NP-Hardness of Almost Coloring Almost 3-Colorable Graphs

Authors: Yahli Hecht, Dor Minzer, and Muli Safra

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

Abstract
A graph G = (V,E) is said to be (k,δ) almost colorable if there is a subset of vertices V' ⊆ V of size at least (1-δ)|V| such that the induced subgraph of G on V' is k-colorable. We prove that for all k, there exists δ > 0 such for all ε > 0, given a graph G it is NP-hard (under randomized reductions) to distinguish between: 1) Yes case: G is (3,ε) almost colorable. 2) No case: G is not (k,δ) almost colorable. This improves upon an earlier result of Khot et al. [Irit Dinur et al., 2018], who showed a weaker result wherein in the "yes case" the graph is (4,ε) almost colorable.

Explicit and Efficient Construction of Nearly Optimal Rate Codes for the Binary Deletion Channel and the Poisson Repeat Channel

Authors: Ittai Rubinstein

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

Abstract
Two of the most common models for channels with synchronisation errors are the Binary Deletion Channel with parameter p (BDC_p) - a channel where every bit of the codeword is deleted i.i.d with probability p, and the Poisson Repeat Channel with parameter λ (PRC_λ) - a channel where every bit of the codeword is repeated Poisson(λ) times. Previous constructions based on synchronisation strings yielded codes with rates far lower than the capacities of these channels [Con and Shpilka, 2019; Guruswami and Li, 2018], and the only efficient construction to achieve capacity on the BDC at the time of writing this paper is based on the far more advanced methods of polar codes [Tal et al., 2021]. In this work, we present a new method for concatenating synchronisation codes and use it to construct simple and efficient encoding and decoding algorithms for both channels with nearly optimal rates.

Theorems of KKL, Friedgut, and Talagrand via Random Restrictions and Log-Sobolev Inequality

Authors: Esty Kelman, Subhash Khot, Guy Kindler, Dor Minzer, and Muli Safra

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 185, 12th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2021)

Abstract
We give alternate proofs for three related results in analysis of Boolean functions, namely the KKL Theorem, Friedgut’s Junta Theorem, and Talagrand’s strengthening of the KKL Theorem. We follow a new approach: looking at the first Fourier level of the function after a suitable random restriction and applying the Log-Sobolev inequality appropriately. In particular, we avoid using the hypercontractive inequality that is common to the original proofs. Our proofs might serve as an alternate, uniform exposition to these theorems and the techniques might benefit further research.
