ for some agent) is<br>independent of the number of light goods (= value $1$ for all agents). This<br>leads to an algorithm that first computes an optimal allocation of the heavy<br>goods and then adds the light goods greedily. This separation no longer holds<br>for $s = \frac{3}{2}$; a simple example is given in the introduction. Thus an<br>algorithm has to consider heavy and light goods together. This complicates<br>matters considerably. Our algorithm is based on a collection of improvement<br>rules that transfers any allocation into an optimal allocation and exploits a<br>connection to matchings with parity constraints.<br> %K Computer Science, Computer Science and Game Theory, cs.GT

Envy-freeness up to any good (EFX) criteria -- which<br>requires that no agent prefers the bundle of another agent after removal of any<br>single good -- is known to be a remarkable analogous of envy-freeness when the<br>resource is a set of indivisible goods. In this paper, we investigate EFX<br>notion for the restricted additive valuations, that is, every good has some<br>non-negative value, and every agent is interested in only some of the goods.<br> We introduce a natural relaxation of EFX called EFkX which requires that no<br>agent envies another agent after removal of any $k$ goods. Our main<br>contribution is an algorithm that finds a complete (i.e., no good is discarded)<br>EF2X allocation for the restricted additive valuations. In our algorithm we<br>devise new concepts, namely "configuration" and "envy-elimination" that might<br>be of independent interest.<br> We also use our new tools to find an EFX allocation for restricted additive<br>valuations that discards at most $\lfloor n/2 \rfloor -1$ goods. This improves<br>the state of the art for the restricted additive valuations by a factor of $2$.<br> %K Computer Science, Computer Science and Game Theory, cs.GT

Machine learning can be a useful approach in<br>practice by predicting the future load of the system based on, for example,<br>historical data.

After a long line of research, the problem was finally settled by<br>Behnezhad [FOCS'22], in the regime where one is willing to pay an approximation<br>factor of $2$. Very recently, Behnezhad et al.[SODA'23] improved the<br>approximation factor to $(2-\frac{1}{2^{O(1/\gamma)}})$ using $n^{1+\gamma}$<br>time. This improvement over the factor $2$ is, however, minuscule and they<br>asked if even $1.99$-approximation is possible in $n^{2-\Omega(1)}$ time. We<br>give a strong affirmative answer to this open problem by showing<br>$(1.5+\epsilon)$-approximation algorithms that run in<br>$n^{2-\Theta(\epsilon^{2})}$ time. Our approach is conceptually simple and<br>diverges from all previous sublinear-time matching algorithms: we show a<br>sublinear time algorithm for computing a variant of the edge-degree constrained<br>subgraph (EDCS), a concept that has previously been exploited in dynamic<br>[Bernstein Stein ICALP'15, SODA'16], distributed [Assadi et al. SODA'19] and<br>streaming [Bernstein ICALP'20] settings, but never before in the sublinear<br>setting. Independent work: Behnezhad, Roghani and Rubinstein [BRR'23]<br>independently showed sublinear algorithms similar to our Theorem 1.2 in both<br>adjacency list and matrix models. Furthermore, in [BRR'23], they show<br>additional results on strictly better-than-1.5 approximate matching algorithms<br>in both upper and lower bound sides.<br> %K Computer Science, Data Structures and Algorithms, cs.DS

Birmel\'e (2003) showed that the treewidth of a<br>graph $G$ is at most its circumference minus one.

More than 20 years ago, Cole<br>and Hariharan [SODA'98, J. Comput.'02] gave an $\mathcal{O}(n+k^4 \cdot n/<br>m)$-time algorithm for this classic problem, and this runtime has not been<br>improved since.<br> Here, we present an algorithm that runs in time $\mathcal{O}(n+k^{3.5}<br>\sqrt{\log m \log k} \cdot n/m)$, thus breaking through this long-standing<br>barrier. In the case where $n^{1/4+\varepsilon} \leq k \leq<br>n^{2/5-\varepsilon}$ for some arbitrarily small positive constant<br>$\varepsilon$, our algorithm improves over the state-of-the-art by polynomial<br>factors: it is polynomially faster than both the algorithm of Cole and<br>Hariharan and the classic $\mathcal{O}(kn)$-time algorithm of Landau and<br>Vishkin [STOC'86, J. Algorithms'89].<br> We observe that the bottleneck case of the alternative $\mathcal{O}(n+k^4<br>\cdot n/m)$-time algorithm of Charalampopoulos, Kociumaka, and Wellnitz<br>[FOCS'20] is when the text and the pattern are (almost) periodic. Our new<br>algorithm reduces this case to a new dynamic problem (Dynamic Puzzle Matching),<br>which we solve by building on tools developed by Tiskin [SODA'10,<br>Algorithmica'15] for the so-called seaweed monoid of permutation matrices. Our<br>algorithm relies only on a small set of primitive operations on strings and<br>thus also applies to the fully-compressed setting (where text and pattern are<br>given as straight-line programs) and to the dynamic setting (where we maintain<br>a collection of strings under creation, splitting, and concatenation),<br>improving over the state of the art.<br> %K Computer Science, Data Structures and Algorithms, cs.DS

What patterns in global<br>trade networks are shared across classes of goods, and how do these patterns<br>change over time? Answering questions like these requires us to differentially<br>describe groups of graphs: Given a set of graphs and a partition of these<br>graphs into groups, discover what graphs in one group have in common, how they<br>systematically differ from graphs in other groups, and how multiple groups of<br>graphs are related. We refer to this task as graph group analysis, which seeks<br>to describe similarities and differences between graph groups by means of<br>statistically significant subgraphs. To perform graph group analysis, we<br>introduce Gragra, which uses maximum entropy modeling to identify a<br>non-redundant set of subgraphs with statistically significant associations to<br>one or more graph groups. Through an extensive set of experiments on a wide<br>range of synthetic and real-world graph groups, we confirm that Gragra works<br>well in practice.<br> %K cs.SI,Computer Science, Information Theory, cs.IT,Computer Science, Learning, cs.LG,Mathematics, Information Theory, math.IT

The task is<br>to find a subset of pairwise non-overlapping rectangles with the maximum<br>possible total weight. This problem is NP-hard and the best-known<br>polynomial-time approximation algorithm, due to by Chalermsook and Walczak<br>(SODA 2021), achieves approximation factor $O(\log\log n )$. While in the<br>unweighted setting, constant factor approximation algorithms are known, due to<br>Mitchell (FOCS 2021) and to G\'alvez et al. (SODA 2022), it remains open to<br>extend these techniques to the weighted setting.<br> In this paper, we consider MWISR through the lens of parameterized<br>approximation. Grandoni et al. (ESA 2019) gave a $(1-\epsilon)$-approximation<br>algorithm with running time $k^{O(k/\epsilon^8)} n^{O(1/\epsilon^8)}$ time,<br>where $k$ is the number of rectangles in an optimum solution. Unfortunately,<br>their algorithm works only in the unweighted setting and they left it as an<br>open problem to give a parameterized approximation scheme in the weighted<br>setting.<br> Our contribution is a partial answer to the open question of Grandoni et al.<br>(ESA 2019). We give a parameterized approximation algorithm for MWISR that<br>given a parameter $k$, finds a set of non-overlapping rectangles of weight at<br>least $(1-\epsilon) \text{opt}_k$ in $2^{O(k \log(k/\epsilon))}<br>n^{O(1/\epsilon)}$ time, where $\text{opt}_k$ is the maximum weight of a<br>solution of cardinality at most $k$. Note that thus, our algorithm may return a<br>solution consisting of more than $k$ rectangles. To complement this apparent<br>weakness, we also propose a parameterized approximation scheme with running<br>time $2^{O(k^2 \log(k/\epsilon))} n^{O(1)}$ that finds a solution with<br>cardinality at most $k$ and total weight at least $(1-\epsilon)\text{opt}_k$<br>for the special case of axis-parallel segments.<br> %K Computer Science, Data Structures and Algorithms, cs.DS,Computer Science, Computational Geometry, cs.CG

In a monotone subset minimization<br>problem the input implicitly describes a non-empty set family over a universe<br>of size $n$ which is closed under taking supersets. The task is to find a<br>minimum cardinality set in this family. Broadly speaking, we use approximate<br>monotone local search to show that a parameterized $\alpha$-approximation<br>algorithm that runs in $c^k \cdot n^{O(1)}$ time, where $k$ is the solution<br>size, can be used to derive an $\alpha$-approximation randomized algorithm that<br>runs in $d^n \cdot n^{O(1)}$ time, where $d$ is the unique value in $d \in<br>(1,1+\frac{c-1}{\alpha})$ such that<br>$\mathcal{D}(\frac{1}{\alpha}\|\frac{d-1}{c-1})=\frac{\ln c}{\alpha}$ and<br>$\mathcal{D}(a \|b)$ is the Kullback-Leibler divergence. This running time<br>matches that of Fomin et al. for $\alpha=1$, and is strictly better when<br>$\alpha >1$, for any $c > 1$. Furthermore, we also show that this result can be<br>derandomized at the expense of a sub-exponential multiplicative factor in the<br>running time.<br> We demonstrate the potential of approximate monotone local search by deriving<br>new and faster exponential approximation algorithms for Vertex Cover,<br>$3$-Hitting Set, Directed Feedback Vertex Set, Directed Subset Feedback Vertex<br>Set, Directed Odd Cycle Transversal and Undirected Multicut. For instance, we<br>get a $1.1$-approximation algorithm for Vertex Cover with running time $1.114^n<br>\cdot n^{O(1)}$, improving upon the previously best known $1.1$-approximation<br>running in time $1.127^n \cdot n^{O(1)}$ by Bourgeois et al.

Edge<br>Multicut has been relatively recently shown to be fixed-parameter tractable<br>(FPT), parameterized by $k$, by Marx and Razgon [SICOMP 2014], and<br>independently by Bousquet et al. [SICOMP 2018]. In the weighted version of the<br>problem, called Weighted Edge Multicut one is additionally given a weight<br>function $\mathtt{wt} : E(G) \to \mathbb{N}$ and a weight bound $w$, and the<br>goal is to determine if there is a solution of size at most $k$ and weight at<br>most $w$. Both the FPT algorithms for Edge Multicut by Marx et al. and Bousquet<br>et al. fail to generalize to the weighted setting. In fact, the weighted<br>problem is non-trivial even on trees and determining whether Weighted Edge<br>Multicut on trees is FPT was explicitly posed as an open problem by Bousquet et<br>al. [STACS 2009]. In this article, we answer this question positively by<br>designing an algorithm which uses a very recent result by Kim et al. [STOC<br>2022] about directed flow augmentation as subroutine.<br> We also study a variant of this problem where there is no bound on the size<br>of the solution, but the parameter is a structural property of the input, for<br>example, the number of leaves of the tree.

In the classical problem, there is a stream<br>of requests released over time along the real line. The goal is to minimize the<br>makespan of the algorithm. We distinguish between the open variant and the<br>closed one, in which we additionally require the algorithm to return to the<br>origin after serving all requests. The state of the art is a $1.64$-competitive<br>algorithm and a $2.04$-competitive algorithm for the closed and open variants,<br>respectively \cite{Bjelde:1.64}. In both cases, a tight lower bound is known<br>\cite{Ausiello:1.75, Bjelde:1.64}.<br> In both variants, our primary prediction model involves predicted positions<br>of the requests. We introduce algorithms that (i) obtain a tight 1.5<br>competitive ratio for the closed variant and a 1.66 competitive ratio for the<br>open variant in the case of perfect predictions, (ii) are robust against<br>unbounded prediction error, and (iii) are smooth, i.e., their performance<br>degrades gracefully as the prediction error increases.<br> Moreover, we further investigate the learning-augmented setting in the open<br>variant by additionally considering a prediction for the last request served by<br>the optimal offline algorithm. Our algorithm for this enhanced setting obtains<br>a 1.33 competitive ratio with perfect predictions while also being smooth and<br>robust, beating the lower bound of 1.44 we show for our original prediction<br>setting for the open variant. Also, we provide a lower bound of 1.25 for this<br>enhanced setting.<br> %K Computer Science, Data Structures and Algorithms, cs.DS,Computer Science, Learning, cs.LG

A proper coloring of a mixed graph $G$ is a function $c$ that<br>assigns to each vertex in $G$ a positive integer such that, for each edge $uv$<br>in $G$, $c(u) \ne c(v)$ and, for each arc $uv$ in $G$, $c(u) < c(v)$. For a<br>mixed graph $G$, the chromatic number $\chi(G)$ is the smallest number of<br>colors in any proper coloring of $G$. A directional interval graph is a mixed<br>graph whose vertices correspond to intervals on the real line. Such a graph has<br>an edge between every two intervals where one is contained in the other and an<br>arc between every two overlapping intervals, directed towards the interval that<br>starts and ends to the right.<br> Coloring such graphs has applications in routing edges in layered orthogonal<br>graph drawing according to the Sugiyama framework; the colors correspond to the<br>tracks for routing the edges. We show how to recognize directional interval<br>graphs, and how to compute their chromatic number efficiently. On the other<br>hand, for mixed interval graphs, i.e., graphs where two intersecting intervals<br>can be connected by an edge or by an arc in either direction arbitrarily, we<br>prove that computing the chromatic number is NP-hard.<br> %K Computer Science, Discrete Mathematics, cs.DM

This problem, given a<br>directed graph $G$, pairs of vertices (called terminals) $(s_1,t_1)$,<br>$(s_2,t_2)$, and $(s_3,t_3)$, and an integer $k$, asks to find a set of at most<br>$k$ non-terminal vertices in $G$ that intersect all $s_1t_1$-paths, all<br>$s_2t_2$-paths, and all $s_3t_3$-paths. The parameterized complexity of this<br>case has been open since Chitnis, Cygan, Hajiaghayi, and Marx proved<br>fixed-parameter tractability of the 2-terminal-pairs case at SODA 2012, and<br>Pilipczuk and Wahlstr\"{o}m proved the W[1]-hardness of the 4-terminal-pairs<br>case at SODA 2016.<br> On the technical side, we use two recent developments in parameterized<br>algorithms. Using the technique of directed flow-augmentation [Kim, Kratsch,<br>Pilipczuk, Wahlstr\"{o}m, STOC 2022] we cast the problem as a CSP problem with<br>few variables and constraints over a large ordered domain.We observe that this<br>problem can be in turn encoded as an FO model-checking task over a structure<br>consisting of a few 0-1 matrices. We look at this problem through the lenses of<br>twin-width, a recently introduced structural parameter [Bonnet, Kim,<br>Thomass\'{e}, Watrigant, FOCS 2020]: By a recent characterization [Bonnet,<br>Giocanti, Ossona de Mendes, Simon, Thomass\'{e}, Toru\'{n}czyk, STOC 2022] the<br>said FO model-checking task can be done in FPT time if the said matrices have<br>bounded grid rank. To complete the proof, we show an irrelevant vertex rule: If<br>any of the matrices in the said encoding has a large grid minor, a vertex<br>corresponding to the ``middle'' box in the grid minor can be proclaimed<br>irrelevant -- not contained in the sought solution -- and thus reduced.<br> %K Computer Science, Data Structures and Algorithms, cs.DS

The most commonly accepted notion of collusion-freeness was<br>proposed by Goldman and Mathias (1996), and various teaching models obeying<br>their criterion have been studied. For each model $M$ and each concept class<br>$\mathcal{C}$, a parameter $M$-$\mathrm{TD}(\mathcal{C})$ refers to the<br>teaching dimension of concept class $\mathcal{C}$ in model $M$---defined to be<br>the number of examples required for teaching a concept, in the worst case over<br>all concepts in $\mathcal{C}$.<br> This paper introduces a new model of teaching, called no-clash teaching,<br>together with the corresponding parameter $\mathrm{NCTD}(\mathcal{C})$.<br>No-clash teaching is provably optimal in the strong sense that, given any<br>concept class $\mathcal{C}$ and any model $M$ obeying Goldman and Mathias's<br>collusion-freeness criterion, one obtains $\mathrm{NCTD}(\mathcal{C})\le<br>M$-$\mathrm{TD}(\mathcal{C})$. We also study a corresponding notion<br>$\mathrm{NCTD}^+$ for the case of learning from positive data only, establish<br>useful bounds on $\mathrm{NCTD}$ and $\mathrm{NCTD}^+$, and discuss relations<br>of these parameters to the VC-dimension and to sample compression.<br> In addition to formulating an optimal model of collusion-free teaching, our<br>main results are on the computational complexity of deciding whether<br>$\mathrm{NCTD}^+(\mathcal{C})=k$ (or $\mathrm{NCTD}(\mathcal{C})=k$) for given<br>$\mathcal{C}$ and $k$. We show some such decision problems to be equivalent to<br>the existence question for certain constrained matchings in bipartite graphs.<br>Our NP-hardness results for the latter are of independent interest in the study<br>of constrained graph matchings.<br> %K Computer Science, Learning, cs.LG,Statistics, Machine Learning, stat.ML %J Journal of Machine Learning Research %I JMLR.org %@ false

The existing design TRIX achieves this goal<br>by being a distributed system consisting of very simple nodes. We show that even in<br>the typical mode of operation without faults, TRIX performs significantly better than a<br>regular wire or clock tree: Statistical evaluation of our simulated experiments show that<br>we achieve a skew with standard deviation of O(log log H), where H is the height of the<br>TRIX grid.<br>The distance-r generalization of classic graph problems can give us insights on how<br>distance affects hardness of a problem. For the distance-r dominating set problem, we<br>present both an algorithmic upper and unconditional lower bound for any graph class<br>with certain high-girth and sparseness criteria. In particular, our algorithm achieves a<br>O(r &#183; f(r))-approximation in time O(r), where f is the expansion function, which correlates<br>with density. For constant r, this implies a constant approximation factor, in constant<br>time. We also show that no algorithm can achieve a (2r + 1 &#8722; &#948;)-approximation for any<br>&#948; > 0 in time O(r), not even on the class of cycles of girth at least 5r. Furthermore, we<br>extend the algorithm to related graph cover problems and even to a different execution<br>model.<br>Furthermore, we investigate the problem of packet forwarding, which addresses the<br>question of how and when best to forward packets in a distributed system. These packets<br>are injected by an adversary. We build on the existing algorithm OED to handle more<br>than a single destination. In particular, we show that buffers of size O(log n) are sufficient<br>for this algorithm, in contrast to O(n) for the naive approach. %U https://publikationen.sulb.uni-saarland.de/handle/20.500.11880/33316

In this<br>work we study an extension of the problem, where degree intervals are specified<br>rather than a single degree sequence. We are interested in sampling and<br>counting graphs whose degree sequences satisfy the degree interval constraints.<br>A natural scenario where this problem arises is in hypothesis testing on social<br>networks that are only partially observed.<br> In this work, we provide the first fully polynomial almost uniform sampler<br>(FPAUS) as well as the first fully polynomial randomized approximation scheme<br>(FPRAS) for sampling and counting, respectively, graphs with near-regular<br>degree intervals, in which every node $i$ has a degree from an interval not too<br>far away from a given $d \in \N$. In order to design our FPAUS, we rely on<br>various state-of-the-art tools from Markov chain theory and combinatorics. In<br>particular, we provide the first non-trivial algorithmic application of a<br>breakthrough result of Liebenau and Wormald (2017) regarding an asymptotic<br>formula for the number of graphs with a given near-regular degree sequence.<br>Furthermore, we also make use of the recent breakthrough of Anari et al.

First, for any $n$-node graph $G$ with hop-diameter $D$ and<br>treewidth bounded by $k$, we show the existence of a Laplacian solver with<br>round complexity $O(n^{o(1)}kD \log(1/\epsilon))$ in the CONGEST model. For<br>graphs with bounded treewidth this circumvents the notorious $\Omega(\sqrt{n})$<br>lower bound for "global" problems in general graphs. Moreover, following a<br>recent line of work in distributed algorithms, we consider a hybrid<br>communication model which enhances CONGEST with very limited global power in<br>the form of the recently introduced node-capacitated clique. In this model, we<br>show the existence of a Laplacian solver with round complexity $O(n^{o(1)}<br>\log(1/\epsilon))$. The unifying thread of these results is an application of<br>accelerated distributed algorithms for a congested variant of the standard<br>part-wise aggregation problem that we introduce. This primitive constitutes the<br>primary building block for simulating "local" operations on low-congestion<br>minors, and we believe that this framework could be more generally applicable.<br> %K Computer Science, Distributed, Parallel, and Cluster Computing, cs.DC

We examine the problem when the pattern graph H is of bounded<br>treewidth, as occurs in a variety of applications. This problem has a<br>well-known algorithm via color-coding that runs in time $O(n^{tw(H)+1})$ [Alon,<br>Yuster, Zwick'95], where $n$ is the number of vertices of the host graph $G$.<br>While there are pattern graphs known for which Subgraph Isomorphism can be<br>solved in an improved running time of $O(n^{tw(H)+1-\varepsilon})$ or even<br>faster (e.g. for $k$-cliques), it is not known whether such improvements are<br>possible for all patterns. The only known lower bound rules out time<br>$n^{o(tw(H) / \log(tw(H)))}$ for any class of patterns of unbounded treewidth<br>assuming the Exponential Time Hypothesis [Marx'07].<br> In this paper, we demonstrate the existence of maximally hard pattern graphs<br>$H$ that require time $n^{tw(H)+1-o(1)}$. Specifically, under the Strong<br>Exponential Time Hypothesis (SETH), a standard assumption from fine-grained<br>complexity theory, we prove the following asymptotic statement for large<br>treewidth $t$: For any $\varepsilon > 0$ there exists $t \ge 3$ and a pattern<br>graph $H$ of treewidth $t$ such that Subgraph Isomorphism on pattern $H$ has no<br>algorithm running in time $O(n^{t+1-\varepsilon})$.<br> Under the more recent 3-uniform Hyperclique hypothesis, we even obtain tight<br>lower bounds for each specific treewidth $t \ge 3$: For any $t \ge 3$ there<br>exists a pattern graph $H$ of treewidth $t$ such that for any $\varepsilon>0$<br>Subgraph Isomorphism on pattern $H$ has no algorithm running in time<br>$O(n^{t+1-\varepsilon})$.<br> In addition to these main results, we explore (1) colored and uncolored<br>problem variants (and why they are equivalent for most cases), (2) Subgraph<br>Isomorphism for $tw < 3$, (3) Subgraph Isomorphism parameterized by pathwidth,<br>and (4) a weighted problem variant.<br> %K Computer Science, Data Structures and Algorithms, cs.DS,Computer Science, Computational Complexity, cs.CC,

Arguably the most basic distance measure for this task is the<br>Hausdorff distance, which assigns to each point from one set the closest point<br>in the other set and then evaluates the maximum distance of any assigned pair.<br>A drawback is that this distance measure is not translational invariant, that<br>is, comparing two objects just according to their shape while disregarding<br>their position in space is impossible.<br> Fortunately, there is a canonical translational invariant version, the<br>Hausdorff distance under translation, which minimizes the Hausdorff distance<br>over all translations of one of the point sets. For point sets of size $n$ and<br>$m$, the Hausdorff distance under translation can be computed in time $\tilde<br>O(nm)$ for the $L_1$ and $L_\infty$ norm [Chew, Kedem SWAT'92] and $\tilde O(nm<br>(n+m))$ for the $L_2$ norm [Huttenlocher, Kedem, Sharir DCG'93].<br> As these bounds have not been improved for over 25 years, in this paper we<br>approach the Hausdorff distance under translation from the perspective of<br>fine-grained complexity theory. We show (i) a matching lower bound of<br>$(nm)^{1-o(1)}$ for $L_1$ and $L_\infty$ assuming the Orthogonal Vectors<br>Hypothesis and (ii) a matching lower bound of $n^{2-o(1)}$ for $L_2$ in the<br>imbalanced case of $m = O(1)$ assuming the 3SUM Hypothesis.<br> %K Computer Science, Computational Geometry, cs.CG,Computer Science, Computational Complexity, cs.CC

Boolean convolution formalizes the frequent task of combining<br>two subproblems, where the whole problem has a solution of size $k$ if for some<br>$i$ the first subproblem has a solution of size~$i$ and the second subproblem<br>has a solution of size $k-i$. Our problem formalizes a natural generalization,<br>namely combining solutions of $n$ subproblems subject to a modular constraint.<br>This simultaneously generalises Modular Subset Sum and Boolean Convolution<br>(Sumset Computation). Although nearly optimal algorithms are known for special<br>cases of this problem, not even tiny improvements are known for the general<br>case.<br> We almost resolve the computational complexity of this problem, shaving<br>essentially a factor of $n$ from the running time of previous algorithms.<br>Specifically, we present a \emph{deterministic} algorithm running in<br>\emph{almost} linear time with respect to the input plus output size $k$.

We focus on the case where the input and the queries are<br>one-dimensional polygonal curves -- also called time series -- and we give a<br>comprehensive analysis for this case. We obtain new upper bounds that provide<br>different tradeoffs between approximation factor, preprocessing time, and query<br>time.<br> Our data structures improve upon the state of the art in several ways. We<br>show that for any $0 < \varepsilon \leq 1$ an approximation factor of<br>$(1+\varepsilon)$ can be achieved within the same asymptotic time bounds as the<br>previously best result for $(2+\varepsilon)$. Moreover, we show that an<br>approximation factor of $(2+\varepsilon)$ can be obtained by using<br>preprocessing time and space $O(nm)$, which is linear in the input size, and<br>query time in $O(\frac{1}{\varepsilon})^{k+2}$, where the previously best<br>result used preprocessing time in $n \cdot O(\frac{m}{\varepsilon k})^k$ and<br>query time in $O(1)^k$. We complement our upper bounds with matching<br>conditional lower bounds based on the Orthogonal Vectors Hypothesis.<br>Interestingly, some of our lower bounds already hold for any super-constant<br>value of $k$. This is achieved by proving hardness of a one-sided sparse<br>version of the Orthogonal Vectors problem as an intermediate problem, which we<br>believe to be of independent interest.<br> %K Computer Science, Computational Geometry, cs.CG,Computer Science, Computational Complexity, cs.CC,Computer Science, Data Structures and Algorithms, cs.DS

In the Sparse Fast Fourier Transform (Sparse FFT) problem, one is<br>given oracle access to a $d$-dimensional vector $x$ of size $N$, and is asked<br>to compute the best $k$-term approximation of its Discrete Fourier Transform,<br>quickly and using few samples of the input vector $x$. While the sample<br>complexity of this problem is quite well understood, all previous approaches<br>either suffer from an exponential dependence of runtime on the dimension $d$ or<br>can only tolerate a trivial amount of noise. This is in sharp contrast with the<br>classical FFT algorithm of Cooley and Tukey, which is stable and completely<br>insensitive to the dimension of the input vector: its runtime is $O(N\log N)$<br>in any dimension $d$.<br> In this work, we introduce a new high-dimensional Sparse FFT toolkit and use<br>it to obtain new algorithms, both on the exact, as well as in the case of<br>bounded $\ell_2$ noise. This toolkit includes i) a new strategy for exploring a<br>pruned FFT computation tree that reduces the cost of filtering, ii) new<br>structural properties of adaptive aliasing filters recently introduced by<br>Kapralov, Velingker and Zandieh'SODA'19, and iii) a novel lazy estimation<br>argument, suited to reducing the cost of estimation in FFT tree-traversal<br>approaches. Our robust algorithm can be viewed as a highly optimized sparse,<br>stable extension of the Cooley-Tukey FFT algorithm.<br> Finally, we explain the barriers we have faced by proving a conditional<br>quadratic lower bound on the running time of the well-studied non-equispaced<br>Fourier transform problem. This resolves a natural and frequently asked<br>question in computational Fourier transforms.

It frequently comes up in algorithms<br>for Knapsack, $k$-SUM, All-Pairs Shortest Paths, and string pattern matching<br>problems. For these applications it typically suffices to compute convolutions<br>of nonnegative vectors. This problem can be classically solved in time $O(n\log<br>n)$ using the Fast Fourier Transform.<br> However, often the involved vectors are sparse and hence one could hope for<br>output-sensitive algorithms to compute nonnegative convolutions. This question<br>was raised by Muthukrishnan and solved by Cole and Hariharan (STOC '02) by a<br>randomized algorithm running in near-linear time in the (unknown) output-size<br>$t$. Chan and Lewenstein (STOC '15) presented a deterministic algorithm with a<br>$2^{O(\sqrt{\log t\cdot\log\log n})}$ overhead in running time and the<br>additional assumption that a small superset of the output is given; this<br>assumption was later removed by Bringmann and Nakos (ICALP '21).<br> In this paper we present the first deterministic near-linear-time algorithm<br>for computing sparse nonnegative convolutions. This immediately gives improved<br>deterministic algorithms for the state-of-the-art of output-sensitive Subset<br>Sum, block-mass pattern matching, $N$-fold Boolean convolution, and others,<br>matching up to log-factors the fastest known randomized algorithms for these<br>problems.

Inspired by the first<br>completeness results for decision problems in P (Gao, Impagliazzo, Kolokolova,<br>Williams, TALG 2019) as well as the classic class MaxSNP and<br>MaxSNP-completeness for NP optimization problems (Papadimitriou, Yannakakis,<br>JCSS 1991), we define polynomial-time analogues MaxSP and MinSP, which contain<br>a number of natural optimization problems in P, including Maximum Inner<br>Product, general forms of nearest neighbor search and optimization variants of<br>the $k$-XOR problem.

While a simple quadratic algorithm has been<br>known for the problem for more than 40 years, no faster algorithm has been<br>found despite an extensive effort. The lack of progress on the problem has<br>recently been explained by Abboud, Backurs, and Vassilevska Williams [FOCS'15]<br>and Bringmann and K\"unnemann [FOCS'15] who proved that there is no<br>subquadratic algorithm unless the Strong Exponential Time Hypothesis fails.<br>This has led the community to look for subquadratic approximation algorithms<br>for the problem.<br> Yet, unlike the edit distance problem for which a constant-factor<br>approximation in almost-linear time is known, very little progress has been<br>made on LCS, making it a notoriously difficult problem also in the realm of<br>approximation. For the general setting, only a naive<br>$O(n^{\varepsilon/2})$-approximation algorithm with running time<br>$\tilde{O}(n^{2-\varepsilon})$ has been known, for any constant $0 <<br>\varepsilon \le 1$. Recently, a breakthrough result by Hajiaghayi, Seddighin,<br>Seddighin, and Sun [SODA'19] provided a linear-time algorithm that yields a<br>$O(n^{0.497956})$-approximation in expectation; improving upon the naive<br>$O(\sqrt{n})$-approximation for the first time.<br> In this paper, we provide an algorithm that in time $O(n^{2-\varepsilon})$<br>computes an $\tilde{O}(n^{2\varepsilon/5})$-approximation with high<br>probability, for any $0 < \varepsilon \le 1$. Our result (1) gives an<br>$\tilde{O}(n^{0.4})$-approximation in linear time, improving upon the bound of<br>Hajiaghayi, Seddighin, Seddighin, and Sun, (2) provides an algorithm whose<br>approximation scales with any subquadratic running time $O(n^{2-\varepsilon})$,<br>improving upon the naive bound of $O(n^{\varepsilon/2})$ for any $\varepsilon$,<br>and (3) instead of only in expectation, succeeds with high probability.<br> %K Computer Science, Data Structures and Algorithms, cs.DS,
