As this problem is known to be NP-hard, we investigate approximation algorithms. We present the first constant factor approximation algorithm if the depth is constant. Its approximation ratio is (1−1e√). This algorithm not only applies to phylogenetic trees with viability constraints but for arbitrary monotone submodular set functions with viability constraints.

The use of these models allows one to gain in flexibility by considering the model parameter set split into marginal and dependence parameters. However, this separation also leads to the natural issue of estimating only a subset of all model parameters. In this work, we treat this problem with the application of the (Formula presented.)-optimality to copula models. First, we provide an extension of the corresponding equivalence theory. Then, we analyze a wide range of flexible copula models to highlight the usefulness of (Formula presented.)-optimality in many possible scenarios.

There is compelling evidence for systematic differences in dispersal characteristics within the same population, i.e., genotype-dependent dispersal. The consequences of genotype-dependent dispersal on other evolutionary phenomena, however, are poorly understood. In this article we investigate the effect of genotype-dependent dispersal on spatial gene frequency patterns, using a generalization of the classical diffusion model of selection and dispersal. Dispersal is characterized by the variance of dispersal (diffusion coefficient) and the mean displacement (directional advection term). We demonstrate that genotype-dependent dispersal may change the qualitative behavior of Fisher waves, which change from being “pulled” to being “pushed” wave fronts as the discrepancy in dispersal between genotypes increases. The speed of any wave is partitioned into components due to selection, genotype-dependent variance of dispersal, and genotype-dependent mean displacement. We apply our findings to wave fronts maintained by selection against heterozygotes. Furthermore, we identify a benefit of increased variance of dispersal, quantify its effect on the speed of the wave, and discuss the implications for the evolution of dispersal strategies."}],"title":"Spatial gene frequency waves under genotype dependent dispersal","date_updated":"2025-05-28T11:42:46Z","ddc":["576"],"issue":"1","date_published":"2017-01-01T00:00:00Z","_id":"1169","user_id":"c635000d-4b10-11ee-a964-aac5a93f6ac1","project":[{"grant_number":"618091","name":"Speed of Adaptation in Population Genetics and Evolutionary Computation","_id":"25B1EC9E-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","call_identifier":"FP7"},{"call_identifier":"FP7","_id":"25B07788-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","grant_number":"250152","name":"Limits to selection in biology and in evolutionary computation"}],"doi":"10.1534/genetics.116.193946","publisher":"Genetics Society of America","ec_funded":1,"department":[{"_id":"NiBa"}],"publication_status":"published","author":[{"full_name":"Novak, Sebastian","orcid":"0000-0002-2519-824X","id":"461468AE-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Sebastian","last_name":"Novak"},{"first_name":"Richard","last_name":"Kollár","full_name":"Kollár, Richard"}]},{"oa_version":"Submitted Version","citation":{"mla":"Edelsbrunner, Herbert, et al. “The Voronoi Functional Is Maximized by the Delaunay Triangulation in the Plane.” <i>Combinatorica</i>, vol. 37, no. 5, Springer, 2017, pp. 887–910, doi:<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1007/s00493-016-3308-y\">10.1007/s00493-016-3308-y</a>.","ieee":"H.

The adversary, within certain resources, cannot win with probability much better than 0 (for unpredictability applications, like one-way functions) or much better than 1/2 (indistinguishability applications for instance encryption schemes). In so called squared-friendly applications the winning probability of the adversary, for different values of the application secret randomness, is not only close to 0 or 1/2 on average, but also concentrated in the sense that its second central moment is small. The class of squared-friendly applications, which contains all unpredictability applications and many indistinguishability applications, is particularly important for key derivation. Barak et al. observed that for square-friendly applications one can beat the &quot;RT-bound&quot;, extracting secure keys with significantly smaller entropy loss. In turn Dodis and Yu showed that in squared-friendly applications one can directly use a &quot;weak&quot; key, which has only high entropy, as a secure key. In this paper we give sharp lower bounds on square security assuming security for &quot;weak&quot; keys. We show that any application which is either (a) secure with weak keys or (b) allows for entropy savings for keys derived by universal hashing, must be square-friendly. Quantitatively, our lower bounds match the positive results of Dodis and Yu and Barak et al. (TCC\\'13, CRYPTO\\'11) Hence, they can be understood as a general characterization of squared-friendly applications. While the positive results on squared-friendly applications where derived by one clever application of the Cauchy-Schwarz Inequality, for tight lower bounds we need more machinery. In our approach we use convex optimization techniques and some theory of circular matrices."}],"quality_controlled":"1","article_processing_charge":"No","intvolume":"        66","oa":1,"external_id":{"isi":["000521077300057"]},"isi":1,"publist_id":"6180","month":"03","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"date_created":"2018-12-11T11:50:32Z","status":"public","conference":{"name":"STACS: Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science","end_date":"2017-03-11","start_date":"2017-03-08","location":"Hannover, Germany"},"day":"01"},{"has_accepted_license":"1","publist_id":"6179","file":[{"relation":"main_file","creator":"system","content_type":"application/pdf","file_size":557769,"access_level":"open_access","file_name":"IST-2018-927-v1+1_LIPIcs-ITCS-2017-38.pdf","date_created":"2018-12-12T10:17:11Z","file_id":"5263","date_updated":"2020-07-14T12:44:37Z","checksum":"dbc94810be07c2fb1945d5c2a6130e6c"}],"oa":1,"intvolume":"        67","file_date_updated":"2020-07-14T12:44:37Z","quality_controlled":"1","day":"01","conference":{"end_date":"2017-01-11","name":"ITCS: Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science","location":"Berkeley, CA, United States","start_date":"2017-01-09"},"page":"38:1-38-21","status":"public","date_created":"2018-12-11T11:50:33Z","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"tmp":{"legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","short":"CC BY (4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png"},"pubrep_id":"927","month":"01","doi":"10.4230/LIPIcs.ITCS.2017.38","alternative_title":["LIPIcs"],"publisher":"Schloss Dagstuhl - Leibniz-Zentrum für Informatik","department":[{"_id":"KrPi"}],"author":[{"first_name":"Joel F","last_name":"Alwen","full_name":"Alwen, Joel F","id":"2A8DFA8C-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"},{"full_name":"De Rezende, Susanna","first_name":"Susanna","last_name":"De Rezende"},{"full_name":"Nordstrom, Jakob","last_name":"Nordstrom","first_name":"Jakob"},{"last_name":"Vinyals","first_name":"Marc","full_name":"Vinyals, Marc"}],"publication_status":"published","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","_id":"1175","abstract":[{"text":"We study space complexity and time-space trade-offs with a focus not on peak memory usage but on overall memory consumption throughout the computation.

An older version (Argon2i-A) of the same algorithm was chosen as the winner of the recent Password Hashing Competition. An important competitor to Argon2i-B is the recently introduced Balloon Hashing (BH) algorithm of Corrigan-Gibs, Boneh and Schechter. A key security desiderata for any such algorithm is that evaluating it (even using a custom device) requires a large amount of memory amortized across multiple instances. Alwen and Blocki (CRYPTO 2016) introduced a class of theoretical attacks against Argon2i-A and BH. While these attacks yield large asymptotic reductions in the amount of memory, it was not, a priori, clear if (1) they can be extended to the newer Argon2i-B, (2) the attacks are effective on any algorithm for practical parameter ranges (e.g., 1GB of memory) and (3) if they can be effectively instantiated against any algorithm under realistic hardware constrains. In this work we answer all three of these questions in the affirmative for all three algorithms. This is also the first work to analyze the security of Argon2i-B. In more detail, we extend the theoretical attacks of Alwen and Blocki (CRYPTO 2016) to the recent Argon2i-B proposal demonstrating severe asymptotic deficiencies in its security. Next we introduce several novel heuristics for improving the attack's concrete memory efficiency even when on-chip memory bandwidth is bounded. We then simulate our attacks on randomly sampled Argon2i-A, Argon2i-B and BH instances and measure the resulting memory consumption for various practical parameter ranges and for a variety of upperbounds on the amount of parallelism available to the attacker. Finally we describe, implement, and test a new heuristic for applying the Alwen-Blocki attack to functions employing a technique developed by Corrigan-Gibs et al. for improving concrete security of memory-hard functions. We analyze the collected data and show the effects various parameters have on the memory consumption of the attack. In particular, we can draw several interesting conclusions about the level of security provided by these functions. · For the Alwen-Blocki attack to fail against practical memory parameters, Argon2i-B must be instantiated with more than 10 passes on memory - beyond the \"paranoid\" parameter setting in the current IRTF proposal. · The technique of Corrigan-Gibs for improving security can also be overcome by the Alwen-Blocki attack under realistic hardware constraints. · On a positive note, both the asymptotic and concrete security of Argon2i-B seem to improve on that of Argon2i-A."}],"article_number":"7961977","title":"Towards practical attacks on Argon2i and balloon hashing","date_updated":"2023-09-20T11:22:25Z","date_published":"2017-07-03T00:00:00Z","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://eprint.iacr.org/2016/759","open_access":"1"}],"oa_version":"Submitted Version","citation":{"ama":"Alwen JF, Blocki J.

This idea of simulating auxiliary information turns out to be a very usefull tool, finding applications in complexity theory, cryptography, pseudorandomness and zero-knowledge. In this paper we revisit this problem, achieving the following results: (a) We present a novel boosting algorithm for constructing the simulator. This boosting proof is of independent interest, as it shows how to handle “negative mass” issues when constructing probability measures by shifting distinguishers in descent algorithms. Our technique essentially fixes the flaw in the TCC’14 paper “How to Fake Auxiliary Inputs”. (b) The complexity of our simulator is better than in previous works, including results derived from the uniform min-max theorem due to Vadhan and Zheng. To achieve (s,ϵ) -indistinguishability we need the complexity O(s⋅25ℓϵ−2) in time/circuit size, which improve previous bounds by a factor of ϵ−2.

The sensitivity model is particularly appealing since recent strong conditional lower bounds ruled out fast algorithms for many dynamic problems, such as shortest paths, reachability, or subgraph connectivity.\r\n\r\nIn this paper we prove conditional lower bounds for these and additional problems in a sensitivity setting. For example, we show that under the Boolean Matrix Multiplication (BMM) conjecture combinatorial algorithms cannot compute the (4/3-\\varepsilon)-approximate diameter of an undirected unweighted dense graph with truly subcubic preprocessing time and truly subquadratic update/query time. This result is surprising since in the static setting it is not clear whether a reduction from BMM to diameter is possible. We further show under the BMM conjecture that many problems, such as reachability or approximate shortest paths, cannot be solved faster than by recomputation from scratch even after only one or two edge insertions. We extend our reduction from BMM to Diameter to give a reduction from All Pairs Shortest Paths to Diameter under one deletion in weighted graphs. This is intriguing, as in the static setting it is a big open problem whether Diameter is as hard as APSP. We further get a nearly tight lower bound for shortest paths after two edge deletions based on the APSP conjecture. We give more lower bounds under the Strong Exponential Time Hypothesis. Many of our lower bounds also hold for static oracle data structures where no sensitivity is required.\r\n\r\nFinally, we give the first algorithm for the (1+\\varepsilon)-approximate radius, diameter, and eccentricity problems in directed or undirected unweighted graphs in case of single edges failures. The algorithm has a truly subcubic running time for graphs with a truly subquadratic number of edges; it is tight w.r.t. the conditional lower bounds we obtain."}],"title":"Conditional hardness for sensitivity problems","article_number":"26","date_updated":"2023-02-16T11:49:15Z","date_published":"2017-11-28T00:00:00Z","main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://doi.org/10.4230/LIPICS.ITCS.2017.26"}],"citation":{"ieee":"M.

In this work we study Vertex Sparsifiers, i.e., sparsifiers whose goal is to reduce the number of vertices. Given a weighted graph G=(V,E), and a terminal set K with |K|=k, a quality-q vertex cut sparsifier of G is a graph H with K contained in V_H that preserves the value of minimum cuts separating any bipartition of K, up to a factor of q. We show that planar graphs with all the k terminals lying on the same face admit quality-1 vertex cut sparsifier of size O(k^2) that are also planar. Our result extends to vertex flow and distance sparsifiers. It improves the previous best known bound of O(k^2 2^(2k)) for cut and flow sparsifiers by an exponential factor, and matches an Omega(k^2) lower-bound for this class of graphs.\r\n\r\nWe also study vertex reachability sparsifiers for directed graphs. Given a digraph G=(V,E) and a terminal set K, a vertex reachability sparsifier of G is a digraph H=(V_H,E_H), K contained in V_H that preserves all reachability information among terminal pairs. We introduce the notion of reachability-preserving minors, i.e., we require H to be a minor of G. Among others, for general planar digraphs, we construct reachability-preserving minors of size O(k^2 log^2 k). We complement our upper-bound by showing that there exists an infinite family of acyclic planar digraphs such that any reachability-preserving minor must have Omega(k^2) vertices.","lang":"eng"}],"date_published":"2017-09-01T00:00:00Z","main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://doi.org/10.4230/LIPIcs.ESA.2017.44"}],"date_updated":"2023-02-21T16:32:16Z"},{"oa":1,"external_id":{"arxiv":["1707.02577"]},"intvolume":"        87","article_processing_charge":"No","quality_controlled":"1","status":"public","date_created":"2022-08-12T09:58:46Z","day":"01","publication":"25th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms","conference":{"name":"ESA: Annual European Symposium on Algorithms","end_date":"2017-09-06","location":"Vienna, Austria","start_date":"2017-09-04"},"month":"09","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"author":[{"last_name":"Henzinger","first_name":"Monika H","id":"540c9bbd-f2de-11ec-812d-d04a5be85630","full_name":"Henzinger, Monika H","orcid":"0000-0002-5008-6530"},{"full_name":"Leniowski, Dariusz","first_name":"Dariusz","last_name":"Leniowski"},{"last_name":"Mathieu","first_name":"Claire","full_name":"Mathieu, Claire"}],"publication_status":"published","doi":"10.4230/LIPICS.ESA.2017.48","alternative_title":["LIPIcs"],"arxiv":1,"publisher":"Schloss Dagstuhl - Leibniz-Zentrum für Informatik","extern":"1","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","_id":"11832","date_updated":"2023-02-16T11:54:12Z","main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://doi.org/10.4230/LIPICS.ESA.2017.48"}],"date_published":"2017-09-01T00:00:00Z","abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"In this paper, we study the problem of opening centers to cluster a set of clients in a metric space so as to minimize the sum of the costs of the centers and of the cluster radii, in a dynamic environment where clients arrive and depart, and the solution must be updated efficiently while remaining competitive with respect to the current optimal solution.

For r=n^{2/3}, this gives tilde{O}(n^{2/3} epsilon^{-2}) update time and tilde{O}(n^{2/3} epsilon^{-2}) query time.

Furthermore, we illustrate our framework on the all-pairs max flow and shortest path problems by giving corresponding dynamic algorithms in minor-free graphs with both sublinear update and query times. To the best of our knowledge, our results are the first to systematically establish such a connection between dynamic graph algorithms and vertex sparsification.\r\n\r\nWe also present both upper bound and lower bound for maintaining the energy of electrical flows in the incremental subgraph model, where updates consist of only vertex activations, which might be of independent interest."}],"main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://doi.org/10.4230/LIPIcs.ESA.2017.45"}],"date_published":"2017-09-01T00:00:00Z","date_updated":"2023-02-16T11:56:37Z","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","_id":"11833","extern":"1","alternative_title":["LIPIcs"],"arxiv":1,"publisher":"Schloss Dagstuhl - Leibniz-Zentrum für Informatik","doi":"10.4230/LIPICS.ESA.2017.45","author":[{"last_name":"Goranci","first_name":"Gramoz","full_name":"Goranci, Gramoz"},{"first_name":"Monika H","last_name":"Henzinger","orcid":"0000-0002-5008-6530","full_name":"Henzinger, Monika H","id":"540c9bbd-f2de-11ec-812d-d04a5be85630"},{"full_name":"Peng, Pan","first_name":"Pan","last_name":"Peng"}],"publication_status":"published","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"month":"09","conference":{"location":"Vienna, Austria","start_date":"2017-09-04","name":"ESA: Annual European Symposium on Algorithms","end_date":"2017-09-06"},"publication":"25th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms","day":"01","date_created":"2022-08-12T10:46:26Z","status":"public","quality_controlled":"1","article_processing_charge":"No","intvolume":"        87","external_id":{"arxiv":["1712.06473"]},"oa":1},{"date_created":"2018-12-11T11:50:37Z","status":"public","publication":"Journal of Cryptology","related_material":{"record":[{"relation":"earlier_version","id":"3238","status":"public"}]},"page":"1238 - 1275","day":"01","month":"10","article_type":"original","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"oa":1,"external_id":{"isi":["000410788600007"]},"file":[{"relation":"main_file","file_name":"2017_JournalCrypto_Kiltz.pdf","date_created":"2020-05-14T16:30:17Z","access_level":"open_access","file_size":516959,"checksum":"c647520d115b772a1682fc06fa273eb1","date_updated":"2020-07-14T12:44:37Z","file_id":"7843","content_type":"application/pdf","creator":"dernst"}],"isi":1,"has_accepted_license":"1","publist_id":"6166","file_date_updated":"2020-07-14T12:44:37Z","article_processing_charge":"No","quality_controlled":"1","intvolume":"        30","date_published":"2017-10-01T00:00:00Z","ddc":["000"],"issue":"4","date_updated":"2023-09-20T11:20:58Z","title":"Efficient authentication from hard learning problems","abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"We construct efficient authentication protocols and message authentication codes (MACs) whose security can be reduced to the learning parity with noise (LPN) problem.

To find these cuts they use a diffusion-based local algorithm. We use instead a flow- based local algorithm and suitably adjust their framework to work with our flow-based subroutine. Both flow and diffusion based methods have a long history of being applied to finding low conductance cuts. Diffusion algorithms have several variants that are naturally local while it is more complicated to make flow methods local. Some prior work has proven nice properties for local flow based algorithms with respect to improving or cleaning up low conductance cuts. Our flow subroutine, however, is the first that is both local and produces low conductance cuts.

Starting with the seminal paper by Onak and Rubinfeld [STOC 2010], this problem has received significant attention in recent years. There remains, however, a polynomial gap between the best known worst case update time and the best known amortised update time for this problem, even after allowing for randomisation. Specifically, Bernstein and Stein [ICALP 2015, SODA 2016] have the best known worst case update time. They present a deterministic data structure with approximation ratio (3/2 + ∊) and worst case update time O(m1/4/ ∊2), where m is the number of edges in the graph. In recent past, Gupta and Peng [FOCS 2013] gave a deterministic data structure with approximation ratio (1+ ∊) and worst case update time  No known randomised data structure beats the worst case update times of these two results. In contrast, the paper by Onak and Rubinfeld [STOC 2010] gave a randomised data structure with approximation ratio O(1) and amortised update time O(log2 n), where n is the number of nodes in the graph. This was later improved by Baswana, Gupta and Sen [FOCS 2011] and Solomon [FOCS 2016], leading to a randomised date structure with approximation ratio 2 and amortised update time O(1).\r\n\r\nWe bridge the polynomial gap between the worst case and amortised update times for this problem, without using any randomisation.

When distributing items among agents forming a social network, this information allows us to exploit network externalities that each agent receives from his neighbors that get the same item. In this paper we consider Friends-of-Friends (2-hop) network externalities, i.e., externalities that not only depend on the neighbors that get the same item but also on neighbors of neighbors. For these externalities we study a setting where multiple different items are assigned to unit-demand agents. Specifically, we study the problem of welfare maximization under different types of externality functions. Let n be the number of agents and m be the number of items. Our contributions are the following: (1) We show that welfare maximization is APX-hard; we show that even for step functions with 2-hop (and also with 1-hop) externalities it is NP-hard to approximate social welfare better than (1−1/e). (2) On the positive side we present (i) an 𝑂(𝑛√)-approximation algorithm for general concave externality functions, (ii) an O(log m)-approximation algorithm for linear externality functions, and (iii) a 518(1−1/𝑒)-approximation algorithm for 2-hop step function externalities. We also improve the result from [7] for 1-hop step function externalities by giving a 12(1−1/𝑒)-approximation algorithm.","lang":"eng"}],"issue":"4","date_published":"2017-11-01T00:00:00Z","main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://doi.org/10.1007/s00224-017-9759-8"}],"date_updated":"2023-02-21T16:29:58Z","article_processing_charge":"No","quality_controlled":"1","intvolume":"        61","oa":1,"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"article_type":"original","month":"11","page":"948-986","publication":"Theory of Computing Systems","related_material":{"record":[{"id":"11837","relation":"earlier_version","status":"public"}]},"day":"01","date_created":"2022-08-17T11:14:12Z","status":"public"},{"user_id":"3E5EF7F0-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","_id":"1191","project":[{"call_identifier":"FP7","_id":"25B1EC9E-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","name":"Speed of Adaptation in Population Genetics and Evolutionary Computation","grant_number":"618091"},{"call_identifier":"FP7","name":"Limits to selection in biology and in evolutionary computation","grant_number":"250152","_id":"25B07788-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425"}],"doi":"10.1007/s11538-016-0244-3","ec_funded":1,"publisher":"Springer","department":[{"_id":"NiBa"}],"publication_status":"published","author":[{"first_name":"Richard","last_name":"Kollár","full_name":"Kollár, Richard"},{"id":"461468AE-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Novak, Sebastian","orcid":"0000-0002-2519-824X","last_name":"Novak","first_name":"Sebastian"}],"citation":{"chicago":"Kollár, Richard, and Sebastian Novak. “Existence of Traveling Waves for the Generalized F–KPP Equation.” <i>Bulletin of Mathematical Biology</i>.

These traits may favor certain genotypes and enhance their spatiotemporal spreading into areas occupied by the less advantageous genotypes. We study how these factors influence the speed of spreading in the case of two competing genotypes under the assumption that spatial variation of the total population is small compared to the spatial variation of the frequencies of the genotypes in the population. In that case, the dynamics of the frequency of one of the genotypes is approximately described by a generalized Fisher–Kolmogorov–Petrovskii–Piskunov (F–KPP) equation. This generalized F–KPP equation with (nonlinear) frequency-dependent diffusion and advection terms admits traveling wave solutions that characterize the invasion of the dominant genotype. Our existence results generalize the classical theory for traveling waves for the F–KPP with constant coefficients. Moreover, in the particular case of the quadratic (monostable) nonlinear growth–decay rate in the generalized F–KPP we study in detail the influence of the variance in diffusion and mean displacement rates of the two genotypes on the minimal wave propagation speed.","lang":"eng"}],"title":"Existence of traveling waves for the generalized F–KPP equation","date_updated":"2025-05-28T11:42:46Z","date_published":"2017-03-01T00:00:00Z","main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://arxiv.org/abs/1607.00944"}],"issue":"3","intvolume":"        79","acknowledgement":"We thank Nick Barton, Katarína Bod’ová, and Sr\r\n-\r\ndan Sarikas for constructive feed-\r\nback and support.
