We present a new GCD algorithm of two integers or polynomials. The algorithm is iterative and its time complexity is still $O(n \\log^2 n ~ log \\log n)$ for $n$-bit inputs.
We present a simple algorithm which maintains the topological order of a directed acyclic graph with n nodes under an online edge insertion sequence in O(n^{2.75}) time, independent of the number of edges m inserted. For dense DAGs, this is…
An archetypal problem discussed in computer science is the problem of searching for a given number in a given set of numbers. Other than sequential search, the classic solution is to sort the list of numbers and then apply binary search.…
We present the first explicit comparison-based algorithm that sorts the sumset $X + Y = \{x_i + y_j,\ \forall 0 \le i, j < n\}$, where $X$ and $Y$ are sorted arrays of real numbers, in optimal $O(n^2)$ time and comparisons. While Fredman…
We show, for the input vectors $(a_0, a_1, ..., a_{n-1})$ and $(b_0, b_1, ..., b_{n-1})$, where $a_i$'s and $b_j$'s are real numbers, after $O(n\log^4 n)$ time preprocessing for each of them, the vector multiplication $(a_0, a_1, ...,…
Classical problems of sorting and searching assume an underlying linear ordering of the objects being compared. In this paper, we study a more general setting, in which some pairs of objects are incomparable. This generalization is relevant…
We introduce a new family of priority-queue data structures: partition-based simple heaps. The structures consist of $O(\log n)$ doubly-linked lists; order is enforced among data in different lists, but the individual lists are unordered.…
Partially ordered models of time occur naturally in applications where agents or processes cannot perfectly communicate with each other, and can be traced back to the seminal work of Lamport. In this paper we consider the problem of…
Sorting has a natural generalization where the input consists of: (1) a ground set $X$ of size $n$, (2) a partial oracle $O_P$ specifying some fixed partial order $P$ on $X$ and (3) a linear oracle $O_L$ specifying a linear order $L$ that…
In the online sorting problem, a sequence of $n$ numbers in $[0, 1]$ (including $\{0,1\}$) have to be inserted in an array of size $m \ge n$ so as to minimize the sum of absolute differences between pairs of numbers occupying consecutive…
We prove that \Omega(n log(n)) comparisons are necessary for any quantum algorithm that sorts n numbers with high success probability and uses only comparisons. If no error is allowed, at least 0.110nlog_2(n) - 0.067n + O(1) comparisons…
In this paper, we introduce and prove QR Sort, a novel non-comparative integer sorting algorithm. This algorithm uses principles derived from the Quotient-Remainder Theorem and Counting Sort subroutines to sort input sequences stably. QR…
Motivated by the development of computer theory, the sorting algorithm is emerging in an endless stream. Inspired by decrease and conquer method, we propose a brand new sorting algorithmUltimately Heapsort. The algorithm consists of two…
A sorted set (or map) is one of the most used data types in computer science. In addition to standard set operations, like Insert, Remove, and Contains, it can provide set-set operations such as Union,Intersection, and Difference. Each of…
We investigate the complexity of sorting in the model of sequential quantum circuits. While it is known that in general a quantum algorithm based on comparisons alone cannot outperform classical sorting algorithms by more than a constant…
A New Number Theoretic Transform(NTT), which is a form of FFT, is introduced, that is faster than FFTs. Also, a multiplication algorithm is introduced that uses this to perform integer multiplication faster than O(n log n). It uses…
QuickXsort is a highly efficient in-place sequential sorting scheme that mixes Hoare's Quicksort algorithm with X, where X can be chosen from a wider range of other known sorting algorithms, like Heapsort, Insertionsort and Mergesort. Its…
Learned indexes leverage machine learning models to accelerate query answering in databases, showing impressive practical performance. However, theoretical understanding of these methods remains incomplete. Existing research suggests that…
Sorting is a common and ubiquitous activity for computers. It is not surprising that there exist a plethora of sorting algorithms. For all the sorting algorithms, it is an accepted performance limit that sorting algorithms are linearithmic…
We consider the problem of inserting one item into a list of N-1 ordered items. We previously showed that no quantum algorithm could solve this problem in fewer than log N/(2 log log N) queries, for N large. We transform the problem into a…
