Given $n$ elements, an integer $k$ and a parameter $\varepsilon$, we study to select an element with rank in $(k-n\varepsilon,k+n\varepsilon]$ using unreliable comparisons where the outcome of each comparison is incorrect independently with…

Clustering is a technique for the analysis of datasets obtained by empirical studies in several disciplines with a major application for biomedical research. Essentially, clustering algorithms are executed by machines aiming at finding…

The minimum cut problem for an undirected edge-weighted graph asks us to divide its set of nodes into two blocks while minimizing the weight sum of the cut edges. Here, we introduce a linear-time algorithm to compute near-minimum cuts. Our…

In the $k$-Cut problem, we are given an edge-weighted graph $G$ and an integer $k$, and have to remove a set of edges with minimum total weight so that $G$ has at least $k$ connected components. Prior work on this problem gives, for all $h…

In quantum computation we are given a finite set of gates and we have to perform a desired operation as a product of them. The corresponding computational problem is approximating an arbitrary unitary as a product in a topological…

We present an algorithm for computing depth-optimal decompositions of logical operations, leveraging a meet-in-the-middle technique to provide a significant speed-up over simple brute force algorithms. As an illustration of our method we…

Hamiltonian simulation represents an important module in a large class of quantum algorithms and simulations such as quantum machine learning, quantum linear algebra methods, and modeling for physics, material science and chemistry. One of…

A stochastic algorithm is proposed, finding the set of generalized means associated to a probability measure on a compact Riemannian manifold M and a continuous cost function on the product of M by itself. Generalized means include p-means…

Let G be a directed graph with n vertices and non-negative weights in its directed edges, embedded on a surface of genus g, and let f be an arbitrary face of G. We describe a randomized algorithm to preprocess the graph in O(gn log n) time…

We propose a novel factorization of a non-singular matrix $P$, viewed as a $2\times 2$-blocked matrix. The factorization decomposes $P$ into a product of three matrices that are lower block-unitriangular, upper block-triangular, and lower…

We study correlation bounds and pseudorandom generators for depth-two circuits that consist of a $\mathsf{SYM}$-gate (computing an arbitrary symmetric function) or $\mathsf{THR}$-gate (computing an arbitrary linear threshold function) that…

We present a new pipelined approach to compute all pairs shortest paths (APSP) in a directed graph with nonnegative integer edge weights (including zero weights) in the CONGEST model in the distributed setting. Our deterministic distributed…

We give a general framework for approximations to combinatorial assemblies, especially suitable to the situation where the number $k$ of components is specified, in addition to the overall size $n$. This involves a Poisson process, which,…

We give a new $(1+\epsilon)$-approximation for sparsest cut problem on graphs where small sets expand significantly more than the sparsest cut (sets of size $n/r$ expand by a factor $\sqrt{\log n\log r}$ bigger, for some small $r$; this…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be a polygonal domain of $h$ holes and $n$ vertices. We study the problem of constructing a data structure that can compute a shortest path between $s$ and $t$ in $\mathcal{P}$ under the $L_1$ metric for any two query…

We consider variants of the classic Multiway Cut problem. Multiway Cut asks to partition a graph $G$ into $k$ parts so as to separate $k$ given terminals. Recently, Chandrasekaran and Wang (ESA 2021) introduced $\ell_p$-norm Multiway, a…

We present a lattice algorithm specifically designed for some classical applications of lattice reduction. The applications are for lattice bases with a generalized knapsack-type structure, where the target vectors are boundably short. For…

Given a point $s$ and a set of $h$ pairwise disjoint polygonal obstacles of totally $n$ vertices in the plane, we present a new algorithm for building an $L_1$ shortest path map of size O(n) in $O(T)$ time and O(n) space such that for any…

We provide a deterministic algorithm that finds, in $\epsilon^{-O(1)} n^2$ time, an $\epsilon$-regular Frieze-Kannan partition of a graph on $n$ vertices. The algorithm outputs an approximation of a given graph as a weighted sum of…

We generalize the feasible interpolation theorem for semantic derivations from K.(1997) by allowing randomized protocols (protocols in the sense of K.(1997). We also introduce an extension of the monotone circuit model, monotone circuits…
