Faster Min-Cost Flow and Approximate Tree Decomposition on Bounded Treewidth Graphs

Authors: Sally Dong and Guanghao Ye

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 308, 32nd Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2024)

Abstract
We present an algorithm for min-cost flow in graphs with n vertices and m edges, given a tree decomposition of width τ and size S, and polynomially bounded, integral edge capacities and costs, running in Õ(m√{τ} + S) time. This improves upon the previous fastest algorithm in this setting achieved by the bounded-treewidth linear program solver of [Gu and Song, 2022; Dong et al., 2024], which runs in Õ(m τ^{(ω+1)/2}) time, where ω ≈ 2.37 is the matrix multiplication exponent. Our approach leverages recent advances in structured linear program solvers and robust interior point methods (IPM). In general graphs where treewidth is trivially bounded by n, the algorithm runs in Õ(m √ n) time, which is the best-known result without using the Lee-Sidford barrier or 𝓁₁ IPM, demonstrating the surprising power of robust interior point methods. As a corollary, we obtain a Õ(tw³ ⋅ m) time algorithm to compute a tree decomposition of width O(tw⋅ log(n)), given a graph with m edges.

An Adaptive Refinement Algorithm for Discretizations of Nonconvex QCQP

Authors: Akshay Gupte, Arie M. C. A. Koster, and Sascha Kuhnke

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 233, 20th International Symposium on Experimental Algorithms (SEA 2022)

Abstract
We present an iterative algorithm to compute feasible solutions in reasonable running time to quadratically constrained quadratic programs (QCQPs), which form a challenging class of nonconvex continuous optimization. This algorithm is based on a mixed-integer linear program (MILP) which is a restriction of the original QCQP obtained by discretizing all quadratic terms. In each iteration, this MILP restriction is solved to get a feasible QCQP solution. Since the quality of this solution heavily depends on the chosen discretization of the MILP, we iteratively adapt the discretization values based on the MILP solution of the previous iteration. To maintain a reasonable problem size in each iteration of the algorithm, the discretization sizes are fixed at predefined values. Although our algorithm did not always yield good feasible solutions on arbitrary QCQP instances, an extensive computational study on almost 1300 test instances of two different problem classes - box-constrained quadratic programs with complementarity constraints and disjoint bilinear programs, demonstrates the effectiveness of our approach. We compare the quality of our solutions against those from heuristics and local optimization algorithms in two state-of-the-art commercial solvers and observe that on one instance class we clearly outperform the other methods whereas on the other class we obtain competitive results.
