The Power of Two Matrices in Spectral Algorithms for Community Recovery

Spectral algorithms are some of the main tools in optimization and inference problems on graphs. Typically, the graph is encoded as a matrix and eigenvectors and eigenvalues of the matrix are then used to solve the given graph problem. Spectral algorithms ...

Differentially private multi-agent constraint optimization

Boi Faltings, Sujit Prakash Gujar, Aleksei Triastcyn, Sankarshan Damle

Distributed constraint optimization (DCOP) is a framework in which multiple agents with private constraints (or preferences) cooperate to achieve a common goal optimally. DCOPs are applicable in several multi-agent coordination/allocation problems, such as ...

Unambiguous DNFs and Alon-Saks-Seymour

Mika Tapani Göös, Siddhartha Jain

We exhibit an unambiguous k-DNF formula that requires CNF width (Omega) over tilde (k(2)), which is optimal up to logarithmic factors. As a consequence, we get a near-optimal solution to the Alon-Saks-Seymour problem in graph theory (posed in 1991), which ...

Differentially Private Multi-Agent Constraint Optimization

Boi Faltings, Sujit Prakash Gujar, Aleksei Triastcyn, Sankarshan Damle

Several optimization scenarios involve multiple agents that desire to protect the privacy of their preferences. There are distributed algorithms for constraint optimization that provide improved privacy protection through secure multiparty computation. How ...

From Boolean functions to quantum circuits: A scalable quantum compilation flow in C++

Giovanni De Micheli, Fereshte Mozafari Ghoraba, Heinz Riener, Giulia Meuli, Bruno Schmitt Antunes

We propose a flow for automated quantum compila- tion. Our flow takes a Boolean function implemented in Python as input and translates it into a format appropriate for reversible logic synthesis. We focus on two quantum compilation tasks: uniform state pre ...

Edge colorings of graphs without monochromatic stars

Abhishek Methuku

In this note, we improve on results of Hoppen, Kohayakawa and Lefmann about the maximum number of edge colorings without monochromatic copies of a star of a fixed size that a graph on n vertices may admit. Our results rely on an improved application of an ...

Distributed Coloring of Graphs with an Optimal Number of Colors

Etienne Michel François Bamas

This paper studies sufficient conditions to obtain efficient distributed algorithms coloring graphs optimally (i.e. with the minimum number of colors) in the LOCAL model of computation. Most of the work on distributed vertex coloring so far has focused on ...

Stability results for vertex Turatn problems in Kneser graphs

Abhishek Methuku

The vertex set of the Kneser graph K(n, k) is V = (([n])(k)) and two vertices are adjacent if the corresponding sets are disjoint. For any graph F, the largest size of a vertex set U subset of V such that K(n, k)[U] is F-free, was recently determined by Al ...

Tight Bounds for Online Edge Coloring

David Wajc

Vizing's celebrated theorem asserts that any graph of maximum degree Delta admits an edge coloring using at most Delta + 1 colors. In contrast, Bar-Noy, Motwani and Naor showed over a quarter century ago that the trivial greedy algorithm, which uses 2 Delt ...

Monochromatic cycle covers in random graphs

Dániel József Korándi

A classic result of Erdos, Gyarfas and Pyber states that for every coloring of the edges of K-n with r colors, there is a cover of its vertex set by at most f(r)=O(r2logr) vertex-disjoint monochromatic cycles. In particular, the minimum number of such cove ...
