Faster Approximate Linear Matroid Intersection

Authors: Tatsuya Terao

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 370, 20th Scandinavian Symposium on Algorithm Theory (SWAT 2026)

Abstract
We consider a fast approximation algorithm for the linear matroid intersection problem. In this problem, we are given two r × n matrices M₁ and M₂, and the objective is to find a largest set of columns that are linearly independent in both M₁ and M₂. We design a (1 - ε)-approximation algorithm with time complexity Õ_{ε}(nnz(M₁) + nnz(M₂) + r_{*}^{ω}), where nnz(M_i) denotes the number of nonzero entries in M_i for i = 1, 2, r_{*} denotes the maximum size of a common independent set, and ω < 2.372 denotes the matrix multiplication exponent. Our approximation algorithm is faster than the exact algorithm by Harvey [FOCS'06 & SICOMP'09] and Cheung-Kwok-Lau [STOC'12 & JACM'13], which runs in Õ(nnz(M₁) + nnz(M₂) + n r_{*}^{ω - 1}) time. We also develop a fast (1 - ε)-approximation algorithm for the weighted version of the linear matroid intersection problem. In fact, we design a (1 - ε)-approximation algorithm for weighted linear matroid intersection with time complexity Õ_{ε}(nnz(M₁) + nnz(M₂) + r_{*}^{ω}). Our algorithm improves upon the (1 - ε)-approximation algorithm by Huang-Kakimura-Kamiyama [SODA'16 & Math. Program.'19], which runs in Õ_{ε}(nnz(M₁) + nnz(M₂) + nr_{*}^{ω - 1}) time. To obtain these results, we combine Quanrud’s adaptive sparsification framework [ICALP'24] with a simple yet effective method for efficiently checking whether a given vector lies in the linear span of a subset of vectors, which is of independent interest.

Computing the Skyscraper Invariant

Authors: Marc Fersztand and Jan Jendrysiak

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

Abstract
We develop the first algorithms for computing the Skyscraper Invariant [FJNT24]. This is a filtration of the classical rank invariant for multiparameter persistence modules defined by the Harder-Narasimhan filtrations along every central charge supported at a single parameter value. Cheng’s algorithm [Cheng24] can be used to compute HN filtrations of arbitrary acyclic quiver representations in polynomial time in the total dimension, but in practice, the large dimension of persistence modules makes this direct approach infeasible. We show that by exploiting the additivity of the HN filtration and the special central charges, one can get away with a brute-force approach. For d-parameter modules, this produces an FPT ε-approximate algorithm with runtime dominated by 𝒪(1/ε^d ⋅ T_dec), where T_dec is the time for decomposition, which we compute with aida [DJK25]. We show that the wall-and-chamber structure of the module can be computed via lower envelopes of degree d - 1 polynomials. This allows for an exact computation of the Skyscraper Invariant roughly in 𝒪(n^d ⋅ T_dec) time for n the size of the presentation and enables a fast hybrid algorithm. For 2-parameter modules, we have implemented not only our algorithms but also, for the first time, Cheng’s algorithm. We compare all algorithms and, as a proof of concept for data analysis, compute a filtered version of the Multiparameter Landscape for biomedical data.

Fully Dynamic Spectral Sparsification for Directed Hypergraphs

Authors: Sebastian Forster, Gramoz Goranci, and Ali Momeni

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

Abstract
There has been a surge of interest in spectral hypergraph sparsification, a natural generalization of spectral sparsification for graphs. In this paper, we present a simple fully dynamic algorithm for maintaining spectral hypergraph sparsifiers of directed hypergraphs. Our algorithm achieves a near-optimal size of O(n² / ε ² log ⁷ m) and amortized update time of O(r² log ³ m), where n is the number of vertices, and m and r respectively upper bound the number of hyperedges and the rank of the hypergraph at any time. We also extend our approach to the parallel batch-dynamic setting, where a batch of any k hyperedge insertions or deletions can be processed with O(kr² log ³ m) amortized work and O(log ² m) depth. This constitutes the first spectral-based sparsification algorithm in this setting.

On the Spectral Expansion of Monotone Subsets of the Hypercube

Authors: Yumou Fei and Renato Ferreira Pinto Jr.

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

Abstract
We study the spectral gap of subgraphs of the hypercube induced by monotone subsets of vertices. For a monotone subset A ⊆ {0,1}ⁿ of density μ(A), the previous best lower bound on the spectral gap, due to Cohen [Cohen, 2016], was γ ≳ μ(A)/n², improving upon the earlier bound γ ≳ μ(A)²/n² established by Ding and Mossel [Ding and Mossel, 2014]. In this paper, we prove the optimal lower bound γ ≳ μ(A)/n. As a corollary, we improve the mixing time upper bound of the random walk on constant-density monotone sets from O(n³), as shown by Ding and Mossel, to O(n²). Along the way, we develop two new inequalities that may be of independent interest: (1) a directed L²-Poincaré inequality on the hypercube, and (2) an "approximate" FKG inequality for monotone sets.

A Theory of Spectral CSP Sparsification

Authors: Sanjeev Khanna, Aaron Putterman, and Madhu Sudan

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 334, 52nd International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2025)

Abstract
We initiate the study of spectral sparsification for instances of Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs). In particular, we introduce a notion of the spectral energy of a fractional assignment for a Boolean CSP instance, and define a spectral sparsifier as a weighted subset of constraints that approximately preserves this energy for all fractional assignments. Our definition not only strengthens the combinatorial notion of a CSP sparsifier but also extends well-studied concepts such as spectral sparsifiers for graphs and hypergraphs. Recent work by Khanna, Putterman, and Sudan [SODA 2024] demonstrated near-linear sized combinatorial sparsifiers for a broad class of CSPs, which they term field-affine CSPs. Our main result is a polynomial-time algorithm that constructs a spectral CSP sparsifier of near-quadratic size for all field-affine CSPs. This class of CSPs includes graph (and hypergraph) cuts, XORs, and more generally, any predicate which can be written as P(x₁, … x_r) = 𝟏[∑ a_i x_i ≠ b mod p]. Based on our notion of the spectral energy of a fractional assignment, we also define an analog of the second eigenvalue of a CSP instance. We then show an extension of Cheeger’s inequality for all even-arity XOR CSPs, showing that this second eigenvalue loosely captures the "expansion" of the underlying CSP. This extension specializes to the case of Cheeger’s inequality when all constraints are even XORs and thus gives a new generalization of this powerful inequality which converts the combinatorial notion of expansion to an analytic property. Perhaps the most important effect of spectral sparsification is that it has led to certifiable sparsifiers for graphs and hypergraphs. This aspect remains open in our case even for XOR CSPs since the eigenvalues we describe in our Cheeger inequality are not known to be efficiently computable. Computing this efficiently, and/or finding other ways to certifiably sparsify CSPs are open questions emerging from our work. Another important open question is determining which classes of CSPs have near-linear size spectral sparsifiers.

Near-Optimal Hypergraph Sparsification in Insertion-Only and Bounded-Deletion Streams

Authors: Sanjeev Khanna, Aaron Putterman, and Madhu Sudan

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 334, 52nd International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2025)

Abstract
We study the problem of constructing hypergraph cut sparsifiers in the streaming model where a hypergraph on n vertices is revealed either via an arbitrary sequence of hyperedge insertions alone (insertion-only streaming model) or via an arbitrary sequence of hyperedge insertions and deletions (dynamic streaming model). For any ε ∈ (0,1), a (1 ± ε) hypergraph cut-sparsifier of a hypergraph H is a reweighted subgraph H' whose cut values approximate those of H to within a (1 ± ε) factor. Prior work shows that in the static setting, one can construct a (1 ± ε) hypergraph cut-sparsifier using Õ(nr/ε²) bits of space [Chen-Khanna-Nagda FOCS 2020], and in the setting of dynamic streams using Õ(nrlog m/ε²) bits of space [Khanna-Putterman-Sudan FOCS 2024]; here the Õ notation hides terms that are polylogarithmic in n, and we use m to denote the total number of hyperedges in the hypergraph. Up until now, the best known space complexity for insertion-only streams has been the same as that for the dynamic streams. This naturally poses the question of understanding the complexity of hypergraph sparsification in insertion-only streams. Perhaps surprisingly, in this work we show that in insertion-only streams, a (1 ± ε) cut-sparsifier can be computed in Õ(nr/ε²) bits of space, matching the complexity of the static setting. As a consequence, this also establishes an Ω(log m) factor separation between the space complexity of hypergraph cut sparsification in insertion-only streams and dynamic streams, as the latter is provably known to require Ω(nr log m) bits of space. To better explain this gap, we then show a more general result: namely, if the stream has at most k hyperedge deletions then Õ(n r log k/ε²) bits of space suffice for hypergraph cut sparsification. Thus the space complexity smoothly interpolates between the insertion-only regime (k = 0) and the fully dynamic regime (k = m). Our algorithmic results are driven by a key technical insight: once sufficiently many hyperedges have been inserted into the stream (relative to the number of allowed deletions), we can significantly reduce the underlying hypergraph by size by irrevocably contracting large subsets of vertices. Finally, we complement this result with an essentially matching lower bound of Ω(n r log(k/n)) bits, thus providing essentially a tight characterization of the space complexity for hypergraph cut-sparsification across a spectrum of streaming models.

Algorithmic Aspects of Semistability of Quiver Representations

Authors: Yuni Iwamasa, Taihei Oki, and Tasuku Soma

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 334, 52nd International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2025)

Abstract
We study the semistability of quiver representations from an algorithmic perspective. We present efficient algorithms for several fundamental computational problems on the semistability of quiver representations: deciding the semistability and σ-semistability, finding the maximizers of King’s criterion, and computing the Harder-Narasimhan filtration. We also investigate a class of polyhedral cones defined by the linear system in King’s criterion, which we refer to as King cones. For rank-one representations, we demonstrate that these King cones can be encoded by submodular flow polytopes, enabling us to decide the σ-semistability in strongly polynomial time. Our approach employs submodularity in quiver representations, which may be of independent interest.

On Maximizing Sums of Non-Monotone Submodular and Linear Functions

Authors: Benjamin Qi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 248, 33rd International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2022)

Abstract
We study the problem of Regularized Unconstrained Submodular Maximization (RegularizedUSM) as defined by [Bodek and Feldman '22]. In this problem, we are given query access to a non-negative submodular function f: 2^N → ℝ_{≥ 0} and a linear function 𝓁: 2^N → ℝ over the same ground set N, and the objective is to output a set T ⊆ N approximately maximizing the sum f(T)+𝓁(T). Specifically, an algorithm is said to provide an (α,β)-approximation for RegularizedUSM if it outputs a set T such that E[f(T)+𝓁(T)] ≥ max_{S ⊆ N}[α ⋅ f(S)+β⋅ 𝓁(S)]. We also study the setting where S and T are constrained to be independent in a given matroid, which we refer to as Regularized Constrained Submodular Maximization (RegularizedCSM). The special case of RegularizedCSM with monotone f has been extensively studied [Sviridenko et al. '17, Feldman '18, Harshaw et al. '19]. On the other hand, we are aware of only one prior work that studies RegularizedCSM with non-monotone f [Lu et al. '21], and that work constrains 𝓁 to be non-positive. In this work, we provide improved (α,β)-approximation algorithms for both {RegularizedUSM} and {RegularizedCSM} with non-monotone f. In particular, we are the first to provide nontrivial (α,β)-approximations for RegularizedCSM where the sign of 𝓁 is unconstrained, and the α we obtain for RegularizedUSM improves over [Bodek and Feldman '22] for all β ∈ (0,1). In addition to approximation algorithms, we provide improved inapproximability results for all of the aforementioned cases. In particular, we show that the α our algorithm obtains for {RegularizedCSM} with unconstrained 𝓁 is essentially tight for β ≥ e/(e+1). Using similar ideas, we are also able to show 0.478-inapproximability for maximizing a submodular function where S and T are subject to a cardinality constraint, improving a 0.491-inapproximability result due to [Oveis Gharan and Vondrak '10].

On Solving (Non)commutative Weighted Edmonds' Problem

Authors: Taihei Oki

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 168, 47th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2020)

Abstract
In this paper, we consider computing the degree of the Dieudonné determinant of a polynomial matrix A = A_l + A_{l-1} s + ⋯ + A₀ s^l, where each A_d is a linear symbolic matrix, i.e., entries of A_d are affine functions in symbols x₁, …, x_m over a field K. This problem is a natural "weighted analog" of Edmonds' problem, which is to compute the rank of a linear symbolic matrix. Regarding x₁, …, x_m as commutative or noncommutative, two different versions of weighted and unweighted Edmonds' problems can be considered. Deterministic polynomial-time algorithms are unknown for commutative Edmonds' problem and have been proposed recently for noncommutative Edmonds' problem. The main contribution of this paper is to establish a deterministic polynomial-time reduction from (non)commutative weighted Edmonds' problem to unweighed Edmonds' problem. Our reduction makes use of the discrete Legendre conjugacy between the integer sequences of the maximum degree of minors of A and the rank of linear symbolic matrices obtained from the coefficient matrices of A. Combined with algorithms for noncommutative Edmonds' problem, our reduction yields the first deterministic polynomial-time algorithm for noncommutative weighted Edmonds' problem with polynomial bit-length bounds. We also give a reduction of the degree computation of quasideterminants and its application to the degree computation of noncommutative rational functions.

A New Approximation Guarantee for Monotone Submodular Function Maximization via Discrete Convexity

Authors: Tasuku Soma and Yuichi Yoshida

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 107, 45th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2018)

Abstract
In monotone submodular function maximization, approximation guarantees based on the curvature of the objective function have been extensively studied in the literature. However, the notion of curvature is often pessimistic, and we rarely obtain improved approximation guarantees, even for very simple objective functions. In this paper, we provide a novel approximation guarantee by extracting an M^{natural}-concave function h:2^E -> R_+, a notion in discrete convex analysis, from the objective function f:2^E -> R_+. We introduce a novel notion called the M^{natural}-concave curvature of a given set function f, which measures how much f deviates from an M^{natural}-concave function, and show that we can obtain a (1-gamma/e-epsilon)-approximation to the problem of maximizing f under a cardinality constraint in polynomial time, where gamma is the value of the M^{natural}-concave curvature and epsilon > 0 is an arbitrary constant. Then, we show that we can obtain nontrivial approximation guarantees for various problems by applying the proposed algorithm.
