Computational Complexity of Swish Is Solved

Authors: Takashi Horiyama, Takehiro Ito, Jun Kawahara, Shin-ichi Minato, Akira Suzuki, Ryuhei Uehara, and Yutaro Yamaguchi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 366, 13th International Conference on Fun with Algorithms (FUN 2026)

Abstract
Swish is a card game in which players are given cards having symbols (hoops and balls), and find a valid superposition of cards, called a "swish." Dailly, Lafourcade, and Marcadet (FUN 2024) studied a generalized version of Swish and showed that the problem is solvable in polynomial time with one symbol per card, while it is NP-complete with three or more symbols per card. In this paper, we resolve the previously open case of two symbols per card, which corresponds to the original game. We show that Swish is NP-complete for this case. Specifically, we prove the NP-hardness when the allowed transformations of cards are restricted to a single (horizontal or vertical) flip or 180-degree rotation, and extend the results to the original setting allowing all three transformations. In contrast, when neither transformation is allowed, we present a polynomial-time algorithm. Combining known and our results, we establish a complete characterization of the computational complexity of Swish with respect to both the number of symbols per card and the allowed transformations.

Towards the Proximity Conjecture on Group-Labeled Matroids

Authors: Dániel Garamvölgyi, Ryuhei Mizutani, Taihei Oki, Tamás Schwarcz, and Yutaro Yamaguchi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 334, 52nd International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2025)

Abstract
Consider a matroid M whose ground set is equipped with a labeling to an abelian group. A basis of M is called F-avoiding if the sum of the labels of its elements is not in a forbidden label set F. Hörsch, Imolay, Mizutani, Oki, and Schwarcz (2024) conjectured that if an F-avoiding basis exists, then any basis can be transformed into an F-avoiding basis by exchanging at most |F| elements. This proximity conjecture is known to hold for certain specific groups; in the case where |F| ≤ 2; or when the matroid is subsequence-interchangeably base orderable (SIBO), which is a weakening of the so-called strongly base orderable (SBO) property. In this paper, we settle the proximity conjecture for sparse paving matroids or in the case where |F| ≤ 4. Related to the latter result, we present the first known example of a non-SIBO matroid. We further address the setting of multiple group-label constraints, showing proximity results for the cases of two labelings, SIBO matroids, matroids representable over a fixed, finite field, and sparse paving matroids.

Shortest Disjoint S-Paths Via Weighted Linear Matroid Parity

Authors: Yutaro Yamaguchi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 64, 27th International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2016)

Abstract
Mader's disjoint S-paths problem unifies two generalizations of bipartite matching: (a) non-bipartite matching and (b) disjoint s–t paths. Lovász (1980, 1981) first proposed an efficient algorithm for this problem via a reduction to matroid matching, which also unifies two generalizations of bipartite matching: (a) non-bipartite matching and (c) matroid intersection. While the weighted versions of the problems (a)-(c) in which we aim to minimize the total weight of a designated-size feasible solution are known to be solvable in polynomial time, the tractability of such a weighted version of Mader's problem has been open for a long while. In this paper, we present the first solution to this problem with the aid of a linear representation for Lovász' reduction (which leads to a reduction to linear matroid parity) due to Schrijver (2003) and polynomial-time algorithms for a weighted version of linear matroid parity announced by Iwata (2013) and by Pap (2013). Specifically, we give a reduction of the weighted version of Mader's problem to weighted linear matroid parity, which leads to an O(n^5)-time algorithm for the former problem, where n denotes the number of vertices in the input graph. Our reduction technique is also applicable to a further generalized framework, packing non-zero A-paths in group-labeled graphs, introduced by Chudnovsky, Geelen, Gerards, Goddyn, Lohman, and Seymour (2006). The extension leads to the tractability of a broader class of weighted problems not restricted to Mader’s setting.
