Towards a Theory of Algorithmic Proof Complexity (Invited Talk)

Authors: Albert Atserias

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 229, 49th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2022)

Abstract
A possibly unexpected by-product of the mathematical study of the lengths of proofs, as is done in the field of propositional proof complexity, is, I claim, that it may lead to new polynomial-time algorithms. To explain this, I will first recall the origins of proof complexity as a field, and then explain why some of the recent progress in it could lead to some new algorithms.

Equilibrium Computation, Deep Learning, and Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning (Invited Talk)

Authors: Constantinos Daskalakis

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 229, 49th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2022)

Abstract
Machine Learning has recently made significant advances in challenges such as speech and image recognition, automatic translation, and text generation, much of that progress being fueled by the success of gradient descent-based optimization methods in computing local optima of non-convex objectives. From robustifying machine learning models against adversarial attacks to causal inference, training generative models, multi-robot interactions, and learning in strategic environments, many outstanding challenges in Machine Learning lie at its interface with Game Theory. On this front, however, gradient-descent based optimization methods have been less successful. Here, the role of single-objective optimization is played by equilibrium computation, but gradient-descent based methods commonly fail to find equilibria, and even computing local approximate equilibria has remained daunting. We shed light on these challenges through a combination of learning-theoretic, complexity-theoretic, game-theoretic and topological techniques, presenting obstacles and opportunities for Machine Learning and Game Theory going forward. I will assume no Deep Learning background for this talk and present results from joint works with S. Skoulakis and M. Zampetakis [Daskalakis et al., 2021] as well as with N. Golowich and K. Zhang [Daskalakis et al., 2022].

Streaming and Sketching Complexity of CSPs: A Survey (Invited Talk)

Authors: Madhu Sudan

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 229, 49th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2022)

Abstract
In this survey we describe progress over the last decade or so in understanding the complexity of solving constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) approximately in the streaming and sketching models of computation. After surveying some of the results we give some sketches of the proofs and in particular try to explain why there is a tight dichotomy result for sketching algorithms working in subpolynomial space regime.

A Brief Tour in Twin-Width (Invited Talk)

Authors: Stéphan Thomassé

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 229, 49th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2022)

Abstract
This is an introduction to the notion of twin-width, with emphasis on how it interacts with first-order model checking and enumerative combinatorics. Even though approximating twin-width remains a challenge in general graphs, it is now well understood for ordered graphs, where bounded twin-width coincides with many other complexity gaps. For instance classes of graphs with linear FO-model checking, small classes, or NIP classes are exactly bounded twin-width classes. Some other applications of twin-width are also presented.

Improved Approximation Algorithms and Lower Bounds for Search-Diversification Problems

Authors: Amir Abboud, Vincent Cohen-Addad, Euiwoong Lee, and Pasin Manurangsi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 229, 49th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2022)

Abstract
We study several questions related to diversifying search results. We give improved approximation algorithms in each of the following problems, together with some lower bounds. 1) We give a polynomial-time approximation scheme (PTAS) for a diversified search ranking problem [Nikhil Bansal et al., 2010] whose objective is to minimizes the discounted cumulative gain. Our PTAS runs in time n^{2^O(log(1/ε)/ε)} ⋅ m^O(1) where n denotes the number of elements in the databases and m denotes the number of constraints. Complementing this result, we show that no PTAS can run in time f(ε) ⋅ (nm)^{2^o(1/ε)} assuming Gap-ETH and therefore our running time is nearly tight. Both our upper and lower bounds answer open questions from [Nikhil Bansal et al., 2010]. 2) We next consider the Max-Sum Dispersion problem, whose objective is to select k out of n elements from a database that maximizes the dispersion, which is defined as the sum of the pairwise distances under a given metric. We give a quasipolynomial-time approximation scheme (QPTAS) for the problem which runs in time n^{O_ε(log n)}. This improves upon previously known polynomial-time algorithms with approximate ratios 0.5 [Refael Hassin et al., 1997; Allan Borodin et al., 2017]. Furthermore, we observe that reductions from previous work rule out approximation schemes that run in n^õ_ε(log n) time assuming ETH. 3) Finally, we consider a generalization of Max-Sum Dispersion called Max-Sum Diversification. In addition to the sum of pairwise distance, the objective also includes another function f. For monotone submodular function f, we give a quasipolynomial-time algorithm with approximation ratio arbitrarily close to (1-1/e). This improves upon the best polynomial-time algorithm which has approximation ratio 0.5 [Allan Borodin et al., 2017]. Furthermore, the (1-1/e) factor is also tight as achieving better-than-(1-1/e) approximation is NP-hard [Uriel Feige, 1998].

Round-Optimal Lattice-Based Threshold Signatures, Revisited

Authors: Shweta Agrawal, Damien Stehlé, and Anshu Yadav

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 229, 49th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2022)

Abstract
Threshold signature schemes enable distribution of the signature issuing capability to multiple users, to mitigate the threat of signing key compromise. Though a classic primitive, these signatures have witnessed a surge of interest in recent times due to relevance to modern applications like blockchains and cryptocurrencies. In this work, we study round-optimal threshold signatures in the post-quantum regime and improve the only known lattice-based construction by Boneh et al. [CRYPTO'18] as follows: - Efficiency. We reduce the amount of noise flooding used in the construction from 2^Ω(λ) down to √Q, where Q is the bound on the number of generated signatures and λ is the security parameter. By using lattice hardness assumptions over polynomial rings, this allows to decrease the signature bit-lengths from Õ(λ³) to Õ(λ), bringing them significantly closer to practice. Our improvement relies on a careful analysis using Rényi divergence rather than statistical distance in the security proof. - Instantiation. The construction of Boneh et al. requires a standard signature scheme to be evaluated homomorphically. To instantiate this, we provide a homomorphism-friendly variant of Lyubashevsky’s signature [EUROCRYPT '12] which achieves low circuit depth by being "rejection-free" and uses an optimal, moderate noise flooding of √Q, matching the above. - Towards Adaptive Security. The construction of Boneh et al. satisfies only selective security, where all the corrupted parties must be announced before any signing query is made. We improve this in two ways: in the Random Oracle Model, we obtain partial adaptivity where signing queries can be made before the corrupted parties are announced but the set of corrupted parties must be announced all at once. In the standard model, we obtain full adaptivity, where parties can be corrupted at any time but this construction is in a weaker pre-processing model where signers must be provided correlated randomness of length proportional to the number of signatures, in an offline preprocessing phase.

Parameterized Sensitivity Oracles and Dynamic Algorithms Using Exterior Algebras

Authors: Josh Alman and Dean Hirsch

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 229, 49th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2022)

Abstract
We design the first efficient sensitivity oracles and dynamic algorithms for a variety of parameterized problems. Our main approach is to modify the algebraic coding technique from static parameterized algorithm design, which had not previously been used in a dynamic context. We particularly build off of the "extensor coding" method of Brand, Dell and Husfeldt [STOC'18], employing properties of the exterior algebra over different fields. For the k-Path detection problem for directed graphs, it is known that no efficient dynamic algorithm exists (under popular assumptions from fine-grained complexity). We circumvent this by designing an efficient sensitivity oracle, which preprocesses a directed graph on n vertices in 2^k poly(k) n^{ω+o(1)} time, such that, given 𝓁 updates (mixing edge insertions and deletions, and vertex deletions) to that input graph, it can decide in time 𝓁² 2^kpoly(k) and with high probability, whether the updated graph contains a path of length k. We also give a deterministic sensitivity oracle requiring 4^k poly(k) n^{ω+o(1)} preprocessing time and 𝓁² 2^{ω k + o(k)} query time, and obtain a randomized sensitivity oracle for the task of approximately counting the number of k-paths. For k-Path detection in undirected graphs, we obtain a randomized sensitivity oracle with O(1.66^k n³) preprocessing time and O(𝓁³ 1.66^k) query time, and a better bound for undirected bipartite graphs. In addition, we present the first fully dynamic algorithms for a variety of problems: k-Partial Cover, m-Set k-Packing, t-Dominating Set, d-Dimensional k-Matching, and Exact k-Partial Cover. For example, for k-Partial Cover we show a randomized dynamic algorithm with 2^k poly(k)polylog(n) update time, and a deterministic dynamic algorithm with 4^k poly(k)polylog(n) update time. Finally, we show how our techniques can be adapted to deal with natural variants on these problems where additional constraints are imposed on the solutions.

Low-Degree Polynomials Extract From Local Sources

Abstract
We continue a line of work on extracting random bits from weak sources that are generated by simple processes. We focus on the model of locally samplable sources, where each bit in the source depends on a small number of (hidden) uniformly random input bits. Also known as local sources, this model was introduced by De and Watson (TOCT 2012) and Viola (SICOMP 2014), and is closely related to sources generated by AC⁰ circuits and bounded-width branching programs. In particular, extractors for local sources also work for sources generated by these classical computational models. Despite being introduced a decade ago, little progress has been made on improving the entropy requirement for extracting from local sources. The current best explicit extractors require entropy n^{1/2}, and follow via a reduction to affine extractors. To start, we prove a barrier showing that one cannot hope to improve this entropy requirement via a black-box reduction of this form. In particular, new techniques are needed. In our main result, we seek to answer whether low-degree polynomials (over 𝔽₂) hold potential for breaking this barrier. We answer this question in the positive, and fully characterize the power of low-degree polynomials as extractors for local sources. More precisely, we show that a random degree r polynomial is a low-error extractor for n-bit local sources with min-entropy Ω(r(nlog n)^{1/r}), and we show that this is tight. Our result leverages several new ingredients, which may be of independent interest. Our existential result relies on a new reduction from local sources to a more structured family, known as local non-oblivious bit-fixing sources. To show its tightness, we prove a "local version" of a structural result by Cohen and Tal (RANDOM 2015), which relies on a new "low-weight" Chevalley-Warning theorem.
