We consider the {em vector partition problem}, where $n$ agents, each with a $d$-dimensional attribute vector, are to be partitioned into $p$ parts so as to minimize cost which is a given function on the sums of attribute vectors in each part. The problem has applications in a variety of areas including clustering, logistics and health care. We consider the complexity and parameterized complexity of the problem under various assumptions on the natural parameters $p,d,a,t$ of the problem where $a$ is the maximum absolute value of any attribute and $t$ is the number of agent types, and raise some of the many remaining open problems.

We show that throughout the satisfiable phase the normalised number of satisfying assignments of a random $2$-SAT formula converges in probability to an expression predicted by the cavity method from statistical physics. The proof is based on showing
that the Belief Propagation algorithm renders the correct marginal probability that a variable is set to `true under a uniformly random satisfying assignment.
We investigate the parameterized complexity of the following edge coloring problem motivated by the problem of channel assignment in wireless networks. For an integer q>1 and a graph G, the goal is to find a coloring of the edges of G with the maximu
m number of colors such that every vertex of the graph sees at most q colors. This problem is NP-hard for q>1, and has been well-studied from the point of view of approximation. Our main focus is the case when q=2, which is already theoretically intricate and practically relevant. We show fixed-parameter tractable algorithms for both the standard and the dual parameter, and for the latter problem, the result is based on a linear vertex kernel.
Grimmett and McDiarmid suggested a simple heuristic for finding stable sets in random graphs. They showed that the heuristic finds a stable set of size $simlog_2 n$ (with high probability) on a $G(n, 1/2)$ random graph. We determine the asymptotic di
stribution of the size of the stable set found by the algorithm.
We establish a polynomial-time approximation algorithm for partition functions of quantum spin models at high temperature. Our algorithm is based on the quantum cluster expansion of Netov{c}ny and Redig and the cluster expansion approach to designing
algorithms due to Helmuth, Perkins, and Regts. Similar results have previously been obtained by related methods, and our main contribution is a simple and slightly sharper analysis for the case of pairwise interactions on bounded-degree graphs.
In the Categorical Clustering problem, we are given a set of vectors (matrix) A={a_1,ldots,a_n} over Sigma^m, where Sigma is a finite alphabet, and integers k and B. The task is to partition A into k clusters such that the median objective of the clu
stering in the Hamming norm is at most B. That is, we seek a partition {I_1,ldots,I_k} of {1,ldots,n} and vectors c_1,ldots,c_kinSigma^m such that sum_{i=1}^ksum_{jin I_i}d_h(c_i,a_j)leq B, where d_H(a,b) is the Hamming distance between vectors a and b. Fomin, Golovach, and Panolan [ICALP 2018] proved that the problem is fixed-parameter tractable (for binary case Sigma={0,1}) by giving an algorithm that solves the problem in time 2^{O(Blog B)} (mn)^{O(1)}. We extend this algorithmic result to a popular capacitated clustering model, where in addition the sizes of the clusters should satisfy certain constraints. More precisely, in Capacitated Clustering, in addition, we are given two non-negative integers p and q, and seek a clustering with pleq |I_i|leq q for all iin{1,ldots,k}. Our main theorem is that Capacitated Clustering is solvable in time 2^{O(Blog B)}|Sigma|^B(mn)^{O(1)}. The theorem not only extends the previous algorithmic results to a significantly more general model, it also implies algorithms for several other variants of Categorical Clustering with constraints on cluster sizes.
