We consider the problem of computing a grevlex Gr\"obner basis for the set $F_r(M)$ of minors of size $r$ of an $n\times n$ matrix $M$ of generic linear forms over a field of characteristic zero or large enough. Such sets are not regular sequences; in fact, the ideal $\langle F_r(M) \rangle$ cannot be generated by a regular sequence. As such, when using the general-purpose algorithm $F_5$ to find the sought Gr\"obner basis, some computing time is wasted on reductions to zero. We use known results about the first syzygy module of $F_r(M)$ to refine the $F_5$ algorithm in order to detect more reductions to zero. In practice, our approach avoids a significant number of reductions to zero. In particular, in the case $r=n-2$, we prove that our new algorithm avoids all reductions to zero, and we provide a corresponding complexity analysis which improves upon the previously known estimates.

The Cover Suffix Tree (CST) of a string $T$ is the suffix tree of $T$ with additional explicit nodes corresponding to halves of square substrings of $T$. In the CST an explicit node corresponding to a substring $C$ of $T$ is annotated with two numbers: the number of non-overlapping consecutive occurrences of $C$ and the total number of positions in $T$ that are covered by occurrences of $C$ in $T$. Kociumaka et al. (Algorithmica, 2015) have shown how to compute the CST of a length-$n$ string in $O(n \log n)$ time. We show how to compute the CST in $O(n)$ time assuming that $T$ is over an integer alphabet. Kociumaka et al. (Algorithmica, 2015; Theor. Comput. Sci., 2018) have shown that knowing the CST of a length-$n$ string $T$, one can compute a linear-sized representation of all seeds of $T$ as well as all shortest $\alpha$-partial covers and seeds in $T$ for a given $\alpha$ in $O(n)$ time. Thus our result implies linear-time algorithms computing these notions of quasiperiodicity. The resulting algorithm computing seeds is substantially different from the previous one (Kociumaka et al., SODA 2012, ACM Trans. Algorithms, 2020). Kociumaka et al. (Algorithmica, 2015) proposed an $O(n \log n)$-time algorithm for computing a shortest $\alpha$-partial cover for each $\alpha=1,\ldots,n$; we improve this complexity to $O(n)$. Our results are based on a new characterization of consecutive overlapping occurrences of a substring $S$ of $T$ in terms of the set of runs (see Kolpakov and Kucherov, FOCS 1999) in $T$. This new insight also leads to an $O(n)$-sized index for reporting overlapping consecutive occurrences of a given pattern $P$ of length $m$ in $O(m+output)$ time, where $output$ is the number of occurrences reported. In comparison, a general index for reporting bounded-gap consecutive occurrences of Navarro and Thankachan (Theor. Comput. Sci., 2016) uses $O(n \log n)$ space.
We study the tolerant testing problem for high-dimensional samplers. Given as input two samplers $\mathcal{P}$ and $\mathcal{Q}$ over the $n$-dimensional space $\{0,1\}^n$, and two parameters $\varepsilon_2 > \varepsilon_1$, the goal of tolerant testing is to test whether the distributions generated by $\mathcal{P}$ and $\mathcal{Q}$ are $\varepsilon_1$-close or $\varepsilon_2$-far. Since exponential lower bounds (in $n$) are known for the problem in the standard sampling model, research has focused on models where one can draw \textit{conditional} samples. Among these models, \textit{subcube conditioning} ($\mathsf{SUBCOND}$), which allows conditioning on arbitrary subcubes of the domain, holds the promise of widespread adoption in practice owing to its ability to capture the natural behavior of samplers in constrained domains. To translate the promise into practice, we need to overcome two crucial roadblocks for tests based on $\mathsf{SUBCOND}$: the prohibitively large number of queries ($\tilde{\mathcal{O}}(n^5/\varepsilon_2^5)$) and limitation to non-tolerant testing (i.e., $\varepsilon_1 = 0$). The primary contribution of this work is to overcome the above challenges: we design a new tolerant testing methodology (i.e., $\varepsilon_1 \geq 0$) that allows us to significantly improve the upper bound to $\tilde{\mathcal{O}}(n^3/(\varepsilon_2-\varepsilon_1)^5)$.
In the misspecified spectral algorithms problem, researchers usually assume the underground true function $f_{\rho}^{*} \in [\mathcal{H}]^{s}$, a less-smooth interpolation space of a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) $\mathcal{H}$ for some $s\in (0,1)$. The existing minimax optimal results require $\|f_{\rho}^{*}\|_{L^{\infty}}<\infty$ which implicitly requires $s > \alpha_{0}$ where $\alpha_{0}\in (0,1)$ is the embedding index, a constant depending on $\mathcal{H}$. Whether the spectral algorithms are optimal for all $s\in (0,1)$ is an outstanding problem lasting for years. In this paper, we show that spectral algorithms are minimax optimal for any $\alpha_{0}-\frac{1}{\beta} < s < 1$, where $\beta$ is the eigenvalue decay rate of $\mathcal{H}$. We also give several classes of RKHSs whose embedding index satisfies $ \alpha_0 = \frac{1}{\beta} $. Thus, the spectral algorithms are minimax optimal for all $s\in (0,1)$ on these RKHSs.
We introduce TeraHAC, a $(1+\epsilon)$-approximate hierarchical agglomerative clustering (HAC) algorithm which scales to trillion-edge graphs. Our algorithm is based on a new approach to computing $(1+\epsilon)$-approximate HAC, which is a novel combination of the nearest-neighbor chain algorithm and the notion of $(1+\epsilon)$-approximate HAC. Our approach allows us to partition the graph among multiple machines and make significant progress in computing the clustering within each partition before any communication with other partitions is needed. We evaluate TeraHAC on a number of real-world and synthetic graphs of up to 8 trillion edges. We show that TeraHAC requires over 100x fewer rounds compared to previously known approaches for computing HAC. It is up to 8.3x faster than SCC, the state-of-the-art distributed algorithm for hierarchical clustering, while achieving 1.16x higher quality. In fact, TeraHAC essentially retains the quality of the celebrated HAC algorithm while significantly improving the running time.
We consider the Max-$3$-Section problem, where we are given an undirected graph $ G=(V,E)$ equipped with non-negative edge weights $w :E\rightarrow \mathbb{R}_+$ and the goal is to find a partition of $V$ into three equisized parts while maximizing the total weight of edges crossing between different parts. Max-$3$-Section is closely related to other well-studied graph partitioning problems, e.g., Max-$k$-Cut, Max-$3$-Cut, and Max-Bisection. We present a polynomial time algorithm achieving an approximation of $ 0.795$, that improves upon the previous best known approximation of $ 0.673$. The requirement of multiple parts that have equal sizes renders Max-$3$-Section much harder to cope with compared to, e.g., Max-Bisection. We show a new algorithm that combines the existing approach of Lassere hierarchy along with a random cut strategy that suffices to give our result.
Let $ \bbB_n =\frac{1}{n}(\bbR_n + \bbT^{1/2}_n \bbX_n)(\bbR_n + \bbT^{1/2}_n \bbX_n)^* $ where $ \bbX_n $ is a $ p \times n $ matrix with independent standardized random variables, $ \bbR_n $ is a $ p \times n $ non-random matrix, representing the information, and $ \bbT_{n} $ is a $ p \times p $ non-random nonnegative definite Hermitian matrix. Under some conditions on $ \bbR_n \bbR_n^* $ and $ \bbT_n $, it has been proved that for any closed interval outside the support of the limit spectral distribution, with probability one there will be no eigenvalues falling in this interval for all $ p $ sufficiently large. The purpose of this paper is to carry on with the study of the support of the limit spectral distribution, and we show that there is an exact separation phenomenon: with probability one, the proper number of eigenvalues lie on either side of these intervals.
A $c$-labeling $\phi: V(G) \rightarrow \{1, 2, \hdots, c \}$ of graph $G$ is distinguishing if, for every non-trivial automorphism $\pi$ of $G$, there is some vertex $v$ so that $\phi(v) \neq \phi(\pi(v))$. The distinguishing number of $G$, $D(G)$, is the smallest $c$ such that $G$ has a distinguishing $c$-labeling. We consider a compact version of Tyshkevich's graph decomposition theorem where trivial components are maximally combined to form a complete graph or a graph of isolated vertices. Suppose the compact canonical decomposition of $G$ is $G_{k} \circ G_{k-1} \circ \cdots \circ G_1 \circ G_0$. We prove that $\phi$ is a distinguishing labeling of $G$ if and only if $\phi$ is a distinguishing labeling of $G_i$ when restricted to $V(G_i)$ for $i = 0, \hdots, k$. Thus, $D(G) = \max \{D(G_i), i = 0, \hdots, k \}$. We then present an algorithm that computes the distinguishing number of a unigraph in linear time.
A function $f : U \to \{0,\ldots,n-1\}$ is a minimal perfect hash function for a set $S \subseteq U$ of size $n$, if $f$ bijectively maps $S$ into the first $n$ natural numbers. These functions are important for many practical applications in computing, such as search engines, computer networks, and databases. Several algorithms have been proposed to build minimal perfect hash functions that: scale well to large sets, retain fast evaluation time, and take very little space, e.g., 2 - 3 bits/key. PTHash is one such algorithm, achieving very fast evaluation in compressed space, typically several times faster than other techniques. In this work, we propose a new construction algorithm for PTHash enabling: (1) multi-threading, to either build functions more quickly or more space-efficiently, and (2) external-memory processing to scale to inputs much larger than the available internal memory. Only few other algorithms in the literature share these features, despite of their big practical impact. We conduct an extensive experimental assessment on large real-world string collections and show that, with respect to other techniques, PTHash is competitive in construction time and space consumption, but retains 2 - 6$\times$ better lookup time.
A dictionary data structure maintains a set of at most $n$ keys from the universe $[U]$ under key insertions and deletions, such that given a query $x \in [U]$, it returns if $x$ is in the set. Some variants also store values associated to the keys such that given a query $x$, the value associated to $x$ is returned when $x$ is in the set. This fundamental data structure problem has been studied for six decades since the introduction of hash tables in 1953. A hash table occupies $O(n\log U)$ bits of space with constant time per operation in expectation. There has been a vast literature on improving its time and space usage. The state-of-the-art dictionary by Bender, Farach-Colton, Kuszmaul, Kuszmaul and Liu [BFCK+22] has space consumption close to the information-theoretic optimum, using a total of \[ \log\binom{U}{n}+O(n\log^{(k)} n) \] bits, while supporting all operations in $O(k)$ time, for any parameter $k \leq \log^* n$. The term $O(\log^{(k)} n) = O(\underbrace{\log\cdots\log}_k n)$ is referred to as the wasted bits per key. In this paper, we prove a matching cell-probe lower bound: For $U=n^{1+\Theta(1)}$, any dictionary with $O(\log^{(k)} n)$ wasted bits per key must have expected operational time $\Omega(k)$, in the cell-probe model with word-size $w=\Theta(\log U)$. Furthermore, if a dictionary stores values of $\Theta(\log U)$ bits, we show that regardless of the query time, it must have $\Omega(k)$ expected update time. It is worth noting that this is the first cell-probe lower bound on the trade-off between space and update time for general data structures.
We show that the minimax sample complexity for estimating the pseudo-spectral gap $\gamma_{\mathsf{ps}}$ of an ergodic Markov chain in constant multiplicative error is of the order of $$\tilde{\Theta}\left( \frac{1}{\gamma_{\mathsf{ps}} \pi_{\star}} \right),$$ where $\pi_\star$ is the minimum stationary probability, recovering the known bound in the reversible setting for estimating the absolute spectral gap [Hsu et al., 2019], and resolving an open problem of Wolfer and Kontorovich [2019]. Furthermore, we strengthen the known empirical procedure by making it fully-adaptive to the data, thinning the confidence intervals and reducing the computational complexity. Along the way, we derive new properties of the pseudo-spectral gap and introduce the notion of a reversible dilation of a stochastic matrix.
