Towards Stronger Depth Lower Bounds

Authors: Gabriel Bathie and R. Ryan Williams

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 287, 15th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2024)


Abstract
A fundamental problem in circuit complexity is to find explicit functions that require large depth to compute. When considering the natural DeMorgan basis of {OR,AND}, where negations incur no cost, the best known depth lower bounds for an explicit function in NP have the form (3-o(1))log₂ n, established by Håstad (building on others) in the early 1990s. We make progress on the problem of improving this factor of 3, in two different ways: - We consider an "algorithmic method" approach to proving stronger depth lower bounds for non-uniform circuits in the DeMorgan basis. We show that slightly faster algorithms (than what is known) for counting the number of satisfying assignments on subcubic-size DeMorgan formulas would imply supercubic-size DeMorgan formula lower bounds, implying that the depth must be at least (3+ε)log₂ n for some ε > 0. For example, if #SAT on formulas of size n^{2+2ε} can be solved in 2^{n - n^{1-ε}log^k n} time for some ε > 0 and a sufficiently large constant k, then there is a function computable in 2^{O(n)} time with a SAT oracle which does not have n^{3+ε}-size formulas. In fact, the #SAT algorithm only has to work on formulas that are a conjunction of n^{1-ε} subformulas, each of which is n^{1+3ε} size, in order to obtain the supercubic lower bound. As a proof of concept, we show that our new algorithms-to-lower-bounds connection can be applied to prove new lower bounds for "hybrid" DeMorgan formula models which compute interesting functions at their leaves. - Turning to the {NAND} basis, we establish a greater-than-(3 log₂ n) depth lower bound against uniform circuits solving the SAT problem, using an extension of the "indirect diagonalization" method for NAND formulas. Note that circuits over the NAND basis are a special case of circuits over the DeMorgan basis; however, hard functions such as Andreev’s function (known to require depth (3-o(1))log₂ n in the DeMorgan basis) can still be computed with NAND circuits of depth (3+o(1))log₂ n. Our results imply that SAT requires polylogtime-uniform NAND circuits of depth at least 3.603 log₂ n.

Small-Space Algorithms for the Online Language Distance Problem for Palindromes and Squares

Authors: Gabriel Bathie, Tomasz Kociumaka, and Tatiana Starikovskaya

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 283, 34th International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2023)


Abstract
We study the online variant of the language distance problem for two classical formal languages, the language of palindromes and the language of squares, and for the two most fundamental distances, the Hamming distance and the edit (Levenshtein) distance. In this problem, defined for a fixed formal language L, we are given a string T of length n, and the task is to compute the minimal distance to L from every prefix of T. We focus on the low-distance regime, where one must compute only the distances smaller than a given threshold k. In this work, our contribution is twofold: 1) First, we show streaming algorithms, which access the input string T only through a single left-to-right scan. Both for palindromes and squares, our algorithms use O(k polylog n) space and time per character in the Hamming-distance case and O(k² polylog n) space and time per character in the edit-distance case. These algorithms are randomised by necessity, and they err with probability inverse-polynomial in n. 2) Second, we show deterministic read-only online algorithms, which are also provided with read-only random access to the already processed characters of T. Both for palindromes and squares, our algorithms use O(k polylog n) space and time per character in the Hamming-distance case and O(k⁴ polylog n) space and amortised time per character in the edit-distance case.

PACE Solver Description
PACE Solver Description: DreyFVS

Authors: Gabriel Bathie, Gaétan Berthe, Yoann Coudert-Osmont, David Desobry, Amadeus Reinald, and Mathis Rocton

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 249, 17th International Symposium on Parameterized and Exact Computation (IPEC 2022)


Abstract
We describe DreyFVS, a heuristic for Directed Feedback Vertex Set submitted to the 2022 edition of Parameterized Algorithms and Computational Experiments Challenge. The Directed Feedback Vertex Set problem asks to remove a minimal number of vertices from a digraph such that the resulting digraph is acyclic. Our algorithm first performs a guess on a reduced instance by leveraging the Sinkhorn-Knopp algorithm, to then improve this solution by pipelining two local search methods.

(Sub)linear Kernels for Edge Modification Problems Towards Structured Graph Classes

Authors: Gabriel Bathie, Nicolas Bousquet, and Théo Pierron

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 214, 16th International Symposium on Parameterized and Exact Computation (IPEC 2021)


Abstract
In a (parameterized) graph edge modification problem, we are given a graph G, an integer k and a (usually well-structured) class of graphs 𝒢, and ask whether it is possible to transform G into a graph G' ∈ 𝒢 by adding and/or removing at most k edges. Parameterized graph edge modification problems received considerable attention in the last decades. In this paper, we focus on finding small kernels for edge modification problems. One of the most studied problems is the Cluster Editing problem, in which the goal is to partition the vertex set into a disjoint union of cliques. Even if this problem admits a 2k kernel [Cao and Chen, 2012], this kernel does not reduce the size of most instances. Therefore, we explore the question of whether linear kernels are a theoretical limit in edge modification problems, in particular when the target graphs are very structured (such as a partition into cliques for instance). We prove, as far as we know, the first sublinear kernel for an edge modification problem. Namely, we show that Clique + Independent Set Deletion, which is a restriction of Cluster Deletion, admits a kernel of size O(k/log k). We also obtain small kernels for several other edge modification problems. We prove that Split Addition (and the equivalent Split Deletion) admits a linear kernel, improving the existing quadratic kernel of Ghosh et al. [Ghosh et al., 2015]. We complement this result by proving that Trivially Perfect Addition admits a quadratic kernel (improving the cubic kernel of Guo [Guo, 2007]), and finally prove that its triangle-free version (Starforest Deletion) admits a linear kernel, which is optimal under ETH.

Property Testing of Regular Languages with Applications to Streaming Property Testing of Visibly Pushdown Languages

Authors: Gabriel Bathie and Tatiana Starikovskaya

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 198, 48th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2021)


Abstract
In this work, we revisit the problem of testing membership in regular languages, first studied by Alon et al. [Alon et al., 2001]. We develop a one-sided error property tester for regular languages under weighted edit distance that makes 𝒪(ε^{-1} log(1/ε)) non-adaptive queries, assuming that the language is described by an automaton of constant size. Moreover, we show a matching lower bound, essentially closing the problem for the edit distance. As an application, we improve the space bound of the current best streaming property testing algorithm for visibly pushdown languages from 𝒪(ε^{-4} log⁶ n) to 𝒪(ε^{-3} log⁵ n log log n), where n is the size of the input. Finally, we provide a Ω(max(ε^{-1}, log n)) lower bound on the memory necessary to test visibly pushdown languages in the streaming model, significantly narrowing the gap between the known bounds.
