For many hard computational problems, simple algorithms that run in time $2^n \cdot n^{O(1)}$ arise, say, from enumerating all subsets of a size-$n$ set. Finding (exponentially) faster algorithms is a natural goal that has driven much of…
We present the first linear time algorithm to construct the $2n$-bit version of the Lyndon array for a string of length $n$ using only $o(n)$ bits of working space. A simpler variant of this algorithm computes the plain ($n\lg n$-bit)…
In this paper we investigate the problem of partitioning an input string T in such a way that compressing individually its parts via a base-compressor C gets a compressed output that is shorter than applying C over the entire T at once.…
The girth of a graph is the length of its shortest cycle. We give an algorithm that computes in O(n(log n)^3) time and O(n) space the (weighted) girth of an n-vertex planar digraph with arbitrary real edge weights. This is an improvement of…
An algorithm is given to factor an integer with $N$ digits in $\ln^m N$ steps, with $m$ approximately 4 or 5. Textbook quadratic sieve methods are exponentially slower. An improvement with the aid of an a particular function would provide a…
We give a fast algorithm for computing an irreducible triangulation $T^\prime$ of an oriented, connected, boundaryless, and compact surface $S$ in $E^d$ from any given triangulation $T$ of $S$. If the genus $g$ of $S$ is positive, then our…
We give an O(sqrt n log n)-query quantum algorithm for evaluating size-n AND-OR formulas. Its running time is poly-logarithmically greater after efficient preprocessing. Unlike previous approaches, the algorithm is based on a quantum walk…
The best known algorithm to compute the Jacobi symbol of two n-bit integers runs in time O(M(n) log n), using Sch\"onhage's fast continued fraction algorithm combined with an identity due to Gauss. We give a different O(M(n) log n)…
The quest for an algorithm that solves an $n\times n$ linear system in $O(n^2)$ time complexity, or $O(n^2 \text{poly}(1/\epsilon))$ when solving up to $\epsilon$ relative error, is a long-standing open problem in numerical linear algebra…
Let $H$ be a fixed graph and let $G$ be an $H$-minor free $n$-vertex graph with integer edge weights and no negative weight cycles reachable from a given vertex $s$. We present an algorithm that computes a shortest path tree in $G$ rooted…
Quantum computers promise to outperform their classical counterparts at certain tasks. However, existing quantum devices are error-prone and restricted in size. Thus, effective compilation methods are crucial to exploit limited quantum…
Many learning algorithms are formulated in terms of finding model parameters which minimize a data-fitting loss function plus a regularizer. When the regularizer involves the l0 pseudo-norm, the resulting regularization path consists of a…
A polygonal curve $P$ with $n$ vertices is $c$-packed, if the sum of the lengths of the parts of the edges of the curve that are inside any disk of radius $r$ is at most $cr$, for any $r>0$. Similarly, the concept of $c$-packedness can be…
Given a context free language $\mathcal{L(G)}$ over alphabet $\Sigma$ and a string $s \in \Sigma^*$, {\em the language edit distance} problem seeks the minimum number of edits (insertions, deletions and substitutions) required to convert…
This paper deals with circulant matrices. It is shown that a circulant matrix can be multiplied by a vector in time O(n log(n)) in a ring with roots of unity without making use of an FFT algorithm. With our algorithm we achieve a speedup of…
This paper is concerned with the fast computation of Fourier integral operators of the general form $\int_{\R^d} e^{2\pi\i \Phi(x,k)} f(k) d k$, where $k$ is a frequency variable, $\Phi(x,k)$ is a phase function obeying a standard…
Given a simple weighted directed graph $G = (V, E, \omega)$ on $n$ vertices as well as two designated terminals $s, t\in V$, our goal is to compute the shortest path from $s$ to $t$ avoiding any pair of presumably failed edges $f_1, f_2\in…
Kernel methods are powerful tools in statistical learning, but their cubic complexity in the sample size n limits their use on large-scale datasets. In this work, we introduce a scalable framework for kernel regression with O(n log n)…
In bi-objective integer optimization the optimal result corresponds to a set of non-dominated solutions. We propose a generic bi-objective branch-and-bound algorithm that uses a problem-independent branching rule exploiting available…
We consider a problem first proposed by Mahler and Popken in 1953 and later developed by Coppersmith, Erd\H{o}s, Guy, Isbell, Selfridge, and others. Let $f(n)$ be the complexity of $n \in \mathbb{Z^{+}}$, where $f(n)$ is defined as the…
