Hashing method maps similar high-dimensional data to binary hashcodes with smaller hamming distance, and it has received broad attention due to its low storage cost and fast retrieval speed. Pairwise similarity is easily obtained and widely…
In a seminal paper, Erdos and Renyi identified the threshold for connectivity of the random graph G(n,p). In particular, they showed that if p >> log(n)/n then G(n,p) is almost always connected, and if p << log(n)/n then G(n,p) is almost…
Hierarchical clustering is a fundamental task often used to discover meaningful structures in data, such as phylogenetic trees, taxonomies of concepts, subtypes of cancer, and cascades of particle decays in particle physics. Typically…
Given a hypergraph $H = (V,E)$, what is the smallest subset $X \subseteq V$ such that $e \cap X \neq \emptyset$ holds for all $e \in E$? This problem, known as the hitting set problem, is a basic problem in parameterized complexity theory.…
We consider a variation of balls-into-bins which randomly allocates $m$ balls into $n$ bins. Following Godfrey's model (SODA, 2008), we assume that each ball $t$, $1\le t\le m$, comes with a hypergraph…
A fundamental algorithmic problem at the heart of static analysis is Dyck reachability. The input is a graph where the edges are labeled with different types of opening and closing parentheses, and the reachability information is computed…

Let $r \ge 2$ be a fixed constant and let $ {\mathcal H}$ be an $r$-uniform, $D$-regular hypergraph on $N$ vertices. Assume further that $ D \to \infty$ as $N \to \infty$ and that degrees of pairs of vertices in ${\mathcal H}$ are at most…

Clustering complex data in the form of attributed graphs has attracted increasing attention, where powerful graph representation is a critical prerequisite. However, the well-known Over-Smoothing (OS) effect makes Graph Convolutional…
The theme of this paper is the derivation of analytic formulae for certain large combinatorial structures. The formulae are obtained via fluid limits of pure jump-type Markov processes, established under simple conditions on the Laplace…
Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in ${\mathbb R}^{d}$. A point $p \in P$ is $k$\emph{-shallow} if it lies in a halfspace which contains at most $k$ points of $P$ (including $p$). We show that if all points of $P$ are $k$-shallow, then $P$ can…
An $\ell$-lift of a graph $G$ is any graph obtained by replacing every vertex of $G$ with an independent set of size $\ell$, and connecting every pair of two such independent sets that correspond to an edge in $G$ by a matching of size…
Thresholding--the pruning of nodes or edges based on their properties or weights--is an essential preprocessing tool for extracting interpretable structure from complex network data, yet existing methods face several key limitations.…
An $\ell$-page stack layout (also known as an $\ell$-page book embedding) of a graph is a linear order of the vertex set together with a partition of the edge set into $\ell$ stacks (or pages), such that the endpoints of no two edges on the…
The holographic entropy cone characterizes the relations between entanglement entropies for a spatial partitioning of the boundary spacetime of a holographic CFT in any state describing a classical bulk geometry. We argue that the…
A perfect matching in a hypergraph is a set of edges that partition the set of vertices. We study the complexity of deciding the existence of a perfect matching in orderable and separable hypergraphs. We show that the class of orderable…
In this paper, we consider an infinite dimensional exponential family, $\mathcal{P}$ of probability densities, which are parametrized by functions in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space, $H$ and show it to be quite rich in the sense that a…
Visual geolocalization, the task of predicting where an image was taken, remains challenging due to global scale, visual ambiguity, and the inherently hierarchical structure of geography. Existing paradigms rely on either large-scale…
Hyperbolicity is a graph parameter related to how much a graph resembles a tree with respect to distances. Its computation is challenging as the main approaches consist in scanning all quadruples of the graph or using fast matrix…
