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.

Online Balanced Allocation of Dynamic Components

Authors: Rajmohan Rajaraman and Omer Wasim

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


Abstract
We introduce Online Balanced Allocation of Dynamic Components (OBADC), a problem motivated by the practical challenge of dynamic resource allocation for large-scale distributed applications. In OBADC, we need to allocate a dynamic set of at most k𝓁 vertices (representing processes) in 𝓁 > 0 clusters. We consider an over-provisioned setup in which each cluster can hold at most k(1+ε) vertices, for an arbitrary constant ε > 0. The communication requirements among the vertices are modeled by the notion of a dynamically changing component, which is a subset of vertices that need to be co-located in the same cluster. At each time t, a request r_t of one of the following types arrives: 1) insertion of a vertex v forming a singleton component v at unit cost. 2) merge of (u,v) requiring that the components containing u and v be merged and co-located thereafter. 3) deletion of an existing vertex v at zero cost. Before serving any request, an algorithm can migrate vertices from one cluster to another, at a unit migration cost per vertex. We seek an online algorithm to minimize the total migration cost incurred for an arbitrary request sequence σ = (r_t)_{t > 0}, while simultaneously minimizing the number of clusters utilized. We analyze competitiveness with respect to an optimal clairvoyant offline algorithm with identical (over-provisioned) capacity constraints. We give an O(log k)-competitive algorithm for OBADC, and a matching lower-bound. The number of clusters utilized by our algorithm is always within a (2+ε) factor of the minimum. Furthermore, in a resource augmented setting where the optimal offline algorithm is constrained to capacity k per cluster, our algorithm obtains O(log k) competitiveness and utilizes a number of clusters within (1+ε) factor of the minimum. We also consider OBADC in the context of machine-learned predictions, where for each newly inserted vertex v at time t: i) with probability η > 0, the set of vertices (that exist at time t) in the component of v is revealed and, ii) with probability 1-η, no information is revealed. For OBADC with predictions, we give a O(1)-consistent and O(min(log 1/(η), log k))-robust algorithm.

Quantum Network Coding

Authors: Masahito Hayashi, Kazuo Iwama, Harumichi Nishimura, Rudy Raymond, and Shigeru Yamashita

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6111, Complexity of Boolean Functions (2006)


Abstract
Since quantum information is continuous, its handling is sometimes surprisingly harder than the classical counterpart. A typical example is cloning; making a copy of digital information is straightforward but it is not possible exactly for quantum information. The question in this paper is whether or not {em quantum} network coding is possible. Its classical counterpart is another good example to show that digital information flow can be done much more efficiently than conventional (say, liquid) flow. Our answer to the question is similar to the case of cloning, namely, it is shown that quantum network coding is possible if approximation is allowed, by using a simple network model called Butterfly. In this network, there are two flow paths, $s_1$ to $t_1$ and $s_2$ to $t_2$, which shares a single bottleneck channel of capacity one. In the classical case, we can send two bits simultaneously, one for each path, in spite of the bottleneck. Our results for quantum network coding include: (i) We can send any quantum state $|psi_1 angle$ from $s_1$ to $t_1$ and $|psi_2 angle$ from $s_2$ to $t_2$ simultaneously with a fidelity strictly greater than $1/2$. (ii) If one of $|psi_1 angle$ and $|psi_2 angle$ is classical, then the fidelity can be improved to $2/3$. (iii) Similar improvement is also possible if $|psi_1 angle$ and $|psi_2 angle$ are restricted to only a finite number of (previously known) states. (iv) Several impossibility results including the general upper bound of the fidelity are also given.
