When Does Sparsity Help for k-Independent Set in Hypergraphs and Other Boolean CSPs?

Authors: Timo Fritsch, Marvin Künnemann, Mirza Redzic, and Julian Stieß

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 374, 53rd International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2026)

Abstract
Consider the fundamental task of finding independent sets of (constant) size k in a given n-node hypergraph. How much is the time complexity affected by the sparsity of the input, i.e., the number of hyperedges m? Turán’s theorem implies that the problem is trivial if m = O(n^{2-ε}) for some ε > 0. Above that threshold (i.e., if m = Θ(n^γ) for some γ ≥ 2), we give a perhaps surprising algorithm with running time O(min{ n^({ω/3}k) + m^{k/3}, n^k}) (for k divisible by 3), which is essentially conditionally optimal for all γ ≥ 2, assuming the k-clique and 3-uniform hyperclique hypotheses (here, ω ≤ 2.372 denotes the matrix multiplication exponent). In fact, we obtain a more detailed time complexity that is sensitive to the arity distribution of the hyperedges. To study such phenomena in more generality, we study the time complexity of finding solutions of (constant) size k in sparse instances of Boolean constraint satisfaction problems, where n and m denote the number of variables and constraints, respectively. Our results include, among others: - an essentially full classification of the influence of sparsity for Boolean constraint families of binary arity. Of particular technical interest is a conditionally tight algorithm for the family consisting of the binary NAND and the binary Implication constraints, with a running time of Θ(m^{ω k/6 ± c}). - the identification of a large class of constraint families ℱ that exhibits a sharp phase transition: there is a threshold γ_ℱ such that the problem is trivial for m = O(n^{γ_ℱ-ε}), but requires essentially brute-force running time Θ(n^{k±c}) for m = Ω(n^{γ_ℱ}), assuming the 3-uniform hyperclique hypothesis. In general, we observe a rich landscape of time complexities. Notably, in many cases the combination of constraints display higher time complexity than either constraint alone.

Exploring the Gap Between LCS and LCStr

Authors: Shay Golan, Matan Kraus, Ely Porat, and B. Riva Shalom

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 369, 37th Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2026)

Abstract
The Longest Common Subsequence (LCS) problem and the Longest Common Substring (LCStr) problem are classical string problems with broad theoretical and practical significance. The former has a quadratic conditional lower bound [FOCS, 2015], while the latter admits a linear-time solution. In this paper, we study a natural variation of these problems, the Longest Common Subsequence-Substring (LCSS) problem. The LCSS problem seeks the longest string that is simultaneously a subsequence of one input string and a substring of the other. This variant bridges LCS and LCStr, raising intriguing algorithmic questions: Does the complexity of computing LCSS interpolate between the linear time of LCStr and the quadratic time of LCS? What about approximability? We also examine a natural extension of LCSS to multiple strings, parameterizing the balance between subsequence and substring requirements. Our results reveal several insights. First, under the SETH conjecture, the inherent complexity of LCSS is quadratic, similar to LCS. In contrast, we provide a linear-time approximation for LCSS. Finally, for the multi-string variant, unlike both problems, we design a quadratic-time algorithm, uncovering deeper structural properties of the problem. By studying the complexity of the LCSS problem, we aim to gain some understanding of what influences whether a variant of the LCS problem behaves more like the standard LCS or like LCStr. Our findings suggest that hybrid constraints can create computational "sweet spots," where problems become more tractable than their pure counterparts. This opens a broader research direction in constraint-mediated algorithm design. Beyond LCSS itself, our work highlights unexpected connections between subsequence and substring constraints, advancing the theoretical understanding of string problems and laying the foundation for new algorithmic techniques and complexity-theoretic insights in the rich space between classical string comparison paradigms.

Dynamic and Streaming Algorithms for Union Volume Estimation

Authors: Sujoy Bhore, Karl Bringmann, Timothy M. Chan, and Yanheng Wang

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

Abstract
The union volume estimation problem asks to (1±ε)-approximate the volume of the union of n given objects X₁,…,X_n ⊂ ℝ^d. In their seminal work in 1989, Karp, Luby, and Madras solved this problem in time O(n/ε²) in an oracle model where each object X_i can be accessed via three types of queries: obtain the volume of X_i, sample a random point from X_i, and test whether X_i contains a given point x. This running time was recently shown to be optimal [Bringmann, Larsen, Nusser, Rotenberg, and Wang, SoCG'25]. In another line of work, Meel, Vinodchandran, and Chakraborty [PODS'21] designed algorithms that read the objects in one pass using polylogarithmic time per object and polylogarithmic space; this can be phrased as a dynamic algorithm supporting insertions of objects for union volume estimation in the oracle model. In this paper, we study algorithms for union volume estimation in the oracle model that support both insertions and deletions of objects. We obtain the following results: 1) an algorithm supporting insertions and deletions in polylogarithmic update and query time and linear space (this is the first such dynamic algorithm, even for 2D triangles); 2) an algorithm supporting insertions and suffix queries (which generalizes the sliding window setting) in polylogarithmic update and query time and space; 3) an algorithm supporting insertions and deletions of convex bodies of constant dimension in polylogarithmic update and query time and space.

Fréchet Distance in the Imbalanced Case

Authors: Lotte Blank

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

Abstract
Given two polygonal curves P and Q defined by n and m vertices with m ≤ n, we show that the discrete Fréchet distance in 1D cannot be approximated within a factor of 2-ε in 𝒪((nm)^{1-δ}) time for any ε, δ > 0 unless OVH fails. Using a similar construction, we extend this bound for curves in 2D under the continuous or discrete Fréchet distance and increase the approximation factor to 1+√2-ε (resp. 3-ε) if the curves lie in the Euclidean space (resp. in the L_∞-space). This strengthens the lower bound by Buchin, Ophelders, and Speckmann to the case where m = n^α for α ∈ (0,1) and increases the approximation factor of 1.001 by Bringmann. For the discrete Fréchet distance in 1D, we provide an approximation algorithm with optimal approximation factor and almost optimal running time. Further, for curves in any dimension embedded in any L_p space, we present a (3+ε)-approximation algorithm for the continuous and discrete Fréchet distance using 𝒪((n+m²)log n) time, which almost matches the approximation factor of the lower bound for the L_∞ metric.

Computing L_∞ Hausdorff Distances Under Translations: The Interplay of Dimensionality, Symmetry and Discreteness

Authors: Sebastian Angrick, Kevin Buchin, Geri Gokaj, and Marvin Künnemann

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

Abstract
To measure the similarity of the shape of point sets, rather than their mere closeness in space, various notions of a Hausdorff distance under translation have been investigated. Specifically, let P and Q denote point sets of n and m points, respectively, in ℝ^d. We consider the task of computing the minimum distance d(P,Q+τ) over an admissible set of translations τ ∈ T, where d(⋅, ⋅) denotes the Hausdorff distance under the L_∞-norm. As variants, we distinguish between continuous (T = ℝ^d) or discrete (T is a given finite set of t translations) as well as directed or undirected (choosing the directed or undirected Hausdorff distance for d(⋅, ⋅)). We seek to apply the paradigm of fine-grained complexity to understand the complexity of these variants, and in particular: How is the running time influenced by the dimension d, the relationship between n and m, and the specific choice of variant? As our main results, we obtain: - The asymmetric definition of the most studied variant, the continuous directed Hausdorff distance, results in an intrinsically asymmetric time complexity: While (Chan, SoCG'23) established a symmetric Õ((nm)^{d/2}) upper bound for all d ≥ 3 and proved it to be conditionally optimal for combinatorial algorithms whenever m ≤ n, we show that this lower bound does not hold for the case n ≪ m, by providing a combinatorial, almost-linear-time algorithm for d = 3 and n = m^{o(1)}. We further prove general, i.e., non-combinatorial, conditional lower bounds for d ≥ 3, in particular: (1) m^{⌊d/2⌋ - o(1)} for small n and (2) n^{d/2 - o(1)} for d = 3 and small m. - We observe that the directed and undirected case is closely related, in particular, all our lower bounds for d ≥ 3 hold for both the directed and undirected variant. A remarkable exception is the case of d = 1 for which we provide a conditional separation. Specifically, in contrast to the undirected variants being solvable in near-linear time (Rote, IPL'91), we show that the directed variants are at least as hard as the additive problem MaxConv LowerBound introduced in (Cygan, Mucha, Wegrzycki and Wlodarczyk, TALG'19). - We show that the discrete variants reduce to a variant of 3SUM for d ≤ 3. This gives a barrier in proving a tight lower bound of these variants under the Orthogonal Vectors Hypothesis (OVH); in contrast, the continuous variants admit a tight conditional lower bound under OVH in d = 2 (Bringmann, Nusser, JoCG'21). These results reveal an intricate interplay of dimensionality, symmetry and discreteness in determining the fine-grained complexity of computing Hausdorff distances under translation.

Charting the Diameter Computation Landscape of Intersection Graphs in 3D and Above

Authors: Timothy M. Chan, Hsien-Chih Chang, Jie Gao, Sándor Kisfaludi-Bak, Hung Le, and Da Wei Zheng

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

Abstract
Recent research on computing the diameter of geometric intersection graphs has made significant strides, primarily focusing on the 2D case [Duraj et al., 2024; Hsien-Chih Chang et al., 2024; Chan et al., 2025] where truly subquadratic-time algorithms were given for simple objects such as unit-disks and (axis-aligned) squares. However, in three or higher dimensions, there is no known truly subquadratic-time algorithm for any intersection graph of non-trivial objects, even basic ones such as unit balls or (axis-aligned) unit cubes. This was partially explained by the pioneering work of Bringmann et al. [Karl Bringmann et al., 2022] which gave several truly subquadratic lower bounds, notably for unit balls or unit cubes in 3D when the graph diameter Δ is at least Ω(log n), hinting at a pessimistic outlook for the complexity of the diameter problem in higher dimensions. In this paper, we substantially extend the landscape of diameter computation for objects in three and higher dimensions, giving a few positive results. Our highlighted findings include: 1) A truly subquadratic-time algorithm for deciding if the diameter of unit cubes in 3D is at most 3 (Diameter-3 hereafter), the first algorithm of its kind for objects in 3D or higher dimensions. Our algorithm is based on a novel connection to pseudolines, which is of independent interest. 2) A truly subquadratic time lower bound for Diameter-3 of unit balls in 3D under the Orthogonal Vector (OV) hypothesis, giving the first separation between unit balls and unit cubes in the small diameter regime. Previously, computing the diameter for both objects was known to be quadratic hard when the diameter is Ω(log n) [Karl Bringmann et al., 2022]. 3) A near-linear-time algorithm for Diameter-2 of unit cubes in 3D, generalizing the previous result for unit squares in 2D [Karl Bringmann et al., 2022]. 4) A truly subquadratic-time algorithm and lower bound for Diameter-2 and Diameter-3 of rectangular boxes (of arbitrary dimension and sizes), respectively.

Computing the Girth of a Segment Intersection Graph

Authors: Timothy M. Chan and Yuancheng Yu

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

Abstract
We present an algorithm that computes the girth of the intersection graph of n given line segments in the plane in O(n^1.483) expected time. This is the first such algorithm with O(n^{3/2-ε}) running time for a positive constant ε, and makes progress towards an open question posed by Chan (SODA 2023). The main techniques include (i) the usage of recent subcubic algorithms for bounded-difference min-plus matrix multiplication, and (ii) an interesting variant of the planar graph separator theorem. The result extends to intersection graphs of connected algebraic curves or semialgebraic sets of constant description complexity.

On Computing the (Exact) Fréchet Distance with a Frog

Authors: Jacobus Conradi, Ivor van der Hoog, and Eva Rotenberg

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

Abstract
The continuous Fréchet distance 𝒟_F(π,σ) between two polygonal curves π and σ is classically computed by exploring the free space diagram over the two curves. [SoCG'25] recently proposed a radically different approach: they approximate 𝒟_F(π,σ) by computing paths in a discrete graph that models a joint traversal of π and σ, recursively bisecting edges until the discrete distance converges to the continuous one. They implement their "frog-based" technique, and claim that it yields substantial practical speedups compared to the state-of-the-art implementations. In this paper, we revisit this technique. We observe that, in its current form, it has three limitations: (i) it does not use exact arithmetic, (ii) its recursive bisection introduces the required monotonicity events to realise the Fréchet distance only in the limit, and (iii) it applies a heuristic simplification technique which is overly conservative. Motivated by theoretical interest, we develop new techniques that guarantee exactness, polynomial-time convergence and near-optimal lossless simplifications. We provide an open-source C++ implementation of our variant. Our primary contribution is an extensive empirical evaluation on a broad, publically available, suite of real-world and synthetic data sets. Among the frog-based variants, exact computation indeed introduces overhead and increases median runtime. Yet, our new approach is often faster in the worst case, worst ten percent, or even the average runtime due to its worst-case convergence guarantees. More surprisingly, the implementation of [SoCG'19] dominates all frog-based implementations in performance - this finding contrasts previously published claims. These results provide a much-needed nuanced perspective on the capabilities and limitations of frog-based techniques: we showcase its theoretical appeal, but highlight its limited practical feasibility.

Approximating Pareto Sum via Bounded Monotone Min-Plus Convolution

Authors: Geri Gokaj, Marvin Künnemann, Sabine Storandt, and Carina Truschel

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

Abstract
The Pareto sum of two-dimensional point sets P and Q in ℝ² is defined as the skyline of the points in their Minkowski sum. The problem of efficiently computing the Pareto sum arises frequently in bi-criteria optimization algorithms. Prior work establishes that computing the Pareto sum of sets P and Q of size n suffers from conditional lower bounds that rule out strongly subquadratic O(n^{2-ε})-time algorithms, even when the output size is Θ(n). Naturally, we ask: How efficiently can we approximate Pareto sums, both in theory and practice? Can we beat the near-quadratic-time state of the art for exact algorithms? On the theoretical side, we formulate a notion of additively approximate Pareto sets and show that computing an approximate Pareto set is fine-grained equivalent to Bounded Monotone Min-Plus Convolution. Leveraging a remarkable Õ(n^{1.5})-time algorithm for the latter problem (Chi, Duan, Xie, Zhang; STOC '22), we thus obtain a strongly subquadratic (and conditionally optimal) approximation algorithm for computing Pareto sums. On the practical side, we engineer different algorithmic approaches for approximating Pareto sets on realistic instances. Our implementations enable a granular trade-off between approximation quality and running time/output size compared to the state of the art for exact algorithms established in (Funke, Hespe, Sanders, Storandt, Truschel; Algorithmica '25). Perhaps surprisingly, the (theoretical) connection to Bounded Monotone Min-Plus Convolution remains beneficial even for our implementations: in particular, we implement a simplified, yet still subquadratic version of an algorithm due to Chi, Duan, Xie and Zhang, which on some sufficiently large instances outperforms the competing quadratic-time approaches.

Mind the Gap. Doubling Constant Parametrization of Weighted Problems: TSP, Max-Cut, and More

Authors: Mihail Stoian

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

Abstract
Despite much research, hard weighted problems still resist super-polynomial improvements over their textbook solution. On the other hand, the unweighted versions of these problems have recently witnessed the sought-after speedups. Currently, the only way to repurpose the algorithm of the unweighted version for the weighted version is to employ a polynomial embedding of the input weights. This, however, introduces a pseudo-polynomial factor into the running time, which becomes impractical for arbitrarily weighted instances. In this paper, we introduce a new way to repurpose the algorithm of the unweighted problem. Specifically, we show that the time complexity of several well-known NP-hard problems operating over the (min, +) and (max, +) semirings, such as TSP, Weighted Max-Cut, and Edge-Weighted k-Clique, is proportional to that of their unweighted versions when the set of input weights has small doubling. We achieve this by a meta-algorithm that converts the input weights into polynomially bounded integers using the recent constructive Freiman’s theorem by Randolph and Węgrzycki [ESA 2024] before applying the polynomial embedding.

Approximate Cartesian Tree Matching with Substitutions

Authors: Panagiotis Charalampopoulos, Jonas Ellert, and Manal Mohamed

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

Abstract
The Cartesian tree of a sequence captures the relative order of the sequence’s elements. In recent years, Cartesian tree matching has attracted considerable attention, particularly due to its applications in time series analysis. Consider a text T of length n and a pattern P of length m. In the exact Cartesian tree matching problem, the task is to find all length-m fragments of T whose Cartesian tree coincides with the Cartesian tree CT(P) of the pattern. Although the exact version of the problem can be solved in linear time [Park et al., TCS 2020], it remains rather restrictive; for example, it is not robust to outliers in the pattern. To overcome this limitation, we consider the approximate setting, where the goal is to identify all fragments of T that are close to some string whose Cartesian tree matches CT(P). In this work, we quantify closeness via the widely used Hamming distance metric. For a given integer parameter k > 0, we present an algorithm that computes all fragments of T that are at Hamming distance at most k from a string whose Cartesian tree matches CT(P). Our algorithm runs in time 𝒪(n √m ⋅ k^{2.5}) for k ≤ m^{1/5} and in time 𝒪(nk⁵) for k ≥ m^{1/5}, thereby improving upon the state-of-the-art 𝒪(nmk)-time algorithm of Kim and Han [TCS 2025] in the regime k = o(m^{1/4}). On the way to our solution, we develop a toolbox of independent interest. First, we introduce a new notion of periodicity in Cartesian trees. Then, we lift multiple well-known combinatorial and algorithmic results for string matching and periodicity in strings to Cartesian tree matching and periodicity in Cartesian trees.

On the PTAS Complexity of Multidimensional Knapsack

Authors: Ilan Doron-Arad, Ariel Kulik, and Pasin Manurangsi

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

Abstract
We study the d-dimensional knapsack problem. We are given a set of items, each with a d-dimensional cost vector and a profit, along with a d-dimensional budget vector. The goal is to select a set of items that do not exceed the budget in all dimensions and maximize the total profit. A polynomial-time approximation scheme (PTAS) with running time n^{Θ(d/{ε})} has long been known for this problem, where {ε} is the error parameter and n is the encoding size. Despite decades of active research, the best running time of a PTAS has remained O(n^{⌈ d/{ε} ⌉ - d}). Unfortunately, existing lower bounds only cover the special case with two dimensions d = 2, and do not answer whether there is a n^{o(d/({ε)})}-time PTAS for larger values of d. In this work, we show that the running times of the best-known PTAS cannot be improved up to a polylogarithmic factor assuming the Exponential Time Hypothesis (ETH). Our techniques are based on a robust reduction from 2-CSP, which embeds 2-CSP constraints into a desired number of dimensions. Then, using a recent result of [Bafna Karthik and Minzer, STOC'25], we succeed in exhibiting tight trade-off between d and {ε} for all regimes of the parameters assuming d is sufficiently large. Informally, our result also shows that under ETH, for any function f there is no f(d/({ε)}) ⋅ n^{õ(d/({ε)})}-time (1-{ε})-approximation for d-dimensional knapsack, where n is the number of items and õ hides polylogarithmic factors in d/({ε)}.

A Note on the Parameterised Complexity of Coverability in Vector Addition Systems

Authors: Michał Pilipczuk, Sylvain Schmitz, and Henry Sinclair-Banks

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

Abstract
We investigate the parameterised complexity of the classic coverability problem for vector addition systems (VAS): V ⊆ ℤ^d, an initial configuration s ∈ ℕ^d, and a target configuration t ∈ ℕ^d, decide whether starting from s, one can iteratively add vectors from V to ultimately arrive at a configuration that is larger than or equal to t on every coordinate, while not observing any negative value on any coordinate along the way. We consider two natural parameters for the problem: the dimension d and the size of V, defined as the total bitsize of its encoding. We present several results charting the complexity of those two parameterisations, among which the highlight is that coverability for VAS parameterised by the dimension and with all the numbers in the input encoded in unary is complete for the class XNL under PL-reductions. We also discuss open problems in the topic, most notably the question about fixed-parameter tractability for the parameterisation by the size of V.

On the Shape Containment Problem Within the Amoebot Model with Reconfigurable Circuits

Authors: Matthias Artmann, Andreas Padalkin, and Christian Scheideler

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

Abstract
In programmable matter, we consider a large number of tiny, primitive computational entities called particles that run distributed algorithms to control global properties of the particle structure. Shape formation problems, where the particles have to reorganize themselves into a desired shape using basic movement abilities, are particularly interesting. In the related shape containment problem, the particles are given the description of a shape S and have to find maximally scaled representations of S within the initial configuration, without movements. For example, if S is a triangle, they have to identify the largest subsets of particles that already form a triangle. While the shape formation problem is being studied extensively, no attention has been given to the shape containment problem, which may have additional uses besides shape formation, such as detecting structural flaws. In this paper, we consider the shape containment problem within the geometric amoebot model for programmable matter, using its reconfigurable circuit extension to enable the instantaneous transmission of primitive signals on connected subsets of particles. We first prove a lower runtime bound of Ω (√n) synchronous rounds for the general problem, where n is the number of particles. Then, we present simple and efficient primitives for identifying subsets that form the desired shape. Using these primitives, we construct a large class of shapes which we call snowflakes. This class contains, among others, all shapes composed of parallelograms and hexagons, and the class of star convex shapes. Let k be the maximum scale of the considered shape in a given amoebot structure. If the shape is star convex, we solve it within 𝒪 (log² k) rounds. If it is a snowflake but not star convex, we solve it within 𝒪 (√n log n) rounds.

Towards Constant Time Multi-Call Rumor Spreading on Small-Set Expanders

Authors: Emilio Cruciani, Sebastian Forster, and Tijn de Vos

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

Abstract
We study a multi-call variant of the classic PUSH&PULL rumor spreading process where nodes can contact k of their neighbors instead of a single one during both PUSH and PULL operations. We show that rumor spreading can be made faster at the cost of an increased amount of communication between the nodes. As a motivating example, consider the process on a complete graph of n nodes: while the standard PUSH&PULL protocol takes Θ(log n) rounds, we prove that our k-PUSH&PULL variant completes in Θ(log_{k} n) rounds, with high probability. We generalize this result in an expansion-sensitive way, as has been done for the classic PUSH&PULL protocol for different notions of expansion, e.g., conductance and vertex expansion. We consider small-set vertex expanders, graphs in which every sufficiently small subset of nodes has a large neighborhood, ensuring strong local connectivity. In particular, when the expansion parameter satisfies ϕ > 1, these graphs have a diameter of o(log n), as opposed to other standard notions of expansion. Since the graph’s diameter is a lower bound on the number of rounds required for rumor spreading, this makes small-set expanders particularly well-suited for fast information dissemination. We prove that k-PUSH&PULL takes O(log_{ϕ} n ⋅ log_{k} n) rounds in these expanders, with high probability. We complement this with a simple lower bound of Ω(log_{ϕ} n+ log_{k} n) rounds.
