This paper studies spectral approximation for a positive semidefinite matrix in the online setting. It is known in [Cohen et al. APPROX 2016] that we can construct a spectral approximation of a given $n \times d$ matrix in the online…
We introduce the batched set cover problem, which is a generalization of the online set cover problem. In this problem, the elements of the ground set that need to be covered arrive in batches. Our main technical contribution is a tight…
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…
We provide approximation algorithms for two problems, known as NECKLACE SPLITTING and $\epsilon$-CONSENSUS SPLITTING. In the problem $\epsilon$-CONSENSUS SPLITTING, there are $n$ non-atomic probability measures on the interval $[0, 1]$ and…
A famous theorem of Dilworth asserts that any finite poset of width $k$ can be decomposed into $k$ chains. We study the following problem: given a Borel poset $P$ of finite width $k$, is it true that it can be decomposed into $k$ Borel…
Online bin stretching is an online packing problem where some of the best known lower and upper bounds were found through computational searches. The limiting factor in obtaining better bounds with such methods is the computational time…
We consider the problem of online linear regression on arbitrary deterministic sequences when the ambient dimension d can be much larger than the number of time rounds T. We introduce the notion of sparsity regret bound, which is a…
We propose a new exact method for shortest-path distance queries on large-scale networks. Our method precomputes distance labels for vertices by performing a breadth-first search from every vertex. Seemingly too obvious and too inefficient…
We consider the problem of self-healing in peer-to-peer networks that are under repeated attack by an omniscient adversary. We assume that, over a sequence of rounds, an adversary either inserts a node with arbitrary connections or deletes…
Network embedding has been intensively studied in the literature and widely used in various applications, such as link prediction and node classification. While previous work focus on the design of new algorithms or are tailored for various…
Online matching and its variants are some of the most fundamental problems in the online algorithms literature. In this paper, we study the online weighted bipartite matching problem. Karp et al. (STOC 1990) gave an elegant algorithm in the…
This paper proves strong lower bounds for distributed computing in the CONGEST model, by presenting the bit-gadget: a new technique for constructing graphs with small cuts. The contribution of bit-gadgets is twofold. First, developing…
In the Cover Small Cuts problem, we are given a capacitated (undirected) graph $G=(V,E,u)$ and a threshold value $\lambda$, as well as a set of links $L$ with end-nodes in $V$ and a non-negative cost for each link $\ell\in L$; the goal is…
Consider a storage area where arriving items are stored temporarily in bounded capacity stacks until their departure. We look into the problem of deciding where to put an arriving item with the objective of minimizing the maximum number of…
We investigate online algorithms for maximum (weight) independent set on graph classes with bounded inductive independence number like, e.g., interval and disk graphs with applications to, e.g., task scheduling and spectrum allocation. In…
We present a new fast online clustering algorithm that reliably recovers arbitrary-shaped data clusters in high throughout data streams. Unlike the existing state-of-the-art online clustering methods based on k-means or k-medoid, it does…
This paper presents a distributed algorithm for finding near optimal dominating sets on grids. The basis for this algorithm is an existing centralized algorithm that constructs dominating sets on grids. The size of the dominating set…
There has been a recent explosion in the size of stored data, partially due to advances in storage technology, and partially due to the growing popularity of cloud-computing and the vast quantities of data generated. This motivates the need…
This paper focuses on the online gradient and proximal-gradient methods with stochastic gradient errors. In particular, we examine the performance of the online gradient descent method when the cost satisfies the Polyak-\L ojasiewicz (PL)…
We study fair clustering problems as proposed by Chierichetti et al. (NIPS 2017). Here, points have a sensitive attribute and all clusters in the solution are required to be balanced with respect to it (to counteract any form of…
