Reforming an Unfair Allocation by Exchanging Goods

Authors: Sheung Man Yuen, Ayumi Igarashi, Naoyuki Kamiyama, and Warut Suksompong

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

Abstract
Fairly allocating indivisible goods is a frequently occurring task in everyday life. Given an initial allocation of the goods, we consider the problem of reforming it via a sequence of exchanges to attain fairness in the form of envy-freeness up to one good (EF1). We present a vast array of results on the complexity of determining whether it is possible to reach an EF1 allocation from the initial allocation and, if so, the minimum number of exchanges required. In particular, we uncover several distinctions based on the number of agents involved and their utility functions. Furthermore, we derive essentially tight bounds on the worst-case number of exchanges needed to achieve EF1.

The Price of Connectivity Augmentation on Planar Graphs

Authors: Hugo A. Akitaya, Justin Dallant, Erik D. Demaine, Michael Kaufmann, Linda Kleist, Frederick Stock, Csaba D. Tóth, and Torsten Ueckerdt

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 357, 33rd International Symposium on Graph Drawing and Network Visualization (GD 2025)

Abstract
Given two classes of graphs, 𝒢₁ ⊆ 𝒢₂, and a c-connected graph G ∈ 𝒢₁, we wish to augment G with a smallest cardinality set of new edges F to obtain a k-connected graph G' = (V,E∪ F) ∈ 𝒢₂. In general, this is the c → k connectivity augmentation problem. Previous research considered variants where 𝒢₁ = 𝒢₂ is the class of planar graphs, plane graphs, or planar straight-line graphs. In all three settings, we prove that the c → k augmentation problem is NP-complete when 2 ≤ c < k ≤ 5. However, the connectivity of the augmented graph G' is at most 5 if 𝒢₂ is limited to planar graphs. We initiate the study of the c → k connectivity augmentation problem for arbitrary k ∈ ℕ, where 𝒢₁ is the class of planar graphs, plane graphs, or planar straight-line graphs, and 𝒢₂ is a beyond-planar class of graphs: 𝓁-planar, 𝓁-plane topological, or 𝓁-plane geometric graphs. We obtain tight bounds on the tradeoffs between the desired connectivity k and the local crossing number 𝓁 of the augmented graph G'. We also show that our hardness results apply to this setting. The connectivity augmentation problem for triangulations is intimately related to edge flips; and the minimum augmentation problem to the flip distance between triangulations. We prove that it is NP-complete to find the minimum flip distance between a given triangulation and a 4-connected triangulation, settling an open problem posed in 2014, and present an EPTAS for this problem.

The 3-Decomposition Conjecture: A SAT-Based Approach with Specialized Propagators

Authors: Tianwei Zhang and Stefan Szeider

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 340, 31st International Conference on Principles and Practice of Constraint Programming (CP 2025)

Abstract
We investigate the 3-decomposition conjecture, which states that every connected cubic graph can be decomposed into a spanning tree, a collection of cycles, and a matching. Using a SAT-based approach enhanced with specialized propagators, we verify the conjecture for all relevant graphs up to 28 vertices. Our method extends the Satisfiability Modulo Symmetries (SMS) framework with specialized propagators that exploit theoretical properties of minimal counterexamples (counterexamples with the minimal number of vertices), enabling efficient pruning. We demonstrate that graphs containing certain substructures cannot be minimal counterexamples to the conjecture, allowing us to exclude these patterns during the search dynamically. Our experimental results quantify the impact of different propagator configurations and forbidden subgraph constraints on solving efficiency, showing significant performance improvements when leveraging these techniques. The approach scales effectively to graphs of 28 vertices. Our work illustrates how combining SAT solving with specialized constraint propagation techniques can successfully address challenging combinatorial problems in contemporary graph theory.

Rerouting Planar Curves and Disjoint Paths

Authors: Takehiro Ito, Yuni Iwamasa, Naonori Kakimura, Yusuke Kobayashi, Shun-ichi Maezawa, Yuta Nozaki, Yoshio Okamoto, and Kenta Ozeki

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 261, 50th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2023)

Abstract
In this paper, we consider a transformation of k disjoint paths in a graph. For a graph and a pair of k disjoint paths 𝒫 and 𝒬 connecting the same set of terminal pairs, we aim to determine whether 𝒫 can be transformed to 𝒬 by repeatedly replacing one path with another path so that the intermediates are also k disjoint paths. The problem is called Disjoint Paths Reconfiguration. We first show that Disjoint Paths Reconfiguration is PSPACE-complete even when k = 2. On the other hand, we prove that, when the graph is embedded on a plane and all paths in 𝒫 and 𝒬 connect the boundaries of two faces, Disjoint Paths Reconfiguration can be solved in polynomial time. The algorithm is based on a topological characterization for rerouting curves on a plane using the algebraic intersection number. We also consider a transformation of disjoint s-t paths as a variant. We show that the disjoint s-t paths reconfiguration problem in planar graphs can be determined in polynomial time, while the problem is PSPACE-complete in general.

Hardness of Finding Combinatorial Shortest Paths on Graph Associahedra

Authors: Takehiro Ito, Naonori Kakimura, Naoyuki Kamiyama, Yusuke Kobayashi, Shun-ichi Maezawa, Yuta Nozaki, and Yoshio Okamoto

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 261, 50th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2023)

Abstract
We prove that the computation of a combinatorial shortest path between two vertices of a graph associahedron, introduced by Carr and Devadoss, is NP-hard. This resolves an open problem raised by Cardinal. A graph associahedron is a generalization of the well-known associahedron. The associahedron is obtained as the graph associahedron of a path. It is a tantalizing and important open problem in theoretical computer science whether the computation of a combinatorial shortest path between two vertices of the associahedron can be done in polynomial time, which is identical to the computation of the flip distance between two triangulations of a convex polygon, and the rotation distance between two rooted binary trees. Our result shows that a certain generalized approach to tackling this open problem is not promising. As a corollary of our theorem, we prove that the computation of a combinatorial shortest path between two vertices of a polymatroid base polytope cannot be done in polynomial time unless P = NP. Since a combinatorial shortest path on the matroid base polytope can be computed in polynomial time, our result reveals an unexpected contrast between matroids and polymatroids.

Reconfiguration of Colorings in Triangulations of the Sphere

Authors: Takehiro Ito, Yuni Iwamasa, Yusuke Kobayashi, Shun-ichi Maezawa, Yuta Nozaki, Yoshio Okamoto, and Kenta Ozeki

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 258, 39th International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2023)

Abstract
In 1973, Fisk proved that any 4-coloring of a 3-colorable triangulation of the 2-sphere can be obtained from any 3-coloring by a sequence of Kempe-changes. On the other hand, in the case where we are only allowed to recolor a single vertex in each step, which is a special case of a Kempe-change, there exists a 4-coloring that cannot be obtained from any 3-coloring. In this paper, we present a linear-time checkable characterization of a 4-coloring of a 3-colorable triangulation of the 2-sphere that can be obtained from a 3-coloring by a sequence of recoloring operations at single vertices. In addition, we develop a quadratic-time algorithm to find such a recoloring sequence if it exists; our proof implies that we can always obtain a quadratic length recoloring sequence. We also present a linear-time checkable criterion for a 3-colorable triangulation of the 2-sphere that all 4-colorings can be obtained from a 3-coloring by such a sequence. Moreover, we consider a high-dimensional setting. As a natural generalization of our first result, we obtain a polynomial-time checkable characterization of a k-coloring of a (k-1)-colorable triangulation of the (k-2)-sphere that can be obtained from a (k-1)-coloring by a sequence of recoloring operations at single vertices and the corresponding algorithmic result. Furthermore, we show that the problem of deciding whether, for given two (k+1)-colorings of a (k-1)-colorable triangulation of the (k-2)-sphere, one can be obtained from the other by such a sequence is PSPACE-complete for any fixed k ≥ 4. Our results above can be rephrased as new results on the computational problems named k-Recoloring and Connectedness of k-Coloring Reconfiguration Graph, which are fundamental problems in the field of combinatorial reconfiguration.
