Rounds vs Communication Tradeoffs for Maximal Independent Sets

Sepehr Assadi, Gillat Kol, Zhijun Zhang

We consider the problem of finding a maximal independent set (MIS) in the shared blackboard communication model with vertex-partitioned inputs. There are players corresponding…

Statistically Near-Optimal Hypothesis Selection

Olivier Bousquet, Mark Braverman, Klim Efremenko +2

Hypothesis Selection is a fundamental distribution learning problem where given a comparator-class of distributions, and a sampling access to an unknown tar…

Near-Optimal Two-Pass Streaming Algorithm for Sampling Random Walks over Directed Graphs

Lijie Chen, Gillat Kol, Dmitry Paramonov +3

For a directed graph with vertices and a start vertex , we wish to (approximately) sample an -step random walk over starting from with…

Multi-Pass Graph Streaming Lower Bounds for Cycle Counting, MAX-CUT, Matching Size, and Other Problems

Sepehr Assadi, Gillat Kol, Raghuvansh R. Saxena +1

Consider the following gap cycle counting problem in the streaming model: The edges of a -regular -vertex graph are arriving one-by-one in a stream and we are promised th…

Convex Set Disjointness, Distributed Learning of Halfspaces, and LP Feasibility

Mark Braverman, Gillat Kol, Shay Moran +1

We study the Convex Set Disjointness (CSD) problem, where two players have input sets taken from an arbitrary fixed domain~ of size . T…
