Extending EFX Allocations to Further Multi-Graph Classes

Authors: Umang Bhaskar and Yeshwant Pandit

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 360, 45th IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2025)

Abstract
The existence of EFX allocations is one of the most significant open questions in fair division. Recent work by Christodoulou, Fiat, Koutsoupias, and Sgouritsa ("Fair allocation in graphs," EC 2023) establishes the existence of EFX allocations for graphical valuations, when agents are vertices in a graph, items are edges, and each item has zero value for all agents other than those at its endpoints. Thus, in this setting, each good has non-zero value for at most two agents, and there is at most one good valued by any pair of agents. This marks one of the few cases when an exact and complete EFX allocation is known to exist for more than three agents. In this work, we partially extend these results to multi-graphs, when each pair of vertices can have more than one edge between them. The existence of EFX allocations in multi-graphs is a natural open question given their existence in simple graphs. We show that EFX allocations exist, and can be computed in polynomial time, for agents with cancelable valuations in the following cases: (i) bipartite multi-graphs, (ii) multi-trees with monotone valuations, and (iii) multi-graphs with girth (2t-1), where t is the chromatic number of the multi-graph. The existence of EFX in cycle multi-graphs follows from (i), (iii), and the known existence of EFX for three agents.

Enumerating the Irreducible Closed Sets of an Acyclic Implicational Base of Bounded Degree

Authors: Oscar Defrain, Arthur Ohana, and Simon Vilmin

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 359, 36th International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2025)

Abstract
We consider the problem of enumerating the irreducible closed sets of a closure system given by an implicational base. To date, the complexity status of this problem is widely open, and it is further known to generalize the notorious hypergraph dualization problem, even in the case of acyclic convex geometries, i.e., closure systems admitting an acyclic implicational base. This paper studies this case with a focus on the degree, which corresponds to the maximal number of implications in which an element occurs. We show that the problem is tractable for bounded values of this parameter, even when relaxed to the notions of premise- and conclusion-degree. Our algorithms rely on a sequential approach leveraging from acyclicity, combined with the solution graph traversal technique for the case of premise-degree. They are shown to perform in incremental-polynomial time. These results are complemented in the long version of this document by showing that the dual problem of constructing the implicational base can be solved in polynomial time. Finally, we argue that our running times cannot be improved to polynomial delay using the standard framework of flashlight search.

Enumerating Minimal Dominating Sets and Variants in Chordal Bipartite Graphs

Authors: Emanuel Castelo, Oscar Defrain, and Guilherme C. M. Gomes

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 349, 19th International Symposium on Algorithms and Data Structures (WADS 2025)

Abstract
Enumerating minimal dominating sets with polynomial delay in bipartite graphs is a long-standing open problem. To date, even the subcase of chordal bipartite graphs is open, with the best known algorithm due to Golovach, Heggernes, Kanté, Kratsch, Sæther, and Villanger running in incremental-polynomial time. We improve on this result by providing a polynomial delay and space algorithm enumerating minimal dominating sets in chordal bipartite graphs. Additionally, we show that the total and connected variants admit polynomial and incremental-polynomial delay algorithms, respectively, within the same class. This provides an alternative proof of a result by Golovach et al. for total dominating sets, and answers an open question for the connected variant. Finally, we give evidence that the techniques used in this paper cannot be generalized to bipartite graphs for (total) minimal dominating sets, unless P = NP, and show that enumerating minimal connected dominating sets in bipartite graphs is harder than enumerating minimal transversals in general hypergraphs.

On the Enumeration of Signatures of XOR-CNF’s

Authors: Nadia Creignou, Oscar Defrain, Frédéric Olive, and Simon Vilmin

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 349, 19th International Symposium on Algorithms and Data Structures (WADS 2025)

Abstract
Given a CNF formula φ with clauses C_1, … , C_m over a set of variables V, a truth assignment 𝐚: V → {0, 1} generates a binary sequence σ_φ(𝐚) = (C_1(𝐚), …, C_m(𝐚)), called a signature of φ, where C_i(𝐚) = 1 if clause C_i evaluates to 1 under assignment 𝐚, and C_i(𝐚) = 0 otherwise. Signatures and their associated generation problems have given rise to new yet promising research questions in algorithmic enumeration. In a recent paper, Bérczi et al. interestingly proved that generating signatures of a CNF is tractable despite the fact that verifying a solution is hard. They also showed the hardness of finding maximal signatures of an arbitrary CNF due to the intractability of satisfiability in general. Their contribution leaves open the problem of efficiently generating maximal signatures for tractable classes of CNFs, i.e., those for which satisfiability can be solved in polynomial time. Stepping into that direction, we completely characterize the complexity of generating all, minimal, and maximal signatures for XOR-CNF’s.

Designing Output Sensitive Algorithms for Subgraph Enumeration

Authors: Alessio Conte, Kazuhiro Kurita, Andrea Marino, Giulia Punzi, Takeaki Uno, and Kunihiro Wasa

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 132, From Strings to Graphs, and Back Again: A Festschrift for Roberto Grossi's 60th Birthday (2025)

Abstract
The enumeration of all subgraphs respecting some structural property is a fundamental task in theoretical computer science, with practical applications in many branches of data mining and network analysis. It is often of interest to only consider solutions (subgraphs) that are maximal under inclusion, and to achieve output-sensitive complexity, i.e., bounding the running time with respect to the number of subgraphs produced. In this paper, we provide a survey of techniques for designing output-sensitive algorithms for subgraph enumeration, including partition-based approaches such as flashlight search, solution-graph traversal methods such as reverse search, and cost amortization strategies such as push-out amortization. We also briefly discuss classes of efficiency, hardness of enumeration, and variants such as approximate enumeration. The paper is meant as an accessible handbook for learning the basics of the field and as a practical reference for selecting state-of-the-art subgraph enumeration strategies fitting to one’s needs.

Sparser Abelian High Dimensional Expanders

Authors: Yotam Dikstein, Siqi Liu, and Avi Wigderson

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 339, 40th Computational Complexity Conference (CCC 2025)

Abstract
The focus of this paper is the development of new elementary techniques for the construction and analysis of high dimensional expanders. Specifically, we present two new explicit constructions of Cayley high dimensional expanders (HDXs) over the abelian group 𝔽₂ⁿ. Our expansion proofs use only linear algebra and combinatorial arguments. The first construction gives local spectral HDXs of any constant dimension and subpolynomial degree exp(n^ε) for every ε > 0, improving on a construction by Golowich [Golowich, 2023] which achieves ε = 1/2. [Golowich, 2023] derives these HDXs by sparsifying the complete Grassmann poset of subspaces. The novelty in our construction is the ability to sparsify any expanding Grassmann posets, leading to iterated sparsification and much smaller degrees. The sparse Grassmannian (which is of independent interest in the theory of HDXs) serves as the generating set of the Cayley graph. Our second construction gives a 2-dimensional HDX of any polynomial degree exp(ε n) for any constant ε > 0, which is simultaneously a spectral expander and a coboundary expander. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first such non-trivial construction. We name it the Johnson complex, as it is derived from the classical Johnson scheme, whose vertices serve as the generating set of this Cayley graph. This construction may be viewed as a derandomization of the recent random geometric complexes of [Liu et al., 2023]. Establishing coboundary expansion through Gromov’s "cone method" and the associated isoperimetric inequalities is the most intricate aspect of this construction. While these two constructions are quite different, we show that they both share a common structure, resembling the intersection patterns of vectors in the Hadamard code. We propose a general framework of such "Hadamard-like" constructions in the hope that it will yield new HDXs.

Reducing Stochastic Games to Semidefinite Programming

Authors: Manuel Bodirsky, Georg Loho, and Mateusz Skomra

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

Abstract
We present a polynomial-time reduction from max-average constraints to the feasibility problem for semidefinite programs. This shows that Condon’s simple stochastic games, stochastic mean payoff games, and in particular mean payoff games and parity games can all be reduced to semidefinite programming.

Spanner Enumeration for Temporal Graphs

Authors: Kazuhiro Kurita, Andrea Marino, Jason Schoeters, and Takeaki Uno

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 330, 4th Symposium on Algorithmic Foundations of Dynamic Networks (SAND 2025)

Abstract
A spanner of a temporal graph is a subset of edges that preserves connectivity over time between vertices. A minimal spanner is one in which no additional edges can be removed without breaking this connectivity. Our focus is on enumerating minimal spanners for a given temporal graph. We explore several variations of this problem based on the type of connectivity that must be maintained, ranging from one-to-all connectivity to one-to-all-to-one, many-to-all, and finally all-to-all connectivity. We establish that these problems become progressively harder: (i) We present a polynomial-delay enumeration algorithm for one-to-all connectivity; (ii) We prove Dual-hardness for both one-to-all-to-one and many-to-all connectivity, even in the restricted case of two-to-all; (iii) Finally, for all-to-all connectivity, we show that enumeration cannot be performed in output-polynomial time unless P = NP.

Enumeration of Minimal Hitting Sets Parameterized by Treewidth

Authors: Batya Kenig and Dan Shlomo Mizrahi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 328, 28th International Conference on Database Theory (ICDT 2025)

Abstract
Enumerating the minimal hitting sets of a hypergraph is a problem which arises in many data management applications that include constraint mining, discovering unique column combinations, and enumerating database repairs. Previously, Eiter et al. [Thomas Eiter et al., 2003] showed that the minimal hitting sets of an n-vertex hypergraph, with treewidth w, can be enumerated with delay O^*(n^w) (ignoring polynomial factors), with space requirements that scale with the output size. We improve this to fixed-parameter-linear delay, following an FPT preprocessing phase. The memory consumption of our algorithm is exponential with respect to the treewidth of the hypergraph.

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 9, Issue 5 (2019)

Abstract
This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 19211 "Enumeration in Data Management". The goal of the seminar was to bring together researchers from various fields of computer science, including the Databases, Computational Logic, and Algorithms communities, and establish the means of collaboration towards considerable progress on the topic. Specifically, we aimed at understanding the recent developments, identifying the important open problems, and initiating collaborative efforts towards solutions thereof. In addition, we aimed to build and disseminate a toolkit for data-centric enumeration problems, including algorithmic techniques, proof techniques, and important indicator problems. Towards the objectives, the seminar included tutorials on the topic, invited talks, presentations of open problems, working groups on the open problems, discussions on platforms to compile the community knowledge, and the construction of various skeletons of such compilations.

Markov Decision Processes and Stochastic Games with Total Effective Payoff

Authors: Endre Boros, Khaled Elbassioni, Vladimir Gurvich, and Kazuhisa Makino

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 30, 32nd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2015)

Abstract
We consider finite Markov decision processes (MDPs) with undiscounted total effective payoff. We show that there exist uniformly optimal pure stationary strategies that can be computed by solving a polynomial number of linear programs. We apply this result to two-player zero-sum stochastic games with perfect information and undiscounted total effective payoff, and derive the existence of a saddle point in uniformly optimal pure stationary strategies.
