Matching on the Line Admits No o(√log n)-Competitive Algorithm

Authors: Enoch Peserico and Michele Scquizzato

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


Abstract
We present a simple proof that the competitive ratio of any randomized online matching algorithm for the line exceeds √{log₂(n +1)}/15 for all n = 2ⁱ-1: i ∈ ℕ, settling a 25-year-old open question.

Oblivious Parallel Tight Compaction

Authors: Gilad Asharov, Ilan Komargodski, Wei-Kai Lin, Enoch Peserico, and Elaine Shi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 163, 1st Conference on Information-Theoretic Cryptography (ITC 2020)


Abstract
In tight compaction one is given an array of balls some of which are marked 0 and the rest are marked 1. The output of the procedure is an array that contains all of the original balls except that now the 0-balls appear before the 1-balls. In other words, tight compaction is equivalent to sorting the array according to 1-bit keys (not necessarily maintaining order within same-key balls). Tight compaction is not only an important algorithmic task by itself, but its oblivious version has also played a key role in recent constructions of oblivious RAM compilers. We present an oblivious deterministic algorithm for tight compaction such that for input arrays of n balls requires O(n) total work and O(log n) depth. Our algorithm is in the Exclusive-Read-Exclusive-Write Parallel-RAM model (i.e., EREW PRAM, the most restrictive PRAM model), and importantly we achieve asymptotical optimality in both total work and depth. To the best of our knowledge no earlier work, even when allowing randomization, can achieve optimality in both total work and depth.

Paging with Dynamic Memory Capacity

Authors: Enoch Peserico

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 126, 36th International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2019)


Abstract
We study a generalization of the classic paging problem that allows the amount of available memory to vary over time - capturing a fundamental property of many modern computing realities, from cloud computing to multi-core and energy-optimized processors. It turns out that good performance in the "classic" case provides no performance guarantees when memory capacity fluctuates: roughly speaking, moving from static to dynamic capacity can mean the difference between optimality within a factor 2 in space and time, and suboptimality by an arbitrarily large factor. More precisely, adopting the competitive analysis framework, we show that some online paging algorithms, despite having an optimal (h,k)-competitive ratio when capacity remains constant, are not (3,k)-competitive for any arbitrarily large k in the presence of minimal capacity fluctuations. In this light it is surprising that several classic paging algorithms perform remarkably well even if memory capacity changes adversarially - in fact, even without taking those changes into explicit account! In particular, we prove that LFD still achieves the minimum number of faults, and that several classic online algorithms such as LRU have a "dynamic" (h,k)-competitive ratio that is the best one can achieve without knowledge of future page requests, even if one had perfect knowledge of future capacity fluctuations. Thus, with careful management, knowing/predicting future memory resources appears far less crucial to performance than knowing/predicting future data accesses. We characterize the optimal "dynamic" (h,k)-competitive ratio exactly, and show it has a somewhat complex expression that is almost but not quite equal to the "classic" ratio k/(k-h+1), thus proving a strict if minuscule separation between online paging performance achievable in the presence or absence of capacity fluctuations.

On Approximating the Stationary Distribution of Time-reversible Markov Chains

Authors: Marco Bressan, Enoch Peserico, and Luca Pretto

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 96, 35th Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2018)


Abstract
Approximating the stationary probability of a state in a Markov chain through Markov chain Monte Carlo techniques is, in general, inefficient. Standard random walk approaches require tilde{O}(tau/pi(v)) operations to approximate the probability pi(v) of a state v in a chain with mixing time tau, and even the best available techniques still have complexity tilde{O}(tau^1.5 / pi(v)^0.5); and since these complexities depend inversely on pi(v), they can grow beyond any bound in the size of the chain or in its mixing time. In this paper we show that, for time-reversible Markov chains, there exists a simple randomized approximation algorithm that breaks this "small-pi(v) barrier".
