This paper studies the classic problem of finding heavy hitters in the turnstile streaming model. We give the first deterministic linear sketch that has $O(\epsilon^{-2} \log n \cdot \log^*(\epsilon^{-1}))$ rows and answers queries in…

The discrete logarithm problem in a finite group is the basis for many protocols in cryptography. The best general algorithms which solve this problem have time complexity of $\mathcal{O}(\sqrt{N}\log N)$, and a space complexity of…

Fast distributed algorithms that output a feasible solution for constraint satisfaction problems, such as maximal independent sets, have been heavily studied. There has been much less research on distributed sampling problems, where one…

We investigate distributed memory parallel sorting algorithms that scale to the largest available machines and are robust with respect to input size and distribution of the input elements. The main outcome is that four sorting algorithms…

In this paper, we present novel randomized algorithms for solving saddle point problems whose dual feasible region is given by the direct product of many convex sets. Our algorithms can achieve an ${\cal O}(1/N)$ and ${\cal O}(1/N^2)$ rate…

We present a simple distributed $\Delta$-approximation algorithm for maximum weight independent set (MaxIS) in the $\mathsf{CONGEST}$ model which completes in $O(\texttt{MIS}(G)\cdot \log W)$ rounds, where $\Delta$ is the maximum degree,…

We investigate dynamic algorithms for the interval scheduling problem. Our algorithm runs in amortised time $O(\log n)$ for query operation and $O(d\log^2 n)$ for insertion and removal operations, where $n$ and $d$ are the maximal numbers…

This paper studies the online scheduling problem of minimizing total flow time for $n$ jobs on $m$ identical machines. A classical $\Omega(n)$ lower bound shows that no deterministic single-machine algorithm can beat the trivial greedy,…

We study the Weighted Min Cut problem in the Adaptive Massively Parallel Computation (AMPC) model. In 2019, Behnezhad et al. [3] introduced the AMPC model as an extension of the Massively Parallel Computation (MPC) model. In the past…

We show that many classical optimization problems --- such as $(1\pm\epsilon)$-approximate maximum flow, shortest path, and transshipment --- can be computed in $\newcommand{\tmix}{{\tau_{\text{mix}}}}\tmix(G)\cdot n^{o(1)}$ rounds of…

Determining the degree of inherent parallelism in classical sequential algorithms and leveraging it for fast parallel execution is a key topic in parallel computing, and detailed analyses are known for a wide range of classical algorithms.…

Dynamic programming is a powerful technique that is, unfortunately, often inherently sequential. That is, there exists no unified method to parallelize algorithms that use dynamic programming. In this paper, we attempt to address this issue…

When facing a very large stream of data, it is often desirable to extract most important statistics online in a short time and using small memory. For example, one may want to quickly find the most influential users generating posts online…

We study the minmax optimization problem introduced in [22] for computing policies for batch mode reinforcement learning in a deterministic setting. First, we show that this problem is NP-hard. In the two-stage case, we provide two…

This paper gives simple distributed algorithms for the fundamental problem of computing graph distances in the Congested Clique model. One of the main components of our algorithms is fast matrix multiplication, for which we show an…

In the multiple-selection problem one is given an unsorted array $S$ of $N$ elements and an array of $q$ query ranks $r_1<\cdots<r_q$, and the task is to return, in sorted order, the $q$ elements in $S$ of rank $r_1, \ldots, r_q$,…

This paper presents a distributed O(1)-approximation algorithm, with expected-$O(\log \log n)$ running time, in the $\mathcal{CONGEST}$ model for the metric facility location problem on a size-$n$ clique network. Though metric facility…

We present and analyze a wait-free deterministic algorithm for solving the at-most-once problem: how m shared-memory fail-prone processes perform asynchronously n jobs at most once. Our algorithmic strategy provides for the first time…

This paper presents significantly improved deterministic algorithms for some of the key problems in the area of distributed graph algorithms, including network decomposition, hitting sets, and spanners. As the main ingredient in these…

Interior point algorithms for solving linear programs have been studied extensively for a long time [e.g. Karmarkar 1984; Lee, Sidford FOCS'14; Cohen, Lee, Song STOC'19]. For linear programs of the form $\min_{Ax=b, x \ge 0} c^\top x$ with…
