Beyond Exact Fairness: Envy-Free Incomplete Connected Fair Division

Authors: Ajaykrishnan E S and Daniel Lokshtanov

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


Abstract
We study the problem of Envy-Free Incomplete Connected Fair Division, where exactly p vertices of an undirected graph must be allocated to agents such that each agent receives a connected share and does not envy another agent’s share. Focusing on agents with additive valuations, we show that the problem remains computationally hard when parameterized by p and the number of agents. This result holds even for star graphs and with the input numbers given in unary representation, thereby resolving an open problem posed by Gahlawat and Zehavi (FSTTCS 2023). In stark contrast, we show that if one is willing to tolerate even the slightest amount of envy, then the problem becomes efficient with respect to the natural parameters. Specifically, we design an Efficient Parameterized Approximation Scheme parameterized by p and the number of agent types. Our algorithm works on general graphs and remains efficient even when the input numbers are provided in binary representation.

Simultaneously Fair Allocation of Indivisible Items Across Multiple Dimensions

Authors: Yasushi Kawase, Bodhayan Roy, and Mohammad Azharuddin Sanpui

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


Abstract
This paper explores the fair allocation of indivisible items in a multidimensional setting, motivated by the need to address fairness in complex environments where agents assess bundles according to multiple criteria. Such multidimensional settings are not merely of theoretical interest but are central to many real-world applications. For example, cloud computing resources are evaluated based on multiple criteria such as CPU cores, memory, and network bandwidth. In such cases, traditional one-dimensional fairness notions fail to capture fairness across multiple attributes. To address these challenges, we study two relaxed variants of envy-freeness: weak simultaneously envy-free up to c goods (weak sEFc) and strong simultaneously envy-free up to c goods (strong sEFc), which accommodate the multidimensionality of agents’ preferences. Under the weak notion, for every pair of agents and for each dimension, any perceived envy can be eliminated by removing, if necessary, a different set of goods from the envied agent’s allocation. In contrast, the strong version requires selecting a single set of goods whose removal from the envied bundle simultaneously eliminates envy in every dimension. We provide upper and lower bounds on the relaxation parameter c that guarantee the existence of weak or strong sEFc allocations, where these bounds are independent of the total number of items. In addition, we present algorithms for checking whether a weak or strong sEFc allocation exists. Moreover, we establish NP-hardness results for checking the existence of weak sEF1 and strong sEF1 allocations.

ASP Essentials: Modelling and Efficient Solving (Invited Paper)

Authors: Giuseppe Mazzotta and Francesco Ricca

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 138, Joint Proceedings of the 20th and 21st Reasoning Web Summer Schools (RW 2024 & RW 2025)


Abstract
Answer Set Programming (ASP) is a logic-based Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (KRR) paradigm that facilitates rapid prototyping of solutions for complex problems. It is particularly effective for tackling Deep Reasoning tasks involving exponentially large search spaces, such as combinatorial search and optimization. While getting started with ASP is relatively easy, mastering its advanced constructs and scaling solutions to real-world problem sizes can be challenging. This paper provides an introduction to ASP, guiding the reader from the fundamentals of the language to the application of programming methodologies and the computation of answer sets. Beyond the core framework, the paper also examines selected extensions of ASP that enable the modeling of complex problems, as well as compilation techniques designed to enhance solving efficiency. Furthermore, it mentions some recent tools that combine ASP with LLMs.

Inconsistency-Tolerant Semantics Based on (Preferred) Repairs (Invited Paper)

Authors: Camille Bourgaux

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 138, Joint Proceedings of the 20th and 21st Reasoning Web Summer Schools (RW 2024 & RW 2025)


Abstract
Real-world datasets are plagued by data quality issues which may render the data inconsistent w.r.t. a set of constraints, be they given by database integrity constraints or ontologies. A prominent way to handle such inconsistent data is to use inconsistency-tolerant semantics to obtain meaningful answers to queries. Most of these semantics are based on some notion of repairs, which represent ways of restoring the data consistency. The most basic kind of repairs is that of subset repairs, which are maximal consistent subsets of the dataset. However, in many scenarios, one can define preferred repairs based on some preference information. These lecture notes present inconsistency-tolerant semantics, focusing on the repair-based ones, then review different kinds of preferred repairs that have been considered in the literature. We present in particular the relationships between different kinds of preferred repairs and other notions related to inconsistency handling, the computational complexity of reasoning with (preferred) repairs, and some implementations.

Semi-Streaming Algorithms for Hypergraph Matching

Authors: Henrik Reinstädtler, S M Ferdous, Alex Pothen, Bora Uçar, and Christian Schulz

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 351, 33rd Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2025)


Abstract
We propose two one-pass streaming algorithms for the NP-hard hypergraph matching problem. The first algorithm stores a small subset of potential matching edges in a stack using dual variables to select edges. It has an approximation guarantee of 1/(d(1+ε)) and requires 𝒪((n/ε)log²n) bits of memory, where n is the number of vertices in the hypergraph, d is the maximum number of vertices in a hyperedge, and ε > 0 is a parameter to be chosen. The second algorithm computes, stores, and updates a single matching as the edges stream, with an approximation ratio dependent on a parameter α. Its best approximation guarantee is 1/((2d-1) + 2 √{d(d-1)}), and it requires only 𝒪(n) memory. We have implemented both algorithms and compared them with respect to solution quality, memory consumption, and running times on two diverse sets of hypergraphs with a non-streaming greedy and a naive streaming algorithm. Our results show that the streaming algorithms achieve much better solution quality than naive algorithms when facing adverse orderings. Furthermore, these algorithms reduce the memory required by a factor of 13 in the geometric mean on our test problems, and also outperform the offline Greedy algorithm in running time.

The Computational Complexity of Factored Graphs

Authors: Shreya Gupta, Boyang Huang, Russell Impagliazzo, Stanley Woo, and Christopher Ye

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 325, 16th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2025)


Abstract
While graphs and abstract data structures can be large and complex, practical instances are often regular or highly structured. If the instance has sufficient structure, we might hope to compress the object into a more succinct representation. An efficient algorithm (with respect to the compressed input size) could then lead to more efficient computations than algorithms taking the explicit, uncompressed object as input. This leads to a natural question: when does knowing the input instance has a more succinct representation make computation easier? We initiate the study of the computational complexity of problems on factored graphs: graphs that are given as a formula of products and unions on smaller graphs. For any graph problem, we define a parameterized version that takes factored graphs as input, parameterized by the number of (smaller) ordinary graphs used to construct the factored graph. In this setting, we characterize the parameterized complexity of several natural graph problems, exhibiting a variety of complexities. We show that a decision version of lexicographically first maximal independent set is XP-complete, and therefore unconditionally not fixed-parameter tractable (FPT). On the other hand, we show that clique counting is FPT. Finally, we show that reachability is XNL-complete. Moreover, XNL is contained in FPT if and only if NL is contained in some fixed polynomial time.

Ride Sharing with a Vehicle of Unlimited Capacity

Authors: Angelo Fanelli and Greco Gianluigi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 58, 41st International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2016)


Abstract
A ride sharing problem is considered where we are given a graph, whose edges are equipped with a travel cost, plus a set of objects, each associated with a transportation request given by a pair of origin and destination nodes. A vehicle travels through the graph, carrying each object from its origin to its destination without any bound on the number of objects that can be simultaneously transported. The vehicle starts and terminates its ride at given nodes, and the goal is to compute a minimum-cost ride satisfying all requests. This ride sharing problem is shown to be tractable on paths by designing a O(h*log(h)+n) algorithm, with h being the number of distinct requests and with n being the number of nodes in the path. The algorithm is then used as a subroutine to efficiently solve instances defined over cycles, hence covering all graphs with maximum degree 2. This traces the frontier of tractability, since NP-hard instances are exhibited over trees whose maximum degree is 3.
