We present a series of results regarding conceptually simple algorithms for bipartite matching in various online and related models. We first consider a deterministic adversarial model. The best approximation ratio possible for a one-pass…
In the Maxmin E$k$-SAT Reconfiguration problem, we are given a satisfiable $k$-CNF formula $\varphi$ where each clause contains exactly $k$ literals, along with a pair of its satisfying assignments. The objective is transform one satisfying…
A long-standing open question is which graph class is the most general one permitting constant-time constant-factor approximations for dominating sets. The approximation ratio has been bounded by increasingly general parameters such as…
This paper proposes an adaptive transmission algorithm for slotted random access systems supporting the successive interference cancellation (SIC) at the access point (AP). When multiple users transmit packets simultaneously in a slot,…
A $k$-uniform hypergraph $H = (V, E)$ is called $\ell$-orientable, if there is an assignment of each edge $e\in E$ to one of its vertices $v\in e$ such that no vertex is assigned more than $\ell$ edges. Let $H_{n,m,k}$ be a hypergraph,…
Optimal queueing control of multi-hop networks remains a challenging problem even in the simplest scenarios. In this paper, we consider a two-hop half-duplex relaying system with random channel connectivity. The relay is equipped with a…
In many real life situations, including job and loan applications, gatekeepers must make justified and fair real-time decisions about a person's fitness for a particular opportunity. In this paper, we aim to accomplish approximate group…
In this work we suggest a new model for generating random satisfiable k-CNF formulas. To generate such formulas -- randomly permute all 2^k\binom{n}{k} possible clauses over the variables x_1, ..., x_n, and starting from the empty formula,…
We address the open problem of training hypernetworks for Controllable Pareto Front Learning (CPFL) under split feasibility conditions with rigorous theoretical guarantees. We reformulate the constrained Pareto problem as a Bi-Level…
We consider an online network routing problem in continuous time, where calls have Poisson arrivals and exponential durations. The first-fit dynamic alternative routing algorithm sequentially selects up to $d$ random two-link routes between…
We study the $b$-matching problem in bipartite graphs $G=(S,R,E)$. Each vertex $s\in S$ is a server with individual capacity $b_s$. The vertices $r\in R$ are requests that arrive online and must be assigned instantly to an eligible server.…
The scaling laws guiding modern model training were calibrated for a single regime: data-rich, single-epoch pretraining. The dominant such scaling law form, Chinchilla's $L = E + A/N^\alpha + B/D^\beta$, has three structural limitations…
Makespan minimization in restricted assignment $(R|p_{ij}\in \{p_j, \infty\}|C_{\max})$ is a classical problem in the field of machine scheduling. In a landmark paper in 1990 [8], Lenstra, Shmoys, and Tardos gave a 2-approximation algorithm…
In this paper, we tackle the resolution of chance-constrained problems reformulated via Sample Average Approximation. The resulting data-driven deterministic reformulation takes the form of a large-scale mixed-integer program cursed with…
There has been much recent interest in the satisfiability of random Boolean formulas. A random k-SAT formula is the conjunction of m random clauses, each of which is the disjunction of k literals (a variable or its negation). It is known…
The celebrated Myerson--Satterthwaite theorem shows that in bilateral trade, no mechanism can be simultaneously fully efficient, Bayesian incentive compatible (BIC), and budget balanced (BB). This naturally raises the question of how…
In this paper, we propose $\ell_p$-norm regularized models to seek near-optimal sparse portfolios. These sparse solutions reduce the complexity of portfolio implementation and management. Theoretical results are established to guarantee the…
Stochastic gradient algorithms are more and more studied since they can deal efficiently and online with large samples in high dimensional spaces. In this paper, we first establish a Central Limit Theorem for these estimates as well as for…
We consider the problem of computing all pairs shortest paths (APSP) and shortest paths for k sources in a weighted graph in the distributed CONGEST model. For graphs with non-negative integer edge weights (including zero weights) we build…
The Adaptive Multilevel Splitting algorithm is a very powerful and versatile iterative method to estimate the probability of rare events, based on an interacting particle systems. In an other article, in a so-called idealized setting, the…
