In the Minimum Bisection problem, input is a graph $G$ and the goal is to partition the vertex set into two parts $A$ and $B$, such that $||A|-|B|| \le 1$ and the number $k$ of edges between $A$ and $B$ is minimized. This problem can be…

A balanced partition is a clustering of a graph into a given number of equal-sized parts. For instance, the Bisection problem asks to remove at most k edges in order to partition the vertices into two equal-sized parts. We prove that…

In certain finite posets, the expected down-degree of their elements is the same whether computed with respect to either the uniform distribution or the distribution weighting an element by the number of maximal chains passing through it.…

The paper studies empirically the time-space trade-off between sampling and inference in a sl cutset sampling algorithm. The algorithm samples over a subset of nodes in a Bayesian network and applies exact inference over the rest.…

Subset selection for the rank $k$ approximation of an $n\times d$ matrix $A$ offers improvements in the interpretability of matrices, as well as a variety of computational savings. This problem is well-understood when the error measure is…

In the online sorting problem, we have an array $A$ of $n$ cells, and receive a stream of $n$ items $x_1,\dots,x_n\in [0,1]$. When an item arrives, we need to immediately and irrevocably place it into an empty cell. The goal is to minimize…

Let $(\mathcal{P},\leqslant)$ be a finite poset. Define the numbers $a_1,a_2,\ldots$ (respectively, $c_1,c_2,\ldots$) so that $a_1+\ldots+a_k$ (respectively, $c_1+\ldots+c_k$) is the maximal number of elements of $\mathcal{P}$ which may be…

The queue number of a poset is the queue number of its cover graph when the vertex order is a linear extension of the poset. Heath and Pemmaraju conjectured that every poset of width $w$ has queue number at most $w$. The conjecture has been…

The online unit clustering problem was proposed by Chan and Zarrabi-Zadeh (WAOA2007 and Theory of Computing Systems 45(3), 2009), which is defined as follows: "Points" are given online in the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space one by one. An…

We study \emph{parallel} online algorithms: For some fixed integer $k$, a collective of $k$ parallel processes that perform online decisions on the same sequence of events forms a $k$-\emph{copy algorithm}. For any given time and input…

We resolve a number of long-standing open problems in online graph coloring. More specifically, we develop tight lower bounds on the performance of online algorithms for fundamental graph classes. An important contribution is that our…

We consider the following online optimization problem. We are given a graph $G$ and each vertex of the graph is assigned to one of $\ell$ servers, where servers have capacity $k$ and we assume that the graph has $\ell \cdot k$ vertices.…

We introduce an extension of the partitioned local depth (PaLD) algorithm that is adapted to online applications such as semi-supervised prediction. PaLD is best known for unsupervised, parameter-free clustering, but its robustness is based…

In this paper, we show a connection between a certain online low-congestion routing problem and an online prediction of graph labeling. More specifically, we prove that if there exists a routing scheme that guarantees a congestion of…

Recently, Bojikian and Kratsch [2023] have presented a novel approach to tackle connectivity problems parameterized by clique-width ($\operatorname{cw}$), based on counting small representations of partial solutions (modulo two). Using this…

For a given finite poset $P$, $La(n,P)$ denotes the largest size of a family $\mathcal{F}$ of subsets of $[n]$ not containing $P$ as a weak subposet. We exactly determine $La(n,P)$ for infinitely many $P$ posets. These posets are built from…

We consider the approximate pattern matching problem under edit distance. In this problem we are given a pattern $P$ of length $w$ and a text $T$ of length $n$ over some alphabet $\Sigma$, and a positive integer $k$. The goal is to find all…

The partition problem is a well-known basic NP-complete problem. We mainly consider the optimization version of it in this paper. The problem has been investigated from various perspectives for a long time and can be solved efficiently in…

A classic result of Williamson, Goemans, Mihail, and Vazirani [STOC 1993: 708-717] states that the problem of covering an uncrossable set family by a min-cost edge set admits approximation ratio $2$, by a primal-dual algorithm with a…

We study online matching in the Euclidean $2$-dimesional plane with non-crossing constraint. The offline version was introduced by Atallah in 1985 and the online version was introduced and studied more recently by Bose et al. The input to…
