摘要:
在本文中,我们提供了一种统一且简化的方法,对容错图算法领域的核心结果进行去随机化。给定图 $G$、顶点对 $(s,t) \in V(G)\times V(G)$ 以及边故障集合 $F \subseteq E(G)$,替换路径 $P(s,t,F)$ 是 $G \setminus F$ 中的一条 $s$-$t$ 最短路径。对于整数参数 $L,f$,替换路径覆盖(RPC)是 $G$ 的子图集合,记为 $\textit{G}_{L,f}=\{G_1,\ldots, G_r \}$,使得对于任意最多包含 $f$ 个故障的集合 $F$(即 $|F|\le f$)以及任意最多包含 $L$ 条边的替换路径 $P(s,t,F)$,都存在子图 $G_i\in \textit{G}_{L,f}$ 包含 $P$ 的所有边且不包含 $F$ 的任何边。RPC $\textit{G}_{L,f}$ 的覆盖值则定义为 $\textit{G}_{L,f}$ 中子图的数量。针对大范围的参数,我们提出了高效的确定性 $(L,f)$-RPC 构造方法,其覆盖值几乎与随机化方法相匹配。我们的时间和覆盖值界限相比 Parter(DISC 2019)的先前构造有了显著改进。我们还为这些覆盖的值提供了几乎匹配的下界。上述确定性构造的一个关键应用是对 Weimann 和 Yuster(FOCS 2010)的距离敏感性预言机代数构造进行去随机化。我们确定性算法的预处理和查询时间几乎与随机化界限相匹配。这解决了 Alon、Chechik 和 Cohen(ICALP 2019)提出的开放问题。
英文摘要:
In this article, we provide a unified and simplified approach to derandomize central results in the area of fault-tolerant graph algorithms. Given a graph $G$, a vertex pair $(s,t) \in V(G)\times V(G)$, and a set of edge faults $F \subseteq E(G)$, a replacement path $P(s,t,F)$ is an $s$-$t$ shortest path in $G \setminus F$. For integer parameters $L,f$, a replacement path covering (RPC) is a collection of subgraphs of $G$, denoted by $\textit{G}_{L,f}=\{G_1,\ldots, G_r \}$, such that for every set $F$ of at most $f$ faults (i.e., $|F|\le f$) and every replacement path $P(s,t,F)$ of at most $L$ edges, there exists a subgraph $G_i\in \textit{G}_{L,f}$ that contains all the edges of $P$ and does not contain any of the edges of $F$. The covering value of the RPC $\textit{G}_{L,f}$ is then defined to be the number of subgraphs in $\textit{G}_{L,f}$. We present efficient deterministic constructions of $(L,f)$-RPCs whose covering values almost match the randomized ones, for a wide range of parameters. Our time and value bounds improve considerably over the previous construction of Parter (DISC 2019). We also provide an almost matching lower bound for the value of these coverings. A key application of our above deterministic constructions is the derandomization of the algebraic construction of the distance sensitivity oracle by Weimann and Yuster (FOCS 2010). The preprocessing and query time of the our deterministic algorithm nearly match the randomized bounds. This resolves the open problem of Alon, Chechik and Cohen (ICALP 2019).
