RANDOM
Sublinear Space Graph Algorithms in the Continual Release Model

Authors: Alessandro Epasto, Quanquan C. Liu, Tamalika Mukherjee, and Felix Zhou

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 353, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2025)


Abstract
The graph continual release model of differential privacy seeks to produce differentially private solutions to graph problems under a stream of edge updates where new private solutions are released after each update. Thus far, previously known edge-differentially private algorithms for most graph problems including densest subgraph and matchings in the continual release setting only output real-value estimates (not vertex subset solutions) and do not use sublinear space. Instead, they rely on computing exact graph statistics on the input [Hendrik Fichtenberger et al., 2021; Shuang Song et al., 2018]. In this paper, we leverage sparsification to address the above shortcomings for edge-insertion streams. Our edge-differentially private algorithms use sublinear space with respect to the number of edges in the graph while some also achieve sublinear space in the number of vertices in the graph. In addition, for the densest subgraph problem, we also output edge-differentially private vertex subset solutions; no previous graph algorithms in the continual release model output such subsets. We make novel use of assorted sparsification techniques from the non-private streaming and static graph algorithms literature to achieve new results in the sublinear space, continual release setting. This includes algorithms for densest subgraph, maximum matching, as well as the first continual release k-core decomposition algorithm. We also develop a novel sparse level data structure for k-core decomposition that may be of independent interest. To complement our insertion-only algorithms, we conclude with polynomial additive error lower bounds for edge-privacy in the fully dynamic setting, where only logarithmic lower bounds were previously known.

RANDOM
On the Spectral Expansion of Monotone Subsets of the Hypercube

Authors: Yumou Fei and Renato Ferreira Pinto Jr.

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 353, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2025)


Abstract
We study the spectral gap of subgraphs of the hypercube induced by monotone subsets of vertices. For a monotone subset A ⊆ {0,1}ⁿ of density μ(A), the previous best lower bound on the spectral gap, due to Cohen [Cohen, 2016], was γ ≳ μ(A)/n², improving upon the earlier bound γ ≳ μ(A)²/n² established by Ding and Mossel [Ding and Mossel, 2014]. In this paper, we prove the optimal lower bound γ ≳ μ(A)/n. As a corollary, we improve the mixing time upper bound of the random walk on constant-density monotone sets from O(n³), as shown by Ding and Mossel, to O(n²). Along the way, we develop two new inequalities that may be of independent interest: (1) a directed L²-Poincaré inequality on the hypercube, and (2) an "approximate" FKG inequality for monotone sets.

Directed Hypercube Routing, a Generalized Lehman-Ron Theorem, and Monotonicity Testing

Authors: Deeparnab Chakrabarty and C. Seshadhri

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


Abstract
Motivated by applications to monotonicity testing, Lehman and Ron (JCTA, 2001) proved the existence of a collection of vertex disjoint paths between comparable sub-level sets in the directed hypercube. The main technical contribution of this paper is a new proof method that yields a generalization of their theorem: we prove the existence of two edge-disjoint collections of vertex disjoint paths. Our main conceptual contributions are conjectures on directed hypercube flows with simultaneous vertex and edge capacities of which our generalized Lehman-Ron theorem is a special case. We show that these conjectures imply directed isoperimetric theorems, and in particular, the robust directed Talagrand inequality due to Khot, Minzer, and Safra (SIAM J. on Comp, 2018). These isoperimetric inequalities, that relate the directed surface area (of a set in the hypercube) to its distance to monotonicity, have been crucial in obtaining the best monotonicity testers for Boolean functions. We believe our conjectures pave the way towards combinatorial proofs of these directed isoperimetry theorems.

New Direct Sum Tests

Authors: Alek Westover, Edward Yu, and Kai Zhe Zheng

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


Abstract
A function f:[n]^{d} → 𝔽₂ is a direct sum if there are functions L_i:[n] → 𝔽₂ such that f(x) = ∑_i L_i(x_i). In this work we give multiple results related to the property testing of direct sums. Our first result concerns a test proposed by Dinur and Golubev in [Dinur and Golubev, 2019]. We call their test the Diamond test and show that it is indeed a direct sum tester. More specifically, we show that if a function f is ε-far from being a direct sum function, then the Diamond test rejects f with probability at least Ω_{n,ε}(1). Even in the case of n = 2, the Diamond test is, to the best of our knowledge, novel and yields a new tester for the classic property of affinity. Apart from the Diamond test, we also analyze a broad family of direct sum tests, which at a high level, run an arbitrary affinity test on the restriction of f to a random hypercube inside of [n]^d. This family of tests includes the direct sum test analyzed in [Dinur and Golubev, 2019], but does not include the Diamond test. As an application of our result, we obtain a direct sum test which works in the online adversary model of [Iden Kalemaj et al., 2022]. Finally, we also discuss a Fourier analytic interpretation of the diamond tester in the n = 2 case, as well as prove local correction results for direct sum as conjectured by [Dinur and Golubev, 2019].

Online Versus Offline Adversaries in Property Testing

Authors: Esty Kelman, Ephraim Linder, and Sofya Raskhodnikova

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


Abstract
We study property testing with incomplete or noisy inputs. The models we consider allow for adversarial manipulation of the input, but differ in whether the manipulation can be done only offline, i.e., before the execution of the algorithm, or online, i.e., as the algorithm runs. The manipulations by an adversary can come in the form of erasures or corruptions. We compare the query complexity and the randomness complexity of property testing in the offline and online models. Kalemaj, Raskhodnikova, and Varma (Theory Comput. `23) provide properties that can be tested with a small number of queries with offline erasures, but cannot be tested at all with online erasures. We demonstrate that the two models are incomparable in terms of query complexity: we construct properties that can be tested with a constant number of queries in the online corruption model, but require querying a significant fraction of the input in the offline erasure model. We also construct properties that exhibit a strong separation between the randomness complexity of testing in the presence of offline and online adversaries: testing these properties in the online model requires exponentially more random bits than in the offline model, even when they are tested with nearly the same number of queries in both models. Our randomness separation relies on a novel reduction from randomness-efficient testers in the adversarial online model to query-efficient testers in the standard model.

Isoperimetric Inequalities for Real-Valued Functions with Applications to Monotonicity Testing

Authors: Hadley Black, Iden Kalemaj, and Sofya Raskhodnikova

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 261, 50th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2023)


Abstract
We generalize the celebrated isoperimetric inequality of Khot, Minzer, and Safra (SICOMP 2018) for Boolean functions to the case of real-valued functions f:{0,1}^d → ℝ. Our main tool in the proof of the generalized inequality is a new Boolean decomposition that represents every real-valued function f over an arbitrary partially ordered domain as a collection of Boolean functions over the same domain, roughly capturing the distance of f to monotonicity and the structure of violations of f to monotonicity. We apply our generalized isoperimetric inequality to improve algorithms for testing monotonicity and approximating the distance to monotonicity for real-valued functions. Our tester for monotonicity has query complexity Õ(min(r √d,d)), where r is the size of the image of the input function. (The best previously known tester makes O(d) queries, as shown by Chakrabarty and Seshadhri (STOC 2013).) Our tester is nonadaptive and has 1-sided error. We prove a matching lower bound for nonadaptive, 1-sided error testers for monotonicity. We also show that the distance to monotonicity of real-valued functions that are α-far from monotone can be approximated nonadaptively within a factor of O(√{d log d}) with query complexity polynomial in 1/α and the dimension d. This query complexity is known to be nearly optimal for nonadaptive algorithms even for the special case of Boolean functions. (The best previously known distance approximation algorithm for real-valued functions, by Fattal and Ron (TALG 2010) achieves O(d log r)-approximation.)

Triangle Counting with Local Edge Differential Privacy

Authors: Talya Eden, Quanquan C. Liu, Sofya Raskhodnikova, and Adam Smith

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 261, 50th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2023)


Abstract
Many deployments of differential privacy in industry are in the local model, where each party releases its private information via a differentially private randomizer. We study triangle counting in the noninteractive and interactive local model with edge differential privacy (that, intuitively, requires that the outputs of the algorithm on graphs that differ in one edge be indistinguishable). In this model, each party’s local view consists of the adjacency list of one vertex. In the noninteractive model, we prove that additive Ω(n²) error is necessary, where n is the number of nodes. This lower bound is our main technical contribution. It uses a reconstruction attack with a new class of linear queries and a novel mix-and-match strategy of running the local randomizers with different completions of their adjacency lists. It matches the additive error of the algorithm based on Randomized Response, proposed by Imola, Murakami and Chaudhuri (USENIX2021) and analyzed by Imola, Murakami and Chaudhuri (CCS2022) for constant ε. We use a different postprocessing of Randomized Response and provide tight bounds on the variance of the resulting algorithm. In the interactive setting, we prove a lower bound of Ω(n^{3/2}) on the additive error. Previously, no hardness results were known for interactive, edge-private algorithms in the local model, except for those that follow trivially from the results for the central model. Our work significantly improves on the state of the art in differentially private graph analysis in the local model.

Sublinear-Time Computation in the Presence of Online Erasures

Authors: Iden Kalemaj, Sofya Raskhodnikova, and Nithin Varma

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


Abstract
We initiate the study of sublinear-time algorithms that access their input via an online adversarial erasure oracle. After answering each query to the input object, such an oracle can erase t input values. Our goal is to understand the complexity of basic computational tasks in extremely adversarial situations, where the algorithm’s access to data is blocked during the execution of the algorithm in response to its actions. Specifically, we focus on property testing in the model with online erasures. We show that two fundamental properties of functions, linearity and quadraticity, can be tested for constant t with asymptotically the same complexity as in the standard property testing model. For linearity testing, we prove tight bounds in terms of t, showing that the query complexity is Θ(log t). In contrast to linearity and quadraticity, some other properties, including sortedness and the Lipschitz property of sequences, cannot be tested at all, even for t = 1. Our investigation leads to a deeper understanding of the structure of violations of linearity and other widely studied properties.
