Recent advancements in neutral atom platforms have enabled exploration of early fault-tolerant (FT) architectures for applications with quantum advantage, such as quantum dynamics simulations. An efficient fault-tolerant architecture has…
In this paper, we study a fault-tolerant control for systems consisting of multiple homogeneous components such as parallel processing machines. This type of system is often more robust to uncertainty compared to those with a single…
A matroid is a combinatorial structure that captures and generalizes the algebraic concept of linear independence under a broader and more abstract framework. Matroids are closely related with many other topics in discrete mathematics, such…
We consider the following Stochastic Boolean Function Evaluation problem, which is closely related to several problems from the literature. A matroid $\mathcal{M}$ (in compact representation) on ground set $E$ is given, and each element…
Deciding feasibility of large systems of linear equations and inequalities is one of the most fundamental algorithmic tasks. However, due to data inaccuracies or modeling errors, in practical applications one often faces linear systems that…
Abasi et al. (2014) and Gabizon et al. (2015) studied the following problems. In the $r$-Simple $k$-Path problem, given a digraph $G$ on $n$ vertices and integers $r,k$, decide whether $G$ has an $r$-simple $k$-path, which is a walk where…
Maximizing a submodular function is a fundamental task in machine learning and in this paper we study the deletion robust version of the problem under the classic matroids constraint. Here the goal is to extract a small size summary of the…
Motivated by the work of Anstee, Griggs, and Sali on forbidden submatrices and the extremal sat-function for graphs, we introduce sat-type problems for matrices. Let F be a family of k-row matrices. A matrix M is called F-admissible if M…
Frick and Grohe [J. ACM 48 (2006), 1184-1206] introduced a notion of graph classes with locally bounded tree-width and established that every first order logic property can be decided in almost linear time in such a graph class. Here, we…
We study the NP-hard graph problem Collapsed k-Core where, given an undirected graph G and integers b, x, and k, we are asked to remove b vertices such that the k-core of remaining graph, that is, the (uniquely determined) largest induced…
We consider the following natural "above guarantee" parameterization of the classical Longest Path problem: For given vertices s and t of a graph G, and an integer k, the problem Longest Detour asks for an (s,t)-path in G that is at least k…
In the classic $k$-center problem, we are given a metric graph, and the objective is to open $k$ nodes as centers such that the maximum distance from any vertex to its closest center is minimized. In this paper, we consider two important…
Sparse graphs and their associated matroids play an important role in rigidity theory, where they capture the combinatorics of generically rigid structures. We define a new family called {\bf graded sparse graphs}, arising from generically…
This paper addresses the problem of designing a {\em fault-tolerant} $(\alpha, \beta)$ approximate BFS structure (or {\em FT-ABFS structure} for short), namely, a subgraph $H$ of the network $G$ such that subsequent to the failure of some…
Much energy has been devoted to developing a matroid's computational properties, yet parallel algorithm design for matroid optimization seems less understood. Specifically, the current state of the art is a folklore reduction from…
Inspired by the potential of improving tractability via gap- or above-guarantee parametrisations, we investigate the complexity of Dominating Set when given a suitable lower-bound witness. Concretely, we consider being provided with a…
Using fault-tolerant constructions, computations performed with unreliable components can simulate their noiseless counterparts though the introduction of a modest amount of redundancy. Given the modest overhead required to achieve…
The $k$-vertex disjoint paths problem is one of the most studied problems in algorithmic graph theory. In 1994, Schrijver proved that the problem can be solved in polynomial time for every fixed $k$ when restricted to the class of planar…
{\sc Vertex $(s, t)$-Cut} and {\sc Vertex Multiway Cut} are two fundamental graph separation problems in algorithmic graph theory. We study matroidal generalizations of these problems, where in addition to the usual input, we are given a…
Persistence modules stratify their underlying parameter space, a quality that make persistence modules amenable to study via invariants of stratified spaces. In this article, we extend a result previously known only for one-parameter…
