An Improved ε-Approximation Algorithm for Geometric Bipartite Matching

Authors: Pankaj K. Agarwal, Sharath Raghvendra, Pouyan Shirzadian, and Rachita Sowle

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 227, 18th Scandinavian Symposium and Workshops on Algorithm Theory (SWAT 2022)

Abstract
For two point sets A, B ⊂ ℝ^d, with |A| = |B| = n and d > 1 a constant, and for a parameter ε > 0, we present a randomized algorithm that, with probability at least 1/2, computes in O(n(ε^{-O(d³)}log log n + ε^{-O(d)}log⁴ nlog⁵log n)) time, an ε-approximate minimum-cost perfect matching under any L_p-metric. All previous algorithms take n(ε^{-1}log n)^{Ω(d)} time. We use a randomly-shifted tree, with a polynomial branching factor and O(log log n) height, to define a tree-based distance function that ε-approximates the L_p metric as well as to compute the matching hierarchically. Then, we apply the primal-dual framework on a compressed representation of the residual graph to obtain an efficient implementation of the Hungarian-search and augment operations.

A Scalable Work Function Algorithm for the k-Server Problem

Authors: Sharath Raghvendra and Rachita Sowle

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 227, 18th Scandinavian Symposium and Workshops on Algorithm Theory (SWAT 2022)

Abstract
We provide a novel implementation of the classical Work Function Algorithm (WFA) for the k-server problem. In our implementation, processing a request takes O(n²+k²) time per request; where n is the total number of requests and k is the total number of servers. All prior implementations take Ω(kn² +k³) time per request. Previous approaches process a request by solving a min-cost flow problem. Instead, we show that processing a request can be reduced to an execution of the Dijkstra’s shortest-path algorithm on a carefully computed weighted graph leading to the speed-up.
