We present an algorithm that given any $n$-vertex, $m$-edge, rank $r$ hypergraph constructs a spectral sparsifier with $O(n \varepsilon^{-2} \log n \log r)$ hyperedges in nearly-linear $\widetilde{O}(mr)$ time. This improves in both size…
A $(1 \pm \epsilon)$-sparsifier of a hypergraph $G(V,E)$ is a (weighted) subgraph that preserves the value of every cut to within a $(1 \pm \epsilon)$-factor. It is known that every hypergraph with $n$ vertices admits a $(1 \pm…
