A corollary of Fagin's characterization of NP by existential second-order logic is that #P can be logically described as the class of functions counting satisfying assignments to free relation variables in first-order formulae. In this paper we extend this study to classes beyond #P and extensions of first-order logic with team semantics. These team-based logics are closely related to existential second-order logic and its fragments, hence our results also shed light on the complexity of counting for extensions of FO in Tarski's semantics. Our results show that the class #$cdot$NP can be logically characterized by independence logic and existential second-order logic, whereas dependence logic and inclusion logic give rise to subclasses of #$cdot$NP and #P , respectively. Our main technical result shows that the problem of counting satisfying assignments for monotone Boolean $Sigma_1$-formulae is #$cdot$NP-complete as well as complete for the function class generated by dependence logic.","PeriodicalId":369104,"journal":{"name":"International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117041346","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}

Given a randomly generated additive subgroup $(G,+)$ of rationals, two main questions are addressed: first, what are the model-theoretic and recursion-theoretic properties of $(G,+)$; second, what learnability properties can one extract from $G$ and its subclass of finitely generated subgroups? \u0000For the first question, it is shown that the theory of $(G,+)$ coincides with that of the additive group of integers and is therefore decidable; furthermore, while the word problem for $G$ with respect to any generating sequence for $G$ is not even semi-decidable, one can build a generating sequence $beta$ such that the word problem for $G$ with respect to $beta$ is co-recursively enumerable (assuming that the set of generators of $G$ is limit-recursive). \u0000In regard to the second question, it is proven that there is a generating sequence $beta$ for $G$ such that every non-trivial finitely generated subgroup of $G$ is recursively enumerable and the class of all such subgroups of $G$ is behaviourally correctly learnable, that is, every non-trivial finitely generated subgroup can be semantically identified in the limit (again assuming that the set of generators of $G$ is limit-recursive). On the other hand, the class of non-trivial finitely generated subgroups of $G$ cannot be syntactically identified in the limit with respect to any generating sequence for $G$. The present work thus contributes to a recent line of research studying algorithmically random infinite structures and uncovers an interesting connection between the arithmetical complexity of the set of generators of a randomly generated subgroup of rationals and the learnability of its finitely generated subgroups.","PeriodicalId":369104,"journal":{"name":"International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128404166","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 present a proof-of-principle sublinear-time algorithm for solving SDPs with low-rank constraints; specifically, given an SDP with $m$ constraint matrices, each of dimension $n$ and rank $r$, our algorithm can compute any entry and efficient descriptions of the spectral decomposition of the solution matrix. The algorithm runs in time $O(mcdotmathrm{poly}(log n,r,1/varepsilon))$ given access to a sampling-based low-overhead data structure for the constraint matrices, where $varepsilon$ is the precision of the solution. In addition, we apply our algorithm to a quantum state learning task as an application. \u0000Technically, our approach aligns with 1) SDP solvers based on the matrix multiplicative weight (MMW) framework by Arora and Kale [TOC '12]; 2) sampling-based dequantizing framework pioneered by Tang [STOC '19]. In order to compute the matrix exponential required in the MMW framework, we introduce two new techniques that may be of independent interest: \u0000$bullet$ Weighted sampling: assuming sampling access to each individual constraint matrix $A_{1},ldots,A_{tau}$, we propose a procedure that gives a good approximation of $A=A_{1}+cdots+A_{tau}$. \u0000$bullet$ Symmetric approximation: we propose a sampling procedure that gives the emph{spectral decomposition} of a low-rank Hermitian matrix $A$. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first sampling-based algorithm for spectral decomposition, as previous works only give singular values and vectors.","PeriodicalId":369104,"journal":{"name":"International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126696693","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 agents can move along the edges of the graph, starting at time 0 with respect to the following: Each agent i has a weight w_i that defines the rate of energy consumption while travelling a distance in the graph, and a velocity v_i with which it can move. We are interested in schedules (operating the k agents) that result in a small delivery time T (time when the package arrives at t), and small total energy consumption E. Concretely, we ask for a schedule that: either (i) Minimizes T, (ii) Minimizes lexicographically (T,E) (prioritizing fast delivery), or (iii) Minimizes epsilon*T + (1-epsilon)*E, for a given epsilon, 0<epsilon<1.

The vertex set of each graph in the sequence remains the same; however, the edge sets are allowed to differ. A natural problem on temporal graphs is the Temporal Exploration problem (TEXP): given, as input, a temporal graph G of order n, we are tasked with computing an exploration schedule (i.e., a temporal walk that visits all vertices in G), such that the time step at which the walk arrives at the last unvisited vertex is minimised (we refer to this time step as the arrival time). It can be easily shown that general temporal graphs admit exploration schedules with arrival time no greater than O(n2). Moreover, it has been shown previously that there exists an infinite family of temporal graphs for which any exploration schedule has arrival time Ω(n2), making these bounds tight for general TEXP instances. We consider restricted instances of TEXP, in which the temporal graph given as input is, in every time step, of maximum degree d; we show an O( n 2 logn ) bound on the arrival time when d is constant, and an O(d log d · n2 logn ) bound when d is given as some function of n. 2012 ACM Subject Classification Mathematics of computing → Graph algorithms","PeriodicalId":369104,"journal":{"name":"International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122552465","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 say that the graph is rainbow vertex-connected if there is a rainbow vertex path between every pair of its vertices. We study the problem of deciding whether the vertices of a given graph can be colored with at most k colors so that the graph becomes rainbow vertex-connected. Although edge-colorings have been studied extensively under similar constraints, there are significantly fewer results on the vertex variant that we consider. In particular, its complexity on structured graph classes was explicitly posed as an open question.\u0000We show that the problem remains NP-complete even on bipartite apex graphs and on split graphs. The former can be seen as a first step in the direction of studying the complexity of rainbow coloring on sparse graphs, an open problem which has attracted attention but limited progress. We also give hardness of approximation results for both bipartite and split graphs. To complement the negative results, we show that bipartite permutation graphs, interval graphs, and block graphs can be rainbow vertex-connected optimally in polynomial time.","PeriodicalId":369104,"journal":{"name":"International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128937440","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 show that if G is bipartite, then running the Greedy matching algorithm on a sampled subgraph of G produces enough additional edges that can be used to augment M such that the resulting matching is of size at least (2 −√ 2) | M ∗ | ≈ 0 . 5857 | M ∗ | (ignoring lower order terms) with high probability. The main applications of our method lie in the area of data streaming algorithms, where an algorithm performs few passes over the edges of an n -vertex graph while maintaining a memory of size O ( n polylog n ). Our method immediately yields a very simple two-pass algorithm for Maximum Bipartite Matching ( MBM ) with approximation factor 0 . 5857, which only runs the Greedy matching algorithm in each pass. This slightly improves on the much more involved 0 . 583-approximation algorithm of Esfandiari et al. [ICDMW 2016].
