Removing additive structure in 3sum-based reductions
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 …

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
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 …

Fast low-space algorithms for subset sum
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 …

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