Constant Rate Isometric Embeddings of Hamming Metric into Edit Metric

Authors: Sudatta Bhattacharya, Sanjana Dey, Elazar Goldenberg, Mursalin Habib, Bernhard Haeupler, Karthik C. S., and Michal Koucký

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 374, 53rd International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2026)

Abstract
A function φ: {0,1}^n → {0,1}^N is called an isometric embedding of the n-dimensional Hamming metric space to the N-dimensional edit metric space if, for all x, y ∈ {0,1}ⁿ, the Hamming distance between x and y is equal to the edit distance between φ(x) and φ(y). The rate of such an embedding is defined as the ratio n/N. It is well known in the literature how to construct isometric embeddings with a rate of Ω(1/log n). However, achieving even near-isometric embeddings with a positive constant rate has remained elusive until now. In this paper, we present an isometric embedding with a rate of 1/8 by discovering connections to synchronization strings, which were studied in the context of insertion-deletion codes (Haeupler-Shahrasbi [JACM'21]). At a technical level, we introduce a framework for obtaining high-rate isometric embeddings using a novel object called a misaligner. We speculate that, with sufficient computational resources, our framework could potentially yield isometric embeddings with a rate of 1/5. As an immediate consequence of our constant rate isometric embedding, we improve known conditional lower bounds for the closest pair problem and the discrete 1-center problem in the edit metric and NP-hardness of approximation results for clustering problems and the Steiner tree problem in the edit metric, but now with optimal dependency on the dimension. Furthermore, we obtain optimal lower bounds for the gap edit distance problem in the two-player randomized communication complexity model. We complement our results by showing that no isometric embedding φ:{0,1}^n → {0,1}^N can have rate greater than 15/32 for all positive integers n. En route to proving this upper bound, we uncover fundamental structural properties necessary for every Hamming-to-edit isometric embedding. We also prove similar upper and lower bounds for embeddings over larger alphabets. Finally, we consider embeddings φ:Σ_in^n → Σ_out^N between different input and output alphabets, where the rate is given by (n log|Σ_in|)/(Nlog|Σ_out|). In this setting, we show that the rate can be made arbitrarily close to 1.

Asymmetric Streaming Approximate Pattern Matching

Authors: Wojciech Janczewski and Tatiana Starikovskaya

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 369, 37th Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2026)

Abstract
We study the space complexity of pattern matching in the asymmetric streaming model, focusing on approximate pattern matching under the Hamming and edit distances. In this problem, we are given an m-length pattern and an n-length text and must compute, for every position of the text, the smallest distance between the pattern and a substring of the text which ends at this position. In the asymmetric streaming model, we assume to have constant-time random access to the pattern, while the text arrives as a stream, one letter at a time. It is known that computing all distances exactly in the asymmetric streaming model requires Ω(m) space (for the edit distance see Li and Zheng [FSTTCS 2021]). Hence, to achieve sublinear space, a relaxation of the problem is necessary. One possible variant is to consider the small distance regime, where the algorithm must compute only those distances that are bounded by a small integer parameter k. In this case, existing algorithms in a more restrictive fully streaming model (Kociumaka, Clifford, Porat [SODA'19], Bhattacharya, Koucký [ICALP'23]) straightforwardly imply the existence of poly(k, log n)-space asymmetric streaming algorithms. Another possible relaxation is computing all distances approximately. For this variant, we don't have small-space algorithms in the fully streaming model: the best known algorithm solves pattern matching under the Hamming distance (1+ε)-approximately using 𝒪̃(ε^{-2}√m) space (Starikovskaya, Svagerka, Uznański [APPROX'20]). For the edit distance, no efficient approximation algorithms are known. In this work, we show approximation algorithms for pattern matching under the Hamming and edit distances in the asymmetric streaming model for any constant ε > 0: 1) We show that there is a simple randomised asymmetric streaming algorithm that solves approximate pattern matching under the Hamming distance (1+ε)-approximately using 𝒪(ε^{-3}log³n) bits. 2) As our second and main contribution, we extend the result of Cheng et al. [ICALP 2021] and show that for any integer k there is a deterministic asymmetric streaming algorithm that solves pattern matching under the edit distance (2^k-1+ε)-approximately using 𝒪̃(m^{1/k}) space.

The Communication Complexity of Pattern Matching with Edits Revisited

Authors: Tomasz Kociumaka, Jakob Nogler, and Philip Wellnitz

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 369, 37th Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2026)

Abstract
The decades-old Pattern Matching with Edits problem, given a length-n string T (the text), a length-m string P (the pattern), and a positive integer k (the threshold), asks to list the k-error occurrences of P in T, that is, all fragments of T whose edit distance to P is at most k. The one-way communication complexity of this problem is the minimum number of bits that Alice, given an instance (P,T,k) of the problem, must send to Bob so that Bob can reconstruct the answer solely from that message. In recent work [STOC'24], we showed that, in the natural parameter regime 0 < k < m < n/2, Ω(n/m ⋅ k log(m/k)) bits are necessary and 𝒪(n/m ⋅ k log² m) bits are sufficient for this problem. More generally, for strings over an alphabet Σ, we gave an 𝒪(n/m ⋅ k log m log(m|Σ|))-bit encoding that allows one to recover a shortest sequence of edits for every k-error occurrence of P in T. In this paper, we revisit the original proof and improve the encoding size to 𝒪(n/m ⋅ k log (m|Σ|/k)), which matches the lower bound for constant-sized alphabets. We further establish a new tight lower bound of Ω(n/m ⋅ k log(m|Σ|/k)) for the edit sequence reporting variant we solve. Our encoding size also matches the communication complexity established for the simpler Pattern Matching with Mismatches problem in the context of streaming algorithms [Clifford, Kociumaka, Porat; SODA'19].

Constant-Factor Approximations for Doubly Constrained Fair k-Center, k-Median and k-Means

Authors: Nicole Funk, Annika Hennes, Johanna Hillebrand, and Sarah Sturm

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 370, 20th Scandinavian Symposium on Algorithm Theory (SWAT 2026)

Abstract
We study discrete k-clustering problems in general metric spaces that are constrained by a combination of two different fairness conditions within the demographic fairness model. Given a metric space (P,d), where every point in P is equipped with a protected attribute, and a number k, the goal is to partition P into k clusters with a designated center each, such that a center-based objective function is minimized and the attributes are fairly distributed with respect to the following two fairness concepts: 1) group fairness: We aim for clusters with balanced numbers of attributes by specifying lower and upper bounds for the desired attribute proportions. 2) diverse center selection: Clusters have natural representatives, i.e., their centers. We ask for a balanced set of representatives by specifying the desired number of centers to choose from each attribute. Dickerson, Esmaeili, Morgenstern, and Pena [John P. Dickerson et al., 2023] denote the combination of these two constraints as doubly constrained fair clustering. They present algorithms whose guarantees depend on the best known approximation factors for either of these problems. Currently, this implies an 8-approximation with a small additive violation on the group fairness constraint. For k-center, we improve this approximation factor to 4 with a small additive violation. This guarantee also depends on the currently best algorithm for DS-fair k-center given by Jones, Nguyen and Nguyen [Matthew Jones et al., 2020]. For k-median and k-means, we propose the first constant-factor approximation algorithms. Our algorithms transform a solution that satisfies diverse center selection into a doubly constrained fair clustering using an LP-based approach. Furthermore, our results are generalizable to other center-selection constraints, such as matroid k-clustering and knapsack constraints.

On Fréchet Traveling Salesmen Problems

Authors: Omrit Filtser, Tzalik Maimon, and Michal Moiseev

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 370, 20th Scandinavian Symposium on Algorithm Theory (SWAT 2026)

Abstract
The Fréchet distance is a well-studied distance measure between two curves. In this work, we demonstrate that the merit of Fréchet distance extends beyond evaluating similarity, and introduce a new setting in which it proves useful. Consider a situation where two agents are required to visit a given set of sites, while staying close to each other throughout their traversal. In this paper, we study problems where the goal is to construct two curves whose vertices are from a given set of points, under the constraint that the Fréchet distance between the curves is kept as small as possible. This problem can be viewed as a variant of the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP), and thus may be of interest in routing, network planning and more. We present a near-linear algorithm for this problem under the discrete Fréchet distance, and explore several variants of the problem, including minimizing the lengths of the curves and balancing the number of sites assigned to each agent. Lastly, we prove that the problem is NP-hard under the continuous Fréchet Distance.

Can We Watermark Low-Entropy LLM Outputs?

Authors: Noam Mazor, Andrew Morgan, and Rafael Pass

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 368, 7th Symposium on Foundations of Responsible Computing (FORC 2026)

Abstract
A recent and exciting thread of work focuses on developing methods for watermarking the output of large language models (LLMs). We focus on provably undetectable watermarking - that is, schemes that do not alter the output distribution of the LLM, yet enable embedding a watermark in the output that identifies the output as having been generated by the particular LLM. Furthermore, the watermark should be hard to remove by an adversary that may potentially edit, insert, or delete tokens from the watermarked output. Indeed, recent work (Christ et al. [COLT'24], Christ et al. [CRYPTO’24], Golowich et al. [NeuroIPS’24]) shows how to develop such schemes that are robust against a constant fraction of substitutions, or even against a constant fraction of arbitrary edits. These works, however, make strong assumptions on the amount of entropy present in the output of the LLM. Most notably, they all require constant entropy rate - that is, a constant fraction of the tokens in a sufficiently long substring of the output need to have empirical entropy at least O(log |T|), where T is the alphabet of tokens, and Golowich et al. additionally require T to be larger than the security parameter. In this work, we consider the question of whether we can also watermark the outputs of LLMs when the per-token entropy is just a constant, discarding the dependence on the alphabet size or security parameter. In this regime, we construct: - A watermarking scheme robust against random substitutions (assuming subexponential LPN, as in Christ et al. [CRYPTO’24]) - A watermarking scheme robust against random substitutions and random deletions, given either the additional heuristic assumption that the output of the LLM only introduces random errors (analogous to the assumption made by Christ et al. [CRYPTO’24]) or a construction of a pseudorandom error-correcting code robust to adversarial substitutions and random deletions.

Fréchet Distance in the Imbalanced Case

Authors: Lotte Blank

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 367, 42nd International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2026)

Abstract
Given two polygonal curves P and Q defined by n and m vertices with m ≤ n, we show that the discrete Fréchet distance in 1D cannot be approximated within a factor of 2-ε in 𝒪((nm)^{1-δ}) time for any ε, δ > 0 unless OVH fails. Using a similar construction, we extend this bound for curves in 2D under the continuous or discrete Fréchet distance and increase the approximation factor to 1+√2-ε (resp. 3-ε) if the curves lie in the Euclidean space (resp. in the L_∞-space). This strengthens the lower bound by Buchin, Ophelders, and Speckmann to the case where m = n^α for α ∈ (0,1) and increases the approximation factor of 1.001 by Bringmann. For the discrete Fréchet distance in 1D, we provide an approximation algorithm with optimal approximation factor and almost optimal running time. Further, for curves in any dimension embedded in any L_p space, we present a (3+ε)-approximation algorithm for the continuous and discrete Fréchet distance using 𝒪((n+m²)log n) time, which almost matches the approximation factor of the lower bound for the L_∞ metric.

Almost-Optimal Upper and Lower Bounds for Clustering in Low Dimensional Euclidean Spaces

Authors: Vincent Cohen-Addad, Karthik C. S., David Saulpic, and Chris Schwiegelshohn

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 367, 42nd International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2026)

Abstract
The k-median and k-means clustering objectives are classic objectives for modeling clustering in a metric space. Given a set of points in a metric space, the goal of the k-median (resp. k-means) problem is to find k representative points so as to minimize the sum of the distances (resp. sum of squared distances) from each point to its closest representative. Cohen-Addad, Feldmann, and Saulpic [JACM'21] showed how to obtain a (1+ε)-factor approximation in low-dimensional Euclidean metric for both the k-median and k-means problems in near-linear time 2^{(1/ε)^O(d²)} n ⋅ polylog(n) (where d is the dimension and n is the number of input points). We improve this running time to 2^{O(1/ε)^{d-1}} ⋅ n ⋅ polylog(n), and show an almost matching lower bound: under the Gap Exponential Time Hypothesis for 3-SAT, there is no 2^o(1/ε^{d-1}) n^O(1) algorithm achieving a (1+ε)-approximation for k-means.

Fully Dynamic Spectral Sparsification for Directed Hypergraphs

Authors: Sebastian Forster, Gramoz Goranci, and Ali Momeni

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 364, 43rd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2026)

Abstract
There has been a surge of interest in spectral hypergraph sparsification, a natural generalization of spectral sparsification for graphs. In this paper, we present a simple fully dynamic algorithm for maintaining spectral hypergraph sparsifiers of directed hypergraphs. Our algorithm achieves a near-optimal size of O(n² / ε ² log ⁷ m) and amortized update time of O(r² log ³ m), where n is the number of vertices, and m and r respectively upper bound the number of hyperedges and the rank of the hypergraph at any time. We also extend our approach to the parallel batch-dynamic setting, where a batch of any k hyperedge insertions or deletions can be processed with O(kr² log ³ m) amortized work and O(log ² m) depth. This constitutes the first spectral-based sparsification algorithm in this setting.

Broadcast in Almost Mixing Time

Authors: Anton Paramonov and Roger Wattenhofer

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 364, 43rd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2026)

Abstract
We study the problem of broadcasting multiple messages in the CONGEST model. In this problem, a dedicated source node s possesses a set M of messages with every message of size O(log n) where n is the total number of nodes. The objective is to ensure that every node in the network learns all messages in M. The execution of an algorithm progresses in rounds, and we focus on optimizing the round complexity of broadcasting multiple messages. Our primary contribution is a randomized algorithm for networks with expander topology. The algorithm succeeds with high probability and achieves a round complexity that is optimal up to a factor of the network’s mixing time and polylogarithmic terms. It leverages a multi-COBRA primitive, which uses multiple branching random walks running in parallel. A crucial aspect of our method is the use of these branching random walks to construct an optimal (up to a polylogarithmic factor) tree packing of a random graph, which is then used for efficient broadcasting. We also prove the problem to be NP-hard in a centralized setting and provide insights into why lower bounds that can be matched in expanders, namely graph diameter and |M|/minCut, cannot be tight in general graphs.

On the Complexity of Computing Strahler Numbers

Authors: Moses Ganardi and Markus Lohrey

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 364, 43rd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2026)

Abstract
It is shown that the problem of computing the Strahler number of a binary tree given as a term is complete for the circuit complexity class uniform NC¹. For several variants, where the binary tree is given by a pointer structure or in a succinct form by a directed acyclic graph or a tree straight-line program, the complexity of computing the Strahler number is determined as well. The problem, whether a given context-free grammar in Chomsky normal form produces a derivation tree (resp., an acyclic derivation tree), whose Strahler number is at least a given number k is shown to be P-complete (resp., PSPACE-complete).

Supercritical Tradeoff Between Size and Depth for Resolution over Parities

Authors: Dmitry Itsykson and Alexander Knop

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 362, 17th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2026)

Abstract
Alekseev and Itsykson (STOC 2025) proved the existence of an unsatisfiable CNF formula such that any resolution over parities (Res(⊕)) refutation must either have exponential size (in the formula size) or superlinear depth (in the number of variables). In this paper, we extend this result by constructing a formula with the same hardness properties, but which additionally admits a resolution refutation of quasi-polynomial size. This establishes a supercritical tradeoff between size and depth for resolution over parities. The proof builds on the framework of Alekseev and Itsykson and relies on a lifting argument applied to the supercritical tradeoff between width and depth in resolution, proposed by Buss and Thapen (IPL 2026).

FPT Approximations for Connected Maximum Coverage

Authors: Tanmay Inamdar, Satyabrata Jana, Madhumita Kundu, Daniel Lokshtanov, Saket Saurabh, and Meirav Zehavi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 362, 17th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2026)

Abstract
We revisit connectivity-constrained coverage through a unifying model, Partial Connected Red-Blue Dominating Set (PartialConRBDS). Given a bipartite graph G = (R∪ B,E) with red vertices R and blue vertices B, an auxiliary connectivity graph G_{conn} on R, and integers k,t, the task is to find a set S ⊆ R with |S| ≤ k such that G_{conn}[S] is connected and S dominates at least t blue vertices. This formulation captures connected variants of Maximum Coverage [Hochbaum-Rao, Inf. Proc. Lett., 2020; D'Angelo-Delfaraz, AAMAS 2025], Partial Vertex Cover, and Partial Dominating Set [Khuller et al., SODA 2014; Lamprou et al., TCS 2021] via standard encodings. Limits to parameterized tractability. PartialConRBDS is W[1]-hard parameterized by k even under strong restrictions: it remains hard when G_{conn} is a clique or a star and the incidence graph G is 3-degenerate, or when G is K_{2,2}-free. Inapproximability. For every ε > 0, there is no polynomial-time (1, 1-1/e+ε)-approximation unless 𝖯 = NP. Moreover, under ETH, no algorithm running in f(k)⋅ n^{o(k)} time achieves an g(k)-approximation for k for any computable function g(⋅), or for any ε > 0, a (1-1/e+ε)-approximation for t. Graphical special cases. Partial Connected Dominating Set is W[2]-hard parameterized by k and inherits the same ETH-based f(k)⋅ n^{o(k)} inapproximability bound as above; Partial Connected Vertex Cover is W[1]-hard parameterized by k. These hardness boundaries delineate a natural "sweet spot" for study: within appropriate structural restrictions on the incidence graph, one can still aim for fine-grained (FPT) approximations. Our algorithms. We solve PartialConRBDS exactly by reducing it to Relaxed Directed Steiner Out-Tree in time (2e)^t ⋅ n^{𝒪(1)}. For biclique-free incidences (i.e., when G excludes K_{d,d} as an induced subgraph), we obtain two complementary parameterized schemes: - An Efficient Parameterized Approximation Scheme (EPAS) running in time 2^{𝒪(k² d/ε)}⋅ n^{𝒪(1)} that either returns a connected solution of size at most k covering at least (1-ε)t blue vertices, or correctly reports that no connected size-k solution covers t; and - A Parameterized Approximation Scheme (PAS) running in time 2^{𝒪(kd(k²+log d))}⋅ n^{𝒪(1/ε)} that either returns a connected solution of size at most (1+ε)k covering at least t blue vertices, or correctly reports that no connected size-k solution covers t. Together, these results chart the boundary between hardness and FPT-approximability for connectivity-constrained coverage.

Range Avoidance and Remote Point: New Algorithms and Hardness

Authors: Shengtang Huang, Xin Li, and Yan Zhong

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 362, 17th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2026)

Abstract
The Range Avoidance (Avoid) problem C-Avoid[n,m(n)] asks that, given a circuit in a class C with input length n and output length m(n) > n, find a string not in the range of the circuit. This problem has been a central piece in several recent frameworks for proving circuit lower bounds and constructing explicit combinatorial objects. Previous work by Korten (FOCS' 21) and by Ren, Santhanam, and Wang (FOCS' 22) showed that algorithms for Avoid are closely related to circuit lower bounds. In particular, Korten’s work reinterpreted an earlier result from bounded arithmetic, originally proved by Jeřábek (Ann. Pure Appl. Log. 2004), as an equivalence in computational complexity between the existence of FP^NP algorithms for the general Avoid problem and 2^{Ω(n)} lower bounds against general Boolean circuits for the class 𝐄^NP. In this work, we significantly complement these works by generalizing the equivalence result to restricted circuit classes and obtain the following: - For any constant depth unbounded fan-in circuit class C ⊇ AC⁰, there is an FP^NP algorithm for C-Avoid[n,n^{1+ε}] (for any constant ε > 0) if and only if 𝐄^NP cannot be computed by C circuits of size 2^{o(n)}. This addresses an open problem by Korten (Bulletin of EATCS' 25). - If 𝐄^NP cannot be computed by o(2ⁿ/n) size formulas, then there is an FP^NP algorithm for NC⁰-Avoid[n,2n]. Note that by an extension of Ren, Santhanam, and Wang (FOCS' 22), an FP^NP algorithm for NC⁰₄-Avoid[n,n+n^δ] for any constant δ ∈ (0,1) implies 𝐄^NP cannot be computed by o(2ⁿ/n) size formulas. These results yield the first characterizations of FP^NP C-Avoid algorithms for low-complexity circuit classes such as AC⁰. We also consider the average-case analog of Avoid, the Remote Point (Remote-Point) problem, and establish: - For some suitable function c(n) and constant γ > 0, there is an FP^NP algorithm for Remote-Point[n,n^{6+γ},c(O_{γ}(log n))] if and only if 𝐄^NP cannot be (1/2-c(n))-approximated by circuits of size 2^{o(n)}. Finally, we also present two improved algorithms for NC⁰-Avoid: - A family of 2^{n^{1 - ε/(k-1) +o(1)}} time algorithms for NC⁰_k-Avoid[n,n^{1+ε}] for any ε > 0, exhibiting the first subexponential-time algorithm for any super-linear stretch. - Faster local algorithms for NC⁰_k-Avoid[n,n+1] running in time O(n2^{(k-2)/(k-1) n}), improving the naive 2ⁿ⋅ poly(n) bound.

Total Search Problems in ZPP

Authors: Noah Fleming, Stefan Grosser, Siddhartha Jain, Jiawei Li, Hanlin Ren, Morgan Shirley, and Weiqiang Yuan

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 362, 17th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2026)

Abstract
We initiate a systematic study of TFZPP, the class of total NP search problems solvable by polynomial time randomized algorithms. TFZPP contains a variety of important search problems such as Bertrand-Chebyshev (finding a prime between N and 2N), refuter problems for many circuit lower bounds, and Lossy-Code. The Lossy-Code problem has found prominence due to its fundamental connections to derandomization, catalytic computing, and the metamathematics of complexity theory, among other areas. While TFZPP collapses to FP under standard derandomization assumptions in the white-box setting, we are able to separate TFZPP from the major TFNP subclasses in the black-box setting. In fact, we are able to separate it from every uniform TFNP class assuming that NP is not in quasi-polynomial time. To do so, we extend the connection between proof complexity and black-box TFNP to randomized proof systems and randomized reductions. Next, we turn to developing a taxonomy of TFZPP problems. We highlight a problem called Nephew, originating from an infinity axiom in set theory. We show that Nephew is in PWPP∩ TFZPP and conjecture that it is not reducible to Lossy-Code. Intriguingly, except for some artificial examples, most other black-box TFZPP problems that we are aware of reduce to Lossy-Code: - We define a problem called Empty-Child capturing finding a leaf in a rooted (binary) tree, and show that this problem is equivalent to Lossy-Code. We also show that a variant of Empty-Child with "heights" is complete for the intersection of SOPL and Lossy-Code. - We strengthen Lossy-Code with several combinatorial inequalities such as the AM-GM inequality. Somewhat surprisingly, we show the resulting new problems are still reducible to Lossy-Code. A technical highlight of this result is that they are proved by formalizations in bounded arithmetic, specifically in Jeřábek’s theory APC₁ (JSL 2007). - Finally, we show that the Dense-Linear-Ordering problem reduces to Lossy-Code.
