We present a simple proof that the competitive ratio of any randomized online matching algorithm for the line is at least $\sqrt{\log_2(n\!+\!1)}/12$ for all $n=2^i\!-\!1: i\in\mathbb{N}$.
We consider the online minimum cost matching problem on the line, in which there are $n$ servers and, at each of $n$ time steps, a request arrives and must be irrevocably matched to a server that has not yet been matched to, with the goal…
We consider the edge-weighted online stochastic matching problem, in which an edge-weighted bipartite graph G=(I\cup J, E) with offline vertices J and online vertex types I is given. The online vertices have types sampled from I with…
In the weighted bipartite matching problem, the goal is to find a maximum-weight matching in a bipartite graph with nonnegative edge weights. We consider its online version where the first vertex set is known beforehand, but vertices of the…
Motivated by demand-responsive parking pricing systems, we consider posted-price algorithms for the online metric matching problem. We give an $O(\log n)$-competitive posted-price randomized algorithm in the case that the metric space is a…
An online truthful budgeted matching problem is considered for a bipartite graph, where the right vertices are available ahead of time, and individual left vertices arrive sequentially. On arrival of a left vertex, its edge utilities (or…
We consider the problem of online Min-cost Perfect Matching with Delays (MPMD) introduced by Emek et al. (STOC 2016). In this problem, an even number of requests appear in a metric space at different times and the goal of an online…
In the matroid buyback problem, an algorithm observes a sequence of bids and must decide whether to accept each bid at the moment it arrives, subject to a matroid constraint on the set of accepted bids. Decisions to reject bids are…
The $b$-matching problem is an allocation problem where the vertices on the left-hand side of a bipartite graph, referred to as servers, may be matched multiple times. In the setting with stochastic rewards, an assignment between an…
We study the online unweighted bipartite matching problem in the random arrival order model, with $n$ offline and $n$ online vertices, in the learning-augmented setting: The algorithm is provided with untrusted predictions of the types…
We contribute the first randomized algorithm that is an integration of arbitrarily many deterministic algorithms for the fully online multiprocessor scheduling with testing problem. When there are two machines, we show that with two…
We study the classic online bipartite matching problem with a twist: offline vertices, called resources, are $\textit{reusable}$. In particular, when a resource is matched to an online vertex it is unavailable for a deterministic time…
Online Bipartite Matching with random user arrival is a fundamental problem in the online advertisement ecosystem. Over the last 30 years, many algorithms and impossibility results have been developed for this problem. In particular, the…
Online bipartite matching is a classical problem in online algorithms and we know that both the deterministic fractional and randomized integral online matchings achieve the same competitive ratio of $1-\frac{1}{e}$. In this work, we study…
The problem of online matching with stochastic rewards is a generalization of the online bipartite matching problem where each edge has a probability of success. When a match is made it succeeds with the probability of the corresponding…
In the online hypergraph matching problem, hyperedges of size $k$ over a common ground set arrive online in adversarial order. The goal is to obtain a maximum matching (disjoint set of hyperedges). A na\"ive greedy algorithm for this…
In the Min-cost Perfect Matching with Delays (MPMD) problem, 2 m requests arrive over time at points of a metric space. An online algorithm has to connect these requests in pairs, but a decision to match may be postponed till a more…
We study the relationship between the competitive ratio and the tail distribution of randomized online minimization problems. To this end, we define a broad class of online problems that includes some of the well-studied problems like…
In this paper, we study two variants of the online metric matching problem. The first problem is the online metric matching problem where all the servers are placed at one of two positions in the metric space. We show that a simple greedy…
Two related online problems: knapsack and truthful bipartite matching are considered. For these two problems, the common theme is how to `match' an arriving left vertex in an online fashion with any of the available right vertices, if at…
