For any given metric space, obtaining an offline optimal solution to the classical $k$-server problem can be reduced to solving a minimum-cost partial bipartite matching between two point sets $A$ and $B$ within that metric space. For…
We study the on-line minimum weighted bipartite matching problem in arbitrary metric spaces. Here, $n$ not necessary disjoint points of a metric space $M$ are given, and are to be matched on-line with $n$ points of $M$ revealed one by one.…
In the online metric matching problem, $n$ servers and $n$ requests lie in a metric space. Servers are available upfront, and requests arrive sequentially. An arriving request must be matched immediately and irrevocably to an available…
In this paper, we explicitly study the online vertex cover problem, which is a natural generalization of the well-studied ski-rental problem. In the online vertex cover problem, we are required to maintain a monotone vertex cover in a graph…
We present an algorithm for maintaining maximal matching in a graph under addition and deletion of edges. Our data structure is randomized that takes O(log n) expected amortized time for each edge update where n is the number of vertices in…
Sampling without replacement is a natural online rounding strategy for converting fractional bipartite matching into an integral one. In Online Bipartite Matching, we can use the Balance algorithm to fractionally match each online vertex,…
We study a weighted online bipartite matching problem: $G(V_1, V_2, E)$ is a weighted bipartite graph where $V_1$ is known beforehand and the vertices of $V_2$ arrive online. The goal is to match vertices of $V_2$ as they arrive to vertices…
We study the online bipartite matching problem, introduced by Karp, Vazirani and Vazirani [1990]. For bipartite graphs with matchings of size $n$, it is known that the Ranking randomized algorithm matches at least $(1 - \frac{1}{e})n$ edges…
The shortest augmenting path technique is one of the fundamental ideas used in maximum matching and maximum flow algorithms. Since being introduced by Edmonds and Karp in 1972, it has been widely applied in many different settings.…
The dynamic set cover problem has been subject to growing research attention in recent years. In this problem, we are given as input a dynamic universe of at most $n$ elements and a fixed collection of $m$ sets, where each element appears…
Online bipartite matching is a fundamental problem in online algorithms. The goal is to match two sets of vertices to maximize the sum of the edge weights, where for one set of vertices, each vertex and its corresponding edge weights appear…
Online bipartite matching and its variants are among the most fundamental problems in the online algorithms literature. Karp, Vazirani, and Vazirani (STOC 1990) introduced an elegant algorithm for the unweighted problem that achieves an…
We study the greedy-based online algorithm for edge-weighted matching with (one-sided) vertex arrivals in bipartite graphs, and edge arrivals in general graphs. This algorithm was first studied more than a decade ago by Korula and P\'al for…
In this paper we consider the well-studied problem of finding a perfect matching in a d-regular bipartite graph on 2n nodes with m=nd edges. The best-known algorithm for general bipartite graphs (due to Hopcroft and Karp) takes time…
We consider the unweighted bipartite maximum matching problem in the one-pass turnstile streaming model where the input stream consists of edge insertions and deletions. In the insertion-only model, a one-pass $2$-approximation streaming…
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 study the average performance of online greedy matching algorithms on $G(n,n,p)$, the random bipartite graph with $n$ vertices on each side and edges occurring independently with probability $p=p(n)$. In the online model, vertices on one…
The performance of many large-scale and data-intensive distributed systems critically depends on the capacity of the interconnecting network. This paper is motivated by the vision of self-adjusting infrastructures whose resources can be…
The online bisection problem requires maintaining a dynamic partition of $n$ nodes into two equal-sized clusters. Requests arrive sequentially as node pairs. If the nodes lie in different clusters, the algorithm pays unit cost. After each…
Bipartite matching markets pair agents on one side of a market with agents, items, or contracts on the opposing side. Prior work addresses online bipartite matching markets, where agents arrive over time and are dynamically matched to a…
