Random Order Vertex Arrival Contention Resolution Schemes for Matching, with Applications

Authors: Hu Fu, Zhihao Gavin Tang, Hongxun Wu, Jinzhao Wu, and Qianfan Zhang

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 198, 48th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2021)


Abstract
With a wide range of applications, stochastic matching problems have been studied in different models, including prophet inequality, Query-Commit, and Price-of-Information. While there have been recent breakthroughs in all these settings for bipartite graphs, few non-trivial results are known for general graphs. In this paper, we study the random order vertex arrival contention resolution scheme for matching in general graphs, which is inspired by the recent work of Ezra et al. (EC 2020). We design an 8/15-selectable batched RCRS for matching and apply it to achieve 8/15-competitive/approximate algorithms for all the three models. Our results are the first non-trivial results for random order prophet matching and Price-of-Information matching in general graphs. For the Query-Commit model, our result substantially improves upon the 0.501 approximation ratio by Tang et al. (STOC 2020). We also show that no batched RCRS for matching can be better than 1/2+1/(2e²) ≈ 0.567-selectable.

Improved Lower Bounds for Testing Triangle-freeness in Boolean Functions via Fast Matrix Multiplication

Authors: Hu Fu and Robert Kleinberg

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 28, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2014)


Abstract
Understanding the query complexity for testing linear-invariant properties has been a central open problem in the study of algebraic property testing. Triangle-freeness in Boolean functions is a simple property whose testing complexity is unknown. Three Boolean functions f1, f2 and f3, mapping {0,1}^k to {0,1}, are said to be triangle free if there is no x, y in {0,1}^k such that f1(x) = f2(y) = f3(x + y) = 1. This property is known to be strongly testable (Green 2005), but the number of queries needed is upper-bounded only by a tower of twos whose height is polynomial in 1 / epsislon, where epsislon is the distance between the tested function triple and triangle-freeness, i.e., the minimum fraction of function values that need to be modified to make the triple triangle free. A lower bound of (1 / epsilon)^2.423 for any one-sided tester was given by Bhattacharyya and Xie (2010). In this work we improve this bound to (1 / epsilon)^6.619. Interestingly, we prove this by way of a combinatorial construction called uniquely solvable puzzles that was at the heart of Coppersmith and Winograd's renowned matrix multiplication algorithm.
