Separable Convex Mixed-Integer Optimization: Improved Algorithms and Lower Bounds

Authors: Cornelius Brand, Martin Koutecký, Alexandra Lassota, and Sebastian Ordyniak

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 308, 32nd Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2024)

Abstract
We provide several novel algorithms and lower bounds in central settings of mixed-integer (non-)linear optimization, shedding new light on classic results in the field. This includes an improvement on record running time bounds obtained from a slight extension of Lenstra’s 1983 algorithm [Math. Oper. Res. '83] to optimizing under few constraints with small coefficients. This is important for ubiquitous tasks like knapsack-, subset sum- or scheduling problems [Eisenbrand and Weismantel, SODA'18, Jansen and Rohwedder, ITCS'19]. Further, we extend our algorithm to an intermediate linear optimization problem when the matrix has many rows that exhibit 2-stage stochastic structure, which adds to a prominent line of recent results on this and similarly restricted cases [Jansen et al. ICALP'19, Cslovjecsek et al. SODA'21, Brand et al. AAAI'21, Klein, Reuter SODA'22, Cslovjecsek et al. SODA'24]. We also show that the generalization of two fundamental classes of structured constraints from these works (n-fold and 2-stage stochastic programs) to separable-convex mixed-integer optimization are harder than their mixed-integer, linear counterparts. This counters a widespread belief popularized initially by an influential paper of Hochbaum and Shanthikumar, namely that "convex separable optimization is not much harder than linear optimization" [J. ACM '90]. To obtain our algorithms, we employ the mixed Graver basis introduced by Hemmecke [Math. Prog. '03], and our work is the first to give bounds on the norm of its elements. Importantly, we use these bounds differently from how purely-integer Graver bounds are exploited in related approaches, and prove that, surprisingly, this cannot be avoided.

Parameterized Algorithms on Integer Sets with Small Doubling: Integer Programming, Subset Sum and k-SUM

Authors: Tim Randolph and Karol Węgrzycki

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 308, 32nd Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2024)

Abstract
We study the parameterized complexity of algorithmic problems whose input is an integer set A in terms of the doubling constant 𝒞 := |A+A| / |A|, a fundamental measure of additive structure. We present evidence that this new parameterization is algorithmically useful in the form of new results for two difficult, well-studied problems: Integer Programming and Subset Sum. First, we show that determining the feasibility of bounded Integer Programs is a tractable problem when parameterized in the doubling constant. Specifically, we prove that the feasibility of an integer program ℐ with n polynomially-bounded variables and m constraints can be determined in time n^{O_𝒞(1)} ⋅ poly(|ℐ|) when the column set of the constraint matrix has doubling constant 𝒞. Second, we show that the Subset Sum and Unbounded Subset Sum problems can be solved in time n^{O_C(1)} and n^{O_𝒞(log log log n)}, respectively, where the O_C notation hides functions that depend only on the doubling constant 𝒞. We also show the equivalence of achieving an FPT algorithm for Subset Sum with bounded doubling and achieving a milestone result for the parameterized complexity of Box ILP. Finally, we design near-linear time algorithms for k-SUM as well as tight lower bounds for 4-SUM and nearly tight lower bounds for k-SUM, under the k-SUM conjecture. Several of our results rely on a new proof that Freiman’s Theorem, a central result in additive combinatorics, can be made efficiently constructive. This result may be of independent interest.

Efficient Sequential and Parallel Algorithms for Multistage Stochastic Integer Programming Using Proximity

Authors: Jana Cslovjecsek, Friedrich Eisenbrand, Michał Pilipczuk, Moritz Venzin, and Robert Weismantel

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 204, 29th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2021)

Abstract
We consider the problem of solving integer programs of the form min {c^⊺ x : Ax = b, x ∈ ℤ_{⩾ 0}}, where A is a multistage stochastic matrix in the following sense: the primal treedepth of A is bounded by a parameter d, which means that the columns of A can be organized into a rooted forest of depth at most d so that columns not bound by the ancestor/descendant relation do not have non-zero entries in the same row. We give an algorithm that solves this problem in fixed-parameter time f(d,‖A‖_{∞})⋅ nlog^{𝒪(2^d)} n, where f is a computable function and n is the number of rows of A. The algorithm works in the strong model, where the running time only measures unit arithmetic operations on the input numbers and does not depend on their bitlength. This is the first fpt algorithm for multistage stochastic integer programming to achieve almost linear running time in the strong sense. For two-stage stochastic integer programs, our algorithm works in time 2^{((r+s)‖A‖_∞)^{𝒪(r(r+s))}}⋅ nlog^{𝒪(rs)} n, which improves over previous methods both in terms of the polynomial factor and in terms of the dependence on r and s. In fact, for r = 1 the dependence on s is asymptotically almost tight assuming the Exponential Time Hypothesis. Our algorithm can be also parallelized: we give an implementation in the PRAM model that achieves running time f(d,‖A‖_{∞})⋅ log^{𝒪(2^d)} n using n processors. The main conceptual ingredient in our algorithms is a new proximity result for multistage stochastic integer programs. We prove that if we consider an integer program P, say with a constraint matrix A, then for every optimum solution to the linear relaxation of P there exists an optimum (integral) solution to P that lies, in the 𝓁_{∞}-norm, within distance bounded by a function of ‖A‖_{∞} and the primal treedepth of A. On the way to achieve this result, we prove a generalization and considerable improvement of a structural result of Klein for multistage stochastic integer programs. Once the proximity results are established, this allows us to apply a treedepth-based branching strategy guided by an optimum solution to the linear relaxation.

Approximate CVP_p in Time 2^{0.802 n}

Authors: Friedrich Eisenbrand and Moritz Venzin

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 173, 28th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2020)

Abstract
We show that a constant factor approximation of the shortest and closest lattice vector problem w.r.t. any 𝓁_p-norm can be computed in time 2^{(0.802 +ε) n}. This matches the currently fastest constant factor approximation algorithm for the shortest vector problem w.r.t. 𝓁₂. To obtain our result, we combine the latter algorithm w.r.t. 𝓁₂ with geometric insights related to coverings.
