Near-Optimal Dynamic Steiner Spanners for Constant-Curvature Spaces

Authors: Sándor Kisfaludi-Bak and Geert van Wordragen

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 367, 42nd International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2026)

Abstract
We consider Steiner spanners in Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometries. In the Euclidean setting, a recent line of work initiated by Le and Solomon [FOCS'19] and further improved by Chang et al. [SoCG'24] obtained Steiner (1+ε)-spanners of size O_d(ε^{(1-d)/2} log(1/ε) n), nearly matching the lower bound Ω_d(ε^{(1-d)/2} n) of Bhore and Tóth [SIDMA'22]. We obtain Steiner (1+ε)-spanners of size O_d(ε^{(1-d)/2} log(1/ε)n) not only in d-dimensional Euclidean space, but also in d-dimensional spherical and hyperbolic space. For any fixed dimension d, the obtained edge count is optimal up to an O(log(1/ε)) factor in each of these spaces. Unlike earlier constructions, our Steiner spanners are based on simple quadtrees, and they can be dynamically maintained, leading to efficient data structures for dynamic approximate nearest neighbours and bichromatic closest pair. In the hyperbolic setting, we also show that 2-spanners in the hyperbolic plane must have Ω(nlog n) edges, and we obtain a 2-spanner of size O_d(nlog n) in d-dimensional hyperbolic space, matching our lower bound for any constant d. Finally, we give a Steiner spanner with additive error ε in hyperbolic space with O_d(ε^{(1-d)/2} log(α(n)/ε)n) edges, where α(n) is the inverse Ackermann function. Our techniques generalize to closed orientable surfaces of constant curvature as well as to some other quotient spaces.

Clustering in Varying Metrics

Authors: Deeparnab Chakrabarty, Jonathan Conroy, and Ankita Sarkar

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 360, 45th IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2025)

Abstract
We introduce the aggregated clustering problem, where one is given T instances of a center-based clustering task over the same n points, but under different metrics. The goal is to open k centers to minimize an aggregate of the clustering costs - e.g., the average or maximum - where the cost is measured via k-center/median/means objectives. More generally, we minimize a norm Ψ over the T cost values. We show that for T ≥ 3, the problem is inapproximable to any finite factor in polynomial time. For T = 2, we give constant-factor approximations. We also show W[2]-hardness when parameterized by k, but obtain f(k,T)poly(n)-time 3-approximations when parameterized by both k and T. When the metrics have structure, we obtain efficient parameterized approximation schemes (EPAS). If all T metrics have bounded ε-scatter dimension, we achieve a (1+ε)-approximation in f(k,T,ε)poly(n) time. If the metrics are induced by edge weights on a common graph G of bounded treewidth tw, and Ψ is the sum function, we get an EPAS in f(T,ε,tw)poly(n,k) time. Conversely, unless (randomized) ETH is false, any finite factor approximation is impossible if parametrized by only T, even when the treewidth is tw = Ω(polylog n).

Model-Agnostic Approximation of Constrained Forest Problems

Authors: Corinna Coupette, Alipasha Montaseri, and Christoph Lenzen

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 356, 39th International Symposium on Distributed Computing (DISC 2025)

Abstract
Constrained Forest Problems (CFPs) as introduced by Goemans and Williamson in 1995 capture a wide range of network design problems with edge subsets as solutions, such as Minimum Spanning Tree, Steiner Forest, and Point-to-Point Connection. While individual CFPs have been studied extensively in individual computational models, a unified approach to solving general CFPs in multiple computational models has been lacking. Against this background, we present the shell-decomposition algorithm, a model-agnostic meta-algorithm that efficiently computes a (2+ε)-approximation to CFPs for a broad class of forest functions. The shell-decomposition algorithm isolates the problem-specific hardness of individual CFPs in a single computational subroutine, breaking the remainder of the computation into fundamental tasks that are studied extensively in a wide range of computational models. In contrast to prior work, our framework is compatible with the use of approximate distances. To demonstrate the power and flexibility of this result, we instantiate our algorithm for three fundamental, NP-hard CFPs (Steiner Forest, Point-to-Point Connection, and Facility Placement and Connection) in three different computational models (Congest, PRAM, and Multi-Pass Streaming). For constant ε, we obtain the following (2+ε)-approximations in the Congest model: [(1)] 1) For Steiner Forest specified via input components (SF-IC), where each node knows the identifier of one of k disjoint subsets of V (the input components), we achieve a deterministic (2+ε)-approximation in 𝒪̃(√n+D+k) rounds, where D is the hop diameter of the graph, significantly improving over the state of the art. 2) For Steiner Forest specified via symmetric connection requests (SF-SCR), where connection requests are issued to pairs of nodes u,v ∈ V, we leverage randomized equality testing to reduce the running time to 𝒪̃(√n+D), succeeding with high probability. 3) For Point-to-Point Connection, we provide a (2+ε)-approximation in 𝒪̃(√n+D) rounds. 4) For Facility Placement and Connection, a relative of non-metric Uncapacitated Facility Location, we obtain a (2+ε)-approximation in 𝒪̃(√n + D) rounds. We further show how to replace the √n+D term by the complexity of solving Partwise Aggregation, achieving (near-)universal optimality in any setting in which a solution to Partwise Aggregation in near-shortcut-quality time is known. Notably, all of our concrete results can be derived with relative ease once our model-agnostic meta-algorithm has been specified. This demonstrates the power of our modularization approach to algorithm design.

Beating Competitive Ratio 4 for Graphic Matroid Secretary

Authors: Kiarash Banihashem, MohammadTaghi Hajiaghayi, Dariusz R. Kowalski, Piotr Krysta, Danny Mittal, and Jan Olkowski

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

Abstract
One of the classic problems in online decision-making is the secretary problem, where the goal is to hire the best secretary out of n rankable applicants or, in a natural extension, to maximize the probability of selecting the largest number from a sequence arriving in random order. Many works have considered generalizations of this problem where one can accept multiple values subject to a combinatorial constraint. The seminal work of Babaioff, Immorlica, Kempe, and Kleinberg (SODA'07, JACM'18) proposed the matroid secretary conjecture, suggesting that there exists an O(1)-competitive algorithm for the matroid constraint, and many works since have attempted to obtain algorithms for both general matroids and specific classes of matroids. The ultimate goal of these results is to obtain an e-competitive algorithm, and the strong matroid secretary conjecture states that this is possible for general matroids. One of the most important classes of matroids is the graphic matroid, where a set of edges in a graph is deemed independent if it contains no cycle. Given the rich combinatorial structure of graphs, obtaining algorithms for these matroids is often seen as a good first step towards solving the problem for general matroids. For matroid secretary, Babaioff et al. (SODA'07, JACM'18) first studied graphic matroid case and obtained a 16-competitive algorithm. Subsequent works have improved the competitive ratio, most recently to 4 by Soto, Turkieltaub, and Verdugo (SODA'18). In this paper, we break the 4-competitive barrier for the problem, obtaining a new algorithm with a competitive ratio of 3.95. For the special case of simple graphs (i.e., graphs that do not contain parallel edges) we further improve this to 3.77. Intuitively, solving the problem for simple graphs is easier as they do not contain cycles of length two. A natural question that arises is whether we can obtain a ratio arbitrarily close to e by assuming the graph has a large enough girth. We answer this question affirmatively, proving that one can obtain a competitive ratio arbitrarily close to e even for constant values of girth, providing further evidence for the strong matroid secretary conjecture. We further show that this bound is tight: for any constant g, one cannot obtain a competitive ratio better than e even if we assume that the input graph has girth at least g. To our knowledge, such a bound was not previously known even for simple graphs.

Hardness of Median and Center in the Ulam Metric

Authors: Nick Fischer, Elazar Goldenberg, Mursalin Habib, and Karthik C. S.

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

Abstract
The classical rank aggregation problem seeks to combine a set X of n permutations into a single representative "consensus" permutation. In this paper, we investigate two fundamental rank aggregation tasks under the well-studied Ulam metric: computing a median permutation (which minimizes the sum of Ulam distances to X) and computing a center permutation (which minimizes the maximum Ulam distance to X) in two settings. - Continuous Setting: In the continuous setting, the median/center is allowed to be any permutation. It is known that computing a center in the Ulam metric is NP-hard and we add to this by showing that computing a median is NP-hard as well via a simple reduction from the Max-Cut problem. While this result may not be unexpected, it had remained elusive until now and confirms a speculation by Chakraborty, Das, and Krauthgamer [SODA '21]. - Discrete Setting: In the discrete setting, the median/center must be a permutation from the input set. We fully resolve the fine-grained complexity of the discrete median and discrete center problems under the Ulam metric, proving that the naive Õ(n² L)-time algorithm (where L is the length of the permutation) is conditionally optimal. This resolves an open problem raised by Abboud, Bateni, Cohen-Addad, Karthik C. S., and Seddighin [APPROX '23]. Our reductions are inspired by the known fine-grained lower bounds for similarity measures, but we face and overcome several new highly technical challenges.

Approximation Schemes for Orienteering and Deadline TSP in Doubling Metrics

Authors: Kinter Ren and Mohammad R. Salavatipour

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 353, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2025)

Abstract
In this paper we look at various extensions of the classic Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) on graphs with bounded doubling dimension and bounded treewidth and present approximation schemes for them. Suppose we are given a weighted graph G = (V,E) with a start node s ∈ V, distances on the edges d:E → ℚ^+ and integer k. In k-stroll problem the goal is to find a path from s of minimum length that visits at least k vertices. In k-path we are given an additional end node t ∈ V and the path is supposed to go from s to t. The dual problem to k-stroll is the rooted orienteering in which instead of k we are given a budget B and the goal is to find a walk of length at most B starting at s that visits as many vertices as possible. In the point-to-point orienteering (P2P orienteering) we are given start and end nodes s,t and the walk is supposed to start at s and end at t. In the deadline TSP (which generalizes P2P orienteering) we are given a deadline D(v) for each v ∈ V and the goal is to find a walk starting at s that visits as many vertices as possible before their deadline (where the visit time of a node is the distance travelled from s to that node). The best approximation for rooted orienteering (or P2P orienteering) is (2+ε)-approximation [Chekuri et al., 2012] and O(log n)-approximation for deadline TSP [Nikhil Bansal et al., 2004]. For Euclidean metrics of fixed dimension, Chen and Har-Peled present [Chen and Har-Peled, 2008] a PTAS for rooted orienteering. There is no known approximation scheme for deadline TSP for any metric (not even trees). Our main result is the first approximation scheme for deadline TSP on metrics with bounded doubling dimension (which includes Euclidean metrics). To do so we first we present a quasi-polynomial time approximation scheme for k-path and P2P orienteering on such metrics. More specifically, if G is a metric with doubling dimension κ and aspect ratio Δ, we present a (1+ε)-approximation that runs in time n^{O((logΔ/ε) ^{2κ+1})}. Building upon these, we obtain an approximation scheme for deadline TSP when the distances and deadlines are integer which runs in time n^{O((log Δ/ε) ^{2κ+2})}. The same approach also implies a bicriteria (1+ε,1+ε)-approximation for deadline TSP for when distances and deadlines are in ℚ^+. For graphs with bounded treewidth ω we show how to solve k-path and P2P orienteering exactly in polynomial time and a (1+ε)-approximation for deadline TSP in time n^O((ωlogΔ/ε)²).

Sublinear Space Graph Algorithms in the Continual Release Model

Authors: Alessandro Epasto, Quanquan C. Liu, Tamalika Mukherjee, and Felix Zhou

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 353, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2025)

Abstract
The graph continual release model of differential privacy seeks to produce differentially private solutions to graph problems under a stream of edge updates where new private solutions are released after each update. Thus far, previously known edge-differentially private algorithms for most graph problems including densest subgraph and matchings in the continual release setting only output real-value estimates (not vertex subset solutions) and do not use sublinear space. Instead, they rely on computing exact graph statistics on the input [Hendrik Fichtenberger et al., 2021; Shuang Song et al., 2018]. In this paper, we leverage sparsification to address the above shortcomings for edge-insertion streams. Our edge-differentially private algorithms use sublinear space with respect to the number of edges in the graph while some also achieve sublinear space in the number of vertices in the graph. In addition, for the densest subgraph problem, we also output edge-differentially private vertex subset solutions; no previous graph algorithms in the continual release model output such subsets. We make novel use of assorted sparsification techniques from the non-private streaming and static graph algorithms literature to achieve new results in the sublinear space, continual release setting. This includes algorithms for densest subgraph, maximum matching, as well as the first continual release k-core decomposition algorithm. We also develop a novel sparse level data structure for k-core decomposition that may be of independent interest. To complement our insertion-only algorithms, we conclude with polynomial additive error lower bounds for edge-privacy in the fully dynamic setting, where only logarithmic lower bounds were previously known.

On the Complexity of Finding 1-Center Spanning Trees

Authors: Pin-Hsian Lee, Meng-Tsung Tsai, and Hung-Lung Wang

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

Abstract
We consider the problem of finding a spanning tree T of a given undirected graph G such that any other spanning tree can be obtained from T by removing k edges and subsequently adding k edges, where k is minimized over all spanning trees of G. We refer to this minimum k as the treeradius of G. Treeradius is an interesting graph parameter with natural interpretations: (1) It is the smallest radius of a Hamming ball centered at an extreme point of the spanning tree polytope that covers the entire polytope. (2) Any graph with bounded treeradius also has bounded treewidth. Consequently, if a problem admits a fixed-parameter algorithm parameterized by treewidth, it also admits a fixed-parameter algorithm parameterized by treeradius. In this paper, we show that computing the exact treeradius for n-vertex graphs requires 2^Ω(n) time under the Exponential Time Hypothesis (ETH) and does not admit a PTAS, with an inapproximability bound of 1153/1152, unless P = NP. This hardness result is surprising, as treeradius has significantly higher ETH complexity compared to analogous problems on shortest path polytopes and star subgraph polytopes.

Approximating Prize-Collecting Variants of TSP

Authors: Morteza Alimi, Tobias Mömke, and Michael Ruderer

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 345, 50th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2025)

Abstract
We present an approximation algorithm for the Prize-collecting Ordered Traveling Salesman Problem (PCOTSP), which simultaneously generalizes the Prize-collecting TSP and the Ordered TSP. The Prize-collecting TSP is well-studied and has a long history, with the current best approximation factor slightly below 1.6, shown by Blauth, Klein and Nägele [IPCO 2024]. The best approximation ratio for Ordered TSP is 3/2+1/e, presented by Böhm, Friggstad, Mömke, Spoerhase [SODA 2025] and Armbruster, Mnich, Nägele [Approx 2024]. The former also present a factor 2.2131 approximation algorithm for Multi-Path-TSP. We present a 2.097-approximation algorithm for PCOTSP, which is, to the best of our knowledge, the first result for this problem. Key ideas in our approach are to sample a set of trees and then to probabilistically pick up some vertices, and to use the pruning ideas of Blauth, Klein, Nägele [IPCO 2024] on the sampled vertices. While the sampling probability of vertices for our problem is lower than for PCTSP, intuitively leaving less spare penalty to spend, we leverage the cycle structure induced by the sampled trees together with a simple combinatorial algorithm to bring the approximation factor below 2.1. Our techniques extend to Prize-collecting Multi-Path TSP, building on results from Böhm, Friggstad, Mömke, Spoerhase [SODA 2025], leading to a 2.41-approximation.

Minimizing Recourse in an Adaptive Balls and Bins Game

Authors: Adi Fine, Haim Kaplan, and Uri Stemmer

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

Abstract
We consider a simple load-balancing game between an algorithm and an adaptive adversary. In a simplified version of this game, the adversary observes the assignment of jobs to machines and selects a machine to kill. The algorithm must then restart the jobs from the failed machine on other machines. The adversary repeats this process, observing the new assignment and eliminating another machine, and so on. The adversary aims to force the algorithm to perform many restarts, while we seek a robust algorithm that minimizes restarts regardless of the adversary’s strategy. This game was recently introduced by Bhattacharya et al. for designing a 3-spanner with low recourse against an adaptive adversary. We prove that a simple algorithm, which assigns each job to a randomly chosen live bin, incurs O(n log n) recourse against an adaptive adversary. This enables us to construct a much simpler 3-spanner with a recourse that is smaller by a factor of O(log² n) compared to the previous construction, without increasing the update time or the size of the spanner. This motivates a careful examination of the range of attacks an adaptive adversary can deploy against simple algorithms before resorting to more complex ones. As our case study demonstrates, this attack space may not be as large as it initially appears, enabling the development of robust algorithms that are both simpler and easier to analyze.

Decremental (1+ε)-Approximate Maximum Eigenvector: Dynamic Power Method

Authors: Deeksha Adil and Thatchaphol Saranurak

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

Abstract
We present a dynamic algorithm for maintaining (1+ε)-approximate maximum eigenvector and eigenvalue of a positive semi-definite matrix A undergoing decreasing updates, i.e., updates which may only decrease eigenvalues. Given a vector v updating A ← A-vv^⊤, our algorithm takes Õ(nnz(v)) amortized update time, i.e., polylogarithmic per non-zeros in the update vector. Our technique is based on a novel analysis of the influential power method in the dynamic setting. The two previous sets of techniques have the following drawbacks (1) algebraic techniques can maintain exact solutions but their update time is at least polynomial per non-zeros, and (2) sketching techniques admit polylogarithmic update time but suffer from a crude additive approximation. Our algorithm exploits an oblivious adversary. Interestingly, we show that any algorithm with polylogarithmic update time per non-zeros that works against an adaptive adversary and satisfies an additional natural property would imply a breakthrough for checking psd-ness of matrices in Õ(n²) time, instead of O(n^ω) time.

Fully Scalable MPC Algorithms for Euclidean k-Center

Authors: Artur Czumaj, Guichen Gao, Mohsen Ghaffari, and Shaofeng H.-C. Jiang

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

Abstract
The k-center problem is a fundamental optimization problem with numerous applications in machine learning, data analysis, data mining, and communication networks. The k-center problem has been extensively studied in the classical sequential setting for several decades, and more recently there have been some efforts in understanding the problem in parallel computing, on the Massively Parallel Computation (MPC) model. For now, we have a good understanding of k-center in the case where each local MPC machine has sufficient local memory to store some representatives from each cluster, that is, when one has Ω(k) local memory per machine. While this setting covers the case of small values of k, for a large number of clusters these algorithms require undesirably large local memory, making them poorly scalable. The case of large k has been considered only recently for the fully scalable low-local-memory MPC model for the Euclidean instances of the k-center problem. However, the earlier works have been considering only the constant dimensional Euclidean space, required a super-constant number of rounds, and produced only k(1+o(1)) centers whose cost is a super-constant approximation of k-center. In this work, we significantly improve upon the earlier results for the k-center problem for the fully scalable low-local-memory MPC model. In the low dimensional Euclidean case in ℝ^d, we present the first constant-round fully scalable MPC algorithm for (2+ε)-approximation. We push the ratio further to (1 + ε)-approximation albeit using slightly more (1 + ε)k centers. All these results naturally extends to slightly super-constant values of d. In the high-dimensional regime, we provide the first fully scalable MPC algorithm that in a constant number of rounds achieves an O(log n/ log log n)-approximation for k-center.

Deterministic k-Median Clustering in Near-Optimal Time

Authors: Martín Costa and Ermiya Farokhnejad

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

Abstract
The metric k-median problem is a textbook clustering problem. As input, we are given a metric space V of size n and an integer k, and our task is to find a subset S ⊆ V of at most k "centers" that minimizes the total distance from each point in V to its nearest center in S. Mettu and Plaxton [UAI'02] gave a randomized algorithm for k-median that computes a O(1)-approximation in Õ(nk) time. They also showed that any algorithm for this problem with a bounded approximation ratio must have a running time of Ω(nk). Thus, the running time of their algorithm is optimal up to polylogarithmic factors. For deterministic k-median, Guha et al. [FOCS'00] gave an algorithm that computes a poly(log (n/k))-approximation in Õ(nk) time, where the degree of the polynomial in the approximation is unspecified. To the best of our knowledge, this remains the state-of-the-art approximation of any deterministic k-median algorithm with this running time. This leads us to the following natural question: What is the best approximation of a deterministic k-median algorithm with near-optimal running time? We make progress in answering this question by giving a deterministic algorithm that computes a O(log(n/k))-approximation in Õ(nk) time. We also provide a lower bound showing that any deterministic algorithm with this running time must have an approximation ratio of Ω(log n/(log k + log log n)), establishing a gap between the randomized and deterministic settings for k-median.

Faster Semi-Streaming Matchings via Alternating Trees

Authors: Slobodan Mitrović, Anish Mukherjee, Piotr Sankowski, and Wen-Horng Sheu

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

Abstract
We design a deterministic algorithm for the (1+ε)-approximate maximum matching problem. Our primary result demonstrates that this problem can be solved in O(ε^{-6}) semi-streaming passes, improving upon the O(ε^{-19}) pass-complexity algorithm by [Fischer, Mitrović, and Uitto, STOC'22]. This contributes substantially toward resolving Open question 2 from [Assadi, SOSA'24]. Leveraging the framework introduced in [FMU'22], our algorithm achieves an analogous round complexity speed-up for computing a (1+ε)-approximate maximum matching in both the Massively Parallel Computation (MPC) and CONGEST models. The data structures maintained by our algorithm are formulated using blossom notation and represented through alternating trees. This approach enables a simplified correctness analysis by treating specific components as if operating on bipartite graphs, effectively circumventing certain technical intricacies present in prior work.

A PTAS for TSP with Neighbourhoods over Parallel Line Segments

Authors: Benyamin Ghaseminia and Mohammad R. Salavatipour

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 332, 41st International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2025)

Abstract
We consider the Travelling Salesman Problem with Neighbourhoods (TSPN) on the Euclidean plane (ℝ²) and present a Polynomial-Time Approximation Scheme (PTAS) when the neighbourhoods are parallel line segments with lengths between [1, λ] for any constant value λ ≥ 1. In TSPN (which generalizes classic TSP), each client represents a set (or neighbourhood) of points in a metric and the goal is to find a minimum cost TSP tour that visits at least one point from each client set. In the Euclidean setting, each neighbourhood is a region on the plane. TSPN is significantly more difficult than classic TSP even in the Euclidean setting, as it captures group TSP. A notable case of TSPN is when each neighbourhood is a line segment. Although there are PTASs for when neighbourhoods are fat objects (with limited overlap), TSPN over line segments is APX-hard even if all the line segments have unit length. For parallel (unit) line segments, the best approximation factor is 3√2 from more than two decades ago. The PTAS we present in this paper settles the approximability of this case of the problem. Our algorithm finds a (1 + ε)-factor approximation for an instance of the problem for n segments with lengths in [1,λ] in time n^O(λ/ε³).
