The constructive Lov\'{a}sz Local Lemma has become a central tool for designing efficient distributed algorithms. While it has been extensively studied in the classic LOCAL model that uses unlimited bandwidth, much less is known in the…
The resampling algorithm of Moser \& Tardos is a powerful approach to develop constructive versions of the Lov\'{a}sz Local Lemma (LLL). We generalize this to partial resampling: when a bad event holds, we resample an appropriately-random…
We consider the recent formulation of the Algorithmic Lov\'asz Local Lemma [10,2,3] for finding objects that avoid `bad features', or `flaws'. It extends the Moser-Tardos resampling algorithm [17] to more general discrete spaces. At each…
We study a variant of the parallel Moser-Tardos Algorithm. We prove that if we restrict attention to a class of problems whose dependency graphs have subexponential growth, then the expected total number of random bits used by the algorithm…
Shearer gave a general theorem characterizing the family $\LLL$ of dependency graphs labeled with probabilities $p_v$ which have the property that for any family of events with a dependency graph from $\LLL$ (whose vertex-labels are upper…
We consider recent formulations of the algorithmic Lovasz Local Lemma by Achlioptas-Iliopoulos-Kolmogorov [2] and by Achlioptas-Iliopoulos-Sinclair [3]. These papers analyze a random walk algorithm for finding objects that avoid undesired…
The recently proven Quantum Lovasz Local Lemma generalises the well-known Lovasz Local Lemma. It states that, if a collection of subspace constraints are "weakly dependent", there necessarily exists a state satisfying all constraints. It…
Following the groundbreaking Moser-Tardos algorithm for the Lovasz Local Lemma (LLL), a series of works have exploited a key ingredient of the original analysis, the witness tree lemma, in order to: derive deterministic, parallel and…
Our previous paper applied a lopsided version of the Lov\'asz Local Lemma that allows negative dependency graphs to the space of random injections from an $m$-element set to an $n$-element set. Equivalently, the same story can be told about…
We provide a gentle introduction, aimed at non-experts, to Borel combinatorics that studies definable graphs on topological spaces. This is an emerging field on the borderline between combinatorics and descriptive set theory with deep…
In a seminal paper (Moser and Tardos, JACM'10), Moser and Tardos developed a simple and powerful algorithm to find solutions to combinatorial problems in the variable Lov{\'a}sz Local Lemma (LLL) setting. Kolipaka and Szegedy (STOC'11)…
This note is purely expository and is in Russian. We show how to prove interesting combinatorial results using the local Lovasz lemma. The note is accessible for students having basic knowledge of combinatorics; the notion of independence…
A locally checkable labeling problem (LCL) on a group $\Gamma$ asks one to find a labeling of the Cayley graph of $\Gamma$ satisfying a fixed, finite set of "local" constraints. Typical examples include proper coloring and perfect matching…
We consider several examples of probabilistic existence proofs using compressibility arguments, including some results that involve Lov\'asz local lemma.
A recent theorem of Bissacot, et al. proved using results about the cluster expansion in statistical mechanics extends the Lov\'asz Local Lemma by weakening the conditions under which its conclusions holds. In this note, we prove an…
We prove game-theoretic versions of several classical results on nonrepetitive sequences, showing the existence of winning strategies using an extension of the Lov\'asz Local Lemma which can dramatically reduce the number of edges needed in…
Following the groundbreaking algorithm of Moser and Tardos for the Lovasz Local Lemma (LLL), there has been a plethora of results analyzing local search algorithms for various constraint satisfaction problems. The algorithms considered fall…
We present a poly $\log \log n$ time randomized CONGEST algorithm for a natural class of Lovasz Local Lemma (LLL) instances on constant degree graphs. This implies, among other things, that there are no LCL problems with randomized…
In this work, we study the Lov\'asz local lemma (LLL) problem in the area of distributed quantum computing, which has been the focus of attention of recent advances in quantum computing [STOC'24, STOC'25, STOC'25]. We prove a lower bound of…
In the framework of the probabilistic method in combinatorics, we revisit the entropy compression method clarifying the setting in which it can be applied and providing a theorem yielding a general constructive criterion. We finally…
