Removing additive structure in 3sum-based reductions

C Jin, Y Xu - Proceedings of the 55th Annual ACM Symposium on …, 2023 - dl.acm.org
Our work explores the hardness of 3SUM instances without certain additive structures, and
its applications. As our main technical result, we show that solving 3SUM on a size-n integer …

SETH-based lower bounds for subset sum and bicriteria path

A Abboud, K Bringmann, D Hermelin… - ACM Transactions on …, 2022 - dl.acm.org
Subset Sumand k-SAT are two of the most extensively studied problems in computer
science, and conjectures about their hardness are among the cornerstones of fine-grained …

On near-linear-time algorithms for dense subset sum

K Bringmann, P Wellnitz - Proceedings of the 2021 ACM-SIAM Symposium on …, 2021 - SIAM
In the Subset Sum problem we are given a set of n positive integers X and a target t and are
asked whether some subset of X sums to t. Natural parameters for this problem that have …

A subquadratic approximation scheme for partition

M Mucha, K Węgrzycki, M Włodarczyk - … of the Thirtieth Annual ACM-SIAM …, 2019 - SIAM
The subject of this paper is the time complexity of approximating Knapsack, Subset Sum,
Partition, and some other related problems. The main result is an Õ (n+ 1/ε 5/3) time …

Top-𝑘-convolution and the quest for near-linear output-sensitive subset sum

K Bringmann, V Nakos - Proceedings of the 52nd Annual ACM SIGACT …, 2020 - dl.acm.org
In the classical SubsetSum problem we are given a set X and a target t, and the task is to
decide whether there exists a subset of X which sums to t. A recent line of research has …

Fast low-space algorithms for subset sum

C Jin, N Vyas, R Williams - Proceedings of the 2021 ACM-SIAM Symposium …, 2021 - SIAM
We consider the canonical Subset Sum problem: given a list of positive integers a 1,…, an
and a target integer t with t> ai for all i, determine if there is an S⊆[n] such that Σ i∊ S ai= t …

Low Weight Discrete Logarithm and Subset Sum in with Polynomial Memory

A Esser, A May - Annual International Conference on the Theory and …, 2020 - Springer
We propose two heuristic polynomial memory collision finding algorithms for the low
Hamming weight discrete logarithm problem in any abelian group G. The first one is a direct …

Truly Low-Space Element Distinctness and Subset Sum via Pseudorandom Hash Functions∗

L Chen, C Jin, RR Williams, H Wu - Proceedings of the 2022 Annual ACM …, 2022 - SIAM
We consider low-space algorithms for the classic Element Distinctness problem: given an
array of n input integers with O (log n) bit-length, decide whether or not all elements are …

Equal-subset-sum faster than the meet-in-the-middle

M Mucha, J Nederlof, J Pawlewicz… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2019 - arxiv.org
In the Equal-Subset-Sum problem, we are given a set $ S $ of $ n $ integers and the
problem is to decide if there exist two disjoint nonempty subsets $ A, B\subseteq S $, whose …

Improved low-memory subset sum and LPN algorithms via multiple collisions

C Delaplace, A Esser, A May - IMA International Conference on …, 2019 - Springer
For enabling post-quantum cryptanalytic experiments on a meaningful scale, there is a
strong need for low-memory algorithms. We show that the combination of techniques from …
