Better Diameter Algorithms for Bounded VC-Dimension Graphs and Geometric Intersection Graphs

Authors: Lech Duraj, Filip Konieczny, and Krzysztof Potępa

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 308, 32nd Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2024)


Abstract
We develop a framework for algorithms finding the diameter in graphs of bounded distance Vapnik-Chervonenkis dimension, in (parameterized) subquadratic time complexity. The class of bounded distance VC-dimension graphs is wide, including, e.g. all minor-free graphs. We build on the work of Ducoffe et al. [SODA'20, SIGCOMP'22], improving their technique. With our approach the algorithms become simpler and faster, working in 𝒪{(k ⋅ n^{1-1/d} ⋅ m ⋅ polylog(n))} time complexity for the graph on n vertices and m edges, where k is the diameter and d is the distance VC-dimension of the graph. Furthermore, it allows us to use the improved technique in more general setting. In particular, we use this framework for geometric intersection graphs, i.e. graphs where vertices are identical geometric objects on a plane and the adjacency is defined by intersection. Applying our approach for these graphs, we partially answer a question posed by Bringmann et al. [SoCG'22], finding an 𝒪{(n^{7/4} ⋅ polylog(n))} parameterized diameter algorithm for unit square intersection graph of size n, as well as a more general algorithm for convex polygon intersection graphs.

A Sub-Quadratic Algorithm for the Longest Common Increasing Subsequence Problem

Authors: Lech Duraj

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 154, 37th International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2020)


Abstract
The Longest Common Increasing Subsequence problem (LCIS) is a natural variant of the celebrated Longest Common Subsequence (LCS) problem. For LCIS, as well as for LCS, there is an ?(n²)-time algorithm and a SETH-based conditional lower bound of ?(n^{2-ε}). For LCS, there is also the Masek-Paterson ?(n²/log n)-time algorithm, which does not seem to adapt to LCIS in any obvious way. Hence, a natural question arises: does any (slightly) sub-quadratic algorithm exist for the Longest Common Increasing Subsequence problem? We answer this question positively, presenting a ?(n²/log^a n)-time algorithm for a = 1/6-o(1). The algorithm is not based on memorizing small chunks of data (often used for logarithmic speedups, including the "Four Russians Trick" in LCS), but rather utilizes a new technique, bounding the number of significant symbol matches between the two sequences.

A Note on Two-Colorability of Nonuniform Hypergraphs

Authors: Lech Duraj, Grzegorz Gutowski, and Jakub Kozik

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 107, 45th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2018)


Abstract
For a hypergraph H, let q(H) denote the expected number of monochromatic edges when the color of each vertex in H is sampled uniformly at random from the set of size 2. Let s_{min}(H) denote the minimum size of an edge in H. Erdös asked in 1963 whether there exists an unbounded function g(k) such that any hypergraph H with s_{min}(H) >=slant k and q(H) <=slant g(k) is two colorable. Beck in 1978 answered this question in the affirmative for a function g(k) = Theta(log^* k). We improve this result by showing that, for an absolute constant delta>0, a version of random greedy coloring procedure is likely to find a proper two coloring for any hypergraph H with s_{min}(H) >=slant k and q(H) <=slant delta * log k.

Tight Conditional Lower Bounds for Longest Common Increasing Subsequence

Authors: Lech Duraj, Marvin Künnemann, and Adam Polak

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 89, 12th International Symposium on Parameterized and Exact Computation (IPEC 2017)


Abstract
We consider the canonical generalization of the well-studied Longest Increasing Subsequence problem to multiple sequences, called k-LCIS: Given k integer sequences X_1,...,X_k of length at most n, the task is to determine the length of the longest common subsequence of X_1,...,X_k that is also strictly increasing. Especially for the case of k=2 (called LCIS for short), several algorithms have been proposed that require quadratic time in the worst case. Assuming the Strong Exponential Time Hypothesis (SETH), we prove a tight lower bound, specifically, that no algorithm solves LCIS in (strongly) subquadratic time. Interestingly, the proof makes no use of normalization tricks common to hardness proofs for similar problems such as LCS. We further strengthen this lower bound to rule out O((nL)^{1-epsilon}) time algorithms for LCIS, where L denotes the solution size, and to rule out O(n^{k-epsilon}) time algorithms for k-LCIS. We obtain the same conditional lower bounds for the related Longest Common Weakly Increasing Subsequence problem.
