A sequence of approximation algorithms is developed for the problem, with each step yielding a better ratio at the cost of a more complicated solution. The approximation ratio of our final algorithm is O/spl tilde/(n/sup 0.3885/). We also present a method for converting an approximation algorithm for an unweighted graph problem (from a specific class of maximization problems) into one for the corresponding weighted problem, and apply it to the densest subgraph problem.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":253303,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1993 IEEE 34th Annual Foundations of Computer Science","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127050602","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our main result states that this class is identical to P/sup NP/ [O(log n)], the class of problems solvable in polynomial time with a logarithmic number of queries to an oracle in NP. Using this result we show that the following problems are all P/sup NP/[O(logn)] complete: validity-checking of formulas in Carnap's modal logic, checking whether a formula is almost surely valid over finite structures in modal logics K, T, and S4, and checking whether a formula belongs to the stable set of beliefs generated by a propositional theory.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":253303,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1993 IEEE 34th Annual Foundations of Computer Science","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130663604","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper we assume the arithmetic model for computation. We give an algorithm for the real root problem: where all the roots of the polynomial are real. Our real root algorithm has time cost of O(nlog/sup 2/ n(log n+log b)), where b=m+/spl mu/, thus has time bound O(nlog/sup 3/ n) even in the case of high precision m+/spl mu//spl les/n/sup O(1/). This is within a small polylog factor of optimality, thus (perhaps surprisingly) upper bounding the arithmetic complexity of our real root problem to nearly the same as basic arithmetic operations on polynomials. We require only /spl pi/=O(n(/spl mu/+m+n)) bits of precision to carry out our computations. The Boolean complexity of our algorithm is a multiplicative factor of M(/spl pi/)=O(/spl pi/(log /spl pi/)loglog /spl pi/) more.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":253303,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1993 IEEE 34th Annual Foundations of Computer Science","volume":"275 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133646087","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The algorithm runs in time that is polynomial in N (the number of nodes in the network) and /spl epsiv//sup -1/ (the closeness of the approximation to optimal). The algorithm is remarkable in that it is much simpler than all known polynomial time flow algorithms (including algorithms for the special case of one-commodity flow). In particular, the algorithm does not rely on augmenting paths, shortest paths, min-cost paths, or similar techniques to push flow through a network. In fact, no explicit attempt is ever made to push flow towards a sink during the algorithm. Because the algorithm is so simple, it can be applied to a variety of problems for which centralized decision making and flow planning is not possible. For example, the algorithm can be easily implemented with local control in a distributed network and it can be made tolerant to link failures. In addition, the algorithm appears to perform well in practice. Initial experiments using the DIMACS generator of test problems indicate that the algorithm performs as well as or better than previously known algorithms, at least for certain test problems.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":253303,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1993 IEEE 34th Annual Foundations of Computer Science","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129269024","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We give polynomial time Las Vegas algorithms (randomized, with guaranteed correct output) for basic problems for finite matrix groups over the rationals (and over algebraic number fields): testing membership, determining the order, finding a presentation (generators and relations), and finding basic building blocks: center, composition factors, and Sylow subgroups. These results extend previous work on permutation groups into the potentially more significant domain of matrix groups. Such an extension has until recently been considered intractable. In case of matrix groups G of characteristic p, there are two basic types of obstacles to polynomial-time computation: number theoretic (factoring, discrete log) and large Lie-type simple groups of the same characteristic p involved in the group. The number theoretic obstacles are inherent and appear already in handling abelian groups. They can be handled by moderately efficient (subexponential) algorithms. We are able to locate all the nonabelian obstacles in a normal subgroup N and solve all problems listed above for G/N.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":253303,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1993 IEEE 34th Annual Foundations of Computer Science","volume":"122 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128005694","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
