We consider the problem of querying a string (or, a database) of length $N$ bits to determine all the locations where a substring (query) of length $M$ appears either exactly or is within a Hamming distance of $K$ from the query. We assume…
In the decremental $(1+\epsilon)$-approximate Single-Source Shortest Path (SSSP) problem, we are given a graph $G=(V,E)$ with $n = |V|, m = |E|$, undergoing edge deletions, and a distinguished source $s \in V$, and we are asked to process…
Exact computation of shortest paths in weighted graphs has been traditionally studied in one of two settings. First, one can assume that the edge weights are real numbers and all the performed operations on reals (typically comparisons and…
Constant bit-size Transformers are known to be Turing complete, but existing constructions require $\Omega(s(n))$ chain-of-thought (CoT) steps per simulated Turing machine (TM) step, leading to impractical reasoning lengths. In this paper,…

In a hidden Markov model, the underlying Markov chain is usually hidden. Often, the maximum likelihood alignment (Viterbi alignment) is used as its estimate. Although having the biggest likelihood, the Viterbi alignment can behave very…
We present an algorithm that on input of an $n$-vertex $m$-edge weighted graph $G$ and a value $k$, produces an {\em incremental sparsifier} $\hat{G}$ with $n-1 + m/k$ edges, such that the condition number of $G$ with $\hat{G}$ is bounded…

In the decremental Single-Source Shortest Path problem (SSSP), we are given a weighted directed graph $G=(V,E,w)$ undergoing edge deletions and a source vertex $r \in V$; let $n = |V|, m = |E|$ and $W$ be the aspect ratio of the graph. The…
For vertices $u$ and $v$ of an $n$-vertex graph $G$, a $uv$-trail of $G$ is an induced $uv$-path of $G$ that is not a shortest $uv$-path of $G$. Berger, Seymour, and Spirkl [Discrete Mathematics 2021] gave the previously only known…
An algorithm on weighted graphs is called universally optimal if it is optimal for every input graph, in the worst case taken over all weight assignments. Informally, this means the algorithm is competitive even with algorithms that are…
