We introduce a novel amortised resource analysis couched in a type-and-effect system. Our analysis is formulated in terms of the physicist's method of amortised analysis, and is potential-based. The type system makes use of logarithmic…
We present $O(\log\log n)$ round scalable Massively Parallel Computation algorithms for maximal independent set and maximal matching, in trees and more generally graphs of bounded arboricity, as well as for constant coloring trees.…
The B-tree is a fundamental secondary index structure that is widely used for answering one-dimensional range reporting queries. Given a set of $N$ keys, a range query can be answered in $O(\log_B \nm + \frac{K}{B})$ I/Os, where $B$ is the…
We give an algorithm to enumerate the results on trees of monadic second-order (MSO) queries represented by nondeterministic tree automata. After linear time preprocessing (in the input tree), we can enumerate answers with linear delay (in…
Ordered sequences of data, specified with a join operation to combine sequences, serve as a foundation for the implementation of parallel functional algorithms. This abstract data type can be elegantly and efficiently implemented using…
Self-adjusting data structures are a classic approach to adapting the complexity of operations to the data access distribution. While several self-adjusting variants are known for both binary search trees and B-Trees, existing constructions…
In this paper, we reduce the complexity of approximating the correlation clustering problem from $O(m\times\left( 2+ \alpha (G) \right)+n)$ to $O(m+n)$ for any given value of $\varepsilon$ for a complete signed graph with $n$ vertices and…
Trees are useful entities allowing to model data structures and hierarchical relationships in networked decision systems ubiquitously. An ordered tree is a rooted tree where the order of the subtrees (children) of a node is significant. In…
Recombining trinomial trees are a workhorse for modeling discrete-event systems in option pricing, logistics, and feedback control. Because each node stores a state-dependent quantity, a depth-$D$ tree naively yields $\mathcal{O}(3^{D})$…
An AVL tree is the original type of balanced binary search tree. An insertion in an $n$-node AVL tree takes at most two rotations, but a deletion in an $n$-node AVL tree can take $\Theta(\log n)$. A natural question is whether deletions can…
Quantum search is a quantum mechanical technique for searching N possibilities in only sqrt(N) steps. This has been proved to be the best possible algorithm for the exhuastive search problem in the sense the number of queries it requires…
In this study, we address the independent set enumeration problem. Although several efficient enumeration algorithms and careful analyses have been proposed for maximal independent sets, no fine-grained analysis has been given for the…
The {Congested Clique} is a distributed-computing model for single-hop networks with restricted bandwidth that has been very intensively studied recently. It models a network by an $n$-vertex graph in which any pair of vertices can…
We study the complexity of finding communication trees with the lowest possible completion time for rooted, irregular gather and scatter collective communication operations in fully connected, $k$-ported communication networks under a…
We analyze union-find using potential functions motivated by continuous algorithms, and give alternate proofs of the $O(\log\log{n})$, $O(\log^{*}n)$, $O(\log^{**}n)$, and $O(\alpha(n))$ amortized cost upper bounds. The proof of the…
Tree data structures, such as red-black trees, quad trees, treaps, or tries, are fundamental tools in computer science. A classical problem in concurrency is to obtain expressive, efficient, and scalable versions of practical tree data…

In structurally constrained molecular optimization, state-of-the-art methods restart an expensive oracle-driven search from scratch for every new input structure, scaling poorly to settings with many starting structures or expensive…
This paper presents a new kind of self-balancing ternary search trie that uses a randomized balancing strategy adapted from Aragon and Seidel's randomized binary search trees ("treaps"). After any sequence of insertions and deletions of…
The quality of enumeration algorithms is often measured by their delay, that is, the maximal time spent between the output of two distinct solutions. If the goal is to enumerate $t$ distinct solutions for any given $t$, then another…
