Toward an Earth-Independent System for EVA Mission Planning: Integrating Physical Models, Domain Knowledge, and Agentic RAG to Provide Explainable LLM-Based Decision Support

Authors: Kaisheng Li and Richard S. Whittle

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 130, Advancing Human-Computer Interaction for Space Exploration (SpaceCHI 2025)

Abstract
We propose a unified framework for an Earth‑independent AI system that provides explainable, context‑aware decision support for EVA mission planning by integrating six core components: a fine‑tuned EVA domain LLM, a retrieval‑augmented knowledge base, a short-term memory store, physical simulation models, an agentic orchestration layer, and a multimodal user interface. To ground our design, we analyze the current roles and substitution potential of the Mission Control Center - identifying which procedural and analytical functions can be automated onboard while preserving human oversight for experiential and strategic tasks. Building on this framework, we introduce RASAGE (Retrieval & Simulation Augmented Guidance Agent for Exploration), a proof‑of‑concept toolset that combines Microsoft Phi‑4‑mini‑instruct with a FAISS (Facebook AI Similarity Search)‑powered EVA knowledge base and custom A* path planning and hypogravity metabolic models to generate grounded, traceable EVA plans. We outline a staged validation strategy to evaluate improvements in route efficiency, metabolic prediction accuracy, anomaly response effectiveness, and crew trust under realistic communication delays. Our findings demonstrate the feasibility of replicating key Mission Control functions onboard, enhancing crew autonomy, reducing cognitive load, and improving safety for deep‑space exploration missions.

Sublinear Space Graph Algorithms in the Continual Release Model

Authors: Alessandro Epasto, Quanquan C. Liu, Tamalika Mukherjee, and Felix Zhou

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

Abstract
The graph continual release model of differential privacy seeks to produce differentially private solutions to graph problems under a stream of edge updates where new private solutions are released after each update. Thus far, previously known edge-differentially private algorithms for most graph problems including densest subgraph and matchings in the continual release setting only output real-value estimates (not vertex subset solutions) and do not use sublinear space. Instead, they rely on computing exact graph statistics on the input [Hendrik Fichtenberger et al., 2021; Shuang Song et al., 2018]. In this paper, we leverage sparsification to address the above shortcomings for edge-insertion streams. Our edge-differentially private algorithms use sublinear space with respect to the number of edges in the graph while some also achieve sublinear space in the number of vertices in the graph. In addition, for the densest subgraph problem, we also output edge-differentially private vertex subset solutions; no previous graph algorithms in the continual release model output such subsets. We make novel use of assorted sparsification techniques from the non-private streaming and static graph algorithms literature to achieve new results in the sublinear space, continual release setting. This includes algorithms for densest subgraph, maximum matching, as well as the first continual release k-core decomposition algorithm. We also develop a novel sparse level data structure for k-core decomposition that may be of independent interest. To complement our insertion-only algorithms, we conclude with polynomial additive error lower bounds for edge-privacy in the fully dynamic setting, where only logarithmic lower bounds were previously known.

In-Browser C++ Interpreter for Lightweight Intelligent Programming Learning Environments

Authors: Tomas Blažauskas, Arnoldas Rauba, Jakub Swacha, Raffaele Montella, and Rytis Maskeliunas

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 133, 6th International Computer Programming Education Conference (ICPEC 2025)

Abstract
The paper presents a browser native C++ interpreter integrated into an AI-assisted educational platform designed to enhance programming learning in formal education. The interpreter leverages Parsing Expression Grammars (PEG) to generate Abstract Syntax Trees (AST) and executes C++ code using a TypeScript-based runtime. The system supports key C++ features, including pointer arithmetic, function overloading, and namespace resolution, and emulates memory management via reference-counted JavaScript objects. Integrated within a web-based learning environment, it provides automated feedback, error explanations, and code quality evaluations. The evaluation involved 4582 students in three difficulty levels and feedback from 14 teachers. The results include high system usability scale (SUS) scores (avg. 83.5) and WBLT learning effectiveness scores (avg. 4.58/5). Interpreter performance testing in 65 cases averaged under 10 ms per task, confirming its practical applicability to school curricula. The system supports SCORM and PWA deployment, enabling LMS-independent usage. The work introduces a technical innovation in browser-based C++ execution and a scalable framework for LLM-enhanced programming pedagogy.

Parameterized Spanning Tree Congestion

Authors: Michael Lampis, Valia Mitsou, Edouard Nemery, Yota Otachi, Manolis Vasilakis, and Daniel Vaz

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

Abstract
In this paper we study the Spanning Tree Congestion problem, where we are given an undirected graph G = (V,E) and are asked to find a spanning tree T of minimum maximum congestion. Here, the congestion of an edge e ∈ T is the number of edges uv ∈ E such that the (unique) path from u to v in T traverses e. We consider this well-studied NP-hard problem from the point of view of (structural) parameterized complexity and obtain the following results: - We resolve a natural open problem by showing that Spanning Tree Congestion is not FPT parameterized by treewidth (under standard assumptions). More strongly, we present a generic reduction which applies to (almost) any parameter of the form "vertex-deletion distance to class 𝒞", thus obtaining W[1]-hardness for more restricted parameters, including tree-depth plus feedback vertex set, or incomparable to treewidth, such as twin cover. Via a slight tweak of the same reduction we also show that the problem is NP-complete on graphs of modular-width 4. - Even though it is known that Spanning Tree Congestion remains NP-hard on instances with only one vertex of unbounded degree, it is currently open whether the problem remains hard on bounded-degree graphs. We resolve this question by showing NP-hardness on graphs of maximum degree 8. - Complementing the problem’s W[1]-hardness for treewidth, we formulate an algorithm that runs in time roughly {(k+w)}^{𝒪(w)}, where k is the desired congestion and w the treewidth, improving a previous argument for parameter k+w that was based on Courcelle’s theorem. This explicit algorithm pays off in two ways: it allows us to obtain an FPT approximation scheme for parameter treewidth, that is, a (1+ε)-approximation running in time roughly {(w/ε)}^{𝒪(w)}; and it leads to an exact FPT algorithm for parameter clique-width+k via a Win/Win argument. - Finally, motivated by the problem’s hardness for most standard structural parameters, we present FPT algorithms for several more restricted cases, namely, for the parameters vertex-deletion distance to clique; vertex integrity; and feedback edge set, in the latter case also achieving a single-exponential running time dependence on the parameter.

Negated String Containment Is Decidable

Authors: Vojtěch Havlena, Michal Hečko, Lukáš Holík, and Ondřej Lengál

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

Abstract
We provide a positive answer to a long-standing open question of the decidability of the not-contains string predicate. Not-contains is practically relevant, for instance in symbolic execution of string manipulating programs. Particularly, we show that the predicate ¬Contains(x₁ … x_n, y₁ … y_m), where x₁ … x_n and y₁ … y_m are sequences of string variables constrained by regular languages, is decidable. Decidability of a not-contains predicate combined with chain-free word equations and regular membership constraints follows.

Conditional Lower Bounds for String Matching in Labelled Graphs

Authors: Massimo Equi

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 132, From Strings to Graphs, and Back Again: A Festschrift for Roberto Grossi's 60th Birthday (2025)

Abstract
The problem of String Matching in Labelled Graphs (SMLG) is one possible generalization of the classic problem of finding a string inside another of greater length. In its most general form, SMLG asks to find a match for a string into a graph, which can be directed or undirected. As for string matching, many different variations are possible. For example, the match could be exact or approximate, and the match could lie on a path or a walk. Some of these variations easily fall into the NP-hard realm, while other variants are solvable in polynomial time. For the latter ones, fine-grained complexity has been a game changer in proving quadratic conditional lower bounds, allowing to finally close the gap with those upper bounds that remained unmatched for almost two decades. If the match is allowed to be approximate, SMLG enjoys the same conditional quadratic lower bounds shown for example for edit distance (Backurs and Indyk, STOC '15). The case that really requires ad hoc conditional lower bounds is the one of finding an exact match that lies on a walk. In this work, we focus on explaining various conditional lower bounds for this version of SMLG, with the goal of giving an overall perspective that could help understand which aspects of the problem make it quadratic. We will introduce the reader to the field of fine-grained complexity and show how it can successfully provide the exact type of lower bounds needed for polynomial problems such as SMLG.

Enumerating All Boolean Matches

Authors: Alexander Nadel and Yogev Shalmon

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 341, 28th International Conference on Theory and Applications of Satisfiability Testing (SAT 2025)

Abstract
Boolean matching, a fundamental problem in circuit design, determines whether two Boolean circuits are equivalent under input/output permutations and negations. While most works focus on finding a single match or proving its absence, the problem of enumerating all matches remains largely unexplored, with BooM being a notable exception. Motivated by timing challenges in Intel’s library mapping flow, we introduce EBat - an open-source tool for enumerating all matches between single-output circuits. Built from scratch, EBat reuses BooM’s SAT encoding and introduces novel high-level algorithms and performance-critical subroutines to efficiently identify and block multiple mismatches and matches simultaneously. Experiments demonstrate that EBat substantially outperforms BooM’s baseline algorithm, solving 3 to 4 times more benchmarks within a given time limit. EBat has been productized as part of Intel’s library mapping flow, effectively addressing the timing challenges.

Faster & Deterministic FPT Algorithm for Worst-Case Tensor Decomposition

Authors: Vishwas Bhargava and Devansh Shringi

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

Abstract
We present a deterministic 2^{k^{𝒪(1)}} poly(n,d) time algorithm for decomposing d-dimensional, width-n tensors of rank at most k over ℝ and ℂ. This improves upon the previous randomized algorithm of Peleg, Shpilka, and Volk (ITCS '24) that takes 2^{k^{k^{𝒪(k)}}} poly(n,d) time and the deterministic n^k^k time algorithms of Bhargava, Saraf, and Volkovich (STOC '21). Our work resolves an open question asked by Peleg, Shpilka, and Volk (ITCS '24) on whether a deterministic Fixed Parameter Tractable (FPT) algorithm exists for worst-case tensor decomposition. We also make substantial progress on the fundamental problem of how the tractability of tensor decomposition varies as the tensor rank increases. Our result implies that we can achieve deterministic polynomial-time decomposition as long as the rank of the tensor is at most (log n)^{1/C}, where C is some fixed constant independent of n and d. Further, we note that there cannot exist a polynomial-time algorithm for k = ω(log n) unless ETH fails. Our algorithm works for all fields; however, the time complexity worsens to 2^{k^{k^{𝒪(1)}}} and requires randomization for finite fields of large characteristics. Both conditions are provably necessary unless there are improvements in the state of the art for system solving over the corresponding fields. Our approach achieves this by designing a proper learning (reconstruction) algorithm for set-multilinear depth-3 arithmetic circuits. On a technical note, we design a "partial" clustering algorithm for set-multilinear depth-3 arithmetic circuits that lets us isolate a cluster from any set-multilinear depth-3 circuit while preserving the structure of the circuit.

Signotopes with Few Plus Signs

Authors: Helena Bergold, Lukas Egeling, and Hung P. Hoang

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 332, 41st International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2025)

Abstract
Arrangements of pseudohyperplanes are widely studied in computational geometry. A rich subclass of pseudohyerplane arrangements, which has gained more attention in recent years, is the so-called signotopes. Introduced by Manin and Schechtman (1989), the higher Bruhat order is a natural order of r-signotopes on n elements, with the signotope corresponding to the cyclic arrangement as the minimal element. In this paper, we show that the lower (and by symmetry upper) levels of this higher Bruhat order contain the same number of elements for a fixed difference n-r. This result implies that given the difference d = n-r and p, the number of one-element extensions of the cyclic arrangement of n hyperplanes in ℝ^d with at most p points on one side of the extending pseudohyperplane does not depend on n, as long as n ≥ d + p.

FL-RMQ: A Learned Approach to Range Minimum Queries

Authors: Paolo Ferragina and Filippo Lari

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 331, 36th Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2025)

Abstract
We address the problem of designing and implementing a data structure for the Range Minimum Query problem. We show a surprising connection between this classical problem and the geometry of a properly defined set of points in the Cartesian plane. Building on this insight, we hinge upon a well-known result in Computational Geometry to introduce the first RMQ solution that exploits (i.e., learns) the distribution of such 2D-points via proper error-bounded linear approximations. Because of these features, we name the resulting data structure: Fully-Learned RMQ, shortly FL-RMQ. We prove theoretical bounds for its space usage and query time, covering both worst-case scenarios and average-case performance for uniformly distributed inputs. These bounds compare favorably with the ones achievable by the best-known indexing solutions (i.e., the ones that allow access to the indexed array), especially when the input data follow some geometric regularities that we characterize in the paper, thus providing principled evidence of FL-RMQ being a novel data-aware solution to the RMQ problem. We corroborate our theoretical findings with a wide set of experiments showing that FL-RMQ offers more robust space-time trade-offs than the other known practical indexing solutions on both artificial and real-world datasets. We believe that our novel approach to the RMQ problem is noteworthy not only for its interesting space-time trade-offs, but also because it is flexible enough to be applied easily to the encoding variant of RMQ (i.e., the one that does not allow access to the indexed array), and moreover, because it paves the way to research opportunities on possibly other problems.

Quantum Data Sketches

Authors: Qin Zhang and Mohsen Heidari

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 328, 28th International Conference on Database Theory (ICDT 2025)

Abstract
Recent advancements in quantum technologies, particularly in quantum sensing and simulation, have facilitated the generation and analysis of inherently quantum data. This progress underscores the necessity for developing efficient and scalable quantum data management strategies. This goal faces immense challenges due to the exponential dimensionality of quantum data and its unique quantum properties such as no-cloning and measurement stochasticity. Specifically, classical storage and manipulation of an arbitrary n-qubit quantum state requires exponential space and time. Hence, there is a critical need to revisit foundational data management concepts and algorithms for quantum data. In this paper, we propose succinct quantum data sketches to support basic database operations such as search and selection. We view our work as an initial step towards the development of quantum data management model, opening up many possibilities for future research in this direction.

Optimal Oblivious Algorithms for Multi-Way Joins

Authors: Xiao Hu and Zhiang Wu

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 328, 28th International Conference on Database Theory (ICDT 2025)

Abstract
In cloud databases, cloud computation over sensitive data uploaded by clients inevitably causes concern about data security and privacy. Even if cryptographic primitives and trusted computing environments are integrated into query processing to safeguard the actual contents of the data, access patterns of algorithms can still leak private information about data. Oblivious RAM (ORAM) and circuits are two generic approaches to address this issue, ensuring that access patterns of algorithms remain oblivious to the data. However, deploying these methods on insecure algorithms, particularly for multi-way join processing, is computationally expensive and inherently challenging. In this paper, we propose a novel sorting-based algorithm for multi-way join processing that operates without relying on ORAM simulations or other security assumptions. Our algorithm is a non-trivial, provably oblivious composition of basic primitives, with time complexity matching the insecure worst-case optimal join algorithm, up to a logarithmic factor. Furthermore, it is cache-agnostic, with cache complexity matching the insecure lower bound, also up to a logarithmic factor. This clean and straightforward approach has the potential to be extended to other security settings and implemented in practical database systems.

Residue Domination in Bounded-Treewidth Graphs

Authors: Jakob Greilhuber, Philipp Schepper, and Philip Wellnitz

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 327, 42nd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2025)

Abstract
For the vertex selection problem (σ,ρ)-DomSet one is given two fixed sets σ and ρ of integers and the task is to decide whether we can select vertices of the input graph such that, for every selected vertex, the number of selected neighbors is in σ and, for every unselected vertex, the number of selected neighbors is in ρ [Telle, Nord. J. Comp. 1994]. This framework covers many fundamental graph problems such as Independent Set and Dominating Set. We significantly extend the recent result by Focke et al. [SODA 2023] to investigate the case when σ and ρ are two (potentially different) residue classes modulo m ≥ 2. We study the problem parameterized by treewidth and present an algorithm that solves in time m^tw ⋅ n^O(1) the decision, minimization and maximization version of the problem. This significantly improves upon the known algorithms where for the case m ≥ 3 not even an explicit running time is known. We complement our algorithm by providing matching lower bounds which state that there is no (m-ε)^pw ⋅ n^O(1)-time algorithm parameterized by pathwidth pw, unless SETH fails. For m = 2, we extend these bounds to the minimization version as the decision version is efficiently solvable.

Formulations and Constructions of Remote State Preparation with Verifiability, with Applications

Authors: Jiayu Zhang

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

Abstract
Remote state preparation with verifiability (RSPV) is an important quantum cryptographic primitive [Alexandru Gheorghiu and Thomas Vidick, 2019; Jiayu Zhang, 2022]. In this primitive, a client would like to prepare a quantum state (sampled or chosen from a state family) on the server side, such that ideally the client knows its full description, while the server holds and only holds the state itself. In this work we make several contributions on its formulations, constructions and applications. In more detail: - We first work on the definitions and abstract properties of the RSPV problem. We select and compare different variants of definitions [Bennett et al., 2001; Alexandru Gheorghiu and Thomas Vidick, 2019; Jiayu Zhang, 2022; Alexandru Gheorghiu et al., 2022], and study their basic properties (like composability and amplification). - We also study a closely related question of how to certify the server’s operations (instead of solely the states). We introduce a new notion named remote operator application with verifiability (ROAV). We compare this notion with related existing definitions [Summers and Werner, 1987; Dominic Mayers and Andrew Chi-Chih Yao, 2004; Zhengfeng Ji et al., 2021; Tony Metger and Thomas Vidick, 2021; Anand Natarajan and Tina Zhang, 2023], study its abstract properties and leave its concrete constructions for further works. - Building on the abstract properties and existing results [Zvika Brakerski et al., 2023], we construct a series of new RSPV protocols. Our constructions not only simplify existing results [Alexandru Gheorghiu and Thomas Vidick, 2019] but also cover new state families, for example, states in the form of 1/√2 (|0⟩ + |x_0⟩ + |1⟩ |x_1⟩). All these constructions rely only on the existence of weak NTCF [Zvika Brakerski et al., 2020; Navid Alamati et al., 2022], without additional requirements like the adaptive hardcore bit property [Zvika Brakerski et al., 2018; Navid Alamati et al., 2022]. - As a further application, we show that the classical verification of quantum computations (CVQC) problem [Dorit Aharonov et al., 2010; Urmila Mahadev, 2018] could be constructed from assumptions on group actions [Navid Alamati et al., 2020]. This is achieved by combining our results on RSPV with group-action-based instantiation of weak NTCF [Navid Alamati et al., 2022], and then with the quantum-gadget-assisted quantum verification protocol [Ferracin et al., 2018].

Single-Round Proofs of Quantumness from Knowledge Assumptions

Authors: Petia Arabadjieva, Alexandru Gheorghiu, Victor Gitton, and Tony Metger

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

Abstract
A proof of quantumness is an efficiently verifiable interactive test that an efficient quantum computer can pass, but all efficient classical computers cannot (under some cryptographic assumption). Such protocols play a crucial role in the certification of quantum devices. Existing single-round protocols based solely on a cryptographic hardness assumption (like asking the quantum computer to factor a large number) require large quantum circuits, whereas multi-round ones use smaller circuits but require experimentally challenging mid-circuit measurements. In this work, we construct efficient single-round proofs of quantumness based on existing knowledge assumptions. While knowledge assumptions have not been previously considered in this context, we show that they provide a natural basis for separating classical and quantum computation. Our work also helps in understanding the interplay between black-box/white-box reductions and cryptographic assumptions in the design of proofs of quantumness. Specifically, we show that multi-round protocols based on Decisional Diffie-Hellman (DDH) or Learning With Errors (LWE) can be "compiled" into single-round protocols using a knowledge-of-exponent assumption [Bitansky et al., 2012] or knowledge-of-lattice-point assumption [Loftus et al., 2012], respectively. We also prove an adaptive hardcore-bit statement for a family of claw-free functions based on DDH, which might be of independent interest.
