We consider the problem of preprocessing an $n\times n$ matrix $\mathbf{M}$, and supporting queries that, for any vector $v$, returns the matrix-vector product $\mathbf{M} v$. This problem has been extensively studied in both theory and…
Consider the following Online Boolean Matrix-Vector Multiplication problem: We are given an $n\times n$ matrix $M$ and will receive $n$ column-vectors of size $n$, denoted by $v_1,\ldots,v_n$, one by one. After seeing each vector $v_i$, we…
We study the Matrix Multiplication Verification Problem (MMV) where the goal is, given three $n \times n$ matrices $A$, $B$, and $C$ as input, to decide whether $AB = C$. A classic randomized algorithm by Freivalds (MFCS, 1979) solves MMV…
In the Orthogonal Vectors (OV) problem, we wish to determine if there is an orthogonal pair of vectors among $n$ Boolean vectors in $d$ dimensions. The OV Conjecture (OVC) posits that OV requires $n^{2-o(1)}$ time to solve, for all…
We revisit the fundamental Boolean Matrix Multiplication (BMM) problem. With the invention of algebraic fast matrix multiplication over 50 years ago, it also became known that BMM can be solved in truly subcubic $O(n^\omega)$ time, where…
We prove new upper and lower bounds for the Online Orthogonal Vectors Problem ($\mathsf{OnlineOV}_{n,d}$). In this problem, a preprocessing algorithm receives $n$ vectors $x_1,\ldots,x_n\in\{0,1\}^d$ and constructs a data structure of size…

In the Orthogonal Vectors problem (OV), we are given two families $A, B$ of subsets of $\{1,\ldots,d\}$, each of size $n$, and the task is to decide whether there exists a pair $a \in A$ and $b \in B$ such that $a \cap b = \emptyset$.…
The Orthogonal Vectors problem ($\textsf{OV}$) asks: given $n$ vectors in $\{0,1\}^{O(\log n)}$, are two of them orthogonal? $\textsf{OV}$ is easily solved in $O(n^2 \log n)$ time, and it is a central problem in fine-grained complexity:…
This paper presents a quantum algorithm that computes the product of two $n\times n$ Boolean matrices in $\tilde O(n\sqrt{\ell}+\ell\sqrt{n})$ time, where $\ell$ is the number of non-zero entries in the product. This improves the previous…
We present a new combinatorial algorithm for triangle finding and Boolean matrix multiplication that runs in $\hat{O}(n^3/\log^4 n)$ time, where the $\hat{O}$ notation suppresses poly(loglog) factors. This improves the previous best…
We show, for the input vectors $(a_0, a_1, ..., a_{n-1})$ and $(b_0, b_1, ..., b_{n-1})$, where $a_i$'s and $b_j$'s are real numbers, after $O(n\log^4 n)$ time preprocessing for each of them, the vector multiplication $(a_0, a_1, ...,…
