We present a data structure that in a dynamic graph of treedepth at most $d$, which is modified over time by edge insertions and deletions, maintains an optimum-height elimination forest. The data structure achieves worst-case update time…
We investigate the problem of identifying database repairs for missing tuples in query answers. We show that when the query is part of the input - the combined complexity setting - determining whether or not a repair exists is…
In the fillable array problem one must maintain an array A[1..n] of $w$-bit entries subject to random access reads and writes, and also a $\texttt{fill}(\Delta)$ operation which sets every entry of to some $\Delta\in\{0,\ldots,2^w-1\}$. We…
Let $S \subseteq \mathbb{R}^2$ be a set of $n$ \emph{sites} in the plane, so that every site $s \in S$ has an \emph{associated radius} $r_s > 0$. Let $D(S)$ be the \emph{disk intersection graph} defined by $S$, i.e., the graph with vertex…
A new array based data structure named black-white array (BWA) is introduced as an effective and efficient alternative to the list or tree based data structures for dynamic data set. It consists of two sub-arrays, one white and one black of…
For a fixed regular language $L$, the enumeration of $L$-infixes is the following task: we are given an input word $w = a_1 \cdots a_n$ and we must enumerate the infixes of $w$ that belong to $L$, i.e., the pairs $i \leq j$ such that $a_i…
We consider the dichotomy conjecture for consistent query answering under primary key constraints. It states that, for every fixed Boolean conjunctive query q, testing whether q is certain (i.e. whether it evaluates to true over all repairs…

Deep learning often faces the challenge of efficiently processing dynamic inputs, such as sensor data or user inputs. For example, an AI writing assistant is required to update its suggestions in real time as a document is edited.…
Approximate query processing over dynamic databases, i.e., under insertions/deletions, has applications ranging from high-frequency trading to internet-of-things analytics. We present JanusAQP, a new dynamic AQP system, which supports SUM,…
Given a simple $n$-vertex, $m$-edge graph $G$ undergoing edge insertions and deletions, we give two new fully dynamic algorithms for exactly maintaining the edge connectivity of $G$ in $\tilde{O}(n)$ worst-case update time and…
A fundamental question in computational geometry is for a set of input points in the Euclidean space, that is subject to discrete changes (insertion/deletion of points at each time step), whether it is possible to maintain an approximate…
While operations {\em rank} and {\em select} on static bitvectors can be supported in constant time, lower bounds show that supporting updates raises the cost per operation to $\Theta(\log n/ \log\log n)$ on bitvectors holding $n$ bits.…
We consider the problem of maintaining a collection of strings while efficiently supporting splits and concatenations on them, as well as comparing two substrings, and computing the longest common prefix between two suffixes. This problem…
In this article, we study the efficient dynamical computation of all-pairs SimRanks on time-varying graphs. Li {\em et al}.'s approach requires $O(r^4 n^2)$ time and $O(r^2 n^2)$ memory in a graph with $n$ nodes, where $r$ is the target…
The framework of consistent query answers and repairs has been introduced to alleviate the impact of inconsistent data on the answers to a query. A repair is a minimally different consistent instance and an answer is consistent if it is…
Fully dynamic graph is a data structure that (1) supports edge insertions and deletions and (2) answers problem specific queries. The time complexity of (1) and (2) are referred to as the update time and the query time respectively. There…
We study the classical incremental view maintenance problem: Given a query and a database, maintain the query output under single-tuple updates (inserts or deletes) to the database such that the tuples in the query output can be enumerated…
In this paper, we study consistent query answering in tables with nulls and functional dependencies. Given such a table T, we consider the set Tuples of all tuples that can be built up from constants appearing in T, and we use set theoretic…
Local sensitivity of a query Q given a database instance D, i.e. how much the output Q(D) changes when a tuple is added to D or deleted from D, has many applications including query analysis, outlier detection, and in differential privacy.…
