We study SINGLE-SOURCE SHORTEST PATH (SSSP) on unweighted intersection graphs whose node set corresponds to a set of $n$ constant-complexity objects in the plane. We prove SSSP can be solved in $O(U(n…
We study discrete k-clustering problems in general metric spaces that are constrained by a combination of two different fairness conditions within the demographic fairness model. Given a metric space …
The subspace design property for additive codes is a higher-dimensional generalization of the minimum distance property. As shown recently by Brakensiek, Chen, Dhar and Zhang, it implies that the code…
We prove two results on the mixing times of Markov chains for two-spin systems. First, we show that the Glauber dynamics mixes in polynomial time for the Gibbs distributions of antiferromagnetic two-s…
The purpose of this paper is two-fold. First we show that Kim's building-up construction of binary self-dual codes is equivalent to Chinburg-Zhang's Hilbert symbol construction. Second we introduce a …
We develop the first theoretically-efficient algorithm for maintaining the maximal independent set (MIS) of a graph in the parallel batch-dynamic setting. In this setting, a graph is updated with batc…
Effective detection of unknown network security threats in multi-class imbalanced environments is critical for maintaining cyberspace security. Current methods focus on learning class representations …
Large Language Models (LLMs) and Vision-Language Models (VLMs) remain highly vulnerable to textual and visual jailbreaks, as well as prompt injections (arXiv:2307.15043, Greshake et al., 2023, arXiv:2…
Minimum dominating set is a basic local covering problem and a core task in distributed computing. Despite extensive study, in the classic LOCAL model there exist significant gaps between known algori…
Understanding humanity's earliest writing systems is crucial for reconstructing civilization's origins, yet many ancient scripts remain undeciphered. Oracle Bone Script (OBS) from China's Shang dynast…
The Pareto sum of two-dimensional point sets $P$ and $Q$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$ is defined as the skyline of the points in their Minkowski sum. The problem of efficiently computing the Pareto sum arises fr…
We study the complexity of approximating the partition function of dense Ising models in the critical regime. Recent work of Chen, Chen, Yin, and Zhang (FOCS 2025) established fast mixing at criticali…
The distance from calibration, introduced by B{\l}asiok, Gopalan, Hu, and Nakkiran (STOC 2023), has recently emerged as a central measure of miscalibration for probabilistic predictors. We study the f…
Locally decodable codes (LDCs) are error correction codes that allow recovery of any single message symbol by probing only a small number of positions from the (possibly corrupted) codeword. Relaxed l…
As the main contribution of this work we present deterministic edge coloring algorithms in the CONGEST model. In particular, we present an algorithm that edge colors any $n$-node graph with maximum de…
Sequential recommendation has rapidly advanced in click-through rate prediction due to its ability to model dynamic user interests. A key challenge, however, lies in modeling long sequences: users oft…
We establish an optimal upper bound (negative result) of $\sim 0.526$ on the competitive ratio of the fractional version of online bipartite matching with two-sided vertex arrivals, matching the lower…
We present a randomized algorithm for the single-source shortest paths (SSSP) problem on directed graphs with arbitrary real-valued edge weights that runs in $n^{2+o(1)}$ time with high probability. T…
We consider the single-source shortest paths problem on a directed graph with real-valued (possibly negative) edge weights and solve this problem in $n^{2+o(1)}$ time by refining the shortcutting proc…
Kleinberg and Mullainathan recently proposed a formal framework for studying the phenomenon of language generation, called language generation in the limit. In this model, an adversary gives an enumer…
