AI 中文摘要

计算欧几里得空间中点集\(P\)的最小权重完美匹配是一个经典几何优化问题。本文考虑动态情形,即点对可添加或从\(P\)中移除。重点是在不频繁改变解的情况下维持近似最优解。具体关注\(k -\)稳定算法,每次更新\(P\)后匹配中至多改变\(k\)条边。研究了\(\mathbb{R}^1\)中点集算法稳定性与维持解的近似比之间的权衡。首先给出一个\(O(\sqrt{n})\)稳定且维持\(2 -\)近似的算法,并证明其在所有亚线性稳定算法中最优。其次证明任何\(o(\log n)\)稳定算法具有无界近似比。下界在仅插入情形也成立,算法适用于全动态情形,且下界对问题的二分变体也成立。

英文摘要

Computing a minimum-weight perfect matching for a point set $P$ in Euclidean space is a classic geometric optimization problem. We consider the problem in a dynamic setting, where pairs of points may be added to or removed from the set $P$. Our focus is on maintaining an approximately optimal solution without making too many changes to the solution. More precisely, we are interested in $k$-stable algorithms, which change at most $k$ edges in the matching after each update to the set $P$. In other words, we consider an online setting (with insertions and deletions) with bounded recourse. We study trade-offs between the stability of the algorithm and the approximation ratio of the maintained solution for point sets in $\mathbb{R}^1$. First, we present an $O(\sqrt{n})$-stable algorithm that maintains a $2$-approximation, which we show to be optimal among all algorithms with sublinear stability. Second, we prove that any $o(\log n)$-stable algorithm has unbounded approximation ratio. Our lower bounds hold even in the insertion-only case, while our algorithm works in the fully dynamic case. Moreover, our lower bounds also hold for the bipartite variant of the problem.
