For online matching with the line metric, we present a lower bound of $Omega(log n)$ on the approximation ratio of any online (possibly randomized) algorithm. This beats the previous best lower bound of $Omega(sqrt{log n})$ and matches the known upper bound of $O(log n)$.
Given two strings $S$ and $P$, the Episode Matching problem is to compute the length of the shortest substring of $S$ that contains $P$ as a subsequence. The best known upper bound for this problem is $tilde O(nm)$ by Das et al. (1997), where $n,m$ a
In this paper, we show a connection between a certain online low-congestion routing problem and an online prediction of graph labeling. More specifically, we prove that if there exists a routing scheme that guarantees a congestion of $alpha$ on any e
We study an online hypergraph matching problem with delays, motivated by ridesharing applications. In this model, users enter a marketplace sequentially, and are willing to wait up to $d$ timesteps to be matched, after which they will leave the syste
This paper considers the online machine minimization problem, a basic real time scheduling problem. The setting for this problem consists of n jobs that arrive over time, where each job has a deadline by which it must be completed. The goal is to des
We prove a lower bound on the space complexity of two-pass semi-streaming algorithms that approximate the maximum matching problem. The lower bound is parameterized by the density of Ruzsa-Szemeredi graphs: * Any two-pass semi-streaming algorithm f
