Tree rotations (left and right) are basic local deformations allowing to transform between two unlabeled binary trees of the same size. Hence, there is a natural problem of practically finding such transformation path with low number of…
We introduce Tokenization with Split Trees (ToaST), a subword tokenization method that directly optimizes compression under a new recursive inference procedure. ToaST greedily splits each pretoken into a full binary tree using precomputed…
In this paper, we give approximation algorithms for the \textsc{Minimum Dominating Set (MDS)} problem on \emph{string} graphs and its subclasses. A \emph{path} is a simple curve made up of alternating horizontal and vertical line segments.…
Variety of machine learning problems can be formulated as an optimization task for some (surrogate) loss function. Calculation of loss function can be viewed in terms of stochastic computation graphs (SCG). We use this formalism to analyze…
A new model for domination reconfiguration is introduced which combines the properties of the preexisting token addition/removal (TAR) and token sliding (TS) models. The vertices of the TARS-graph correspond to the dominating sets of $G$,…
Embeddings of graphs into distributions of trees that preserve distances in expectation are a cornerstone of many optimization algorithms. Unfortunately, online or dynamic algorithms which use these embeddings seem inherently randomized and…
In the Token Sliding problem we are given a graph $G$ and two independent sets $I_s$ and $I_t$ in $G$ of size $k \geq 1$. The goal is to decide whether there exists a sequence $\langle I_1, I_2, \ldots, I_\ell \rangle$ of independent sets…
One of the key problems in tensor network based quantum circuit simulation is the construction of a contraction tree which minimizes the cost of the simulation, where the cost can be expressed in the number of operations as a proxy for the…
Given a rooted tree and a ranking of its leaves, what is the minimum number of inversions of the leaves that can be attained by ordering the tree? This variation of the problem of counting inversions in arrays originated in mathematical…
Reductions---rules that reduce input size while maintaining the ability to compute an optimal solution---are critical for developing efficient maximum independent set algorithms in both theory and practice. While several simple reductions…
The element distinctness problem takes as input a list $I$ of $n$ values from a totally ordered universe and the goal is to decide whether $I$ contains any duplicates. It is a well-studied problem with a classical worst-case $\Omega(n \log…
The minimum status of a graph is the minimum of statuses of all vertices of this graph. We give a sharp upper bound for the minimum status of a connected graph with fixed order and matching number (domination number, respectively), and…
Monadic second order logic can be used to express many classical notions of sets of vertices of a graph as for instance: dominating sets, induced matchings, perfect codes, independent sets or irredundant sets. Bounds on the number of sets…
We explore a generalization of set reconciliation, where the goal is to reconcile sets of sets. Alice and Bob each have a parent set consisting of $s$ child sets, each containing at most $h$ elements from a universe of size $u$. They want…
A contraction sequence of a graph consists of iteratively merging two of its vertices until only one vertex remains. The recently introduced twin-width graph invariant is based on contraction sequences. More precisely, if one puts red edges…
A rerouting sequence is a sequence of shortest st-paths such that consecutive paths differ in one vertex. We study the the Shortest Path Rerouting Problem, which asks, given two shortest st-paths P and Q in a graph G, whether a rerouting…
In this paper, we present a fully-dynamic distributed algorithm for maintaining a minimum spanning tree on general graphs with positive real edge weights. The goal of a dynamic MST algorithm is to update efficiently the minimum spanning…
We consider the Steiner tree problem on graphs where we are given a set of nodes and the goal is to find a tree sub-graph of minimum weight that contains all nodes in the given set, potentially including additional nodes. This is a…
We study the problem of set discovery where given a few example tuples of a desired set, we want to find the set in a collection of sets. A challenge is that the example tuples may not uniquely identify a set, and a large number of…
With applications in distribution systems and communication networks, the minimum stretch spanning tree problem is to find a spanning tree T of a graph G such that the maximum distance in T between two adjacent vertices is minimized. The…
