RANDOM
Counting Independent Sets and Colorings on Random Regular Bipartite Graphs

Abstract
We give a fully polynomial-time approximation scheme (FPTAS) to count the number of independent sets on almost every Delta-regular bipartite graph if Delta >= 53. In the weighted case, for all sufficiently large integers Delta and weight parameters lambda = Omega~ (1/(Delta)), we also obtain an FPTAS on almost every Delta-regular bipartite graph. Our technique is based on the recent work of Jenssen, Keevash and Perkins (SODA, 2019) and we also apply it to confirm an open question raised there: For all q >= 3 and sufficiently large integers Delta=Delta(q), there is an FPTAS to count the number of q-colorings on almost every Delta-regular bipartite graph.

Optimization Algorithms for Faster Computational Geometry

Authors: Zeyuan Allen-Zhu, Zhenyu Liao, and Yang Yuan

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 55, 43rd International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2016)


Abstract
We study two fundamental problems in computational geometry: finding the maximum inscribed ball (MaxIB) inside a bounded polyhedron defined by m hyperplanes, and the minimum enclosing ball (MinEB) of a set of n points, both in d-dimensional space. We improve the running time of iterative algorithms on MaxIB from ~O(m*d*alpha^3/epsilon^3) to ~O(m*d + m*sqrt(d)*alpha/epsilon), a speed-up up to ~O(sqrt(d)*alpha^2/epsilon^2), and MinEB from ~O(n*d/sqrt(epsilon)) to ~O(n*d + n*sqrt(d)/sqrt(epsilon)), a speed-up up to ~O(sqrt(d)). Our improvements are based on a novel saddle-point optimization framework. We propose a new algorithm L1L2SPSolver for solving a class of regularized saddle-point problems, and apply a randomized Hadamard space rotation which is a technique borrowed from compressive sensing. Interestingly, the motivation of using Hadamard rotation solely comes from our optimization view but not the original geometry problem: indeed, it is not immediately clear why MaxIB or MinEB, as a geometric problem, should be easier to solve if we rotate the space by a unitary matrix. We hope that our optimization perspective sheds lights on solving other geometric problems as well.
