A 1-PLS of cost p implies a t-PLS of cost O(ceil(p/t)) up to log n factors in general graphs and O(ceil(p/t) + log n) in fixed minor-free graphs.
Computing GapMAJ∘fⁿ requires n·(I−O(1)) bits of information, making GapMAJ the third outer gadget with a strong composition theorem in two-player communication.
Improved (O(pw), Δ)-LDD for pathwidth-pw digraphs and O(tw log n) integrality gap for directed sparsest-cut LP on treewidth-tw graphs via refined quasipartition analysis.
Constant-factor LP-based approximation for Max Dist-2 Independent Set (and Min Dominating Set) in bounded radius-2 merge-width graphs, with the domination-to-2-independence ratio shown bounded and tight for radius-1.
Under ETH, approximating parameterized MLD and NCP within a fixed constant factor requires n^Omega(k) time via a direct reduction from Gap-MAXLIN hardness using cover families.
Additive εn²-approximation for graph edit distance on VC-dimension-d graphs in n^{O(d/ε²)} time, with extensions to quadratic assignment problems and a Weisfeiler-Leman dimension bound for robust graph isomorphism.
Controlled unitaries can be decontrolled into standard unitaries with random phase, showing they do not help beyond global phase information for a large class of quantum problems.

Are controlled unitaries helpful?
Controlled unitaries can be decontrolled into standard unitaries with random phase, showing they do not help beyond global phase information for a large class of quantum problems.
