ReducedCBT and SuperCBT, Two New and Improved Complete Binary Tree Structures

Abstract

Between the leaves and the nodes of a complete binary tree, a separate parent-child-sister hierarchy is employed independent of the parent-child-sister hierarchy used for the rest of the tree. Two different versions of such a local hierarchy are introduced. The result of the first proposed hierarchy is a faster and smaller footprint, while the second one provides the size variation functionality without a significant computational overhead. This novel approach brings considerable memory gains and performance boosts to the complete binary tree based algorithms.

Path Enumeration by Position-Visit Counts in Recombining Trinomial Trees

Recombining trinomial trees are a workhorse for modeling discrete-event systems in option pricing, logistics, and feedback control. Because each node stores a state-dependent quantity, a depth-$D$ tree contains $3^D$ raw trajectories, making exhaustive enumeration rapidly infeasible. However, when each node's value depends only on its position, a raw trajectory's aggregate is determined by its position-visit counts. We call these count vectors cardinality tuples and decompose the admissible tuples into weak-composition mass layers. Leveraging these structures, we introduce a mass-shifting enumeration algorithm that slides integer ``masses'' through cardinality tuples to generate exactly one representative of each path-equivalence class, while the accompanying weak-composition bijections yield exact counting formulas for the generated families. This suppresses redundant raw-path orderings a priori rather than enumerating and deduplicating them afterward. For the full-tuple implementation, we prove an output-sensitive running-time bound at each fixed endpoint, together with a uniform worst-case upper bound $\mathscr{O}(D2^D)$ and an exact worst-case exponential growth base of $2$, compared with base $3$ for exhaustive raw-path enumeration. Thus the construction achieves a provable exponential reduction in the enumeration space, up to polynomial factors. The same framework also recovers the information compressed by the equivalence classes: we derive an exact degeneracy formula for the number of raw paths represented by every cardinality tuple. We further prove that the nonnegative return specialization is exactly the classical Motzkin family, recover its recursive and generating-function structure and the Dyck specialization, and derive a multivariate occupation-profile $J$-fraction whose coefficients recover the corresponding cardinality-tuple degeneracies.

The Longest Common Bitonic Subsequence: Match-Sensitive Algorithms and Conditional Hardness

The longest common bitonic subsequence problem asks for a longest common subsequence of two ordered sequences whose values strictly increase and then strictly decrease; either phase may be empty. We formulate the problem through increasing and decreasing endpoint values at matching position pairs. This gives a constructive quadratic baseline and a matchsensitive algorithm based on two standard dominance-maximum passes. Its time is the sum of an input-sorting term and the number of matches times a squared logarithmic factor. We state the endpoint interface that permits reuse of increasing subsequence algorithms, and distinguish this specialization from new range searching machinery. A linear-size padding reduction transfers the conditional strongly subquadratic lower bound for longest common increasing subsequence to the bitonic problem. Reproducible implementations, exhaustive small-instance checks, and newly measured synthetic experiments document correctness and the practical tradeoff between sparse and dense processing.

Polynomial Time Algorithms for the Kadison-Singer Problem

Marcus, Spielman, and Srivastava [MSS15] established the existence of Kadison--Singer partitions. We provide polynomial-time algorithms for the Kadison--Singer problem. For Hermitian matrices $A_1,\ldots,A_m\in\mathbb C^{n\times n}$ of rank at most one, we give two algorithms that find signs $σ\in\{\pm1\}^m$ satisfying $\|\sum_i σ_iA_i\|\le C\|\sum_i A_i^2\|^{1/2}$. The deterministic algorithm achieves $C=3.3443$ using $\widetilde O(mn^2+n^{4.75})$ arithmetic operations. The randomized algorithm achieves $C=4.8628$ using $\widetilde O(mn^2+n^{3.58})$ arithmetic operations in expectation. For vectors satisfying $\sum_i a_ia_i^*=I$ and $\|a_i\|^2\leα$, the algorithms yield partitions $[m]=I_1\cup I_2$ satisfying $\|\sum_{i\in I_j}a_ia_i^*-I/2\|\le (C/2)\sqrtα$ for $j=1,2$.
