Optimal Communication Complexity of Chained Index

Authors: Janani Sundaresan

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 325, 16th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2025)


Abstract
We study the chain communication problem introduced by Cormode et al. [ICALP 2019]. For k ≥ 1, in the chain_{n,k} problem, there are k string and index pairs (X_i, σ_i) for i ∈ [k] such that the value at position σ_i in string X_i is the same bit for all k pairs. The input is shared between k+1 players as follows. Player 1 has the first string X₁ ∈ {0,1}ⁿ, player 2 has the first index σ₁ ∈ [n] and the second string X₂ ∈ {0,1}ⁿ, player 3 has the second index σ₂ ∈ [n] along with the third string X₃ ∈ {0,1}ⁿ, and so on. Player k+1 has the last index σ_k ∈ [n]. The communication is one way from each player to the next, starting from player 1 to player 2, then from player 2 to player 3 and so on. Player k+1, after receiving the message from player k, has to output a single bit which is the value at position σ_i in X_i for any i ∈ [k]. It is a generalization of the well-studied index problem, which is equivalent to chain_{n, 2}. Cormode et al. proved that the chain_{n,k} problem requires Ω(n/k²) communication, and they used it to prove streaming lower bounds for the approximation of maximum independent sets. Subsequently, Feldman et al. [STOC 2020] used it to prove lower bounds for streaming submodular maximization. However, it is not known whether the Ω(n/k²) lower bound used in these works is optimal for the problem, and in fact, it was conjectured by Cormode et al. that Ω(n) bits are necessary. We prove the optimal lower bound of Ω(n) for chain_{n,k} when k = o(n/log n) as our main result. This settles the open conjecture of Cormode et al., barring the range of k = Ω(n /log n). The main technique is a reduction to a non-standard index problem where the input to the players is such that the answer is biased away from uniform. This biased version of index is analyzed using tools from information theory. As a corollary, we get an improved lower bound for approximation of maximum independent set in vertex arrival streams via a reduction from chain directly.

The SDP Value of Random 2CSPs

Authors: Amulya Musipatla, Ryan O'Donnell, Tselil Schramm, and Xinyu Wu

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 229, 49th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2022)


Abstract
We consider a very wide class of models for sparse random Boolean 2CSPs; equivalently, degree-2 optimization problems over {±1}ⁿ. For each model ℳ, we identify the "high-probability value" s^*_ℳ of the natural SDP relaxation (equivalently, the quantum value). That is, for all ε > 0 we show that the SDP optimum of a random n-variable instance is (when normalized by n) in the range (s^*_ℳ-ε, s^*_ℳ+ε) with high probability. Our class of models includes non-regular CSPs, and ones where the SDP relaxation value is strictly smaller than the spectral relaxation value.

Noisy Boolean Hidden Matching with Applications

Authors: Michael Kapralov, Amulya Musipatla, Jakab Tardos, David P. Woodruff, and Samson Zhou

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 215, 13th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2022)


Abstract
The Boolean Hidden Matching (BHM) problem, introduced in a seminal paper of Gavinsky et al. [STOC'07], has played an important role in lower bounds for graph problems in the streaming model (e.g., subgraph counting, maximum matching, MAX-CUT, Schatten p-norm approximation). The BHM problem typically leads to Ω(√n) space lower bounds for constant factor approximations, with the reductions generating graphs that consist of connected components of constant size. The related Boolean Hidden Hypermatching (BHH) problem provides Ω(n^{1-1/t}) lower bounds for 1+O(1/t) approximation, for integers t ≥ 2. The corresponding reductions produce graphs with connected components of diameter about t, and essentially show that long range exploration is hard in the streaming model with an adversarial order of updates. In this paper we introduce a natural variant of the BHM problem, called noisy BHM (and its natural noisy BHH variant), that we use to obtain stronger than Ω(√n) lower bounds for approximating a number of the aforementioned problems in graph streams when the input graphs consist only of components of diameter bounded by a fixed constant. We next introduce and study the graph classification problem, where the task is to test whether the input graph is isomorphic to a given graph. As a first step, we use the noisy BHM problem to show that the problem of classifying whether an underlying graph is isomorphic to a complete binary tree in insertion-only streams requires Ω(n) space, which seems challenging to show using either BHM or BHH.
