We resolve the space complexity of linear sketches for approximating the maximum matching problem in dynamic graph streams where the stream may include both edge insertion and deletion. Specifically, we show that for any $\epsilon > 0$,…

Dimensionality reduction via linear sketching is a powerful and widely used technique, but it is known to be vulnerable to adversarial inputs. We study the black-box adversarial setting, where a fixed, hidden sketching matrix $A \in R^{k…

In the adversarially robust streaming model, a stream of elements is presented to an algorithm and is allowed to depend on the output of the algorithm at earlier times during the stream. In the classic insertion-only model of data streams,…

A longstanding observation, which was partially proven in \cite{LNW14,AHLW16}, is that any turnstile streaming algorithm can be implemented as a linear sketch (the reverse is trivially true). We study the relationship between turnstile…

We investigate the adversarial robustness of streaming algorithms. In this context, an algorithm is considered robust if its performance guarantees hold even if the stream is chosen adaptively by an adversary that observes the outputs of…

We study adversarially robust algorithms for insertion-deletion (turnstile) streams, where future updates may depend on past algorithm outputs. While robust algorithms exist for insertion-only streams with only a polylogarithmic overhead in…

A fundamental question in streaming complexity is whether every space-efficient turnstile algorithm is implicitly a linear sketch. The landmark work of Li, Nguyen, and Woodruff [LNW14] established an equivalence between the two, but their…
