Abstract
The Subset Sum Ratio problem (SSR) asks, given a multiset A of positive integers, to find two disjoint subsets of A such that the largest-to-smallest ratio of their sums is minimized. In this paper we study the k-version of SSR, namely k-Subset Sum Ratio (k-SSR), which asks to minimize the largest-to-smallest ratio of sums of k disjoint subsets of A. We develop an approximation scheme for k-SSR running in O(n^{2k}/ε^{k-1}) time, where n = |A| and ε is the error parameter. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first FPTAS for k-SSR for fixed k > 2. We also study the k-way Number Partitioning Ratio (k-PART) problem, which differs from k-SSR in that the k subsets must constitute a partition of A; this problem in fact corresponds to the objective of minimizing the largest-to-smallest sum ratio in the family of Multiway Number Partitioning problems. We present a more involved FPTAS for k-PART, also achieving O(n^{2k}/ε^{k-1}) time complexity. Notably, k-PART is also equivalent to the Minimum Envy-Ratio problem with identical valuation functions, which has been studied in the context of fair division of indivisible goods. Thus, for the case of identical valuations, our FPTAS represents a significant improvement over the O(n^{4k²+1}/ε^{2k²}) bound obtained by Nguyen and Rothe’s FPTAS [Trung Thanh Nguyen and Jörg Rothe, 2014] for Minimum Envy-Ratio with general additive valuations. Lastly, we propose a second FPTAS for k-SSR, which employs carefully designed calls to the first one; the new scheme has a time complexity of Õ(n/ε^{3k-1}), thus being much faster when n≫ 1/ ε.

Weight Reduction in Distributed Protocols: New Algorithms and Analysis

Authors: Anatoliy Zinovyev

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

Abstract
We study the problem of minimizing the total weight of (potentially many) participants of a distributed protocol, a necessary step when the original values are large but the scheme to be deployed scales poorly with the weights. We assume that α fraction of the original weights can be corrupted and we must output new weights with at most β adversarial fraction, for α < β. This problem can be viewed from the prism of electing a small committee that does the heavy work, a powerful tool for making distributed protocols scalable. We solve the variant that requires giving parties potentially multiple seats in the committee and counting each seat towards the cost of the solution. Moreover, we focus on the "deterministic" version of the problem where the computed committee must be secure for any subset of parties that can be corrupted by the adversary; such a committee can be smaller than a randomly sampled one in some cases and is useful when security against adaptive corruptions is desired but parties in the sub-protocol speak multiple times. Presented are new algorithms for the problem as well as analysis of prior work. We give two variants of the algorithm Swiper (PODC 2024), one that significantly improves the running time without sacrificing the quality of the output and the other improving the output for a reasonable increase in the running time. We prove, however, that all known algorithms, including our two variants of Swiper, have worst case approximation ratio Ω(n). To counter that, we give the first polynomial time algorithm with approximation factor n / log² n and also the first sub-exponential time exact algorithm, practical for some real-world inputs. Of theoretical interest is another polytime algorithm that we present, based on linear programming, whose output is no worse than an optimal solution to the problem with slightly different parameters. We implemented and tested previous and new algorithms, comparing them on the stake distributions of popular proof-of-stake blockchains, and found that our second variant of Swiper computes solutions extremely close to the optimal, confirmed by our exact algorithm.

Towards Optimal Distributed Edge Coloring with Fewer Colors

Authors: Manuel Jakob, Yannic Maus, and Florian Schager

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

Abstract
There is a huge difference in techniques and runtimes of distributed algorithms for problems that can be solved by a sequential greedy algorithm and those that cannot. A prime example of this contrast appears in the edge coloring problem: while (2Δ-1)-edge coloring - where Δ is the maximum degree - can be solved in 𝒪(log^{∗}(n)) rounds on constant-degree graphs, the seemingly minor reduction to (2Δ-2) colors leads to an Ω(log n) lower bound [Chang, He, Li, Pettie & Uitto, SODA'18]. Understanding this sharp divide between very local problems and inherently more global ones remains a central open question in distributed computing and it is a core focus of this paper. As our main contribution we design a deterministic distributed 𝒪(log n)-round reduction from the (2Δ-2)-edge coloring problem to the much easier (2Δ-1)-edge coloring problem. This reduction is optimal, as the (2Δ-2)-edge coloring problem admits an Ω(log n) lower bound that even holds on the class of constant-degree graphs, whereas the 2Δ-1-edge coloring problem can be solved in 𝒪(log^{∗}n) rounds. By plugging in the (2Δ-1)-edge coloring algorithms from [Balliu, Brandt, Kuhn & Olivetti, PODC'22] running in 𝒪(log^{12}Δ + log^{∗} n) rounds, we obtain an optimal runtime of 𝒪(log n) rounds as long as Δ = 2^{𝒪(log^{1/12} n)}. Previously, such an optimal algorithm was only known for the class of constant-degree graphs [Brandt, Maus, Narayanan, Schager & Uitto, SODA'25]. Furthermore, on general graphs our reduction improves the runtime from 𝒪̃(log³ n) to 𝒪̃(log^{5/3} n). In addition, we also obtain an optimal 𝒪(log log n)-round randomized reduction of (2Δ - 2)-edge coloring to (2Δ - 1)-edge coloring. This leads to a 𝒪̃(log^{5/3} log n)-round (2Δ-2)-edge coloring algorithm, which beats the (very recent) previous state-of-the-art taking 𝒪̃(log^{8/3}log n) rounds from [Bourreau, Brandt & Nolin, STOC'25]. Lastly, we obtain an 𝒪(log_Δ n)-round reduction from the (2Δ-1)-edge coloring, albeit to the somewhat harder maximal independent set (MIS) problem.

Distributed Computation with Local Advice

Authors: Alkida Balliu, Sebastian Brandt, Fabian Kuhn, Krzysztof Nowicki, Dennis Olivetti, Eva Rotenberg, and Jukka Suomela

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

Abstract
Algorithms with advice have received ample attention in the distributed and online settings, and they have recently proven useful also in dynamic settings. In this work we study local computation with advice: the goal is to solve a graph problem Π with a distributed algorithm in T(Δ) communication rounds, for some function T that only depends on the maximum degree Δ of the graph, and the key question is how many bits of advice per node are needed. Some of our results regard Locally Checkable Labeling problems (LCLs), which is an important family of problems that includes various coloring and orientation problems on finite-degree graphs. These are constraint-satisfaction graph problems that can be defined with a finite set of valid input/output-labeled neighborhoods. Our main results are: 1) Any locally checkable labeling problem can be solved with only 1 bit of advice per node in graphs with sub-exponential growth (the number of nodes within radius r is sub-exponential in r; for example, grids are such graphs). Moreover, we can make the set of nodes that carry advice bits arbitrarily sparse. As a corollary, any locally checkable labeling problem admits a locally checkable proof with 1 bit per node in graphs with sub-exponential growth. 2) The assumption of sub-exponential growth is complemented by a conditional lower bound: assuming the Exponential-Time Hypothesis, there are locally checkable labeling problems that cannot be solved in general with any constant number of bits per node. 3) In any graph we can find an almost-balanced orientation (indegrees and outdegrees differ by at most one) with 1 bit of advice per node, and again we can make the advice arbitrarily sparse. As a corollary, we can also compress an arbitrary subset of edges so that a node of degree d stores only d/2 + 2 bits, and we can decompress it locally, in T(Δ) rounds. 4) In any graph of maximum degree Δ, we can find a Δ-coloring (if it exists) with 1 bit of advice per node, and again, we can make the advice arbitrarily sparse. 5) In any 3-colorable graph, we can find a 3-coloring with 1 bit of advice per node. As a corollary, in bounded-degree graphs there is a locally checkable proof that certifies 3-colorability with 1 bit of advice per node, while prior work shows that this is not possible with a proof labeling scheme (PLS), which is a more restricted setting where the verifier can only see up to distance 1. Our work shows that for many problems the key threshold is not whether we can achieve 1 bit of advice per node, but whether we can make the advice arbitrarily sparse. To formalize this idea, we develop a general framework of composable schemas that enables us to build algorithms for local computation with advice in a modular fashion: once we have (1) a schema for solving Π₁ and (2) a schema for solving Π₂ assuming an oracle for Π₁, we can also compose them and obtain (3) a schema that solves Π₂ without the oracle. It turns out that many natural problems admit composable schemas, all of them can be solved with only 1 bit of advice, and we can make the advice arbitrarily sparse.

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.

The Planted Orthogonal Vectors Problem

Authors: David Kühnemann, Adam Polak, and Alon Rosen

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

Abstract
In the k-Orthogonal Vectors (k-OV) problem we are given k sets, each containing n binary vectors of dimension d = n^o(1), and our goal is to pick one vector from each set so that at each coordinate at least one vector has a zero. It is a central problem in fine-grained complexity, conjectured to require n^{k-o(1)} time in the worst case. We propose a way to plant a solution among vectors with i.i.d. p-biased entries, for appropriately chosen p, so that the planted solution is the unique one. Our conjecture is that the resulting k-OV instances still require time n^{k-o(1)} to solve, on average. Our planted distribution has the property that any subset of strictly less than k vectors has the same marginal distribution as in the model distribution, consisting of i.i.d. p-biased random vectors. We use this property to give average-case search-to-decision reductions for k-OV.

A Unified FPT Framework for Crossing Number Problems

Authors: Éric Colin de Verdière and Petr Hliněný

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

Abstract
The basic (and traditional) crossing number problem is to determine the minimum number of crossings in a topological drawing of an input graph in the plane. We develop a unified framework that smoothly captures many generalized crossing number problems, and that yields fixed-parameter tractable (FPT) algorithms for them not only in the plane but also on surfaces. Our framework takes the following form. We fix a surface S, an integer r, and a map κ from the set of topological drawings of graphs in S to ℤ_+ ∪ {∞}, satisfying some natural monotonicity conditions, but essentially describing the allowed drawings and how we want to count the crossings in them. Then deciding whether an input graph G has an allowed drawing D on S with κ(D) ≤ r can be done in time quadratic in the size of G (and exponential in other parameters). More generally, we may take as input an edge-colored graph, and distinguish crossings by the colors of the involved edges; and we may allow to perform a bounded number of edge removals and vertex splits to G before drawing it. The proof is a reduction to the embeddability of a graph on a two-dimensional simplicial complex. This framework implies, in a unified way, quadratic FPT algorithms for many topological crossing number variants established in the graph drawing community. Some of these variants already had previously published FPT algorithms, mostly relying on Courcelle’s metatheorem, but for many of those, we obtain an algorithm with a better runtime. Moreover, our framework extends, at no cost, to these crossing number variants in any fixed surface.

Animating MRBNFs: Truly Modular Binding-Aware Datatypes in Isabelle/HOL

Authors: Jan van Brügge, Andrei Popescu, and Dmitriy Traytel

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 352, 16th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2025)

Abstract
Nominal Isabelle provides powerful tools for meta-theoretic reasoning about syntax of logics or programming languages, in which variables are bound. It has been instrumental to major verification successes, such as Gödel’s incompleteness theorems. However, the existing tooling is not compositional. In particular, it does not support nested recursion, linear binding patterns, or infinitely branching syntax. These limitations are fundamental in the way nominal datatypes and functions on them are constructed within Nominal Isabelle. Taking advantage of recent theoretical advancements that overcome these limitations through a modular approach using the concept of map-restricted bounded natural functor (MRBNF), we develop and implement a new definitional package for binding-aware datatypes in Isabelle/HOL, called MrBNF. We describe the journey from the user specification to the end-product types, constants and theorems the tool generates. We validate MrBNF in two formalization case studies that so far were out of reach of nominal approaches: (1) Mazza’s isomorphism between the finitary and the infinitary affine λ-calculus, and (2) the POPLmark 2B challenge, which involves non-free binders for linear pattern matching.

Formalizing Colimits in 𝒞at

Authors: Mario Carneiro and Emily Riehl

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 352, 16th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2025)

Abstract
Certain results involving "higher structures" are not currently accessible to computer formalization because the prerequisite ∞-category theory has not been formalized. To support future work on formalizing ∞-category theory in Lean’s mathematics library, we formalize some fundamental constructions involving the 1-category of categories. Specifically, we construct the left adjoint to the nerve embedding of categories into simplicial sets, defining the homotopy category functor. We prove further that this adjunction is reflective, which allows us to conclude that 𝒞at has colimits. To our knowledge this is the first formalized proof that the nerve functor is a fully faithful right adjoint and that the category of categories is cocomplete.

Improved Lower Bounds on Multiflow-Multicut Gaps

Authors: Sina Kalantarzadeh and Nikhil Kumar

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

Abstract
Given a set of source-sink pairs, the maximum multiflow problem asks for the maximum total amount of flow that can be feasibly routed between them. The minimum multicut, a dual problem to multiflow, seeks the minimum-cost set of edges whose removal disconnects all the source-sink pairs. It is easy to see that the value of the minimum multicut is at least that of the maximum multiflow, and their ratio is called the multiflow-multicut gap. The classical max-flow min-cut theorem states that when there is only one source-sink pair, the gap is exactly one. However, in general, it is well known that this gap can be arbitrarily large. In this paper, we study this gap for classes of planar graphs and establish improved lower bound results. In particular, we show that this gap is at least 20/9 for the class of planar graphs, improving upon the decades-old lower bound of 2. More importantly, we develop new techniques for proving such a lower bound, which may be useful in other settings as well.

A Randomized Rounding Approach for DAG Edge Deletion

Authors: Sina Kalantarzadeh, Nathan Klein, and Victor Reis

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

Abstract
In the DAG Edge Deletion problem, we are given an edge-weighted directed acyclic graph and a parameter k, and the goal is to delete the minimum weight set of edges so that the resulting graph has no paths of length k. This problem, which has applications to scheduling, was introduced in 2015 by Kenkre, Pandit, Purohit, and Saket. They gave a k-approximation and showed that it is UGC-Hard to approximate better than ⌊0.5k⌋ for any constant k ≥ 4 using a work of Svensson from 2012. The approximation ratio was improved to 2/3(k+1) by Klein and Wexler in 2016. In this work, we introduce a randomized rounding framework based on distributions over vertex labels in [0,1]. The most natural distribution is to sample labels independently from the uniform distribution over [0,1]. We show this leads to a (2-√2)(k+1) ≈ 0.585(k+1)-approximation. By using a modified (but still independent) label distribution, we obtain a 0.549(k+1)-approximation for the problem, as well as show that no independent distribution over labels can improve our analysis to below 0.542(k+1). Finally, we show a 0.5(k+1)-approximation for bipartite graphs and for instances with structured LP solutions. Whether this ratio can be obtained in general is open.

Dual Charging for Half-Integral TSP

Authors: Nathan Klein and Mehrshad Taziki

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

Abstract
In this extended abstract, we show that the max entropy algorithm is a randomized 1.49776 approximation for half-integral TSP, improving upon the previous known bound of 1.49993 from Karlin et al. This also improves upon the best-known approximation for half-integral TSP due to Gupta et al. Our improvement results from using the dual, instead of the primal, to analyze the expected cost of the matching. We believe this method of analysis could lead to a simpler proof that max entropy is a better-than-3/2 approximation in the general case.

Computational Geometry with Probabilistically Noisy Primitive Operations

Authors: David Eppstein, Michael T. Goodrich, and Vinesh Sridhar

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

Abstract
Much prior work has been done on designing computational geometry algorithms that handle input degeneracies, data imprecision, and arithmetic round-off errors. We take a new approach, inspired by the noisy sorting literature, and study computational geometry algorithms subject to noisy Boolean primitive operations in which, e.g., the comparison "is point q above line 𝓁?" returns the wrong answer with some fixed probability. We propose a novel technique called path-guided pushdown random walks that generalizes the results of noisy sorting. We apply this technique to solve point-location, plane-sweep, convex hulls in 2D and 3D, and Delaunay triangulations for noisy primitives in optimal time with high probability.

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.

Improved Approximation Algorithms for Capacitated Vehicle Routing with Fixed Capacity

Authors: Jingyang Zhao and Mingyu Xiao

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

Abstract
The Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem (CVRP) is one of the most extensively studied problems in combinatorial optimization. Based on customer demand, we distinguish three variants of CVRP: unit-demand, splittable, and unsplittable. In this paper, we consider k-CVRP in general metrics and on general graphs, where k is the vehicle capacity. All three versions are APX-hard for any fixed k ≥ 3. Assume that the approximation ratio of metric TSP is 3/2. We present a (5/2 - Θ(√{1/k}))-approximation algorithm for the splittable and unit-demand cases, and a (5/2 + ln 2 - Θ(√{1/k}))-approximation algorithm for the unsplittable case. Our approximation ratio is better than the previous results when k is less than a sufficiently large value, approximately 1.7 x 10⁷. For small values of k, we design independent and elegant algorithms with further improvements. For the splittable and unit-demand cases, we improve the approximation ratio from 1.792 to 1.500 for k = 3, and from 1.750 to 1.500 for k = 4. For the unsplittable case, we improve the approximation ratio from 1.792 to 1.500 for k = 3, from 2.051 to 1.750 for k = 4, and from 2.249 to 2.157 for k = 5. The approximation ratio for k = 3 surprisingly achieves the same value as in the splittable case. Our techniques, such as EX-ITP - an extension of the classic ITP method, have the potential to improve algorithms for other routing problems as well.
