RANDOM
On the Communication Complexity of Finding a King in a Tournament

Authors: Nikhil S. Mande, Manaswi Paraashar, Swagato Sanyal, and Nitin Saurabh

Abstract
A tournament is a complete directed graph. A source in a tournament is a vertex that has no in-neighbours (every other vertex is reachable from it via a path of length 1), and a king in a tournament is a vertex v such that every other vertex is reachable from v via a path of length at most 2. It is well known that every tournament has at least one king. In particular, a maximum out-degree vertex is a king. The tasks of finding a king and a maximum out-degree vertex in a tournament has been relatively well studied in the context of query complexity. We study the communication complexity of finding a king, of finding a maximum out-degree vertex, and of finding a source (if it exists) in a tournament, where the edges are partitioned between two players. The following are our main results for n-vertex tournaments: - We show that the communication task of finding a source in a tournament is equivalent to the well-studied Clique vs. Independent Set (CIS) problem on undirected graphs. As a result, known bounds on the communication complexity of CIS [Yannakakis, JCSS'91, Göös, Pitassi, Watson, SICOMP'18] imply a bound of Θ̃(log² n) for finding a source (if it exists, or outputting that there is no source) in a tournament. - The deterministic and randomized communication complexities of finding a king are Θ(n). The quantum communication complexity of finding a king is Θ̃(√n). - The deterministic, randomized, and quantum communication complexities of finding a maximum out-degree vertex are Θ(n log n), Θ̃(n) and Θ̃(√n), respectively. Our upper bounds above hold for all partitions of edges, and the lower bounds for a specific partition of the edges. One of our lower bounds uses a fooling-set based argument, and all our other lower bounds follow from carefully-constructed reductions from Set-Disjointness. An interesting point to note here is that while the deterministic query complexity of finding a king has been open for over two decades [Shen, Sheng, Wu, SICOMP'03], we are able to essentially resolve the complexity of this problem in a model (communication complexity) that is usually harder to analyze than query complexity.

Monoids of Upper Triangular Matrices over the Boolean Semiring

Authors: Andrew Ryzhikov and Petra Wolf

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 306, 49th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2024)


Abstract
Given a finite set 𝒜 of square matrices and a square matrix B, all of the same dimension, the membership problem asks if B belongs to the monoid ℳ(𝒜) generated by 𝒜. The rank one problem asks if there is a matrix of rank one in ℳ(𝒜). We study the membership and the rank one problems in the case where all matrices are upper triangular matrices over the Boolean semiring. We characterize the computational complexity of these problems, and identify their PSPACE-complete and NP-complete special cases. We then consider, for a set 𝒜 of matrices from the same class, the problem of finding in ℳ(𝒜) a matrix of minimum rank with no zero rows. We show that the minimum rank of such matrix can be computed in linear time.We also characterize the space complexity of this problem depending on the size of 𝒜, and apply all these results to the ergodicity problem asking if ℳ(𝒜) contains a matrix with a column consisting of all ones. Finally, we show that our results give better upper bounds for the case where each row of every matrix in 𝒜 contains at most one non-zero entry than for the general case.

Polynomial Pass Semi-Streaming Lower Bounds for K-Cores and Degeneracy

Authors: Sepehr Assadi, Prantar Ghosh, Bruno Loff, Parth Mittal, and Sagnik Mukhopadhyay

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 300, 39th Computational Complexity Conference (CCC 2024)


Abstract
The following question arises naturally in the study of graph streaming algorithms: Is there any graph problem which is "not too hard", in that it can be solved efficiently with total communication (nearly) linear in the number n of vertices, and for which, nonetheless, any streaming algorithm with Õ(n) space (i.e., a semi-streaming algorithm) needs a polynomial n^Ω(1) number of passes? Assadi, Chen, and Khanna [STOC 2019] were the first to prove that this is indeed the case. However, the lower bounds that they obtained are for rather non-standard graph problems. Our first main contribution is to present the first polynomial-pass lower bounds for natural "not too hard" graph problems studied previously in the streaming model: k-cores and degeneracy. We devise a novel communication protocol for both problems with near-linear communication, thus showing that k-cores and degeneracy are natural examples of "not too hard" problems. Indeed, previous work have developed single-pass semi-streaming algorithms for approximating these problems. In contrast, we prove that any semi-streaming algorithm for exactly solving these problems requires (almost) Ω(n^{1/3}) passes. The lower bound follows by a reduction from a generalization of the hidden pointer chasing (HPC) problem of Assadi, Chen, and Khanna, which is also the basis of their earlier semi-streaming lower bounds. Our second main contribution is improved round-communication lower bounds for the underlying communication problems at the basis of these reductions: - We improve the previous lower bound of Assadi, Chen, and Khanna for HPC to achieve optimal bounds for this problem. - We further observe that all current reductions from HPC can also work with a generalized version of this problem that we call MultiHPC, and prove an even stronger and optimal lower bound for this generalization. These two results collectively allow us to improve the resulting pass lower bounds for semi-streaming algorithms by a polynomial factor, namely, from n^{1/5} to n^{1/3} passes.

Complexity of Robust Orbit Problems for Torus Actions and the abc-Conjecture

Authors: Peter Bürgisser, Mahmut Levent Doğan, Visu Makam, Michael Walter, and Avi Wigderson

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 300, 39th Computational Complexity Conference (CCC 2024)


Abstract
When a group acts on a set, it naturally partitions it into orbits, giving rise to orbit problems. These are natural algorithmic problems, as symmetries are central in numerous questions and structures in physics, mathematics, computer science, optimization, and more. Accordingly, it is of high interest to understand their computational complexity. Recently, Bürgisser et al. (2021) gave the first polynomial-time algorithms for orbit problems of torus actions, that is, actions of commutative continuous groups on Euclidean space. In this work, motivated by theoretical and practical applications, we study the computational complexity of robust generalizations of these orbit problems, which amount to approximating the distance of orbits in ℂⁿ up to a factor γ ≥ 1. In particular, this allows deciding whether two inputs are approximately in the same orbit or far from being so. On the one hand, we prove the NP-hardness of this problem for γ = n^Ω(1/log log n) by reducing the closest vector problem for lattices to it. On the other hand, we describe algorithms for solving this problem for an approximation factor γ = exp(poly(n)). Our algorithms combine tools from invariant theory and algorithmic lattice theory, and they also provide group elements witnessing the proximity of the given orbits (in contrast to the algebraic algorithms of prior work). We prove that they run in polynomial time if and only if a version of the famous number-theoretic abc-conjecture holds - establishing a new and surprising connection between computational complexity and number theory.

A Multivariate to Bivariate Reduction for Noncommutative Rank and Related Results

Authors: Vikraman Arvind and Pushkar S. Joglekar

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 297, 51st International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2024)


Abstract
We study the noncommutative rank problem, ncRANK, of computing the rank of matrices with linear entries in n noncommuting variables and the problem of noncommutative Rational Identity Testing, RIT, which is to decide if a given rational formula in n noncommuting variables is zero on its domain of definition. Motivated by the question whether these problems have deterministic NC algorithms, we revisit their interrelationship from a parallel complexity point of view. We show the following results: 1) Based on Cohn’s embedding theorem [Cohn, 1990; Cohn, 2006] we show deterministic NC reductions from multivariate ncRANK to bivariate ncRANK and from multivariate RIT to bivariate RIT. 2) We obtain a deterministic NC-Turing reduction from bivariate RIT to bivariate ncRANK, thereby proving that a deterministic NC algorithm for bivariate ncRANK would imply that both multivariate RIT and multivariate ncRANK are in deterministic NC.

Symbolic Determinant Identity Testing and Non-Commutative Ranks of Matrix Lie Algebras

Authors: Gábor Ivanyos, Tushant Mittal, and Youming Qiao

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 215, 13th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2022)


Abstract
One approach to make progress on the symbolic determinant identity testing (SDIT) problem is to study the structure of singular matrix spaces. After settling the non-commutative rank problem (Garg-Gurvits-Oliveira-Wigderson, Found. Comput. Math. 2020; Ivanyos-Qiao-Subrahmanyam, Comput. Complex. 2018), a natural next step is to understand singular matrix spaces whose non-commutative rank is full. At present, examples of such matrix spaces are mostly sporadic, so it is desirable to discover them in a more systematic way. In this paper, we make a step towards this direction, by studying the family of matrix spaces that are closed under the commutator operation, that is, matrix Lie algebras. On the one hand, we demonstrate that matrix Lie algebras over the complex number field give rise to singular matrix spaces with full non-commutative ranks. On the other hand, we show that SDIT of such spaces can be decided in deterministic polynomial time. Moreover, we give a characterization for the matrix Lie algebras to yield a matrix space possessing singularity certificates as studied by Lovász (B. Braz. Math. Soc., 1989) and Raz and Wigderson (Building Bridges II, 2019).

From Independent Sets and Vertex Colorings to Isotropic Spaces and Isotropic Decompositions: Another Bridge Between Graphs and Alternating Matrix Spaces

Authors: Xiaohui Bei, Shiteng Chen, Ji Guan, Youming Qiao, and Xiaoming Sun

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 151, 11th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2020)


Abstract
In the 1970’s, Lovász built a bridge between graphs and alternating matrix spaces, in the context of perfect matchings (FCT 1979). A similar connection between bipartite graphs and matrix spaces plays a key role in the recent resolutions of the non-commutative rank problem (Garg-Gurvits-Oliveira-Wigderson, FOCS 2016; Ivanyos-Qiao-Subrahmanyam, ITCS 2017). In this paper, we lay the foundation for another bridge between graphs and alternating matrix spaces, in the context of independent sets and vertex colorings. The corresponding structures in alternating matrix spaces are isotropic spaces and isotropic decompositions, both useful structures in group theory and manifold theory. We first show that the maximum independent set problem and the vertex c-coloring problem reduce to the maximum isotropic space problem and the isotropic c-decomposition problem, respectively. Next, we show that several topics and results about independent sets and vertex colorings have natural correspondences for isotropic spaces and decompositions. These include algorithmic problems, such as the maximum independent set problem for bipartite graphs, and exact exponential-time algorithms for the chromatic number, as well as mathematical questions, such as the number of maximal independent sets, and the relation between the maximum degree and the chromatic number. These connections lead to new interactions between graph theory and algebra. Some results have concrete applications to group theory and manifold theory, and we initiate a variant of these structures in the context of quantum information theory. Finally, we propose several open questions for further exploration. (Dedicated to the memory of Ker-I Ko)

On Learning Linear Functions from Subset and Its Applications in Quantum Computing

Authors: Gábor Ivanyos, Anupam Prakash, and Miklos Santha

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 112, 26th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2018)


Abstract
Let F_{q} be the finite field of size q and let l: F_{q}^{n} -> F_{q} be a linear function. We introduce the Learning From Subset problem LFS(q,n,d) of learning l, given samples u in F_{q}^{n} from a special distribution depending on l: the probability of sampling u is a function of l(u) and is non zero for at most d values of l(u). We provide a randomized algorithm for LFS(q,n,d) with sample complexity (n+d)^{O(d)} and running time polynomial in log q and (n+d)^{O(d)}. Our algorithm generalizes and improves upon previous results [Friedl et al., 2014; Gábor Ivanyos, 2008] that had provided algorithms for LFS(q,n,q-1) with running time (n+q)^{O(q)}. We further present applications of our result to the Hidden Multiple Shift problem HMS(q,n,r) in quantum computation where the goal is to determine the hidden shift s given oracle access to r shifted copies of an injective function f: Z_{q}^{n} -> {0, 1}^{l}, that is we can make queries of the form f_{s}(x,h) = f(x-hs) where h can assume r possible values. We reduce HMS(q,n,r) to LFS(q,n, q-r+1) to obtain a polynomial time algorithm for HMS(q,n,r) when q=n^{O(1)} is prime and q-r=O(1). The best known algorithms [Andrew M. Childs and Wim van Dam, 2007; Friedl et al., 2014] for HMS(q,n,r) with these parameters require exponential time.

Constructive Non-Commutative Rank Computation Is in Deterministic Polynomial Time

Authors: Gábor Ivanyos, Youming Qiao, and K Venkata Subrahmanyam

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 67, 8th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2017)


Abstract
Let {\mathcal B} be a linear space of matrices over a field {\mathbb spanned by n\times n matrices B_1, \dots, B_m. The non-commutative rank of {\mathcal B}$ is the minimum r\in {\mathbb N} such that there exists U\leq {\mathbb F}^n satisfying \dim(U)-\dim( {\mathcal B} (U))\geq n-r, where {\mathcal B}(U):={\mathrm span}(\cup_{i\in[m]} B_i(U)). Computing the non-commutative rank generalizes some well-known problems including the bipartite graph maximum matching problem and the linear matroid intersection problem. In this paper we give a deterministic polynomial-time algorithm to compute the non-commutative rank over any field {\mathbb F}. Prior to our work, such an algorithm was only known over the rational number field {\mathbb Q}, a result due to Garg et al, [GGOW]. Our algorithm is constructive and produces a witness certifying the non-commutative rank, a feature that is missing in the algorithm from [GGOW]. Our result is built on techniques which we developed in a previous paper [IQS1], with a new reduction procedure that helps to keep the blow-up parameter small. There are two ways to realize this reduction. The first involves constructivizing a key result of Derksen and Makam [DM2] which they developed in order to prove that the null cone of matrix semi-invariants is cut out by generators whose degree is polynomial in the size of the matrices involved. We also give a second, simpler method to achieve this. This gives another proof of the polynomial upper bound on the degree of the generators cutting out the null cone of matrix semi-invariants. Both the invariant-theoretic result and the algorithmic result rely crucially on the regularity lemma proved in [IQS1]. In this paper we improve on the constructive version of the regularity lemma from [IQS1] by removing a technical coprime condition that was assumed there.

On the Polynomial Parity Argument Complexity of the Combinatorial Nullstellensatz

Authors: Aleksandrs Belovs, Gábor Ivanyos, Youming Qiao, Miklos Santha, and Siyi Yang

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 79, 32nd Computational Complexity Conference (CCC 2017)


Abstract
The complexity class PPA consists of NP-search problems which are reducible to the parity principle in undirected graphs. It contains a wide variety of interesting problems from graph theory, combinatorics, algebra and number theory, but only a few of these are known to be complete in the class. Before this work, the known complete problems were all discretizations or combinatorial analogues of topological fixed point theorems. Here we prove the PPA-completeness of two problems of radically different style. They are PPA-Circuit CNSS and PPA-Circuit Chevalley, related respectively to the Combinatorial Nullstellensatz and to the Chevalley-Warning Theorem over the two elements field GF(2). The input of these problems contain PPA-circuits which are arithmetic circuits with special symmetric properties that assure that the polynomials computed by them have always an even number of zeros. In the proof of the result we relate the multilinear degree of the polynomials to the parity of the maximal parse subcircuits that compute monomials with maximal multilinear degree, and we show that the maximal parse subcircuits of a PPA-circuit can be paired in polynomial time.

Generalized Wong sequences and their applications to Edmonds' problems

Authors: Gábor Ivanyos, Marek Karpinski, Youming Qiao, and Miklos Santha

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 25, 31st International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2014)


Abstract
We design two deterministic polynomial time algorithms for variants of a problem introduced by Edmonds in 1967: determine the rank of a matrix M whose entries are homogeneous linear polynomials over the integers. Given a linear subspace B of the nxn matrices over some field F, we consider the following problems: symbolic matrix rank (SMR) is the problem to determine the maximum rank among matrices in B, while symbolic determinant identity testing (SDIT) is the question to decide whether there exists a nonsingular matrix in B. The constructive versions of these problems are asking to find a matrix of maximum rank, respectively a nonsingular matrix, if there exists one. Our first algorithm solves the constructive SMR when B is spanned by unknown rank one matrices, answering an open question of Gurvits. Our second algorithm solves the constructive SDIT when B is spanned by triangularizable matrices, but the triangularization is not given explicitly. Both algorithms work over finite fields of size at least n+1 and over the rational numbers, and the first algorithm actually solves (the non-constructive) SMR independent of the field size. Our main tool to obtain these results is to generalize Wong sequences, a classical method to deal with pairs of matrices, to the case of pairs of matrix spaces.

New bounds on the classical and quantum communication complexity of some graph properties

Authors: Gábor Ivanyos, Hartmut Klauck, Troy Lee, Miklos Santha, and Ronald de Wolf

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 18, IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2012)


Abstract
We study the communication complexity of a number of graph properties where the edges of the graph G are distributed between Alice and Bob (i.e., each receives some of the edges as input). Our main results are: 1. An Omega(n) lower bound on the quantum communication complexity of deciding whether an n-vertex graph G is connected, nearly matching the trivial classical upper bound of O(n log n) bits of communication. 2. A deterministic upper bound of O(n^{3/2} log n) bits for deciding if a bipartite graph contains a perfect matching, and a quantum lower bound of Omega(n) for this problem. 3. A Theta(n^2) bound for the randomized communication complexity of deciding if a graph has an Eulerian tour, and a Theta(n^{3/2}) bound for its quantum communication complexity. 4. The first two quantum lower bounds are obtained by exhibiting a reduction from the n-bit Inner Product problem to these graph problems, which solves an open question of Babai, Frankl and Simon [Babai et al 1986]. The third quantum lower bound comes from recent results about the quantum communication complexity of composed functions. We also obtain essentially tight bounds for the quantum communication complexity of a few other problems, such as deciding if $G$ is triangle-free, or if G is bipartite, as well as computing the determinant of a distributed matrix.
