To Buy or Not to Buy: Online Rent-Or-Buy on Node-Weighted Graphs

Authors: Sander Borst and Moritz Venzin

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 364, 43rd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2026)

Abstract
We study the rent-or-buy variant of the online Steiner forest problem on node- and edge-weighted graphs. For n-node graphs with at most ̄{n} nodes of non-zero weight, and at most k̃ different arriving terminal pairs, we obtain the following: - A deterministic, O(log n log ̄{n})-competitive algorithm against adaptive adversaries. This improves on the previous best, O(log⁴ n)-competitive algorithm obtained by the black-box reduction from [Yair Bartal et al., 2001] combined with the previously best deterministic algorithms for the simpler "buy-only" setting. - A deterministic, O(̄{n}log k̃)-competitive algorithm against adaptive adversaries. This generalizes the O(log k̃)-competitive algorithm for the purely edge-weighted setting from [Seeun Umboh, 2015]. - A randomized, O(log k̃ log ̄{n})-competitive algorithm against oblivious adversaries. All previous approaches were based on the randomized, black-box reduction from [Awerbuch et al., 2004] that achieves a O(log k̃ log n)-competitive ratio when combined with an algorithm for the "buy-only" setting. Our key technical ingredient is a novel charging scheme to an instance of online prize-collecting set cover. This allows us to extend the witness-technique of [Seeun Umboh, 2015] to the node-weighted setting and obtain refined guarantees with respect to ̄{n}, already in the much simpler "buy-only" setting.

Fairness in the k-Server Problem

Authors: Mohammadreza Daneshvaramoli, Mohammad Hajiesmaili, Shahin Kamali, Helia Karisani, and Cameron Musco

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 362, 17th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2026)

Abstract
We initiate a formal study of fairness for the k-server problem, where the objective is not only to minimize the total movement cost, but also to distribute the cost equitably among servers. We first define a general notion of (α,β)-fairness, where, for parameters α ≥ 1 and β ≥ 0, no server incurs more than an α/k-fraction of the total cost plus an additive term β. We then show that fairness can be achieved without a loss in competitiveness in both the offline and online settings. In the offline setting, we give a deterministic algorithm that, for any ε > 0, transforms any optimal solution into an (α,β)-fair solution for α = 1 + ε and β = O(diam ⋅ log k / ε), while increasing the cost of the solution by just an additive O(diam ⋅ k log k / ε) term. Here diam is the diameter of the underlying metric space. We give a similar result in the online setting, showing that any competitive algorithm can be transformed into a randomized online algorithm that is fair with high probability against an oblivious adversary and still competitive up to a small loss. The above results leave open a significant question: can fairness be achieved in the online setting, either with a deterministic algorithm or a randomized algorithm, against a fully adaptive adversary? We make progress towards answering this question, showing that the classic deterministic Double Coverage Algorithm (DCA) is fair on line metrics and on tree metrics when k = 2. However, we also show a negative result: DCA fails to be fair for any non-vacuous parameters on general tree metrics. We further show that on uniform metrics (i.e., the paging problem), the deterministic First-In First-Out (FIFO) algorithm is fair. We show that any "marking algorithm", including the Least Recently Used (LRU) algorithm, also satisfies a weaker, but still meaningful notion of fairness.

Near-Optimal Sparsifiers for Stochastic Knapsack and Assignment Problems

Authors: Shaddin Dughmi, Yusuf Hakan Kalayci, and Xinyu Liu

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 362, 17th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2026)

Abstract
When uncertainty meets costly information gathering, a fundamental question emerges: which data points should we probe to unlock near-optimal solutions? Sparsification of stochastic packing problems addresses this trade-off. The existing notions of sparsification measure the level of sparsity, called degree, as the ratio of queried items to the optimal solution size. While effective for matching and matroid-type problems with uniform structures, this cardinality-based approach fails for knapsack-type constraints where feasible sets exhibit dramatic structural variation. We introduce a polyhedral sparsification framework that measures the degree as the smallest scalar needed to embed the query set within a scaled feasibility polytope, naturally capturing redundancy without relying on cardinality. Our main contribution establishes that knapsack, multiple knapsack, and generalized assignment problems admit (1-ε)-approximate sparsifiers with degree polynomial in 1/p and 1/ε - where p denotes the independent activation probability of each element - remarkably independent of problem dimensions. The key insight involves grouping items with similar weights and deploying a charging argument: when our query set misses an optimal item, we either substitute it directly with a queried item from the same group or leverage that group’s excess contribution to compensate for the loss. This reveals an intriguing complexity-theoretic separation - while the multiple knapsack problem lacks an FPTAS and generalized assignment is APX-hard, their sparsification counterparts admit efficient (1-ε)-approximation algorithms that identify polynomial degree query sets. Finally, we raise an open question: can such sparsification extend to general integer linear programs with degree independent of problem dimensions?

Query Lower Bounds for Correlation Clustering Under Memory Constraints

Authors: Sumegha Garg, Songhua He, and Periklis A. Papakonstantinou

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 362, 17th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2026)

Abstract
This work initiates the study of memory–query tradeoffs for graph problems, with a focus on correlation clustering. Correlation clustering asks for a partition of the vertices that minimizes disagreements: non‑edges inside clusters plus edges across clusters. Our first result is a tight query lower bound: to output a partition whose cost approximates the optimum up to an additive error of ε n², any algorithm requires Ω(n/ε²) adjacency-matrix queries. Under memory constraints, we show that even for the seemingly easier task of approximating the optimal clustering cost (without producing a partition), any algorithm in the random query model must make ≫ n/ε² adjacency-matrix queries. Finally, we prove the first general graph model query lower bound for correlation clustering, where algorithms are allowed adjacency-matrix, neighbor, and degree queries. The latter two bounds are not yet tight, leaving room for sharper results.

Optimal White-Box Adversarial Streaming Lower Bounds for Approximating LIS Length

Authors: Anna Gal, Gillat Kol, Raghuvansh R. Saxena, and Huacheng Yu

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 362, 17th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2026)

Abstract
The space complexity of deterministic streaming algorithms for approximating the length of the longest increasing subsequence (LIS) in a string of length n has been known to be Θ̃(√n) for almost two decades. In contrast, the space complexity of this problem for randomized streaming algorithms remains one of the few longstanding open problems in one-pass streaming. In fact, no better than Ω(log n) lower bounds are known, and the best upper bounds are no better than their deterministic counterparts. In this paper, we push the limits of our understanding of the streaming space complexity of the approximate LIS length problem by studying it in the white-box adversarial streaming model. This model is an intermediate model between deterministic and randomized streaming algorithms that has recently attracted attention. In the white-box model, the streaming algorithm can draw fresh randomness when processing each incoming element, but an adversary generating the stream observes all previously used randomness and adaptively chooses the subsequent elements of the stream. We prove a tight (up to logarithmic factors) Ω(√n) space lower bound for any white-box streaming algorithm that approximates the length of the LIS of a stream of length n to within a factor better than 1.1. Thus, for this problem, white-box algorithms offer no improvement over deterministic ones.

The Secretary Problem with Predictions and a Chosen Order

Authors: Helia Karisani, Mohammadreza Daneshvaramoli, Hedyeh Beyhaghi, Mohammad Hajiesmaili, and Cameron Musco

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 362, 17th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2026)

Abstract
We study a learning-augmented variant of the secretary problem, recently introduced by Fujii and Yoshida (2023). In this variant, the decision-maker has access to machine-learned predictions of candidate values in advance. The key challenge is to balance consistency and robustness: when the predictions are accurate, the algorithm should hire a near-best secretary; however, if they are inaccurate, the algorithm should still achieve a bounded competitive ratio. We consider both the standard Random Order Secretary Problem (ROSP), where candidates arrive in a uniform random order, and a more natural model in the learning-augmented setting, where the decision-maker can choose the arrival order based on the predicted candidate values. This model, which we call the Chosen Order Secretary Problem (COSP), can capture scenarios such as an interview schedule that is set by the decision-maker. We propose a novel algorithm that applies to both ROSP and COSP. Building on the approach of Fujii and Yoshida, our method switches from fully trusting predictions to a threshold-based rule when a large deviation of a prediction is observed. Importantly, unlike the algorithm of Fujii and Yoshida, our algorithm uses randomization as part of its decision logic. We show that if ε ∈ [0,1] denotes the maximum multiplicative prediction error, then for ROSP our algorithm achieves competitive ratio max {0.221, (1-ε)/(1+ε)}, improving on a previous bound of max {0.215, (1-ε)/(1+ε)} due to Fujii and Yoshida [Fujii and Yoshida, 2023]. For COSP, our algorithm achieves max {0.262, (1-ε)/(1+ε)}. This surpasses a 0.25 upper bound on the worst-case competitive ratio that applies to the approach of Fujii and Yoshida, and gets closer to the classical secretary benchmark of 1/e ≈ 0.368, which is an upper bound for any algorithm. Our result for COSP highlights the benefit of integrating predictions with arrival-order control in online decision-making.

Fast Re-Routing in Networks: On the Complexity of Perfect Resilience

Authors: Matthias Bentert, Esra Ceylan, Valentin Hübner, Stefan Schmid, and Jiří Srba

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 361, 29th International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems (OPODIS 2025)

Abstract
To achieve fast recovery from link failures, most modern communication networks feature fully decentralized fast re-routing mechanisms. These re-routing mechanisms rely on pre-installed static re-routing rules at the nodes (the routers), which depend only on local failure information, namely on the failed links incident to the node. Ideally, a network is perfectly resilient: the re-routing rules ensure that packets are always successfully routed to their destinations as long as the source and the destination are still physically connected in the underlying network after the failures. Unfortunately, there are examples where achieving perfect resilience is not possible. Surprisingly, only very little is known about the algorithmic aspect of when and how perfect resilience can be achieved. We investigate the computational complexity of analyzing such local fast re-routing mechanisms. Our main result is a negative one: we show that even checking whether a given set of static re-routing rules ensures perfect resilience is coNP-complete. Additionally, we investigate other fundamental variations of the problem. In particular, we show that our coNP-completeness proof also applies to scenarios where the re-routing rules have specific patterns (known as skipping in the literature). On the positive side, for scenarios where nodes do not have information about the link from which a packet arrived (the so-called in-port), we present a linear-time algorithm to realize perfect resilience whenever possible (which we show can also be determined in linear time).

Complexity of Local Search for CSPs Parameterized by Constraint Difference

Authors: Aditya Anand, Vincent Cohen-Addad, Tommaso D'Orsi, Anupam Gupta, Euiwoong Lee, Debmalya Panigrahi, and Sijin Peng

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 358, 20th International Symposium on Parameterized and Exact Computation (IPEC 2025)

Abstract
In this paper, we study the parameterized complexity of local search, whose goal is to find a good nearby solution from the given current solution. Formally, given an optimization problem where the goal is to find the largest feasible subset S of a universe U, the new input consists of a current solution P (not necessarily feasible) as well as an ordinary input for the problem. Given the existence of a feasible solution S^*, the goal is to find a feasible solution as good as S^* in parameterized time f(k)⋅n^O(1), where k denotes the distance |PΔ S^*|. This model generalizes numerous classical parameterized optimization problems whose parameter k is the minimum number of elements removed from U to make it feasible, which corresponds to the case P = U. We apply this model to widely studied Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs), where U is the set of constraints, and a subset U' of constraints is feasible if there is an assignment to the variables satisfying all constraints in U'. We give a complete characterization of the parameterized complexity of all boolean-alphabet symmetric CSPs, where the predicate’s acceptance depends on the number of true literals.

A Parameterized Study of Secluded Structures in Directed Graphs

Authors: Jonas Schmidt, Shaily Verma, and Nadym Mallek

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 359, 36th International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2025)

Abstract
Given an undirected graph G and an integer k, the Secluded Π-Subgraph problem asks you to find a maximum size induced subgraph that satisfies a property Π and has at most k neighbors in the rest of the graph. This problem has been extensively studied; however, there is no prior study of the problem in directed graphs. This question has been mentioned by Jansen et al. [ISAAC'23]. In this paper, we initiate the study of Secluded Subgraph problems in directed graphs by incorporating different notions of neighborhoods: in-neighborhood, out-neighborhood, and their union. Formally, we call these problems {In, Out, Total}-Secluded Π-Subgraph, where given a directed graph G and an integer k, we want to find an induced subgraph satisfying Π of maximum size that has at most k in/out/total-neighbors in the rest of the graph, respectively. We investigate the parameterized complexity of these problems for different properties Π. In particular, we prove the following parameterized results: - We design an FPT algorithm for the Total-Secluded Strongly Connected Subgraph problem when parameterized by k. - We show that the Out-Secluded ℱ-Free Subgraph problem with parameter k is W[1]-hard, where ℱ is a family of directed graphs except any subgraph of a star graph whose edges are directed towards the center. This result also implies that In/Out-Secluded DAG is W[1]-hard, unlike the undirected variants of the two problems, which are FPT. - We design an FPT-algorithm for In/Out/Total-Secluded α-Bounded Subgraph when parameterized by k, where α-bounded graphs are a superclass of tournaments. - For undirected graphs, we improve the best-known FPT algorithm for Secluded Clique by providing a faster FPT algorithm that runs in time 1.6181^k n^𝒪(1).

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.

Graph Modification of Bounded Size to Minor-Closed Classes as Fast as Vertex Deletion

Authors: Laure Morelle, Ignasi Sau, and Dimitrios M. Thilikos

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

Abstract
A replacement action is a function ℒ that maps each graph H to a collection of graphs of size at most |V(H)|. Given a graph class ℋ, we consider a general family of graph modification problems, called ℒ-Replacement to ℋ, where the input is a graph G and the question is whether it is possible to replace some induced subgraph H₁ of G on at most k vertices by a graph H₂ in ℒ(H₁) so that the resulting graph belongs to ℋ. ℒ-Replacement to ℋ can simulate many graph modification problems including vertex deletion, edge deletion/addition/edition/contraction, vertex identification, subgraph complementation, independent set deletion, (induced) matching deletion/contraction, etc. We present two algorithms. The first one solves ℒ-Replacement to ℋ in time 2^poly(k) ⋅ |V(G)|² for every minor-closed graph class ℋ, where poly is a polynomial whose degree depends on ℋ, under a mild technical condition on ℒ. This generalizes the results of Morelle, Sau, Stamoulis, and Thilikos [ICALP 2020, ICALP 2023] for the particular case of Vertex Deletion to ℋ within the same running time. Our second algorithm is an improvement of the first one when ℋ is the class of graphs embeddable in a surface of Euler genus at most g and runs in time 2^𝒪(k⁹) ⋅ |V(G)|², where the 𝒪(⋅) notation depends on g. To the best of our knowledge, these are the first parameterized algorithms with a reasonable parametric dependence for such a general family of graph modification problems to minor-closed classes.

On the Complexity of Knapsack Under Explorable Uncertainty: Hardness and Algorithms

Authors: Jens Schlöter

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

Abstract
In the knapsack problem under explorable uncertainty, we are given a knapsack instance with uncertain item profits. Instead of having access to the precise profits, we are only given uncertainty intervals that are guaranteed to contain the corresponding profits. The actual item profit can be obtained via a query. The goal of the problem is to adaptively query item profits until the revealed information suffices to compute an optimal (or approximate) solution to the underlying knapsack instance. Since queries are costly, the objective is to minimize the number of queries. In the offline variant of this problem, we assume knowledge of the precise profits and the task is to compute a query set of minimum cardinality that a third party without access to the profits could use to identify an optimal (or approximate) knapsack solution. We show that this offline variant is complete for the second-level of the polynomial hierarchy, i.e., Σ₂^p-complete, and cannot be approximated within a non-trivial factor unless Σ₂^p = Δ₂^p. Motivated by these strong hardness results, we consider a "resource-augmented" variant of the problem where the requirements on the query set computed by an algorithm are less strict than the requirements on the optimal solution we compare against. More precisely, a query set computed by the algorithm must reveal sufficient information to identify an approximate knapsack solution, while the optimal query set we compare against has to reveal sufficient information to identify an optimal solution. We show that this resource-augmented setting allows interesting non-trivial algorithmic results.

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.

Max-Distance Sparsification for Diversification and Clustering

Authors: Soh Kumabe

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

Abstract
Let 𝒟 be a set family that is the solution domain of some combinatorial problem. The max-min diversification problem on 𝒟 is the problem to select k sets from 𝒟 such that the Hamming distance between any two selected sets is at least d. FPT algorithms parameterized by k+𝓁, where 𝓁 = max_{D ∈ 𝒟}|D|, and k+d have been actively studied recently for several specific domains. This paper provides unified algorithmic frameworks to solve this problem. Specifically, for each parameterization k+𝓁 and k+d, we provide an FPT oracle algorithm for the max-min diversification problem using oracles related to 𝒟. We then demonstrate that our frameworks provide the first FPT algorithms on several new domains 𝒟, including the domain of t-linear matroid intersection, almost 2-SAT, minimum edge s,t-flows, vertex sets of s,t-mincut, vertex sets of edge bipartization, and Steiner trees. We also demonstrate that our frameworks generalize most of the existing domain-specific tractability results. Our main technical breakthrough is introducing the notion of max-distance sparsifier of 𝒟, a domain on which the max-min diversification problem is equivalent to the same problem on the original domain 𝒟. The core of our framework is to design FPT oracle algorithms that construct a constant-size max-distance sparsifier of 𝒟. Using max-distance sparsifiers, we provide FPT algorithms for the max-min and max-sum diversification problems on 𝒟, as well as k-center and k-sum-of-radii clustering problems on 𝒟, which are also natural problems in the context of diversification and have their own interests.

Faster Algorithm for Bounded Tree Edit Distance in the Low-Distance Regime

Authors: Tomasz Kociumaka and Ali Shahali

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

Abstract
The tree edit distance is a natural dissimilarity measure between rooted ordered trees whose nodes are labeled over an alphabet Σ. It is defined as the minimum number of node edits - insertions, deletions, and relabelings - required to transform one tree into the other. The weighted variant assigns costs ≥ 1 to edits (based on node labels), minimizing total cost rather than edit count. The unweighted tree edit distance between two trees of total size n can be computed in 𝒪(n^{2.6857}) time; in contrast, determining the weighted tree edit distance is fine-grained equivalent to the All-Pairs Shortest Paths (APSP) problem and requires n³/2^Ω(√{log n}) time [Nogler, Polak, Saha, Vassilevska Williams, Xu, Ye; STOC'25]. These impractical super-quadratic times for large, similar trees motivate the bounded version, parameterizing runtime by the distance k to enable faster algorithms for k ≪ n. Prior algorithms for bounded unweighted edit distance achieve 𝒪(nk²log n) [Akmal & Jin; ICALP’21] and 𝒪(n + k⁷log k) [Das, Gilbert, Hajiaghayi, Kociumaka, Saha; STOC'23]. For weighted, only 𝒪(n + k^{15}) is known [Das, Gilbert, Hajiaghayi, Kociumaka, Saha; STOC'23]. We present an 𝒪(n + k⁶ log k)-time algorithm for bounded tree edit distance in both weighted/unweighted settings. First, we devise a simpler weighted 𝒪(nk² log n)-time algorithm. Next, we exploit periodic structures in input trees via an optimized universal kernel: modifying prior 𝒪(n)-time 𝒪(k⁵)-size kernels to generate such structured instances, enabling efficient analysis.
