The Kautz digraphs $K(d,\ell)$ are a well-known family of dense digraphs, widely studied as a good model for interconnection networks. Closely related to these, the cyclic Kautz digraphs $CK(d,\ell)$ were recently introduced by B\"ohmov\'a,…

We consider the problem of finding a minimum cut of a weighted graph presented as a single-pass stream. While graph sparsification in streams has been intensively studied, the specific application of finding minimum cuts in streams is less…

We consider the problem of preprocessing two strings $S$ and $T$, of lengths $m$ and $n$, respectively, in order to be able to efficiently answer the following queries: Given positions $i,j$ in $S$ and positions $a,b$ in $T$, return the…

We investigate the $k$-cycle shuffle on repeated cards, namely on a deck consisting of $l$ identical copies of each of $m$ card types, with total size $n=ml$. We establish asymptotic results for the total variation mixing of this shuffle,…

The set disjointness problem is one of the most fundamental and well-studied problems in communication complexity. In this problem Alice and Bob hold sets $S, T \subseteq [n]$, respectively, and the goal is to decide if $S \cap T =…

The edit distance (a.k.a. the Levenshtein distance) between two strings is defined as the minimum number of insertions, deletions or substitutions of symbols needed to transform one string into another. The problem of computing the edit…

Cardinality sketches are compact data structures that efficiently estimate the number of distinct elements across multiple queries while minimizing storage, communication, and computational costs. However, recent research has shown that…

This study aims to publish a novel similarity metric to increase the speed of comparison operations. Also the new metric is suitable for distance-based operations among strings. Most of the simple calculation methods, such as string length…

We study the problem of compressing a weighted graph $G$ on $n$ vertices, building a "sketch" $H$ of $G$, so that given any vector $x \in \mathbb{R}^n$, the value $x^T L_G x$ can be approximated up to a multiplicative $1+\epsilon$ factor…

In this paper, we propose {\it \underline{R}ecursive} {\it \underline{I}mportance} {\it \underline{S}ketching} algorithm for {\it \underline{R}ank} constrained least squares {\it \underline{O}ptimization} (RISRO). The key step of RISRO is…

Recently, many studies have been devoted to finding diverse solutions in classical combinatorial problems, such as Vertex Cover (Baste et al., IJCAI'20), Matching (Fomin et al., ISAAC'20) and Spanning Tree (Hanaka et al., AAAI'21). We…

The sequence reconstruction problem asks for the recovery of a sequence from multiple noisy copies, where each copy may contain up to $r$ errors. In the case of permutations on \(n\) letters under the Hamming metric, this problem is closely…

Construction of error-correcting codes achieving a designated minimum distance parameter is a central problem in coding theory. In this work, we study a very simple construction of binary linear codes that correct a given number of errors…

The minimum-cost $k$-edge-connected spanning subgraph ($k$-ECSS) problem is a generalization and strengthening of the well-studied minimum-cost spanning tree (MST) problem. While the round complexity of distributedly computing the latter…

In the \emph{$k$-Diameter-Optimally Augmenting Tree Problem} we are given a tree $T$ of $n$ vertices as input. The tree is embedded in an unknown \emph{metric} space and we have unlimited access to an oracle that, given two distinct…

We present a refined analysis of the classic Count-Sketch streaming heavy hitters algorithm [CCF02]. Count-Sketch uses O(k log n) linear measurements of a vector x in R^n to give an estimate x' of x. The standard analysis shows that this…

Motivated by an application from geodesy, we introduce a novel clustering problem which is a $k$-center (or k-diameter) problem with a side constraint. For the side constraint, we are given an undirected connectivity graph $G$ on the input…

The Erd\H{o}s distance problem concerns the least number of distinct distances that can be determined by $N$ points in the plane. The integer lattice with $N$ points is known as \textit{near-optimal}, as it spans $\Theta(N/\sqrt{\log(N)})$…

Sketching techniques have become popular for scaling up machine learning algorithms by reducing the sample size or dimensionality of massive data sets, while still maintaining the statistical power of big data. In this paper, we study…

Count-sketch is a popular matrix sketching algorithm that can produce a sketch of an input data matrix X in O(nnz(X))time where nnz(X) denotes the number of non-zero entries in X. The sketched matrix will be much smaller than X while…
