Approximating Pandora’s Box with Correlations

Authors: Shuchi Chawla, Evangelia Gergatsouli, Jeremy McMahan, and Christos Tzamos

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 275, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2023)

Abstract
We revisit the classic Pandora’s Box (PB) problem under correlated distributions on the box values. Recent work of [Shuchi Chawla et al., 2020] obtained constant approximate algorithms for a restricted class of policies for the problem that visit boxes in a fixed order. In this work, we study the complexity of approximating the optimal policy which may adaptively choose which box to visit next based on the values seen so far. Our main result establishes an approximation-preserving equivalence of PB to the well studied Uniform Decision Tree (UDT) problem from stochastic optimization and a variant of the Min-Sum Set Cover (MSSC_f) problem. For distributions of support m, UDT admits a log m approximation, and while a constant factor approximation in polynomial time is a long-standing open problem, constant factor approximations are achievable in subexponential time [Ray Li et al., 2020]. Our main result implies that the same properties hold for PB and MSSC_f. We also study the case where the distribution over values is given more succinctly as a mixture of m product distributions. This problem is again related to a noisy variant of the Optimal Decision Tree which is significantly more challenging. We give a constant-factor approximation that runs in time n^Õ(m²/ε²) when the mixture components on every box are either identical or separated in TV distance by ε.

Sorting Finite Automata via Partition Refinement

Authors: Ruben Becker, Manuel Cáceres, Davide Cenzato, Sung-Hwan Kim, Bojana Kodric, Francisco Olivares, and Nicola Prezza

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 274, 31st Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2023)

Abstract
Wheeler nondeterministic finite automata (WNFAs) were introduced in (Gagie et al., TCS 2017) as a powerful generalization of prefix sorting from strings to labeled graphs. WNFAs admit optimal solutions to classic hard problems on labeled graphs and languages such as compression and regular expression matching. The problem of deciding whether a given NFA is Wheeler is known to be NP-complete (Gibney and Thankachan, ESA 2019). Recently, however, Alanko et al. (Information and Computation 2021) showed how to side-step this complexity by switching to preorders: letting Q be the set of states and δ the set of transitions, they provided a O(|δ|⋅|Q|²)-time algorithm computing a totally-ordered partition (i.e. equivalence relation) of the WNFA’s states such that (1) equivalent states recognize the same regular language, and (2) the order of (the classes of) non-equivalent states is consistent with any Wheeler order, when one exists. As a result, the output is a preorder of the states as useful for pattern matching as standard Wheeler orders. Further extensions of this line of work (Cotumaccio et al., SODA 2021 and DCC 2022) generalized these concepts to arbitrary NFAs by introducing co-lex partial preorders: in general, any NFA admits a partial preorder of its states reflecting the co-lexicographic order of their accepted strings; the smaller the width of such preorder is, the faster regular expression matching queries can be performed. To date, the fastest algorithm for computing the smallest-width partial preorder on NFAs runs in O(|δ|² + |Q|^{5/2}) time (Cotumaccio, DCC 2022), while on DFAs the same task can be accomplished in O(min(|Q|²log|Q|, |δ|⋅|Q|)) time (Kim et al., CPM 2023). In this paper, we provide much more efficient solutions to the co-lex order computation problem. Our results are achieved by extending a classic algorithm for the relational coarsest partition refinement problem of Paige and Tarjan to work with ordered partitions. More specifically, we provide a O(|δ|log|Q|)-time algorithm computing a co-lex total preorder when the input is a Wheeler NFA, and an algorithm with the same time complexity computing the smallest-width co-lex partial order of any DFA. In addition, we present implementations of our algorithms and show that they are very efficient also in practice.

Approximating Min-Diameter: Standard and Bichromatic

Authors: Aaron Berger, Jenny Kaufmann, and Virginia Vassilevska Williams

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 274, 31st Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2023)

Abstract
The min-diameter of a directed graph G is a measure of the largest distance between nodes. It is equal to the maximum min-distance d_{min}(u,v) across all pairs u,v ∈ V(G), where d_{min}(u,v) = min(d(u,v), d(v,u)). Min-diameter approximation in directed graphs has attracted attention recently as an offshoot of the classical and well-studied diameter approximation problem. Our work provides a 3/2-approximation algorithm for min-diameter in DAGs running in time O(m^{1.426} n^{0.288}), and a faster almost-3/2-approximation variant which runs in time O(m^{0.713} n). (An almost-α-approximation algorithm determines the min-diameter to within a multiplicative factor of α plus constant additive error.) This is the first known algorithm to solve 3/2-approximation for min-diameter in sparse DAGs in truly subquadratic time O(m^{2-ε}) for ε > 0; previously only a 2-approximation was known. By a conditional lower bound result of [Abboud et al, SODA 2016], a better than 3/2-approximation can't be achieved in truly subquadratic time under the Strong Exponential Time Hypothesis (SETH), so our result is conditionally tight. We additionally obtain a new conditional lower bound for min-diameter approximation in general directed graphs, showing that under SETH, one cannot achieve an approximation factor below 2 in truly subquadratic time. Our work also presents the first study of approximating bichromatic min-diameter, which is the maximum min-distance between oppositely colored vertices in a 2-colored graph. We show that SETH implies that in DAGs, a better than 2 approximation cannot be achieved in truly subquadratic time, and that in general graphs, an approximation within a factor below 5/2 is similarly out of reach. We then obtain an O(m)-time algorithm which determines if bichromatic min-diameter is finite, and an almost-2-approximation algorithm for bichromatic min-diameter with runtime Õ(min(m^{4/3} n^{1/3}, m^{1/2} n^{3/2})).

Faster 0-1-Knapsack via Near-Convex Min-Plus-Convolution

Authors: Karl Bringmann and Alejandro Cassis

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 274, 31st Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2023)

Abstract
We revisit the classic 0-1-Knapsack problem, in which we are given n items with their weights and profits as well as a weight budget W, and the goal is to find a subset of items of total weight at most W that maximizes the total profit. We study pseudopolynomial-time algorithms parameterized by the largest profit of any item p_{max}, and the largest weight of any item w_max. Our main result are algorithms for 0-1-Knapsack running in time Õ(n w_max p_max^{2/3}) and Õ(n p_max w_max^{2/3}), improving upon an algorithm in time O(n p_max w_max) by Pisinger [J. Algorithms '99]. In the regime p_max ≈ w_max ≈ n (and W ≈ OPT ≈ n²) our algorithms are the first to break the cubic barrier n³. To obtain our result, we give an efficient algorithm to compute the min-plus convolution of near-convex functions. More precisely, we say that a function f : [n] ↦ ℤ is Δ-near convex with Δ ≥ 1, if there is a convex function f ̆ such that f ̆(i) ≤ f(i) ≤ f ̆(i) + Δ for every i. We design an algorithm computing the min-plus convolution of two Δ-near convex functions in time Õ(nΔ). This tool can replace the usage of the prediction technique of Bateni, Hajiaghayi, Seddighin and Stein [STOC '18] in all applications we are aware of, and we believe it has wider applicability.

Effective Resistances in Non-Expander Graphs

Authors: Dongrun Cai, Xue Chen, and Pan Peng

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 274, 31st Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2023)

Abstract
Effective resistances are ubiquitous in graph algorithms and network analysis. For an undirected graph G, its effective resistance R_G(s,t) between two vertices s and t is defined as the equivalent resistance between s and t if G is thought of as an electrical network with unit resistance on each edge. If we use L_G to denote the Laplacian matrix of G and L_G^† to denote its pseudo-inverse, we have R_G(s,t) = (𝟏_s-𝟏_t)^⊤ L^† (𝟏_s-𝟏_t) such that classical Laplacian solvers [Daniel A. Spielman and Shang{-}Hua Teng, 2014] provide almost-linear time algorithms to approximate R_G(s,t). In this work, we study sublinear time algorithms to approximate the effective resistance of an adjacent pair s and t. We consider the classical adjacency list model [Ron, 2019] for local algorithms. While recent works [Andoni et al., 2018; Peng et al., 2021; Li and Sachdeva, 2023] have provided sublinear time algorithms for expander graphs, we prove several lower bounds for general graphs of n vertices and m edges: 1) It needs Ω(n) queries to obtain 1.01-approximations of the effective resistance of an adjacent pair s and t, even for graphs of degree at most 3 except s and t. 2) For graphs of degree at most d and any parameter 𝓁, it needs Ω(m/𝓁) queries to obtain c ⋅ min{d,𝓁}-approximations where c > 0 is a universal constant. Moreover, we supplement the first lower bound by providing a sublinear time (1+ε)-approximation algorithm for graphs of degree 2 except the pair s and t. One of our technical ingredients is to bound the expansion of a graph in terms of the smallest non-trivial eigenvalue of its Laplacian matrix after removing edges. We discover a new lower bound on the eigenvalues of perturbed graphs (resp. perturbed matrices) by incorporating the effective resistance of the removed edge (resp. the leverage scores of the removed rows), which may be of independent interest.

New Menger-Like Dualities in Digraphs and Applications to Half-Integral Linkages

Authors: Victor Campos, Jonas Costa, Raul Lopes, and Ignasi Sau

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 274, 31st Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2023)

Abstract
We present new min-max relations in digraphs between the number of paths satisfying certain conditions and the order of the corresponding cuts. We define these objects in order to capture, in the context of solving the half-integral linkage problem, the essential properties needed for reaching a large bramble of congestion two (or any other constant) from the terminal set. This strategy has been used ad-hoc in several articles, usually with lengthy technical proofs, and our objective is to abstract it to make it applicable in a simpler and unified way. We provide two proofs of the min-max relations, one consisting in applying Menger’s Theorem on appropriately defined auxiliary digraphs, and an alternative simpler one using matroids, however with worse polynomial running time. As an application, we manage to simplify and improve several results of Edwards et al. [ESA 2017] and of Giannopoulou et al. [SODA 2022] about finding half-integral linkages in digraphs. Concerning the former, besides being simpler, our proof provides an almost optimal bound on the strong connectivity of a digraph for it to be half-integrally feasible under the presence of a large bramble of congestion two (or equivalently, if the directed tree-width is large, which is the hard case). Concerning the latter, our proof uses brambles as rerouting objects instead of cylindrical grids, hence yielding much better bounds and being somehow independent of a particular topology. We hope that our min-max relations will find further applications as, in our opinion, they are simple, robust, and versatile to be easily applicable to different types of routing problems in digraphs.

Optimal Energetic Paths for Electric Cars

Authors: Dani Dorfman, Haim Kaplan, Robert E. Tarjan, and Uri Zwick

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 274, 31st Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2023)

Abstract
A weighted directed graph G = (V,A,c), where A ⊆ V× V and c:A → ℝ, naturally describes a road network in which an electric car, or vehicle (EV), can roam. An arc uv ∈ A models a road segment connecting the two vertices (junctions) u and v. The cost c(uv) of the arc uv is the amount of energy the car needs to travel from u to v. This amount can be positive, zero or negative. We consider both the more realistic scenario where there are no negative cycles in the graph, as well as the more challenging scenario, which can also be motivated, where negative cycles may be present. The electric car has a battery that can store up to B units of energy. The car can traverse an arc uv ∈ A only if it is at u and the charge b in its battery satisfies b ≥ c(uv). If the car traverses the arc uv then it reaches v with a charge of min{b-c(uv),B} in its battery. Arcs with a positive cost deplete the battery while arcs with negative costs may charge the battery, but not above its capacity of B. If the car is at a vertex u and cannot traverse any outgoing arcs of u, then it is stuck and cannot continue traveling. We consider the following natural problem: Given two vertices s,t ∈ V, can the car travel from s to t, starting at s with an initial charge b, where 0 ≤ b ≤ B? If so, what is the maximum charge with which the car can reach t? Equivalently, what is the smallest depletion δ_{B,b}(s,t) such that the car can reach t with a charge of b-δ_{B,b}(s,t) in its battery, and which path should the car follow to achieve this? We also refer to δ_{B,b}(s,t) as the energetic cost of traveling from s to t. We let δ_{B,b}(s,t) = ∞ if the car cannot travel from s to t starting with an initial charge of b. The problem of computing energetic costs is a strict generalization of the standard shortest paths problem. When there are no negative cycles, the single-source version of the problem can be solved using simple adaptations of the classical Bellman-Ford and Dijkstra algorithms. More involved algorithms are required when the graph may contain negative cycles.

Improved Quantum Boosting

Authors: Adam Izdebski and Ronald de Wolf

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 274, 31st Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2023)

Abstract
Boosting is a general method to convert a weak learner (which generates hypotheses that are just slightly better than random) into a strong learner (which generates hypotheses that are much better than random). Recently, Arunachalam and Maity [Srinivasan Arunachalam and Reevu Maity, 2020] gave the first quantum improvement for boosting, by combining Freund and Schapire’s AdaBoost algorithm with a quantum algorithm for approximate counting. Their booster is faster than classical boosting as a function of the VC-dimension of the weak learner’s hypothesis class, but worse as a function of the quality of the weak learner. In this paper we give a substantially faster and simpler quantum boosting algorithm, based on Servedio’s SmoothBoost algorithm [Servedio, 2003].

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 274, 31st Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2023)

Abstract
This paper is about the problem of finding a shortest s-t path using at most h edges in edge-weighted graphs. The Bellman-Ford algorithm solves this problem in O(hm) time, where m is the number of edges. We show that this running time is optimal, up to subpolynomial factors, under popular fine-grained complexity assumptions. More specifically, we show that under the APSP Hypothesis the problem cannot be solved faster already in undirected graphs with nonnegative edge weights. This lower bound holds even restricted to graphs of arbitrary density and for arbitrary h ∈ O(√m). Moreover, under a stronger assumption, namely the Min-Plus Convolution Hypothesis, we can eliminate the restriction h ∈ O(√m). In other words, the O(hm) bound is tight for the entire space of parameters h, m, and n, where n is the number of nodes. Our lower bounds can be contrasted with the recent near-linear time algorithm for the negative-weight Single-Source Shortest Paths problem, which is the textbook application of the Bellman-Ford algorithm.

Approximation Schemes for Min-Sum k-Clustering

Authors: Ismail Naderi, Mohsen Rezapour, and Mohammad R. Salavatipour

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 274, 31st Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2023)

Abstract
We consider the Min-Sum k-Clustering (k-MSC) problem. Given a set of points in a metric which is represented by an edge-weighted graph G = (V, E) and a parameter k, the goal is to partition the points V into k clusters such that the sum of distances between all pairs of the points within the same cluster is minimized. The k-MSC problem is known to be APX-hard on general metrics. The best known approximation algorithms for the problem obtained by Behsaz, Friggstad, Salavatipour and Sivakumar [Algorithmica 2019] achieve an approximation ratio of O(log |V|) in polynomial time for general metrics and an approximation ratio 2+ε in quasi-polynomial time for metrics with bounded doubling dimension. No approximation schemes for k-MSC (when k is part of the input) is known for any non-trivial metrics prior to our work. In fact, most of the previous works rely on the simple fact that there is a 2-approximate reduction from k-MSC to the balanced k-median problem and design approximation algorithms for the latter to obtain an approximation for k-MSC. In this paper, we obtain the first Quasi-Polynomial Time Approximation Schemes (QPTAS) for the problem on metrics induced by graphs of bounded treewidth, graphs of bounded highway dimension, graphs of bounded doubling dimensions (including fixed dimensional Euclidean metrics), and planar and minor-free graphs. We bypass the barrier of 2 for k-MSC by introducing a new clustering problem, which we call min-hub clustering, which is a generalization of balanced k-median and is a trade off between center-based clustering problems (such as balanced k-median) and pair-wise clustering (such as Min-Sum k-clustering). We then show how one can find approximation schemes for Min-hub clustering on certain classes of metrics.

Fault Tolerance in Euclidean Committee Selection

Authors: Chinmay Sonar, Subhash Suri, and Jie Xue

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 274, 31st Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2023)

Abstract
In the committee selection problem, the goal is to choose a subset of size k from a set of candidates C that collectively gives the best representation to a set of voters. We consider this problem in Euclidean d-space where each voter/candidate is a point and voters' preferences are implicitly represented by Euclidean distances to candidates. We explore fault-tolerance in committee selection and study the following three variants: (1) given a committee and a set of f failing candidates, find their optimal replacement; (2) compute the worst-case replacement score for a given committee under failure of f candidates; and (3) design a committee with the best replacement score under worst-case failures. The score of a committee is determined using the well-known (min-max) Chamberlin-Courant rule: minimize the maximum distance between any voter and its closest candidate in the committee. Our main results include the following: (1) in one dimension, all three problems can be solved in polynomial time; (2) in dimension d ≥ 2, all three problems are NP-hard; and (3) all three problems admit a constant-factor approximation in any fixed dimension, and the optimal committee problem has an FPT bicriterion approximation.

Improved Compression of the Okamura-Seymour Metric

Authors: Shay Mozes, Nathan Wallheimer, and Oren Weimann

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

Abstract
Let G = (V,E) be an undirected unweighted planar graph. Let S = {s_1,…,s_k} be the vertices of some face in G and let T ⊆ V be an arbitrary set of vertices. The Okamura-Seymour metric compression problem asks to compactly encode the S-to-T distances. Consider a vector storing the distances from an arbitrary vertex v to all vertices S = {s_1,…,s_k} in their cyclic order. The pattern of v is obtained by taking the difference between every pair of consecutive values of this vector. In STOC'19, Li and Parter used a VC-dimension argument to show that in planar graphs, the number of distinct patterns, denoted p_#, is only O(k³). This resulted in a simple Õ(min{k⁴+|T|, k⋅|T|}) space compression of the Okamura-Seymour metric. We give an alternative proof of the p_# = O(k³) bound that exploits planarity beyond the VC-dimension argument. Namely, our proof relies on cut-cycle duality, as well as on the fact that distances among vertices of S are bounded by k. Our method implies the following: (1) An Õ(p_#+k+|T|) space compression of the Okamura-Seymour metric, thus improving the compression of Li and Parter to Õ(min{k³+|T|, k⋅|T|}). (2) An optimal Õ(k+|T|) space compression of the Okamura-Seymour metric, in the case where the vertices of T induce a connected component in G. (3) A tight bound of p_# = Θ(k²) for the family of Halin graphs, whereas the VC-dimension argument is limited to showing p_# = O(k³).

Low-Degree Polynomials Extract From Local Sources

Authors: Omar Alrabiah, Eshan Chattopadhyay, Jesse Goodman, Xin Li, and João Ribeiro

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 229, 49th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2022)

Abstract
We continue a line of work on extracting random bits from weak sources that are generated by simple processes. We focus on the model of locally samplable sources, where each bit in the source depends on a small number of (hidden) uniformly random input bits. Also known as local sources, this model was introduced by De and Watson (TOCT 2012) and Viola (SICOMP 2014), and is closely related to sources generated by AC⁰ circuits and bounded-width branching programs. In particular, extractors for local sources also work for sources generated by these classical computational models. Despite being introduced a decade ago, little progress has been made on improving the entropy requirement for extracting from local sources. The current best explicit extractors require entropy n^{1/2}, and follow via a reduction to affine extractors. To start, we prove a barrier showing that one cannot hope to improve this entropy requirement via a black-box reduction of this form. In particular, new techniques are needed. In our main result, we seek to answer whether low-degree polynomials (over 𝔽₂) hold potential for breaking this barrier. We answer this question in the positive, and fully characterize the power of low-degree polynomials as extractors for local sources. More precisely, we show that a random degree r polynomial is a low-error extractor for n-bit local sources with min-entropy Ω(r(nlog n)^{1/r}), and we show that this is tight. Our result leverages several new ingredients, which may be of independent interest. Our existential result relies on a new reduction from local sources to a more structured family, known as local non-oblivious bit-fixing sources. To show its tightness, we prove a "local version" of a structural result by Cohen and Tal (RANDOM 2015), which relies on a new "low-weight" Chevalley-Warning theorem.

The Fine-Grained Complexity of Episode Matching

Authors: Philip Bille, Inge Li Gørtz, Shay Mozes, Teresa Anna Steiner, and Oren Weimann

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 223, 33rd Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2022)

Abstract
Given two strings S and P, the Episode Matching problem is to find the shortest substring of S that contains P as a subsequence. The best known upper bound for this problem is Õ(nm) by Das et al. (1997), where n,m are the lengths of S and P, respectively. Although the problem is well studied and has many applications in data mining, this bound has never been improved. In this paper we show why this is the case by proving that no O((nm)^{1-ε}) algorithm (even for binary strings) exists, unless the Strong Exponential Time Hypothesis (SETH) is false. We then consider the indexing version of the problem, where S is preprocessed into a data structure for answering episode matching queries P. We show that for any τ, there is a data structure using O(n+(n/(τ)) ^k) space that answers episode matching queries for any P of length k in O(k⋅ τ ⋅ log log n) time. We complement this upper bound with an almost matching lower bound, showing that any data structure that answers episode matching queries for patterns of length k in time O(n^δ), must use Ω(n^{k-kδ-o(1)}) space, unless the Strong k-Set Disjointness Conjecture is false. Finally, for the special case of k = 2, we present a faster construction of the data structure using fast min-plus multiplication of bounded integer matrices.

Combining Clause Learning and Branch and Bound for MaxSAT

Authors: Chu-Min Li, Zhenxing Xu, Jordi Coll, Felip Manyà, Djamal Habet, and Kun He

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 210, 27th International Conference on Principles and Practice of Constraint Programming (CP 2021)

Abstract
Branch and Bound (BnB) is a powerful technique that has been successfully used to solve many combinatorial optimization problems. However, MaxSAT is a notorious exception because BnB MaxSAT solvers perform poorly on many instances encoding interesting real-world and academic optimization problems. This has formed a prevailing opinion in the community stating that BnB is not so useful for MaxSAT, except for random and some special crafted instances. In fact, there has been no advance allowing to significantly speed up BnB MaxSAT solvers in the past few years, as illustrated by the absence of BnB solvers in the annual MaxSAT Evaluation since 2017. Our work aims to change this situation and proposes a new BnB MaxSAT solver, called MaxCDCL, by combining clause learning and an efficient bounding procedure. The experimental results show that, contrary to the prevailing opinion, BnB can be competitive for MaxSAT. MaxCDCL is ranked among the top 5 solvers of the 15 solvers that participated in the 2020 MaxSAT Evaluation, solving a number of instances that other solvers cannot solve. Furthermore, MaxCDCL, when combined with the best existing solvers, solves the highest number of instances of the MaxSAT Evaluations.
