Geometric Optimization Parameterized by Piercing Complexity

Authors: Aritra Banik, Rajiv Raman, and Saurabh Ray

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

Abstract
Packing and Covering problems with geometric regions in the plane have been extensively studied and several notions of "complexity" of the regions involved have been developed and exploited to obtain good approximation algorithms. Examples of such complexity measures are VC-dimension, union complexity, shallow-cell complexity, fatness, etc. While these restrictions lead to constant-factor approximation algorithms in many cases, they typically do not lead to PTASs. In fact, several geometric Set Cover and Discrete Independent Set variants remain APX-hard even when these parameters are small, as demonstrated in earlier work by Chan and Grant (Exact algorithms and APX-hardness results for geometric packing and covering problems. Comput. Geom., 2014), and by Har-Peled and Quanrud (Approximation Algorithms for Polynomial-Expansion and Low-Density Graphs. SIAM J. Comput., 2017). A key feature of these hardness constructions is that many pairs of regions in the input pierce one another. Motivated by this observation, we initiate a systematic study of geometric families parameterized by their piercing complexity. A connected region A is said to pierce a connected region B if B ⧵ A has more than one connected component; we consider instances in which every region is pierced by at most a constant number of others. This framework smoothly interpolates between the classical non-piercing case-where local-search PTASs are known due to Raman and Ray (Constructing Planar Support for Non-Piercing Regions, Discret. Comput. Geom., 2020), and the fully general case, where APX-hardness persists. Our main contribution is to show that bounded-piercing families admit efficient approximation schemes for fundamental geometric optimization problems. For regions in the plane with a constant piercing bound, we obtain PTASs for the (unweighted) Discrete Independent Set and Set Cover problems, and constant-factor approximation algorithms for their weighted variants. These results strictly generalize the known PTASs for non-piercing families and yield improved guarantees for several long-standing special cases, including Independent Set and Set Cover with axis-parallel rectangles under bounded piercing. Overall, our work identifies piercing complexity as a robust and expressive topological parameter-distinct from geometric notions such as density or fatness-and demonstrates that bounding this parameter yields a broad family of geometric instances for which PTASs become achievable.

Covering and Partitioning Complex Objects with Small Pieces

Authors: Anders Aamand, Mikkel Abrahamsen, Reilly Browne, Mayank Goswami, Prahlad Narasimhan Kasthurirangan, Linda Kleist, Joseph S. B. Mitchell, Valentin Polishchuk, and Jack Stade

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

Abstract
We study the problems of covering or partitioning a polygon P (possibly with holes) using a minimum number of small pieces, where a small piece is a connected sub-polygon contained in an axis-aligned unit square. For covering, we seek to write P as a union of small pieces, and in partitioning, we furthermore require the pieces to be pairwise interior-disjoint. We show that these problems are in fact equivalent: Optimum covers and partitions have the same number of pieces. For covering, a natural local search algorithm repeatedly attempts to replace k pieces from a candidate cover with k-1 pieces. In two dimensions and for sufficiently large k, we show that when no such swap is possible, the cover is a 1+ O(1/√k) approximation, hence obtaining the first PTAS for the problem. Prior to our work, the only known algorithm was a 13-approximation that only works for polygons without holes [Abrahamsen and Rasmussen, SODA 2025]. In contrast, in the three dimensional version of the problem, for a polyhedron P of complexity n, we show that it is NP-hard to approximate an optimal cover or partition to within a factor that is logarithmic in n, even if P is simple, i.e., has genus 0 and no holes.

Single-Criteria Metric r-Dominating Set Problem via Minor-Preserving Support

Authors: Reilly Browne and Hsien-Chih Chang

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

Abstract
Given an unweighted graph G, the minimum r-dominating set problem asks for a subset of vertices S of the smallest cardinality, such that every vertex in G is within radius r to some vertex in S. While the r-dominating set problem on planar graph admits PTAS from Baker’s shifting/layering technique when r is a constant, the problem becomes significantly harder when r can depend on n. In fact, under Exponential-Time Hypothesis, Fox-Epstein ηl [SODA 2019] observed that no efficient PTAS can exist for the unbounded r-dominating set problem on planar graphs. One may consider even harder weighted-variant known as the vertex-weighted metric r-dominating set, where edges are associated with lengths, and every vertex is associated with a positive-valued weight, and the goal is to compute an r-dominating set with minimum total weight. As a result, people resorted to bicriteria algorithms by allowing the returned solution to use radius-(1+ε)r balls instead, in addition to the total weight being a 1+ε approximation to the optimal value. We establish the first single-criteria polynomial-time O(1)-approximation algorithm for the vertex-weighted metric r-dominating set problem on planar graphs when r is part of the input, and can be arbitrarily large compared to n. Our new (single-criteria) O(1)-approximation algorithm uses the quasi-uniformity sampling technique of Chan et al. [SODA 2012] by bounding the shallow cell complexity of the (unbounded) radius-r ball system to be linear in n. To this end we have two technical innovations: 1) The discrete ball system on planar graphs are neither pseudodisks nor have well-defined boundaries for standard union-complexity arguments. We construct a support graph for arbitrary distance ball systems as contractions of Voronoi cells; the sparseness comes as a byproduct. 2) We present an assignment of each depth-(≥3) cell to a unique 3-tuple of ball centers. This allows us to use standard Clarkson-Shor techniques to reduce the counting to cells of depth exactly 3, which we prove to be size O(n) by a novel geometric argument based on our support being a Voronoi contraction.

Line Cover and Related Problems

Authors: Matthias Bentert, Fedor V. Fomin, Petr A. Golovach, Souvik Saha, Sanjay Seetharaman, and Anannya Upasana

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

Abstract
We study several extensions of the classic Line Cover problem of covering a set of n points in the plane with k lines. Line Cover is known to be NP-hard and our focus is on two natural generalizations: (1) Line Clustering, where the objective is to find k lines in the plane that minimize the sum of squares of distances of a given set of input points to the closest line, and (2) Hyperplane Cover, where the goal is to cover n points in ℝ^d by k hyperplanes. We also consider the more general Projective Clustering problem, which unifies both of these and has numerous applications in machine learning, data mining, and computational geometry. In this problem one seeks k affine subspaces of dimension r minimizing the sum of squares of distances of a given set of n points in ℝ^d to the closest point within one of the k affine subspaces. Our main contributions reveal interesting differences in the parameterized complexity of these problems. While Line Cover is fixed-parameter tractable parameterized by the number k of lines in the solution, we show that Line Clustering is W[1]-hard when parameterized by k and rule out algorithms of running time n^{o(k)} under the Exponential Time Hypothesis. Hyperplane Cover is known to be NP-hard even when d = 2 and by the work of Langerman and Morin [Discrete & Computational Geometry, 2005], it is FPT parameterized by k and d. We complement this result by establishing that Hyperplane Cover is W[2]-hard when parameterized by only k. We complement our hardness results by presenting an algorithm for Projective Clustering. We show that this problem is solvable in n^{𝒪(dk(r+1))} time. Not only does this yield an upper bound for Line Clustering that asymptotically matches our lower bound, but it also significantly extends the seminal work on k-Means Clustering (the special case r = 0) by Inaba, Katoh, and Imai [SoCG 1994].

Beyond Exact Fairness: Envy-Free Incomplete Connected Fair Division

Authors: Ajaykrishnan E S and Daniel Lokshtanov

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

Abstract
We study the problem of Envy-Free Incomplete Connected Fair Division, where exactly p vertices of an undirected graph must be allocated to agents such that each agent receives a connected share and does not envy another agent’s share. Focusing on agents with additive valuations, we show that the problem remains computationally hard when parameterized by p and the number of agents. This result holds even for star graphs and with the input numbers given in unary representation, thereby resolving an open problem posed by Gahlawat and Zehavi (FSTTCS 2023). In stark contrast, we show that if one is willing to tolerate even the slightest amount of envy, then the problem becomes efficient with respect to the natural parameters. Specifically, we design an Efficient Parameterized Approximation Scheme parameterized by p and the number of agent types. Our algorithm works on general graphs and remains efficient even when the input numbers are provided in binary representation.

Covering Simple Orthogonal Polygons with Rectangles

Authors: Aniket Basu Roy

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 353, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2025)

Abstract
We study the problem of Covering Orthogonal Polygons with Rectangles, focusing on three variants: covering the interior, the boundary, and the corners. While previous work provided constant-factor approximation algorithms for these problems, significant improvements had not been achieved for over two decades. The main contribution of this work is the development of a Polynomial Time Approximation Scheme (PTAS) for both the Boundary Cover and Corner Cover problems on simple polygons, using a local search algorithm. Our work advances the state of the art, improving upon the previous best-known 4-approximation for the Boundary Cover and 2-approximation for the Corner Cover problems. The technical core of our work lies in proving the existence of planar support graphs for certain geometric hypergraphs defined by the polygon and its containment-maximal rectangles. This structural insight enables the application of the local search framework to achieve the PTAS results. We also demonstrate the limitations of this approach by constructing instances where local search fails for the Interior Cover and certain dual problems, such as the Maximum Antirectangle and Hitting Set problems. Additionally, the methods yield a PTAS for a special case of the Discrete Independent Set problem for rectangles. These results not only settle longstanding open questions but also introduce new techniques that may be of independent interest within computational geometry.

Approximation and Parameterized Algorithms for Covering with Disks of Two Types of Radii

Authors: Sayan Bandyapadhyay and Eli Mitchell

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 349, 19th International Symposium on Algorithms and Data Structures (WADS 2025)

Abstract
We study the Discrete Covering with Two Types of Radii problem motivated by its application in wireless networks. In this problem, the goal is to assign either small-range high frequency or large-range low frequency to each access point, maximizing the number of users in high-frequency regions while ensuring that each user is in the range of an access point. Unlike other weighted covering problems, our problem requires satisfying two simultaneous objectives, which calls for novel approaches that leverage the underlying geometry of the problem. In our work, we present two new algorithms: the first is a polynomial-time (2.5 + ε)-approximation, and the second is an exact algorithm for sparse instances, which is fixed-parameter tractable (FPT) in the number of large-radius disks. We also prove that such an FPT algorithm is impossible for general instances lacking sparsity, assuming the Exponential Time Hypothesis. Before our work, the best-known polynomial-time approximation factor was 4 for the problem. Our approximation algorithm results from a fine-grained classification of points that can contribute to the gain of a solution. Based on this classification, we design two sub-algorithms with interdependent guarantees to recover the respective class of points as gain. Our algorithm exploits further properties of Delaunay triangulations to achieve the improved bound. The FPT algorithm is based on branching that utilizes the sparsity of the instances to limit the overall search space.

Crossing and Independent Families Among Polygons

Authors: Anna Brötzner, Robert Ganian, Thekla Hamm, Fabian Klute, and Irene Parada

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 349, 19th International Symposium on Algorithms and Data Structures (WADS 2025)

Abstract
Given a set A of points in the plane, a family of line segments forming a matching in A is called crossing (or independent) if each pair of segments in the family intersects (or is non-intersecting, respectively). In past works, these notions have been generalized to polygons by identifying the points in A with the vertices of a given set of polygons and forbidding the line segments from intersecting or overlapping with polygon walls. In this work, we study the computational complexity of computing maximum crossing and independent families in this more general setting. As our first two results, we show that both problems are NP-hard already when the polygons are triangles. Motivated by this, we turn to parameterized algorithms. For our main algorithmic results, we consider the number of polygons on the input as the natural parameter and under this parameterization obtain a fixed-parameter algorithm for computing a largest crossing family among these polygons, and a separate XP-algorithm for computing a largest independent family that lies in one of the faces of the polygonal domain.

Enumerating Minimal Dominating Sets and Variants in Chordal Bipartite Graphs

Authors: Emanuel Castelo, Oscar Defrain, and Guilherme C. M. Gomes

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 349, 19th International Symposium on Algorithms and Data Structures (WADS 2025)

Abstract
Enumerating minimal dominating sets with polynomial delay in bipartite graphs is a long-standing open problem. To date, even the subcase of chordal bipartite graphs is open, with the best known algorithm due to Golovach, Heggernes, Kanté, Kratsch, Sæther, and Villanger running in incremental-polynomial time. We improve on this result by providing a polynomial delay and space algorithm enumerating minimal dominating sets in chordal bipartite graphs. Additionally, we show that the total and connected variants admit polynomial and incremental-polynomial delay algorithms, respectively, within the same class. This provides an alternative proof of a result by Golovach et al. for total dominating sets, and answers an open question for the connected variant. Finally, we give evidence that the techniques used in this paper cannot be generalized to bipartite graphs for (total) minimal dominating sets, unless P = NP, and show that enumerating minimal connected dominating sets in bipartite graphs is harder than enumerating minimal transversals in general hypergraphs.

Shortest Paths in Multimode Graphs

Authors: Yael Kirkpatrick and Virginia Vassilevska Williams

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 345, 50th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2025)

Abstract
In this work we study shortest path problems in multimode graphs, a generalization of the min-distance measure introduced by Abboud, Vassilevska W. and Wang in [SODA'16]. A multimode shortest path is the shortest path using one of multiple "modes" of transportation that cannot be combined. This represents real-world scenarios where different modes are not combinable, such as flights operated by different airline alliances. The problem arises naturally in machine learning in the context of learning with multiple embedding. More precisely, a k-multimode graph is a collection of k graphs on the same vertex set and the k-mode distance between two vertices is defined as the minimum among the distances computed in each individual graph. We focus on approximating fundamental graph parameters on these graphs, specifically diameter and radius. In undirected multimode graphs we first show an elegant linear time 3-approximation algorithm for 2-mode diameter. We then extend this idea into a general subroutine that can be used as a part of any α-approximation, and use it to construct a 2 and 2.5 approximation algorithm for 2-mode diameter. For undirected radius, we introduce a general scheme that can compute a 3-approximation of the k-mode radius for any k and runs in near linear time in the case of k = O(1). In the directed case we establish an equivalence between approximating 2-mode diameter on DAGs and approximating the min-diameter, while for general graphs we develop novel techniques and provide a linear time algorithm to determine whether the diameter is finite. We also develop many conditional fine-grained lower bounds for various multimode diameter and radius approximation problems. We are able to show that many of our algorithms are tight under popular fine-grained complexity hypotheses, including our linear time 3-approximation for 3-mode undirected diameter and radius. As part of this effort we propose the first extension to the Hitting Set Hypothesis [SODA'16], which we call the 𝓁-Hitting Set Hypothesis. We use this hypothesis to prove the first parameterized lower bound tradeoff for radius approximation algorithms.

Parameterized Spanning Tree Congestion

Authors: Michael Lampis, Valia Mitsou, Edouard Nemery, Yota Otachi, Manolis Vasilakis, and Daniel Vaz

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 345, 50th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2025)

Abstract
In this paper we study the Spanning Tree Congestion problem, where we are given an undirected graph G = (V,E) and are asked to find a spanning tree T of minimum maximum congestion. Here, the congestion of an edge e ∈ T is the number of edges uv ∈ E such that the (unique) path from u to v in T traverses e. We consider this well-studied NP-hard problem from the point of view of (structural) parameterized complexity and obtain the following results: - We resolve a natural open problem by showing that Spanning Tree Congestion is not FPT parameterized by treewidth (under standard assumptions). More strongly, we present a generic reduction which applies to (almost) any parameter of the form "vertex-deletion distance to class 𝒞", thus obtaining W[1]-hardness for more restricted parameters, including tree-depth plus feedback vertex set, or incomparable to treewidth, such as twin cover. Via a slight tweak of the same reduction we also show that the problem is NP-complete on graphs of modular-width 4. - Even though it is known that Spanning Tree Congestion remains NP-hard on instances with only one vertex of unbounded degree, it is currently open whether the problem remains hard on bounded-degree graphs. We resolve this question by showing NP-hardness on graphs of maximum degree 8. - Complementing the problem’s W[1]-hardness for treewidth, we formulate an algorithm that runs in time roughly {(k+w)}^{𝒪(w)}, where k is the desired congestion and w the treewidth, improving a previous argument for parameter k+w that was based on Courcelle’s theorem. This explicit algorithm pays off in two ways: it allows us to obtain an FPT approximation scheme for parameter treewidth, that is, a (1+ε)-approximation running in time roughly {(w/ε)}^{𝒪(w)}; and it leads to an exact FPT algorithm for parameter clique-width+k via a Win/Win argument. - Finally, motivated by the problem’s hardness for most standard structural parameters, we present FPT algorithms for several more restricted cases, namely, for the parameters vertex-deletion distance to clique; vertex integrity; and feedback edge set, in the latter case also achieving a single-exponential running time dependence on the parameter.

Rapid Mixing of the Flip Chain over Non-Crossing Spanning Trees

Authors: Konrad Anand, Weiming Feng, Graham Freifeld, Heng Guo, Mark Jerrum, and Jiaheng Wang

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 332, 41st International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2025)

Abstract
We show that the flip chain for non-crossing spanning trees of n+1 points in convex position mixes in time O(n⁸log n). We use connections between Fuss-Catalan structures to construct a comparison argument with a chain similar to Wilson’s lattice path chain (Wilson 2004).

The Maximum Clique Problem in a Disk Graph Made Easy

Authors: J. Mark Keil and Debajyoti Mondal

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 332, 41st International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2025)

Abstract
A disk graph is an intersection graph of disks in ℝ². Determining the computational complexity of finding a maximum clique in a disk graph is a long-standing open problem. In 1990, Clark, Colbourn, and Johnson gave a polynomial-time algorithm for computing a maximum clique in a unit disk graph. However, finding a maximum clique when disks are of arbitrary size is widely believed to be a challenging open problem. In this paper, we provide a new perspective to examine adjacencies in a disk graph that helps obtain the following results. - We design an 𝒪^*(n^{2k})-time algorithm, where 𝒪^* hides a polynomial factor, to find a maximum clique in a n-vertex disk graph with k different sizes of radii. This is polynomial for every fixed k, and thus settles the open question for the case when k = 2. - Given a set of n unit disks, we show how to compute a maximum clique inside each possible axis-aligned rectangle determined by the disk centers in O(n⁵log n)-time. This is at least a factor of n^{4/3} faster than applying the fastest known algorithm for finding a maximum clique in a unit disk graph for each rectangle independently. - We give an 𝒪^*(n^{2rk})-time algorithm to find a maximum clique in a n-vertex ball graph with k different sizes of radii where the ball centers lie on r parallel planes. This is polynomial for every fixed k and r, and thus contrasts the previously known NP-hardness result for finding a maximum clique in an arbitrary ball graph. - We design an 𝒪^*(n^{2k})-time algorithm to find a maximum clique in the intersection graph of a set S of n L-visible convex polygons, where k is the number of distinct shapes in S. This contrasts the known hardness result on finding a maximum clique in the intersection graph of unit disks and axis-aligned rectangles.

Polychromatic Coloring of Tuples in Hypergraphs

Authors: Ahmad Biniaz, Jean-Lou De Carufel, Anil Maheshwari, Michiel Smid, Shakhar Smorodinsky, and Miloš Stojaković

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 332, 41st International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2025)

Abstract
A hypergraph H consists of a set V of vertices and a set E of hyperedges that are subsets of V. A t-tuple of H is a subset of t vertices of V. A t-tuple k-coloring of H is a mapping of its t-tuples into k colors. A coloring is called (t,k,f)-polychromatic if each hyperedge of E that has at least f vertices contains tuples of all the k colors. Let f_H(t,k) be the minimum f such that H has a (t,k,f)-polychromatic coloring. For a family of hypergraphs ℋ let f_H(t,k) be the maximum f_H(t,k) over all hypergraphs H in H. Determining f_H(t,k) has been an active research direction in recent years. This is challenging even for t = 1. We present several new results in this direction for t ≥ 2. - Let H be the family of hypergraphs H that is obtained by taking any set P of points in ℝ², setting V: = P and E: = {d ∩ P: d is a disk in ℝ²}. We prove that f_ H(2,k) ≤ 3.7^k, that is, the pairs of points (2-tuples) can be k-colored such that any disk containing at least 3.7^k points has pairs of all colors. We generalize this result to points and balls in higher dimensions. - For the family H of hypergraphs that are defined by grid vertices and axis-parallel rectangles in the plane, we show that f_H(2,k) ≤ √{ck ln k} for some constant c. We then generalize this to higher dimensions, to other shapes, and to tuples of larger size. - For the family H of shrinkable hypergraphs of VC-dimension at most d we prove that f_ H(d+1,k) ≤ c^k for some constant c = c(d). Towards this bound, we obtain a result of independent interest: Every hypergraph with n vertices and with VC-dimension at most d has a (d+1)-tuple T of depth at least n/c, i.e., any hyperedge that contains T also contains n/c other vertices. - For the relationship between t-tuple coloring and vertex coloring in any hypergraph H we establish the inequality 1/e⋅ tk^{1/t} ≤ f_H(t,k) ≤ f_H(1,tk^{1/t}). For the special case of k = 2, referred to as the bichromatic coloring, we prove that t+1 ≤ f_H(t,2) ≤ max{f_H(1,2), t+1}; this improves upon the previous best known upper bound. - We study the relationship between tuple coloring and epsilon nets. In particular we show that if f_H(1,k) = O(k) for a hypergraph H with n vertices, then for any 0 < ε < 1 the t-tuples of H can be partitioned into Ω((εn/t)^t) ε-t-nets. This bound is tight when t is a constant.

Spanner Enumeration for Temporal Graphs

Authors: Kazuhiro Kurita, Andrea Marino, Jason Schoeters, and Takeaki Uno

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 330, 4th Symposium on Algorithmic Foundations of Dynamic Networks (SAND 2025)

Abstract
A spanner of a temporal graph is a subset of edges that preserves connectivity over time between vertices. A minimal spanner is one in which no additional edges can be removed without breaking this connectivity. Our focus is on enumerating minimal spanners for a given temporal graph. We explore several variations of this problem based on the type of connectivity that must be maintained, ranging from one-to-all connectivity to one-to-all-to-one, many-to-all, and finally all-to-all connectivity. We establish that these problems become progressively harder: (i) We present a polynomial-delay enumeration algorithm for one-to-all connectivity; (ii) We prove Dual-hardness for both one-to-all-to-one and many-to-all connectivity, even in the restricted case of two-to-all; (iii) Finally, for all-to-all connectivity, we show that enumeration cannot be performed in output-polynomial time unless P = NP.
