To Buy or Not to Buy: Online Rent-Or-Buy on Node-Weighted Graphs

Authors: Sander Borst and Moritz Venzin

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

Abstract
We study the rent-or-buy variant of the online Steiner forest problem on node- and edge-weighted graphs. For n-node graphs with at most ̄{n} nodes of non-zero weight, and at most k̃ different arriving terminal pairs, we obtain the following: - A deterministic, O(log n log ̄{n})-competitive algorithm against adaptive adversaries. This improves on the previous best, O(log⁴ n)-competitive algorithm obtained by the black-box reduction from [Yair Bartal et al., 2001] combined with the previously best deterministic algorithms for the simpler "buy-only" setting. - A deterministic, O(̄{n}log k̃)-competitive algorithm against adaptive adversaries. This generalizes the O(log k̃)-competitive algorithm for the purely edge-weighted setting from [Seeun Umboh, 2015]. - A randomized, O(log k̃ log ̄{n})-competitive algorithm against oblivious adversaries. All previous approaches were based on the randomized, black-box reduction from [Awerbuch et al., 2004] that achieves a O(log k̃ log n)-competitive ratio when combined with an algorithm for the "buy-only" setting. Our key technical ingredient is a novel charging scheme to an instance of online prize-collecting set cover. This allows us to extend the witness-technique of [Seeun Umboh, 2015] to the node-weighted setting and obtain refined guarantees with respect to ̄{n}, already in the much simpler "buy-only" setting.

Local Computation Algorithms for Knapsack: Impossibility Results, and How to Avoid Them

Authors: Clément L. Canonne, Yun Li, and Seeun William Umboh

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

Abstract
Local Computation Algorithms (LCA), as introduced by Rubinfeld, Tamir, Vardi, and Xie (2011), are a type of ultra-efficient algorithms which, given access to a (large) input for a given computational task, are required to provide fast query access to a consistent output solution, without maintaining a state between queries. This paradigm of computation in particular allows for hugely distributed algorithms, where independent instances of a given LCA provide consistent access to a common output solution. The past decade has seen a significant amount of work on LCAs, by and large focusing on graph problems. In this paper, we initiate the study of Local Computation Algorithms for perhaps the archetypal combinatorial optimization problem, Knapsack. We first establish strong impossibility results, ruling out the existence of any non-trivial LCA for Knapsack as several of its relaxations. We then show how equipping the LCA with additional access to the Knapsack instance, namely, weighted item sampling, allows one to circumvent these impossibility results, and obtain sublinear-time and query LCAs. Our positive result draws on a connection to the recent notion of reproducibility for learning algorithms (Impagliazzo, Lei, Pitassi, and Sorrell, 2022), a connection we believe to be of independent interest for the design of LCAs.

Directed Buy-At-Bulk Spanners

Authors: Elena Grigorescu, Nithish Kumar, and Young-San Lin

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

Abstract
We present a framework that unifies directed buy-at-bulk network design and directed spanner problems, namely, buy-at-bulk spanners. The goal is to find a minimum-cost routing solution for network design problems that captures economies at scale, while satisfying demands and distance constraints for terminal pairs. A more restricted version of this problem was shown to be O(2^{log^{1-ε} n})-hard to approximate, where n is the number of vertices, under a standard complexity assumption, by Elkin and Peleg (Theory of Computing Systems, 2007). Our results for buy-at-bulk spanners are the following. - When the edge lengths are integral with magnitude polynomial in n we present: 1) An Õ(n^{4/5 + ε})-approximation polynomial-time randomized algorithm for uniform demands. 2) An Õ(k^{1/2 + ε})-approximation polynomial-time randomized algorithm for general demands, where k is the number of terminal pairs. This can be improved to an Õ(k^{ε})-approximation algorithm for the single-source problem. The same approximation ratios hold in the online setting. - When the edge lengths are rational and well-conditioned, we present an Õ(k^{1/2 + ε})-approximation polynomial-time randomized algorithm that may slightly violate the distance constraints. The result can be improved to an Õ(k^ε)-approximation algorithm for the single-source problem. The same approximation ratios hold for the online setting when the condition number is given in advance. To the best of our knowledge, these are the first sublinear factor approximation algorithms for directed buy-at-bulk spanners. We allow the edge lengths to be negative and the demands to be non-unit, unlike the previous literature. Our approximation ratios match the state-of-the-art ratios in special cases, namely, buy-at-bulk network design by Antonakopoulos (WAOA, 2010) and (online) weighted spanners by Grigorescu, Kumar, and Lin (APPROX 2023). Furthermore, we improve the competitive ratio for online buy-at-bulk by Chakrabarty, Ene, Krishnaswamy, and Panigrahi (SICOMP, 2018) by a factor of log R, where R is the ratio between the maximum demand and the minimum demand.

Net Occurrences in Fibonacci and Thue-Morse Words

Authors: Peaker Guo and Kaisei Kishi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 331, 36th Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2025)

Abstract
A net occurrence of a repeated string in a text is an occurrence with unique left and right extensions, and the net frequency of the string is the number of its net occurrences in the text. Originally introduced for applications in Natural Language Processing, net frequency has recently gained attention for its algorithmic aspects. Guo et al. [CPM 2024] and Ohlebusch et al. [SPIRE 2024] focus on its computation in the offline setting, while Guo et al. [SPIRE 2024], Inenaga [arXiv 2024], and Mieno and Inenaga [CPM 2025] tackle the online counterpart. Mieno and Inenaga also characterize net occurrences in terms of the minimal unique substrings of the text. Additionally, Guo et al. [CPM 2024] initiate the study of net occurrences in Fibonacci words to establish a lower bound on the asymptotic running time of algorithms. Although there has been notable progress in algorithmic developments and some initial combinatorial insights, the combinatorial aspects of net occurrences have yet to be thoroughly examined. In this work, we make two key contributions. First, we confirm the conjecture that each Fibonacci word contains exactly three net occurrences. Second, we show that each Thue-Morse word contains exactly nine net occurrences. To achieve these results, we introduce the notion of overlapping net occurrence cover, which narrows down the candidate net occurrences in any text. Furthermore, we provide a precise characterization of occurrences of Fibonacci and Thue-Morse words of smaller order, offering structural insights that may have independent interest and potential applications in algorithm analysis and combinatorial properties of these words.

Space-Efficient Online Computation of String Net Occurrences

Authors: Takuya Mieno and Shunsuke Inenaga

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 331, 36th Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2025)

Abstract
A substring u of a string T is said to be a repeat if u occurs at least twice in T. An occurrence [i..j] of a repeat u in T is said to be a net occurrence if each of the substrings aub = T[i-1..j+1], au = T[i-1..j], and ub = T[i..j+1] occurs exactly once in T. The occurrence [i-1..j+1] of aub is said to be an extended net occurrence of u. Let T be an input string of length n over an alphabet of size σ, and let ENO(T) denote the set of extended net occurrences of repeats in T. Guo et al. [SPIRE 2024] presented an online algorithm which can report ENO(T[1..i]) in T[1..i] in O(nσ²) time, for each prefix T[1..i] of T. Very recently, Inenaga [arXiv 2024] gave a faster online algorithm that can report ENO(T[1..i]) in optimal O(#ENO(T[1..i])) time for each prefix T[1..i] of T, where #S denotes the cardinality of a set S. Both of the aforementioned data structures can be maintained in O(n log σ) time and occupy O(n) space, where the O(n)-space requirement comes from the suffix tree data structure. In particular, Inenaga’s recent algorithm is based on Weiner’s right-to-left online suffix tree construction. In this paper, we show that one can modify Ukkonen’s left-to-right online suffix tree construction algorithm in O(n) space, so that ENO(T[1..i]) can be reported in optimal O(#ENO(T[1..i])) time for each prefix T[1..i] of T. This is an improvement over Guo et al.’s method that is also based on Ukkonen’s algorithm. Further, this leads us to the two following space-efficient alternatives: - A sliding-window algorithm of O(d) working space that can report ENO(T[i-d+1..i]) in optimal O(#ENO(T[i-d+1..i])) time for each sliding window T[i-d+1..i] of size d in T. - A CDAWG-based online algorithm of O(𝖾) working space that can report ENO(T[1..i]) in optimal O(#ENO(T[1..i])) time for each prefix T[1..i] of T, where 𝖾 < 2n is the number of edges in the CDAWG for T. All of our proposed data structures can be maintained in O(n log σ) time for the input online string T. We also discuss that the extended net occurrences of repeats in T can be fully characterized in terms of the minimal unique substrings (MUSs) in T.

Nearly-Optimal Algorithm for Non-Clairvoyant Service with Delay

Authors: Noam Touitou

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

Abstract
We consider the online service with delay problem, in which a server traverses a metric space to serve requests that arrive over time. Requests gather individual delay cost while awaiting service, penalizing service latency; an algorithm seeks to minimize both its movement cost and the total delay cost. Algorithms for the problem (on general metric spaces) are only known for the clairvoyant model, where the algorithm knows future delay cost in advance (e.g., Azar et al., STOC'17; Azar and Touitou, FOCS'19; Touitou, STOC'23). However, in the non-clairvoyant setting, only negative results are known: where n is the size of the metric space and m is the number of requests, there are lower bounds of Ω(√n) and Ω(√m) on competitiveness (Azar et al., STOC'17), that hold even for randomized algorithms (Le et al., SODA'23). In this paper, we present the first algorithm for non-clairvoyant online service with delay. Our algorithm is deterministic and O(min{√n log n, √m log m})-competitive; combined with the lower bounds of Azar et al., this settles the correct competitive ratio for the problem up to logarithmic factors, in terms of both n and m.

Colorful Vertex Recoloring of Bipartite Graphs

Authors: Boaz Patt-Shamir, Adi Rosén, and Seeun William Umboh

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

Abstract
We consider the problem of vertex recoloring: we are given n vertices with their initial coloring, and edges arrive in an online fashion. The algorithm is required to maintain a valid coloring by means of vertex recoloring, where recoloring a vertex incurs a cost. The problem abstracts a scenario of job placement in machines (possibly in the cloud), where vertices represent jobs, colors represent machines, and edges represent "anti affinity" (disengagement) constraints. Online coloring in this setting is a hard problem, and only a few cases were analyzed. One family of instances which is fairly well-understood is bipartite graphs, i.e., instances in which two colors are sufficient to satisfy all constraints. In this case it is known that the competitive ratio of vertex recoloring is Θ(log n). In this paper we propose a generalization of the problem, which allows using additional colors (possibly at a higher cost), to improve overall performance. Concretely, we analyze the simple case of bipartite graphs of bounded largest bond (a bond of a connected graph is an edge-cut that partitions the graph into two connected components). From the upper bound perspective, we propose two algorithms. One algorithm exhibits a trade-off for the uniform-cost case: given Ω(logβ) ≤ c ≤ O(log n) colors, the algorithm guarantees that its cost is at most O((log n)/c) times the optimal offline cost for two colors, where n is the number of vertices and β is the size of the largest bond of the graph. The other algorithm is designed for the case where the additional colors come at a higher cost, D > 1: given Δ additional colors, where Δ is the maximum degree in the graph, the algorithm guarantees a competitive ratio of O(log D). From the lower bounds viewpoint, we show that if the cost of the extra colors is D > 1, no algorithm (even randomized) can achieve a competitive ratio of o(log D). We also show that in the case of general bipartite graphs (i.e., of unbounded bond size), any deterministic online algorithm has competitive ratio Ω(min(D,log n)).

Online Matching with Delays and Size-Based Costs

Authors: Yasushi Kawase and Tomohiro Nakayoshi

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

Abstract
In this paper, we introduce the problem of Online Matching with Delays and Size-based Costs (OMDSC). The OMDSC problem involves m requests arriving online. At any time, a group can be formed by matching any number of requests that have been received but remain unmatched. The cost associated with each group is determined by the waiting time for each request within the group and size-dependent cost. The size-dependent cost is specified by a penalty function. Our goal is to partition all the incoming requests into multiple groups while minimizing the total associated cost. This problem is an extension of the TCP acknowledgment problem proposed by Dooly et al. (J. ACM, 2001). It generalizes the cost model for sending acknowledgments. This study reveals the competitive ratios for a fundamental case, in which the penalty function takes only values of either 0 or 1. We classify such penalty functions into three distinct cases: (i) a fixed penalty of 1 regardless of the group size, (ii) a penalty of 0 if and only if the group size is a multiple of a specific integer k, and (iii) other situations. The problem in case (i) is equivalent to the TCP acknowledgment problem, for which Dooly et al. proposed a 2-competitive algorithm. For case (ii), we first show that natural algorithms that match all remaining requests are Ω(√k)-competitive. We then propose an O(log k / log log k)-competitive deterministic algorithm by carefully managing the match size and timing, and prove its optimality. For any penalty function in case (iii), we demonstrate the non-existence of a competitive online algorithm. Additionally, we discuss competitive ratios for other typical penalty functions that are not restricted to take values of 0 or 1.

Authors: Marcin Bienkowski, Jarosław Byrka, and Łukasz Jeż

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

Abstract
In the online disjoint set covers problem, the edges of a hypergraph are revealed online, and the goal is to partition them into a maximum number of disjoint set covers. That is, n nodes of a hypergraph are given at the beginning, and then a sequence of hyperedges (subsets of [n]) is presented to an algorithm. For each hyperedge, an online algorithm must assign a color (an integer). Once an input terminates, the gain of the algorithm is the number of colors that correspond to valid set covers (i.e., the union of hyperedges that have that color contains all n nodes). We present a deterministic online algorithm that is O(log² n)-competitive, exponentially improving on the previous bound of O(n) and matching the performance of the best randomized algorithm by Emek et al. [ESA 2019]. For color selection, our algorithm uses a novel potential function, which can be seen as an online counterpart of the derandomization method of conditional probabilities and pessimistic estimators. There are only a few cases where derandomization has been successfully used in the field of online algorithms. In contrast to previous approaches, our result extends to the following new challenges: (i) the potential function derandomizes not only the Chernoff bound, but also the coupon collector’s problem, (ii) the value of Opt of the maximization problem is not bounded a priori, and (iii) we do not produce a fractional solution first, but work directly on the input.

Universal Optimization for Non-Clairvoyant Subadditive Joint Replenishment

Authors: Tomer Ezra, Stefano Leonardi, Michał Pawłowski, Matteo Russo, and Seeun William Umboh

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 317, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2024)

Abstract
The online joint replenishment problem (JRP) is a fundamental problem in the area of online problems with delay. Over the last decade, several works have studied generalizations of JRP with different cost functions for servicing requests. Most prior works on JRP and its generalizations have focused on the clairvoyant setting. Recently, Touitou [Noam Touitou, 2023] developed a non-clairvoyant framework that provided an O(√{n log n}) upper bound for a wide class of generalized JRP, where n is the number of request types. We advance the study of non-clairvoyant algorithms by providing a simpler, modular framework that matches the competitive ratio established by Touitou for the same class of generalized JRP. Our key insight is to leverage universal algorithms for Set Cover to approximate arbitrary monotone subadditive functions using a simple class of functions termed disjoint. This allows us to reduce the problem to several independent instances of the TCP Acknowledgement problem, for which a simple 2-competitive non-clairvoyant algorithm is known. The modularity of our framework is a major advantage as it allows us to tailor the reduction to specific problems and obtain better competitive ratios. In particular, we obtain tight O(√n)-competitive algorithms for two significant problems: Multi-Level Aggregation and Weighted Symmetric Subadditive Joint Replenishment. We also show that, in contrast, Touitou’s algorithm is Ω(√{n log n})-competitive for both of these problems.

Maximum Unique Coverage on Streams: Improved FPT Approximation Scheme and Tighter Space Lower Bound

Authors: Philip Cervenjak, Junhao Gan, Seeun William Umboh, and Anthony Wirth

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 317, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2024)

Abstract
We consider the Max Unique Coverage problem, including applications to the data stream model. The input is a universe of n elements, a collection of m subsets of this universe, and a cardinality constraint, k. The goal is to select a subcollection of at most k sets that maximizes unique coverage, i.e, the number of elements contained in exactly one of the selected sets. The Max Unique Coverage problem has applications in wireless networks, radio broadcast, and envy-free pricing. Our first main result is a fixed-parameter tractable approximation scheme (FPT-AS) for Max Unique Coverage, parameterized by k and the maximum element frequency, r, which can be implemented on a data stream. Our FPT-AS finds a (1-ε)-approximation while maintaining a kernel of size Õ(k r/ε), which can be combined with subsampling to use Õ(k² r / ε³) space overall. This significantly improves on the previous-best FPT-AS with the same approximation, but a kernel of size Õ(k² r / ε²). In order to achieve our first result, we show upper bounds on the ratio of a collection’s coverage to the unique coverage of a maximizing subcollection; this is by constructing explicit algorithms that find a subcollection with unique coverage at least a logarithmic ratio of the collection’s coverage. We complement our algorithms with our second main result, showing that Ω(m / k²) space is necessary to achieve a (1.5 + o(1))/(ln k - 1)-approximation in the data stream. This dramatically improves the previous-best lower bound showing that Ω(m / k²) is necessary to achieve better than a e^{-1+1/k}-approximation.

Online Matching with Set and Concave Delays

Authors: Lindsey Deryckere and Seeun William Umboh

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 275, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2023)

Abstract
We initiate the study of online problems with set delay, where the delay cost at any given time is an arbitrary function of the set of pending requests. In particular, we study the online min-cost perfect matching with set delay (MPMD-Set) problem, which generalises the online min-cost perfect matching with delay (MPMD) problem introduced by Emek et al. (STOC 2016). In MPMD, m requests arrive over time in a metric space of n points. When a request arrives the algorithm must choose to either match or delay the request. The goal is to create a perfect matching of all requests while minimising the sum of distances between matched requests, and the total delay costs incurred by each of the requests. In contrast to previous work we study MPMD-Set in the non-clairvoyant setting, where the algorithm does not know the future delay costs. We first show no algorithm is competitive in n or m. We then study the natural special case of size-based delay where the delay is a non-decreasing function of the number of unmatched requests. Our main result is the first non-clairvoyant algorithms for online min-cost perfect matching with size-based delay that are competitive in terms of m. In fact, these are the first non-clairvoyant algorithms for any variant of MPMD. A key technical ingredient is an analog of the symmetric difference of matchings that may be useful for other special classes of set delay. Furthermore, we prove a lower bound of Ω(n) for any deterministic algorithm and Ω(log n) for any randomised algorithm. These lower bounds also hold for clairvoyant algorithms. Finally, we also give an m-competitive deterministic algorithm for uniform concave delays in the clairvoyant setting.

Nested Active-Time Scheduling

Authors: Nairen Cao, Jeremy T. Fineman, Shi Li, Julián Mestre, Katina Russell, and Seeun William Umboh

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 248, 33rd International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2022)

Abstract
The active-time scheduling problem considers the problem of scheduling preemptible jobs with windows (release times and deadlines) on a parallel machine that can schedule up to g jobs during each timestep. The goal in the active-time problem is to minimize the number of active steps, i.e., timesteps in which at least one job is scheduled. In this way, the active time models parallel scheduling when there is a fixed cost for turning the machine on at each discrete step. This paper presents a 9/5-approximation algorithm for a special case of the active-time scheduling problem in which job windows are laminar (nested). This result improves on the previous best 2-approximation for the general case.

Online Weighted Cardinality Joint Replenishment Problem with Delay

Authors: Ryder Chen, Jahanvi Khatkar, and Seeun William Umboh

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

Abstract
We study a generalization of the classic Online Joint Replenishment Problem (JRP) with Delays that we call the Online Weighted Cardinality JRP with Delays. The JRP is an extensively studied inventory management problem wherein requests for different item types arrive at various points in time. A request is served by ordering its corresponding item type. The cost of serving a set of requests depends on the item types ordered. Furthermore, each request incurs a delay penalty while it is left unserved. The objective is to minimise the total service and delay costs. In the Weighted Cardinality JRP, each item type has a positive weight and the cost of ordering is a non-decreasing, concave function of the total weight of the item types ordered. This problem was first considered in the offline setting by Cheung et al. (2015) but nothing is known in the online setting. Our main result is a deterministic, constant competitive algorithm for this problem.

On the Extended TSP Problem

Authors: Julián Mestre, Sergey Pupyrev, and Seeun William Umboh

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 212, 32nd International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2021)

Abstract
We initiate the theoretical study of Ext-TSP, a problem that originates in the area of profile-guided binary optimization. Given a graph G = (V, E) with positive edge weights w: E → R^+, and a non-increasing discount function f(⋅) such that f(1) = 1 and f(i) = 0 for i > k, for some parameter k that is part of the problem definition. The problem is to sequence the vertices V so as to maximize ∑_{(u, v) ∈ E} f(|d_u - d_v|)⋅ w(u,v), where d_v ∈ {1, …, |V|} is the position of vertex v in the sequence. We show that Ext-TSP is APX-hard to approximate in general and we give a (k+1)-approximation algorithm for general graphs and a PTAS for some sparse graph classes such as planar or treewidth-bounded graphs. Interestingly, the problem remains challenging even on very simple graph classes; indeed, there is no exact n^o(k) time algorithm for trees unless the ETH fails. We complement this negative result with an exact n^O(k) time algorithm for trees.
