Computing Lewis Weights to High Precision by Fixed-Point Iteration

arXiv:2609.04338v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The $\ell_p$-Lewis weights of a matrix are defined by a fixed-point equation. For $p<4$, Cohen and Peng [CP15] showed that iterating an equivalent rearrangement of this…

Machine Unlearning as Private Retroactive Algorithms

arXiv:2609.05329v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Machine unlearning typically aims to emulate retraining from scratch: upon a deletion request, the unlearning algorithm should produce an outcome that would have been…

Online Matching in Convex Bipartite Graphs

arXiv:2609.05057v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Online resource-allocation systems, like outpatient scheduling and spectrum allocation, often assign sequentially arriving requests to an ordered pool of scarce resources,…

Strategic Facility Location in Euclidean Spaces

arXiv:2609.05132v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The strategic facility location problem is defined as follows: $n$ agents report their location in a metric space, and the objective is to design a \emph{mechanism}…

Multiobjective Hypergraph Min-Cut in Quasi-Polynomial Time

arXiv:2609.04389v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study the multiobjective hypergraph min-cut problem: Given a hypergraph $H=(V,E)$ and $k$ cost functions $c_1, c_2, \ldots, c_k:E\to\mathbb{Z}_{\ge 0}$, the goal is to…

Colorful Minors

arXiv:2507.10467v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce the notion of colorful minors, which generalizes the classical concept of rooted minors in graphs. A $q$-colorful graph= is defined as a pair $(G,…

The Popular Dimension of Matchings

arXiv:2509.25150v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study popular matchings in three classical settings: the house allocation problem, the marriage problem, and the roommates problem. In the popular matching…

Trade-off between spread and width for tree decompositions

arXiv:2601.04040v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The spread of a vertex $v$ in a tree decomposition is the number of bags that contain $v$. We study the trade-off between spread and width in tree…

A Polymatroidal Perspective on Random Contraction

arXiv:2609.04521v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Karger's elegant random contraction algorithm for finding a global mincut in a graph has been highly influential. More recent work has obtained several different…
