Antichain with SAT and Tries

Authors: Lukáš Holík and Pavol Vargovčík

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 305, 27th International Conference on Theory and Applications of Satisfiability Testing (SAT 2024)

Abstract
We introduce a SAT-enabled version of an antichain algorithm for checking language emptiness of alternating finite automata (AFA) with complex transition relations encoded as compact logical formulae. The SAT solver is used to compute predecessors of AFA configurations, and at the same time, to evaluate the subsumption of newly found configurations in the antichain of the previously found ones. The algorithm could be naively implemented by an incremental SAT solver where the growing antichain is represented by adding new clauses. To make it efficient, we 1) force the SAT solver to prioritize largest/subsumption-strongest predecessors (so that weaker configurations are not even generated), and 2) store the antichain clauses in a special variant of a trie that allows fast subsumption testing. The experimental results suggest that the resulting emptiness checker is very efficient compared to the state of the art and that our techniques improve the performance of the SAT solver.

Polynomial-Time Pseudodeterministic Constructions (Invited Talk)

Authors: Igor C. Oliveira

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 289, 41st International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2024)

Abstract
A randomised algorithm for a search problem is pseudodeterministic if it produces a fixed canonical solution to the search problem with high probability. In their seminal work on the topic, Gat and Goldwasser (2011) posed as their main open problem whether prime numbers can be pseudodeterministically constructed in polynomial time. We provide a positive solution to this question in the infinitely-often regime. In more detail, we give an unconditional polynomial-time randomised algorithm B such that, for infinitely many values of n, B(1ⁿ) outputs a canonical n-bit prime p_n with high probability. More generally, we prove that for every dense property Q of strings that can be decided in polynomial time, there is an infinitely-often pseudodeterministic polynomial-time construction of strings satisfying Q. This improves upon a subexponential-time pseudodeterministic construction of Oliveira and Santhanam (2017). This talk will cover the main ideas behind these constructions and discuss their implications, such as the existence of infinitely many primes with succinct and efficient representations.

The Role of Local Algorithms in Privacy (Invited Talk)

Authors: Sofya Raskhodnikova

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 289, 41st International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2024)

Abstract
We will discuss research areas at the intersection of local algorithms and differential privacy. The main focus will be on using local Lipschitz filters to enable black-box differentially private queries to sensitive datasets. We will also cover new sublinear computational tasks arising in private data analysis. Finally, we will touch upon distributed models of privacy.

Structurally Tractable Graph Classes (Invited Talk)

Authors: Szymon Toruńczyk

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 289, 41st International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2024)

Abstract
Sparsity theory, initiated by Ossona de Mendez and Nešetřil, identifies those classes of sparse graphs that are tractable in various ways - algorithmically, combinatorially, and logically - as exactly the nowhere dense classes. An ongoing effort aims at generalizing sparsity theory to classes of graphs that are not necessarily sparse. Twin-width theory, developed by Bonnet, Thomassé and co-authors, is a step in that direction. A theory unifying the two is anticipated. It is conjectured that the relevant notion characterising dense graph classes that are tractable, generalising nowhere denseness and bounded twin-width, is the notion of a monadically dependent class, introduced by Shelah in model theory. I will survey the recent, rapid progress in the understanding of those classes, and of the related monadically stable classes. This development combines tools from structural graph theory, logic (finite and infinite model theory), and algorithms (parameterised algorithms and range search queries).

Max Weight Independent Set in Sparse Graphs with No Long Claws

Authors: Tara Abrishami, Maria Chudnovsky, Marcin Pilipczuk, and Paweł Rzążewski

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 289, 41st International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2024)

Abstract
We revisit the recent polynomial-time algorithm for the Max Weight Independent Set (MWIS) problem in bounded-degree graphs that do not contain a fixed graph whose every component is a subdivided claw as an induced subgraph [Abrishami, Chudnovsky, Dibek, Rzążewski, SODA 2022]. First, we show that with an arguably simpler approach we can obtain a faster algorithm with running time n^{𝒪(Δ²)}, where n is the number of vertices of the instance and Δ is the maximum degree. Then we combine our technique with known results concerning tree decompositions and provide a polynomial-time algorithm for MWIS in graphs excluding a fixed graph whose every component is a subdivided claw as an induced subgraph, and a fixed biclique as a subgraph.

Satisfiability of Context-Free String Constraints with Subword-Ordering and Transducers

Authors: C. Aiswarya, Soumodev Mal, and Prakash Saivasan

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 289, 41st International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2024)

Abstract
We study the satisfiability of string constraints where context-free membership constraints may be imposed on variables. Additionally a variable may be constrained to be a subword of a word obtained by shuffling variables and their transductions. The satisfiability problem is known to be undecidable even without rational transductions. It is known to be NExptime-complete without transductions, if the subword relations between variables do not have a cyclic dependency between them. We show that the satisfiability problem stays decidable in this fragment even when rational transductions are added. It is 2NExptime-complete with context-free membership, and NExptime-complete with only regular membership. For the lower bound we prove a technical lemma that is of independent interest: The length of the shortest word in the intersection of a pushdown automaton (of size 𝒪(n)) and n finite-state automata (each of size 𝒪(n)) can be double exponential in n.

On a Hierarchy of Spectral Invariants for Graphs

Authors: V. Arvind, Frank Fuhlbrück, Johannes Köbler, and Oleg Verbitsky

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 289, 41st International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2024)

Abstract
We consider a hierarchy of graph invariants that naturally extends the spectral invariants defined by Fürer (Lin. Alg. Appl. 2010) based on the angles formed by the set of standard basis vectors and their projections onto eigenspaces of the adjacency matrix. We provide a purely combinatorial characterization of this hierarchy in terms of the walk counts. This allows us to give a complete answer to Fürer’s question about the strength of his invariants in distinguishing non-isomorphic graphs in comparison to the 2-dimensional Weisfeiler-Leman algorithm, extending the recent work of Rattan and Seppelt (SODA 2023). As another application of the characterization, we prove that almost all graphs are determined up to isomorphism in terms of the spectrum and the angles, which is of interest in view of the long-standing open problem whether almost all graphs are determined by their eigenvalues alone. Finally, we describe the exact relationship between the hierarchy and the Weisfeiler-Leman algorithms for small dimensions, as also some other important spectral characteristics of a graph such as the generalized and the main spectra.

Computing Twin-Width Parameterized by the Feedback Edge Number

Authors: Jakub Balabán, Robert Ganian, and Mathis Rocton

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 289, 41st International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2024)

Abstract
The problem of whether and how one can compute the twin-width of a graph - along with an accompanying contraction sequence - lies at the forefront of the area of algorithmic model theory. While significant effort has been aimed at obtaining a fixed-parameter approximation for the problem when parameterized by twin-width, here we approach the question from a different perspective and consider whether one can obtain (near-)optimal contraction sequences under a larger parameterization, notably the feedback edge number k. As our main contributions, under this parameterization we obtain (1) a linear bikernel for the problem of either computing a 2-contraction sequence or determining that none exists and (2) an approximate fixed-parameter algorithm which computes an 𝓁-contraction sequence (for an arbitrary specified 𝓁) or determines that the twin-width of the input graph is at least 𝓁. These algorithmic results rely on newly obtained insights into the structure of optimal contraction sequences, and as a byproduct of these we also slightly tighten the bound on the twin-width of graphs with small feedback edge number.

Faster Graph Algorithms Through DAG Compression

Authors: Max Bannach, Florian Andreas Marwitz, and Till Tantau

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 289, 41st International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2024)

Abstract
The runtime of graph algorithms such as depth-first search or Dijkstra’s algorithm is dominated by the fact that all edges of the graph need to be processed at least once, leading to prohibitive runtimes for large, dense graphs. We introduce a simple data structure for storing graphs (and more general structures) in a compressed manner using directed acyclic graphs (dags). We then show that numerous standard graph problems can be solved in time linear in the size of the dag compression of a graph, rather than in the number of edges of the graph. Crucially, many dense graphs, including but not limited to graphs of bounded twinwidth, have a dag compression of size linear in the number of vertices rather than edges. This insight allows us to improve the previous best results for the runtime of standard algorithms from quasi-linear to linear for the large class of graphs of bounded twinwidth, which includes all cographs, graphs of bounded treewidth, or graphs of bounded cliquewidth.

Testing Equivalence to Design Polynomials

Authors: Omkar Baraskar, Agrim Dewan, and Chandan Saha

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 289, 41st International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2024)

Abstract
An n-variate polynomial g of degree d is a (n,d,t) design polynomial if the degree of the gcd of every pair of monomials of g is at most t-1. The power symmetric polynomial PSym_{n,d} : = ∑_{i = 1}ⁿ x^d_i and the sum-product polynomial SP_{s,d} : = ∑_{i = 1}^{s}∏_{j = 1}^{d} x_{i,j} are instances of design polynomials for t = 1. Another example is the Nisan-Wigderson design polynomial NW, which has been used extensively to prove various arithmetic circuit lower bounds. Given black-box access to an n-variate, degree-d polynomial f(𝐱) ∈ 𝔽[𝐱], how fast can we check if there exist an A ∈ GL(n, 𝔽) and a 𝐛 ∈ 𝔽ⁿ such that f(A𝐱+𝐛) is a (n,d,t) design polynomial? We call this problem "testing equivalence to design polynomials", or alternatively, "equivalence testing for design polynomials". In this work, we present a randomized algorithm that finds (A, 𝐛) such that f(A𝐱+𝐛) is a (n,d,t) design polynomial, if such A and 𝐛 exist, provided t ≤ d/3. The algorithm runs in (nd)^O(t) time and works over any sufficiently large 𝔽 of characteristic 0 or > d. As applications of this test, we show two results - one is structural and the other is algorithmic. The structural result establishes a polynomial-time equivalence between the graph isomorphism problem and the polynomial equivalence problem for design polynomials. The algorithmic result implies that Patarin’s scheme (EUROCRYPT 1996) can be broken in quasi-polynomial time if a random sparse polynomial is used in the key generation phase. We also give an efficient learning algorithm for n-variate random affine projections of multilinear degree-d design polynomials, provided n ≥ d⁴. If one obtains an analogous result under the weaker assumption "n ≥ d^ε, for any ε > 0", then the NW family is not VNP-complete unless there is a VNP-complete family whose random affine projections are learnable. It is not known if random affine projections of the permanent are learnable. The above algorithms are obtained by using the vector space decomposition framework, introduced by Kayal and Saha (STOC 2019) and Garg, Kayal and Saha (FOCS 2020), for learning non-degenerate arithmetic circuits. A key technical difference between the analysis in the papers by Garg, Kayal and Saha (FOCS 2020) and Bhargava, Garg, Kayal and Saha (RANDOM 2022) and the analysis here is that a certain adjoint algebra, which turned out to be trivial (i.e., diagonalizable) in prior works, is non-trivial in our case. However, we show that the adjoint arising here is triangularizable which then helps in carrying out the vector space decomposition step.

Expressive Quantale-Valued Logics for Coalgebras: An Adjunction-Based Approach

Authors: Harsh Beohar, Sebastian Gurke, Barbara König, Karla Messing, Jonas Forster, Lutz Schröder, and Paul Wild

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 289, 41st International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2024)

Abstract
We address the task of deriving fixpoint equations from modal logics characterizing behavioural equivalences and metrics (summarized under the term conformances). We rely on an earlier work that obtains Hennessy-Milner theorems as corollaries to a fixpoint preservation property along Galois connections between suitable lattices. We instantiate this to the setting of coalgebras, in which we spell out the compatibility property ensuring that we can derive a behaviour function whose greatest fixpoint coincides with the logical conformance. We then concentrate on the linear-time case, for which we study coalgebras based on the machine functor living in Eilenberg-Moore categories, a scenario for which we obtain a particularly simple logic and fixpoint equation. The theory is instantiated to concrete examples, both in the branching-time case (bisimilarity and behavioural metrics) and in the linear-time case (trace equivalences and trace distances).

A Characterization of Efficiently Compilable Constraint Languages

Authors: Christoph Berkholz, Stefan Mengel, and Hermann Wilhelm

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 289, 41st International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2024)

Abstract
A central task in knowledge compilation is to compile a CNF-SAT instance into a succinct representation format that allows efficient operations such as testing satisfiability, counting, or enumerating all solutions. Useful representation formats studied in this area range from ordered binary decision diagrams (OBDDs) to circuits in decomposable negation normal form (DNNFs). While it is known that there exist CNF formulas that require exponential size representations, the situation is less well studied for other types of constraints than Boolean disjunctive clauses. The constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) is a powerful framework that generalizes CNF-SAT by allowing arbitrary sets of constraints over any finite domain. The main goal of our work is to understand for which type of constraints (also called the constraint language) it is possible to efficiently compute representations of polynomial size. We answer this question completely and prove two tight characterizations of efficiently compilable constraint languages, depending on whether target format is structured. We first identify the combinatorial property of "strong blockwise decomposability" and show that if a constraint language has this property, we can compute DNNF representations of linear size. For all other constraint languages we construct families of CSP-instances that provably require DNNFs of exponential size. For a subclass of "strong uniformly blockwise decomposable" constraint languages we obtain a similar dichotomy for structured DNNFs. In fact, strong (uniform) blockwise decomposability even allows efficient compilation into multi-valued analogs of OBDDs and FBDDs, respectively. Thus, we get complete characterizations for all knowledge compilation classes between O(B)DDs and DNNFs.
