Classical Algorithms for Constant Approximation of the Ground State Energy of Local Hamiltonians

Authors: François Le Gall

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 351, 33rd Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2025)

Abstract
We construct classical algorithms computing an approximation of the ground state energy of an arbitrary k-local Hamiltonian acting on n qubits. We first consider the setting where a good "guiding state" is available, which is the main setting where quantum algorithms are expected to achieve an exponential speedup over classical methods. We show that a constant approximation (i.e., an approximation with constant relative accuracy) of the ground state energy can be computed classically in poly (1/χ,n) time and poly(n) space, where χ denotes the overlap between the guiding state and the ground state (as in prior works in dequantization, we assume sample-and-query access to the guiding state). This gives a significant improvement over the recent classical algorithm by Gharibian and Le Gall (SICOMP 2023), and matches (up to a polynomial overhead) both the time and space complexities of quantum algorithms for constant approximation of the ground state energy. We also obtain classical algorithms for higher-precision approximation. For the setting where no guided state is given (i.e., the standard version of the local Hamiltonian problem), we obtain a classical algorithm computing a constant approximation of the ground state energy in 2^O(n) time and poly(n) space. To our knowledge, before this work it was unknown how to classically achieve these bounds simultaneously, even for constant approximation. We also discuss complexity-theoretic aspects of our results.

Hamiltonian Locality Testing via Trotterized Postselection

Authors: John Kallaugher and Daniel Liang

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 350, 20th Conference on the Theory of Quantum Computation, Communication and Cryptography (TQC 2025)

Abstract
The (tolerant) Hamiltonian locality testing problem, introduced in [Bluhm, Caro, Oufkir '24], is to determine whether a Hamiltonian H is ε₁-close to being k-local (i.e. can be written as the sum of weight-k Pauli operators) or ε₂-far from any k-local Hamiltonian, given access to its time evolution operator and using as little total evolution time as possible, with distance typically defined by the normalized Frobenius norm. We give the tightest known bounds for this problem, proving an O(√(ε₂/((ε₂-ε₁)⁵)) evolution time upper bound and an Ω(1/(ε₂-ε₁)) lower bound. Our algorithm does not require reverse time evolution or controlled application of the time evolution operator, although our lower bound applies to algorithms using either tool. Furthermore, we show that if we are allowed reverse time evolution, this lower bound is tight, giving a matching O(1/(ε₂-ε₁)) evolution time algorithm.

Dynamic Streaming Algorithms for Geometric Independent Set

Authors: Timothy M. Chan and Yuancheng Yu

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 349, 19th International Symposium on Algorithms and Data Structures (WADS 2025)

Abstract
We present the first space-efficient, fully dynamic streaming algorithm for computing a constant-factor approximation of the maximum independent set size of n axis-aligned rectangles in two dimensions. For an arbitrarily small constant δ > 0, our algorithm obtains an O((1/δ)²) approximation and requires O(U^δ polylog n) space and update time with high probability, assuming that coordinates are integers bounded by U. We also obtain a similar result for fat objects in any constant dimension. This extends recent non-streaming algorithms by Bhore and Chan from SODA'25, and also greatly extends previous streaming results, which were limited to special types of geometric objects such as one-dimensional intervals and unit disks.

Switching Graph Matrix Norm Bounds: From i.i.d. to Random Regular Graphs

Authors: Jeff Xu

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 339, 40th Computational Complexity Conference (CCC 2025)

Abstract
In this work, we give novel spectral norm bounds for graph matrix on inputs being random regular graphs. Graph matrix is a family of random matrices with entries given by polynomial functions of the underlying input. These matrices have been known to be the backbone for the analysis of various average-case algorithms and hardness. Previous investigations of such matrices are largely restricted to the Erdős-Rényi model, and tight matrix norm bounds on regular graphs are only known for specific examples. We unite these two lines of investigations, and give the first result departing from the Erdős-Rényi setting in the full generality of graph matrices. We believe our norm bound result would enable a simple transfer of spectral analysis for average-case algorithms and hardness between these two distributions of random graphs. As an application of our spectral norm bounds, we show that higher-degree Sum-of-Squares lower bounds for the independent set problem on Erdős-Rényi random graphs can be switched into lower bounds on random d-regular graphs. Our main conceptual insight is that existing Sum-of-Squares lower bounds analysis based on moment methods are surprisingly robust, and amenable for a light-weight translation. Our result is the first to address the general open question of analyzing higher-degree Sum-of-Squares on random regular graphs.

Even Faster Algorithm for the Chamfer Distance

Authors: Ying Feng and Piotr Indyk

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 334, 52nd International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2025)

Abstract
For two d-dimensional point sets A,B of size up to n, the Chamfer distance from A to B is defined as CH(A,B) = ∑_{a ∈ A} min_{b ∈ B} ‖a-b‖. The Chamfer distance is a widely used measure for quantifying dissimilarity between sets of points, used in many machine learning and computer vision applications. A recent work of Bakshi et al, NeuriPS'23, gave the first near-linear time (1+ε)-approximate algorithm, with a running time of 𝒪(nd log (n)/ε²). In this paper we improve the running time further, to 𝒪(nd(log log n+log1/(ε))/ε²)). When ε is a constant, this reduces the gap between the upper bound and the trivial Ω(dn) lower bound significantly, from 𝒪(log n) to 𝒪(log log n).

Deterministic Independent Sets in the Semi-Streaming Model

Authors: Daniel Ye

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 334, 52nd International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2025)

Abstract
We consider the independent set problem in the semi-streaming model. For any input graph G = (V, E) with n vertices, an independent set is a set of vertices with no edges between any two elements. In the semi-streaming model, G is presented as a stream of edges and any algorithm must use Õ(n) bits of memory to output a large independent set at the end of the stream. Prior work has designed various semi-streaming algorithms for finding independent sets. Due to the hardness of finding maximum and maximal independent sets in the semi-streaming model, the focus has primarily been on finding independent sets in terms of certain parameters, such as the maximum degree Δ. In particular, there is a simple randomized algorithm that obtains independent sets of size n/(Δ+1) in expectation, which can also be achieved with high probability using more complicated algorithms. For deterministic algorithms, the best bounds are significantly weaker. The best we know is a straightforward algorithm that finds an Ω̃(n/(Δ²)) size independent set. We show that this straightforward algorithm is nearly optimal by proving that any deterministic semi-streaming algorithm can only output an Õ(n/(Δ²)) size independent set. Our result proves a strong separation between the power of deterministic and randomized semi-streaming algorithms for the independent set problem.

Sublinear Time Eigenvalue Approximation via Random Sampling

Authors: Rajarshi Bhattacharjee, Gregory Dexter, Petros Drineas, Cameron Musco, and Archan Ray

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 261, 50th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2023)

Abstract
We study the problem of approximating the eigenspectrum of a symmetric matrix A ∈ ℝ^{n×n} with bounded entries (i.e., ‖A‖_∞ ≤ 1). We present a simple sublinear time algorithm that approximates all eigenvalues of A up to additive error ±εn using those of a randomly sampled Õ((log³ n)/ε³)×Õ((log³ n)/ε³) principal submatrix. Our result can be viewed as a concentration bound on the complete eigenspectrum of a random submatrix, significantly extending known bounds on just the singular values (the magnitudes of the eigenvalues). We give improved error bounds of ± ε √{nnz(A)} and ±ε‖A‖_F when the rows of A can be sampled with probabilities proportional to their sparsities or their squared 𝓁₂ norms respectively. Here nnz(A) is the number of non-zero entries in A and ‖A‖_F is its Frobenius norm. Even for the strictly easier problems of approximating the singular values or testing the existence of large negative eigenvalues (Bakshi, Chepurko, and Jayaram, FOCS '20), our results are the first that take advantage of non-uniform sampling to give improved error bounds. From a technical perspective, our results require several new eigenvalue concentration and perturbation bounds for matrices with bounded entries. Our non-uniform sampling bounds require a new algorithmic approach, which judiciously zeroes out entries of a randomly sampled submatrix to reduce variance, before computing the eigenvalues of that submatrix as estimates for those of A. We complement our theoretical results with numerical simulations, which demonstrate the effectiveness of our algorithms in practice.

Weighted Maximum Independent Set of Geometric Objects in Turnstile Streams

Authors: Ainesh Bakshi, Nadiia Chepurko, and David P. Woodruff

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 176, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2020)

Abstract
We study the Maximum Independent Set problem for geometric objects given in the data stream model. A set of geometric objects is said to be independent if the objects are pairwise disjoint. We consider geometric objects in one and two dimensions, i.e., intervals and disks. Let α be the cardinality of the largest independent set. Our goal is to estimate α in a small amount of space, given that the input is received as a one-pass stream. We also consider a generalization of this problem by assigning weights to each object and estimating β, the largest value of a weighted independent set. We initialize the study of this problem in the turnstile streaming model (insertions and deletions) and provide the first algorithms for estimating α and β. For unit-length intervals, we obtain a (2+ε)-approximation to α and β in poly(log(n)/ε) space. We also show a matching lower bound. Combined with the 3/2-approximation for insertion-only streams by Cabello and Perez-Lanterno [Cabello and Pérez-Lantero, 2017], our result implies a separation between the insertion-only and turnstile model. For unit-radius disks, we obtain a (8√3/π)-approximation to α and β in poly(log(n)/ε) space, which is closely related to the hexagonal circle packing constant. Finally, we provide algorithms for estimating α for arbitrary-length intervals under a bounded intersection assumption and study the parameterized space complexity of estimating α and β, where the parameter is the ratio of maximum to minimum interval length.

Robust Communication-Optimal Distributed Clustering Algorithms

Authors: Pranjal Awasthi, Ainesh Bakshi, Maria-Florina Balcan, Colin White, and David P. Woodruff

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 132, 46th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2019)

Abstract
In this work, we study the k-median and k-means clustering problems when the data is distributed across many servers and can contain outliers. While there has been a lot of work on these problems for worst-case instances, we focus on gaining a finer understanding through the lens of beyond worst-case analysis. Our main motivation is the following: for many applications such as clustering proteins by function or clustering communities in a social network, there is some unknown target clustering, and the hope is that running a k-median or k-means algorithm will produce clusterings which are close to matching the target clustering. Worst-case results can guarantee constant factor approximations to the optimal k-median or k-means objective value, but not closeness to the target clustering. Our first result is a distributed algorithm which returns a near-optimal clustering assuming a natural notion of stability, namely, approximation stability [Awasthi and Balcan, 2014], even when a constant fraction of the data are outliers. The communication complexity is O~(sk+z) where s is the number of machines, k is the number of clusters, and z is the number of outliers. Next, we show this amount of communication cannot be improved even in the setting when the input satisfies various non-worst-case assumptions. We give a matching Omega(sk+z) lower bound on the communication required both for approximating the optimal k-means or k-median cost up to any constant, and for returning a clustering that is close to the target clustering in Hamming distance. These lower bounds hold even when the data satisfies approximation stability or other common notions of stability, and the cluster sizes are balanced. Therefore, Omega(sk+z) is a communication bottleneck, even for real-world instances.
