Computing Tarski Fixed Points in Financial Networks

Authors: Leander Besting, Martin Hoefer, and Lars Huth

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

Abstract
Modern financial networks are highly connected and result in complex interdependencies of the involved institutions. In the prominent Eisenberg-Noe model [Eisenberg and Noe, 2001], a fundamental aspect is clearing - to determine the amount of assets available to each financial institution in the presence of potential defaults and bankruptcy. A clearing state represents a fixed point that satisfies a set of natural axioms. Existence can be established (even in broad generalizations of the model) using Tarski’s theorem. While a maximal fixed point can be computed in polynomial time, the complexity of computing other fixed points is open. In this paper, we provide an efficient algorithm to compute a minimal fixed point. Our algorithm applies in a broad generalization of the Eisenberg-Noe model with any monotone, piecewise-linear payment functions and default costs. We also study claims trading, a local network adjustment to improve clearing, when networks are evaluated with minimal clearing. We provide an efficient algorithm to decide existence of Pareto-improving trades and compute optimal ones if they exist.

Fault-Tolerant Approximate Distance Oracles with a Source Set

Authors: Dipan Dey and Telikepalli Kavitha

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

Abstract
Our input is an undirected weighted graph G = (V,E) on n vertices along with a source set S ⊆ V. The problem is to preprocess G and build a compact data structure such that upon query Qu(s,v,f) where (s,v) ∈ S×V and f is any faulty edge, we can quickly find a good estimate (i.e., within a small multiplicative stretch) of the s-v distance in G-f. We use a fault-tolerant ST-distance oracle from the work of Bilò et al. (STACS 2018) to construct an S×V approximate distance oracle or sourcewise approximate distance oracle of size Õ(|S|n + n^{3/2}) with multiplicative stretch at most 5. We construct another fault-tolerant sourcewise approximate distance oracle of size Õ(|S|n + n^{4/3}) with multiplicative stretch at most 13. Both the oracles have O(1) query answering time.

New Approximate Distance Oracles and Their Applications

Authors: Avi Kadria and Liam Roditty

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 359, 36th International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2025)

Abstract
Let G = (V, E) be an undirected graph with n vertices and m edges, and let μ = m/n. A distance oracle is a data structure designed to answer approximate distance queries, with the goal of achieving low stretch, efficient space usage, and fast query time. While much of the prior work focused on distance oracles with constant query time, this paper presents a comprehensive study of distance oracles with non-constant query time. We explore the tradeoffs between space, stretch, and query time of distance oracles in various regimes. Specifically, we consider both weighted and unweighted graphs in the regimes of stretch < 2 and stretch ≥ 2. In addition, we demonstrate several applications of our new distance oracles to the n-Pairs Shortest Paths (n-PSP) problem and the All Nodes Shortest Cycles (ANSC) problem. Our main contributions are: - Weighted graphs: We present a new three-way trade-off between stretch, space, and query time, offering a natural extension of the classical Thorup–Zwick distance oracle [STOC’01 and JACM’05] to regimes with larger query time. Specifically, for any 0 < r < 1/2 and integer k ≥ 1, we construct a (2k(1 - 2r) - 1)-stretch distance oracle with Õ(m + n^{1 + 1/k}) space and Õ(μ n^r) query time. This construction provides an asymptotic improvement over the classical (2k - 1)-stretch and O(n^{1 + 1/k})-space tradeoff of Thorup and Zwick in sparse graphs, at the cost of increased query time. We also improve upon a result of Dalirrooyfard et al. [FOCS’22], who presented a (2k - 2)-stretch distance oracle with O(m + n^{1 + 1/k}) space and O(μ n^{1/k}) query time. In our oracle we reduce the stretch from (2k - 2) to (2k - 5) while preserving the same space and query time. - Unweighted graphs: We present a (2k - 5, 4 + 2_{odd})-approximation distance oracle with O(n^{1 + 1/k}) space and O(n^{1/k}) query time. This improves upon a (2k - 2, 2_{odd})-approximation distance oracle of Dalirrooyfard et al. [FOCS’22] while maintaining the same space and query time. We also present a distance oracle that given u,v ∈ V returns an estimate d̂(u,v) ≤ d(u,v) + 2⌈ d(u,v) / 3 ⌉ + 2, using O(n^{4/3 + 2ε}) space and O(n^{1 - 3ε}) query time. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first distance oracle that simultaneously achieves a multiplicative stretch < 2, and a space complexity O(n^{1.5 - α}), for some α > 0. - Applications for n-PSP and ANSC: We present an Õ(m^{1 - 1/(k+1)} n)-time algorithm for the n-PSP problem, that for every input pair ⟨s_i,t_i⟩, where i ∈ [n], returns an estimate d̂(s_i, t_i) such that d̂(s_i,t_i) ≤ d(s_i,t_i) + 2⌈d(s_i,t_i)/2k⌉. By allowing a small additive error, this result circumvents the conditional running time lower bound of Ω(m^{2 - 2/(k+1)} ⋅ n^{1/(k+1) - o(1)}), established by Dalirrooyfard et al. [FOCS’22] for achieving (1 + 1/k)-stretch. Additionally, we present an Õ(mn^{1 - 1/k})-time algorithm for the ANSC problem that computes, for every u ∈ V, an estimate ĉ_u such that ĉ_u ≤ SC(u) + 2⌈SC(u)/2(k - 1)⌉, where SC(u) denotes the length of the shortest cycle containing u. This improves upon the Õ(m^{2 - 2/k}n^{1/k})-time algorithm of Dalirrooyfard et al. [FOCS'22], while achieving the same approximation guarantee. We obtain our results by developing several new techniques, among them are the borderline vertices technique and the middle vertex technique, which may be of independent interest.

Faster Algorithm for Second (s,t)-Mincut and Breaking Quadratic Barrier for Dual Edge Sensitivity for (s,t)-Mincut

Authors: Surender Baswana, Koustav Bhanja, and Anupam Roy

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

Abstract
Let G be a directed graph on n vertices and m edges. In this article, we study (s,t)-cuts of second minimum capacity and present the following algorithmic and graph-theoretic results. 1) Second (s,t)-mincut: Vazirani and Yannakakis [ICALP 1992] designed the first algorithm for computing an (s,t)-cut of second minimum capacity using {O}(n²) maximum (s,t)-flow computations. We present the following algorithm that improves the running time significantly. For directed integer-weighted graphs, there is an algorithm that can compute an (s,t)-cut of second minimum capacity using Õ(√n) maximum (s,t)-flow computations with high probability. To achieve this result, a close relationship of independent interest is established between (s,t)-cuts of second minimum capacity and global mincuts in directed weighted graphs. 2) Minimum+1 (s,t)-cuts: Minimum+1 (s,t)-cuts have been studied quite well recently [Baswana, Bhanja, and Pandey, ICALP 2022 & TALG 2023], which is a special case of second (s,t)-mincut. We present the following structural result and the first nontrivial algorithm for minimum+1 (s,t)-cuts. 3) Algorithm: For directed multi-graphs, we design an algorithm that, given any maximum (s,t)-flow, computes a minimum+1 (s,t)-cut, if it exists, in O(m) time. 4) Structure: The existing structures for storing and characterizing all minimum+1 (s,t)-cuts occupy {O}(mn) space [Baswana, Bhanja, and Pandey, TALG 2023]. For undirected multi-graphs, we design a directed acyclic graph (DAG) occupying only {O}(m) space that stores and characterizes all minimum+1 (s,t)-cuts. This matches the space bound of the widely-known DAG structure for all (s,t)-mincuts [Picard and Queyranne, Math. Prog. Studies 1980]. 5) Dual Edge Sensitivity Oracle: The study of minimum+1 (s,t)-cuts often turns out to be useful in designing dual edge sensitivity oracles - a compact data structure for efficiently reporting an (s,t)-mincut after insertion/failure of any given pair of query edges. It has been shown recently [Bhanja, ICALP 2025] that any dual edge sensitivity oracle for (s,t)-mincut in undirected multi-graphs must occupy Ω(n²) space in the worst-case irrespective of the query time. Interestingly, for undirected unweighted simple graphs, we break this quadratic barrier while achieving a non-trivial query time as follows. There is an O(n√n) space data structure that can report an (s,t)-mincut in O(min{m,n√n}) time after the insertion/failure of any given pair of query edges. To arrive at our results, as one of our key techniques, we establish interesting relationships between (s,t)-cuts of capacity (minimum+Δ), Δ ≥ 0, and maximum (s,t)-flow. We believe that these techniques and the graph-theoretic result in 2.(b) are of independent interest.

Minimum+1 Steiner Cut and Dual Edge Sensitivity Oracle: Bridging Gap between Global and (s,t)-cut

Authors: Koustav Bhanja

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 334, 52nd International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2025)

Abstract
Let G = (V,E) be an undirected multi-graph on n = |V| vertices and S ⊆ V be a Steiner set in G. Steiner cut is a fundamental concept; moreover, global cut (|S| = n), as well as (s,t)-cut (|S| = 2), is just a special case of Steiner cut. We study Steiner cuts of capacity minimum+1, and as an important application, we provide a dual edge Sensitivity Oracle for Steiner mincut - a compact data structure for efficiently reporting a Steiner mincut after failure/insertion of any pair of edges. A compact data structure for cuts of capacity minimum+1 has been designed for both global cuts [Dinitz and Nutov, STOC 1995] and (s,t)-cuts [Baswana, Bhanja, and Pandey, ICALP 2022 & TALG 2023]. Moreover, both data structures are also used crucially to design a dual edge Sensitivity Oracle for their respective mincuts. Unfortunately, except for these two extreme scenarios of Steiner cuts, no generalization of these results is known. Therefore, to address this gap, we present the following first results on Steiner cuts for any S satisfying 2 ≤ |S| ≤ n. 1) Data Structure for Minimum+1 Steiner Cut: There is an {O}(n(n-|S|+1)) space data structure that, given any pair of vertices u,v, can determine in {O}(1) time whether the Steiner cut of the least capacity separating u and v has capacity minimum+1. It can report such a cut, if it exists, in {O}(n) time, which is worst-case optimal. 2) Dual Edge Sensitivity Oracle: We design the following pair of data structures. (a) There is an {O}(n(n-|S|+1)) space data structure that, after the failure or insertion of any pair of edges in G, can report the capacity of Steiner mincut in {O}(1) time and a Steiner mincut in {O}(n) time, which is worst-case optimal. (b) If we are interested in reporting only the capacity of Steiner mincut, there is a more compact data structure that occupies {O}((n-|S|)²+n) space and can report the capacity of Steiner mincut in {O}(1) time after the failure or insertion of any pair of edges. 3) Lower Bound for Sensitivity Oracle: For undirected multi-graphs, for any Steiner set S ⊆ V, any data structure that, after the failure or insertion of any pair of edges, can report the capacity of Steiner mincut must occupy Ω((n-|S|)²) bits of space in the worst case, irrespective of the query time. To arrive at our results, we provide several techniques, especially a generalization of the 3-Star Lemma given by Dinitz and Vainshtein [SICOMP 2000], which is of independent interest. Our results achieve the same space and time bounds of the existing results for the two extreme scenarios of Steiner cuts - global and (s,t)-cut. In addition, the space occupied by our data structures in (1) and (2) reduces as |S| tends to n. Also, they occupy subquadratic space if |S| is close to n.

A Deterministic Approach to Shortest Path Restoration in Edge Faulty Graphs

Authors: Keerti Choudhary and Rishabh Dhiman

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 327, 42nd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2025)

Abstract
Afek, Bremler-Barr, Kaplan, Cohen, and Merritt (PODC'01) in their seminal work on shortest path restorations demonstrated that after a single edge failure in a graph G, a replacement shortest path between any two vertices s and t, which avoids the failed edge, can be represented as the concatenation of two original shortest paths in G. They also showed that we cannot associate a canonical shortest path between the vertex pairs in G that consistently allows for the replacement path (in the surviving graph) to be represented as a concatenation of these canonical paths. Recently, Bodwin and Parter (PODC'21) proposed a randomized tie-breaking scheme for selecting canonical paths for the "ordered" vertex pairs in graph G with the desired property of representing the replacement shortest path as a concatenation of canonical shortest-paths provided for ordered pairs. An interesting open question is whether it is possible to provide a deterministic construction of canonical paths in an efficient manner. We address this question in our paper by presenting an O(mn) time deterministic algorithm to compute a canonical path family ℱ = {P_{x,y}, Q_{x,y} | x,y ∈ V} comprising of two paths per (unordered) vertex pair. Each replacement is either a PQ-path (of type P_{x,y}∘Q_{y,z}), a QP-path, a QQ-path, or a PP-path. Our construction is fairly simple and is a straightforward application of independent spanning trees. We also present various applications of family ℱ in computing fault-tolerant structures.

Fault-Tolerant ST-Diameter Oracles

Authors: Davide Bilò, Keerti Choudhary, Sarel Cohen, Tobias Friedrich, Simon Krogmann, and Martin Schirneck

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

Abstract
We study the problem of estimating the ST-diameter of a graph that is subject to a bounded number of edge failures. An f-edge fault-tolerant ST-diameter oracle (f-FDO-ST) is a data structure that preprocesses a given graph G, two sets of vertices S,T, and positive integer f. When queried with a set F of at most f edges, the oracle returns an estimate D̂ of the ST-diameter diam(G-F,S,T), the maximum distance between vertices in S and T in G-F. The oracle has stretch σ ⩾ 1 if diam(G-F,S,T) ⩽ D̂ ⩽ σ diam(G-F,S,T). If S and T both contain all vertices, the data structure is called an f-edge fault-tolerant diameter oracle (f-FDO). An f-edge fault-tolerant distance sensitivity oracles (f-DSO) estimates the pairwise graph distances under up to f failures. We design new f-FDOs and f-FDO-STs by reducing their construction to that of all-pairs and single-source f-DSOs. We obtain several new tradeoffs between the size of the data structure, stretch guarantee, query and preprocessing times for diameter oracles by combining our black-box reductions with known results from the literature. We also provide an information-theoretic lower bound on the space requirement of approximate f-FDOs. We show that there exists a family of graphs for which any f-FDO with sensitivity f ⩾ 2 and stretch less than 5/3 requires Ω(n^{3/2}) bits of space, regardless of the query time.

An estimated 30% of urban traffic is caused by search for parking spots [Shoup, 2005]. Suggesting routes along highly probable parking spots could reduce traffic. In this paper, we formalize parking search as a probabilistic problem on a road graph and show that it is NP-complete. We explore heuristics that optimize for the driving duration and the walking distance to the destination. Routes are constrained to reach a certain probability threshold of finding a spot. Empirically estimated probabilities of successful parking attempts are provided by TomTom on a per-street basis. We release these probabilities as a dataset of about 80,000 roads covering the Berlin area. This allows to evaluate parking search algorithms on a real road network with realistic probabilities for the first time. However, for many other areas, parking probabilities are not openly available. Because they are effortful to collect, we propose an algorithm that relies on conventional road attributes only. Our experiments show that this algorithm comes close to the baseline by a factor of 1.3 in our cost measure. This leads to the conclusion that conventional road attributes may be sufficient to compute reasonably good parking search routes.
