  text: "Directed cell migration is a hallmark feature, present in almost all multi-cellular\r\norganisms.
    Despite its importance, basic questions regarding force transduction\r\nor directional
    sensing are still heavily investigated. Directed migration of cells\r\nguided
    by immobilized guidance cues - haptotaxis - occurs in key-processes,\r\nsuch as
    embryonic development and immunity (Middleton et al., 1997; Nguyen\r\net al.,
    2000; Thiery, 1984; Weber et al., 2013). Immobilized guidance cues\r\ncomprise
    adhesive ligands, such as collagen and fibronectin (Barczyk et al.,\r\n2009),
    or chemokines - the main guidance cues for migratory leukocytes\r\n(Middleton
    et al., 1997; Weber et al., 2013). While adhesive ligands serve as\r\nattachment
    sites guiding cell migration (Carter, 1965), chemokines instruct\r\nhaptotactic
    migration by inducing adhesion to adhesive ligands and directional\r\nguidance
    (Rot and Andrian, 2004; Schumann et al., 2010). Quantitative analysis\r\nof the
    cellular response to immobilized guidance cues requires in vitro assays\r\nthat
    foster cell migration, offer accurate control of the immobilized cues on a\r\nsubcellular
    scale and in the ideal case closely reproduce in vivo conditions. The\r\nexploration
    of haptotactic cell migration through design and employment of such\r\nassays
    represents the main focus of this work.\r\nDendritic cells (DCs) are leukocytes,
    which after encountering danger\r\nsignals such as pathogens in peripheral organs
    instruct naïve T-cells and\r\nconsequently the adaptive immune response in the
    lymph node (Mellman and\r\nSteinman, 2001). To reach the lymph node from the periphery,
    DCs follow\r\nhaptotactic gradients of the chemokine CCL21 towards lymphatic vessels\r\n(Weber
    et al., 2013). Questions about how DCs interpret haptotactic CCL21\r\ngradients
    have not yet been addressed. The main reason for this is the lack of\r\nan assay
    that offers diverse haptotactic environments, hence allowing the study\r\nof DC
    migration as a response to different signals of immobilized guidance cue.\r\nIn
    this work, we developed an in vitro assay that enables us to\r\nquantitatively
    assess DC haptotaxis, by combining precisely controllable\r\nchemokine photo-patterning
    with physically confining migration conditions. With this tool at hand, we studied
    the influence of CCL21 gradient properties and\r\nconcentration on DC haptotaxis.
    We found that haptotactic gradient sensing\r\ndepends on the absolute CCL21 concentration
    in combination with the local\r\nsteepness of the gradient. Our analysis suggests
    that the directionality of\r\nmigrating DCs is governed by the signal-to-noise
    ratio of CCL21 binding to its\r\nreceptor CCR7. Moreover, the haptotactic CCL21
    gradient formed in vivo\r\nprovides an optimal shape for DCs to recognize haptotactic
    guidance cue.\r\nBy reconstitution of the CCL21 gradient in vitro we were also
    able to\r\nstudy the influence of CCR7 signal termination on DC haptotaxis. To
    this end,\r\nwe used DCs lacking the G-protein coupled receptor kinase GRK6, which
    is\r\nresponsible for CCL21 induced CCR7 receptor phosphorylation and\r\ndesensitization
    (Zidar et al., 2009). We found that CCR7 desensitization by\r\nGRK6 is crucial
    for maintenance of haptotactic CCL21 gradient sensing in vitro\r\nand confirm
    those observations in vivo.\r\nIn the context of the organism, immobilized haptotactic
    guidance cues\r\noften coincide and compete with soluble chemotactic guidance
    cues. During\r\nwound healing, fibroblasts are exposed and influenced by adhesive
    cues and\r\nsoluble factors at the same time (Wu et al., 2012; Wynn, 2008). Similarly,\r\nmigrating
    DCs are exposed to both, soluble chemokines (CCL19 and truncated\r\nCCL21) inducing
    chemotactic behavior as well as the immobilized CCL21. To\r\nquantitatively assess
    these complex coinciding immobilized and soluble\r\nguidance cues, we implemented
    our chemokine photo-patterning technique in a\r\nmicrofluidic system allowing
    for chemotactic gradient generation. To validate\r\nthe assay, we observed DC
    migration in competing CCL19/CCL21\r\nenvironments.\r\nAdhesiveness guided haptotaxis
    has been studied intensively over the\r\nlast century. However, quantitative studies
    leading to conceptual models are\r\nlargely missing, again due to the lack of
    a precisely controllable in vitro assay. A\r\nrequirement for such an in vitro
    assay is that it must prevent any uncontrolled\r\ncell adhesion. This can be accomplished
    by stable passivation of the surface. In\r\naddition, controlled adhesion must
    be sustainable, quantifiable and dose\r\ndependent in order to create homogenous
    gradients. Therefore, we developed a novel covalent photo-patterning technique
    satisfying all these needs. In\r\ncombination with a sustainable poly-vinyl alcohol
    (PVA) surface coating we\r\nwere able to generate gradients of adhesive cue to
    direct cell migration. This\r\napproach allowed us to characterize the haptotactic
    migratory behavior of\r\nzebrafish keratocytes in vitro. Furthermore, defined
    patterns of adhesive cue\r\nallowed us to control for cell shape and growth on
    a subcellular scale."

  text: 'Faint Lyα emitters become increasingly rarer toward the reionization epoch
    (z ∼ 6–7). However, observations from a very large (∼5 deg2) Lyα narrow-band survey
    at z = 6.6 show that this is not the case for the most luminous emitters, capable
    of ionizing their own local bubbles. Here we present follow-up observations of
    the two most luminous Lyα candidates in the COSMOS field: “MASOSA” and “CR7.”
    We used X-SHOOTER, SINFONI, and FORS2 on the Very Large Telescope, and DEIMOS
    on Keck, to confirm both candidates beyond any doubt. We find redshifts of z =
    6.541 and z = 6.604 for “MASOSA” and “CR7,” respectively. MASOSA has a strong
    detection in Lyα with a line width of 386 ± 30 km s−1 (FWHM) and with very high
    EW0 (>200 Å), but undetected in the continuum, implying very low stellar mass
    and a likely young, metal-poor stellar population. “CR7,” with an observed Lyα
    luminosity of 1043.92±0.05 erg s−1 is the most luminous Lyα emitter ever found
    at z > 6 and is spatially extended (∼16 kpc). “CR7” reveals a narrow Lyα line
    with 266 ± 15 km s−1 FWHM, being detected in the near-infrared (NIR) (rest-frame
    UV; β = −2.3 ± 0.1) and in IRAC/Spitzer. We detect a narrow He II 1640 Å emission
    line (6σ, FWHM = 130 ± 30 km s−1 ) in CR7 which can explain the clear excess seen
    in the J-band photometry (EW0 ∼ 80 Å). We find no other emission lines from the
    UV to the NIR in our X-SHOOTER spectra (He II/O III] 1663 Å > 3 and He II/C III]
    1908 Å > 2.5). We conclude that CR7 is best explained by a combination of a PopIII-like
    population, which dominates the rest-frame UV and the nebular emission, and a
    more normal stellar population, which presumably dominates the mass. Hubble Space
    Telescope/WFC3 observations show that the light is indeed spatially separated
    between a very blue component, coincident with Lyα and He II emission, and two
    red components (∼5 kpc away), which dominate the mass. Our findings are consistent
    with theoretical predictions of a PopIII wave, with PopIII star formation migrating
    away from the original sites of star formation.'

  text: CR7 is the brightest z = 6.6 Ly α emitter (LAE) known to date, and spectroscopic
    follow-up by Sobral et al. suggests that CR7 might host Population (Pop) III stars.
    We examine this interpretation using cosmological hydrodynamical simulations.
    Several simulated galaxies show the same ‘Pop III wave’ pattern observed in CR7.
    However, to reproduce the extreme CR7 Ly α/He II1640 line luminosities (⁠Lα/HeII⁠)
    a top-heavy initial mass function and a massive ( ≳ 107 M⊙) Pop III burst with
    age ≲ 2 Myr are required. Assuming that the observed properties of Ly α and He II
    emission are typical for Pop III, we predict that in the COSMOS/UDS/SA22 fields,
    14 out of the 30 LAEs at z = 6.6 with Lα > 1043.3 erg s−1 should also host Pop
    III stars producing an observable LHeII≳1042.7ergs−1⁠. As an alternate explanation,
    we explore the possibility that CR7 is instead powered by accretion on to a direct
    collapse black hole. Our model predicts Lα, LHeII⁠, and X-ray luminosities that
    are in agreement with the observations. In any case, the observed properties of
    CR7 indicate that this galaxy is most likely powered by sources formed from pristine
    gas. We propose that further X-ray observations can distinguish between the two
    above scenarios.

  text: 'We present results from the largest contiguous narrow-band survey in the
    near-infrared. We have used the wide-field infrared camera/Canada–France–Hawaii
    Telescope and the lowOH2 filter (1.187 ± 0.005 μm) to survey ≈10 deg2 of contiguous
    extragalactic sky in the SA22 field. A total of ∼6000 candidate emission-line
    galaxies are found. We use deep ugrizJK data to obtain robust photometric redshifts.
    We combine our data with the High-redshift(Z) Emission Line Survey (HiZELS), explore
    spectroscopic surveys (VVDS, VIPERS) and obtain our own spectroscopic follow-up
    with KMOS, FMOS and MOSFIRE to derive large samples of high-redshift emission-line
    selected galaxies: 3471 Hα emitters at z = 0.8, 1343 [O III] + Hβ emitters at
    z = 1.4 and 572 [O II] emitters at z = 2.2. We probe comoving volumes of >106
    Mpc3 and find significant overdensities, including an 8.5σ (spectroscopically
    confirmed) overdensity of Hα emitters at z = 0.81. We derive Hα, [O III] + Hβ
    and [O II] luminosity functions at z = 0.8, 1.4, 2.2, respectively, and present
    implications for future surveys such as Euclid. Our uniquely large volumes/areas
    allow us to subdivide the samples in thousands of randomized combinations of areas
    and provide a robust empirical measurement of sample/cosmic variance. We show
    that surveys for star-forming/emission-line galaxies at a depth similar to ours
    can only overcome cosmic-variance (errors <10 per cent) if they are based on volumes
    >5 × 105 Mpc3; errors on L* and ϕ* due to sample (cosmic) variance on surveys
    probing ∼104 and ∼105 Mpc3 are typically very high: ∼300 and ∼40–60 per cent,
    respectively.'

  text: Using wide-field narrow-band surveys, we provide a new measurement of the
    z = 6.6 Lymanα emitter (LAE) luminosity function (LF), which constraints the bright
    end for the first time. We use a combination of archival narrow-band NB921 data
    in UDS and new NB921 measurements in SA22 and COSMOS/UltraVISTA, all observed
    with the Subaru telescope, with a total area of ∼5 deg2. We exclude lower redshift
    interlopers by using broad-band optical and near-infrared photometry and also
    exclude three supernovae with data split over multiple epochs. Combining the UDS
    and COSMOS samples, we find no evolution of the bright end of the Lyα LF between
    z = 5.7 and 6.6, which is supported by spectroscopic follow-up, and conclude that
    sources with Himiko-like luminosity are not as rare as previously thought, with
    number densities of ∼1.5 × 10−5 Mpc−3. Combined with our wide-field SA22 measurements,
    our results indicate a non-Schechter-like bright end of the LF at z = 6.6 and
    a different evolution of observed faint and bright LAEs, overcoming cosmic variance.
    This differential evolution is also seen in the spectroscopic follow-up of UV-selected
    galaxies and is now also confirmed for LAEs, and we argue that it may be an effect
    of reionization. Using a toy model, we show that such differential evolution of
    the LF is expected, since brighter sources are able to ionize their surroundings
    earlier, such that Lyα photons are able to escape. Our targets are excellent candidates
    for detailed follow-up studies and provide the possibility to give a unique view
    on the earliest stages in the formation of galaxies and reionization process.

  text: "We study multiple keyword sponsored search auctions with budgets. Each keyword
    has multiple ad slots with a click-through rate. The bidders have additive valuations,
    which are linear in the click-through rates, and budgets, which are restricting
    their overall payments. Additionally, the number of slots per keyword assigned
    to a bidder is bounded.\r\n\r\nWe show the following results: (1) We give the
    first mechanism for multiple keywords, where click-through rates differ among
    slots. Our mechanism is incentive compatible in expectation, individually rational
    in expectation, and Pareto optimal. (2) We study the combinatorial setting, where
    each bidder is only interested in a subset of the keywords. We give an incentive
    compatible, individually rational, Pareto-optimal, and deterministic mechanism
    for identical click-through rates. (3) We give an impossibility result for incentive
    compatible, individually rational, Pareto-optimal, and deterministic mechanisms
    for bidders with diminishing marginal valuations."

  text: We study individual rational, Pareto-optimal, and incentive compatible mechanisms
    for auctions with heterogeneous items and budget limits. We consider settings
    with multiunit demand and additive valuations. For single-dimensional valuations
    we prove a positive result for randomized mechanisms, and a negative result for
    deterministic mechanisms. While the positive result allows for private budgets,
    the negative result is for public budgets. For multidimensional valuations and
    public budgets we prove an impossibility result that applies to deterministic
    and randomized mechanisms. Taken together this shows the power of randomization
    in certain settings with heterogeneous items, but it also shows its limitations.

  text: Auctions are widely used on the Web. Applications range from sponsored search
    to platforms such as eBay. In these and in many other applications the auctions
    in use are single-/multi-item auctions with unit demand. The main drawback of
    standard mechanisms for this type of auctions, such as VCG and GSP, is the limited
    expressiveness that they offer to the bidders. The General Auction Mechanism (GAM)
    of Aggarwal et al. [2009] takes a first step toward addressing the problem of
    limited expressiveness by computing a bidder optimal, envy-free outcome for linear
    utility functions with identical slopes and a single discontinuity per bidder-item
    pair. We show that in many practical situations this does not suffice to adequately
    model the preferences of the bidders, and we overcome this problem by presenting
    the first mechanism for piecewise linear utility functions with nonidentical slopes
    and multiple discontinuities. Our mechanism runs in polynomial time. Like GAM
    it is incentive compatible for inputs that fulfill a certain nondegeneracy assumption,
    but our requirement is more general than the requirement of GAM. For discontinuous
    utility functions that are nondegenerate as well as for continuous utility functions
    the outcome of our mechanism is a competitive equilibrium. We also show how our
    mechanism can be used to compute approximately bidder optimal, envy-free outcomes
    for a general class of continuous utility functions via piecewise linear approximation.
    Finally, we prove hardness results for even more expressive settings.

  text: "Ad exchanges are an emerging platform for trading advertisement slots on
    the web with billions of dollars revenue per year. Every time a user visits a
    web page, the publisher of that web page can ask an ad exchange to auction off
    the ad slots on this page to determine which advertisements are shown at which
    price. Due to the high volume of traffic, ad networks typically act as mediators
    for individual advertisers at ad exchanges. If multiple advertisers in an ad network
    are interested in the ad slots of the same auction, the ad network might use a
    “local” auction to resell the obtained ad slots among its advertisers.\r\n\r\nIn
    this work we want to deepen the theoretical understanding of these new markets
    by analyzing them from the viewpoint of combinatorial auctions. Prior work studied
    mostly single-item auctions, while we allow the advertisers to express richer
    preferences over multiple items. We develop a game-theoretic model for the entanglement
    of the central auction at the ad exchange with the local auctions at the ad networks.
    We consider the incentives of all three involved parties and suggest a three-party
    competitive equilibrium, an extension of the Walrasian equilibrium that ensures
    envy-freeness for all participants. We show the existence of a three-party competitive
    equilibrium and a polynomial-time algorithm to find one for gross-substitute bidder
    valuations."

  text: "Combinatorial auctions (CA) are a well-studied area in algorithmic mechanism
    design. However, contrary to the standard model, empirical studies suggest that
    a bidder’s valuation often does not depend solely on the goods assigned to him.
    For instance, in adwords auctions an advertiser might not want his ads to be displayed
    next to his competitors’ ads. In this paper, we propose and analyze several natural
    graph-theoretic models that incorporate such negative externalities, in which
    bidders form a directed conflict graph with maximum out-degree Δ. We design algorithms
    and truthful mechanisms for social welfare maximization that attain approximation
    ratios depending on Δ.\r\n\r\nFor CA, our results are twofold: (1) A lottery that
    eliminates conflicts by discarding bidders/items independent of the bids. It allows
    to apply any truthful \U0001D6FC-approximation mechanism for conflict-free valuations
    and yields an \U0001D4AA(\U0001D6FCΔ)-approximation mechanism. (2) For fractionally
    sub-additive valuations, we design a rounding algorithm via a novel combination
    of a semi-definite program and a linear program, resulting in a cone program;
    the approximation ratio is \U0001D4AA((ΔloglogΔ)/logΔ). The ratios are almost
    optimal given existing hardness results.\r\n\r\nFor adwords auctions, we present
    several algorithms for the most relevant scenario when the number of items is
    small. In particular, we design a truthful mechanism with approximation ratio
    \U0001D45C(Δ) when the number of items is only logarithmic in the number of bidders."

  text: "Recently we presented the first algorithm for maintaining the set of nodes
    reachable from a source node in a directed graph that is modified by edge deletions
    with \U0001D45C(\U0001D45A\U0001D45B) total update time, where \U0001D45A is the
    number of edges and \U0001D45B is the number of nodes in the graph [Henzinger
    et al. STOC 2014]. The algorithm is a combination of several different algorithms,
    each for a different \U0001D45A vs. \U0001D45B trade-off. For the case of \U0001D45A=Θ(\U0001D45B1.5)
    the running time is \U0001D442(\U0001D45B2.47), just barely below \U0001D45A\U0001D45B=Θ(\U0001D45B2.5).
    In this paper we simplify the previous algorithm using new algorithmic ideas and
    achieve an improved running time of \U0001D442̃ (min(\U0001D45A7/6\U0001D45B2/3,\U0001D45A3/4\U0001D45B5/4+\U0001D45C(1),\U0001D45A2/3\U0001D45B4/3+\U0001D45C(1)+\U0001D45A3/7\U0001D45B12/7+\U0001D45C(1))).
    This gives, e.g., \U0001D442(\U0001D45B2.36) for the notorious case \U0001D45A=Θ(\U0001D45B1.5).
    We obtain the same upper bounds for the problem of maintaining the strongly connected
    components of a directed graph undergoing edge deletions. Our algorithms are correct
    with high probabililty against an oblivious adversary."

  text: "We present faster algorithms for computing the 2-edge and 2-vertex strongly
    connected components of a directed graph. While in undirected graphs the 2-edge
    and 2-vertex connected components can be found in linear time, in directed graphs
    with m edges and n vertices only rather simple O(m n)-time algorithms were known.
    We use a hierarchical sparsification technique to obtain algorithms that run in
    time \U0001D442(\U0001D45B2). For 2-edge strongly connected components our algorithm
    gives the first running time improvement in 20 years. Additionally we present
    an \U0001D442(\U0001D45A2/log\U0001D45B)-time algorithm for 2-edge strongly connected
    components, and thus improve over the O(m n) running time also when \U0001D45A=\U0001D442(\U0001D45B).
    Our approach extends to k-edge and k-vertex strongly connected components for
    any constant k with a running time of \U0001D442(\U0001D45B2log\U0001D45B) for
    k-edge-connectivity and \U0001D442(\U0001D45B3) for k-vertex-connectivity."

  text: "Ad exchanges are becoming an increasingly popular way to sell advertisement
    slots on the internet. An ad exchange is basically a spot market for ad impressions.
    A publisher who has already signed contracts reserving advertisement impressions
    on his pages can choose between assigning a new ad impression for a new page view
    to a contracted advertiser or to sell it at an ad exchange. This leads to an online
    revenue maximization problem for the publisher. Given a new impression to sell
    decide whether (a) to assign it to a contracted advertiser and if so to which
    one or (b) to sell it at the ad exchange and if so at which reserve price. We
    make no assumptions about the distribution of the advertiser valuations that participate
    in the ad exchange and show that there exists a simple primal-dual based online
    algorithm, whose lower bound for the revenue converges to \U0001D445\U0001D434\U0001D437\U0001D44B+\U0001D445\U0001D434(1−1/\U0001D452),
    where \U0001D445\U0001D434\U0001D437\U0001D44B is the revenue that the optimum
    algorithm achieves from the ad exchange and \U0001D445\U0001D434 is the revenue
    that the optimum algorithm achieves from the contracted advertisers."

  text: "Online social networks allow the collection of large amounts of data about
    the influence between users connected by a friendship-like relationship. When
    distributing items among agents forming a social network, this information allows
    us to exploit network externalities that each agent receives from his neighbors
    that get the same item. In this paper we consider Friends-of-Friends (2-hop) network
    externalities, i.e., externalities that not only depend on the neighbors that
    get the same item but also on neighbors of neighbors. For these externalities
    we study a setting where multiple different items are assigned to unit-demand
    agents. Specifically, we study the problem of welfare maximization under different
    types of externality functions. Let n be the number of agents and m be the number
    of items. Our contributions are the following: (1) We show that welfare maximization
    is APX-hard; we show that even for step functions with 2-hop (and also with 1-hop)
    externalities it is NP-hard to approximate social welfare better than (1-1/e).
    (2) On the positive side we present (i) an O(sqrt n)-approximation algorithm for
    general concave externality functions,\r\n(ii) an O(\\log m)-approximation algorithm
    for linear externality functions, and (iii) an (1-1/e)\\frac{1}{6}-approximation
    algorithm for 2-hop step function externalities. We also improve the result from
    [6] for 1-hop step function externalities by giving a (1-1/e)/2-approximation
    algorithm."

  text: "Phylogenetic diversity (PD) is a measure of biodiversity based on the evolutionary
    history of species. Here, we discuss several optimization problems related to
    the use of PD, and the more general measure split diversity (SD), in conservation
    prioritization.\r\nDepending on the conservation goal and the information available
    about species, one can construct optimization routines that incorporate various
    conservation constraints. We demonstrate how this information can be used to select
    sets of species for conservation action. Specifically, we discuss the use of species'
    geographic distributions, the choice of candidates under economic pressure, and
    the use of predator–prey interactions between the species in a community to define
    viability constraints.\r\nDespite such optimization problems falling into the
    area of NP hard problems, it is possible to solve them in a reasonable amount
    of time using integer programming. We apply integer linear programming to a variety
    of models for conservation prioritization that incorporate the SD measure.\r\nWe
    exemplarily show the results for two data sets: the Cape region of South Africa
    and a Caribbean coral reef community. Finally, we provide user-friendly software
    at http://www.cibiv.at/software/pda."

  text: "Consider the following Online Boolean Matrix-Vector Multiplication problem:
    We are given an n x n matrix M and will receive n column-vectors of size n, denoted
    by v1, ..., vn, one by one. After seeing each vector vi, we have to output the
    product Mvi before we can see the next vector. A naive algorithm can solve this
    problem using O(n3) time in total, and its running time can be slightly improved
    to O(n3/log2 n) [Williams SODA'07]. We show that a conjecture that there is no
    truly subcubic (O(n3-ε)) time algorithm for this problem can be used to exhibit
    the underlying polynomial time hardness shared by many dynamic problems. For a
    number of problems, such as subgraph connectivity, Pagh's problem, d-failure connectivity,
    decremental single-source shortest paths, and decremental transitive closure,
    this conjecture implies tight hardness results. Thus, proving or disproving this
    conjecture will be very interesting as it will either imply several tight unconditional
    lower bounds or break through a common barrier that blocks progress with these
    problems. This conjecture might also be considered as strong evidence against
    any further improvement for these problems since refuting it will imply a major
    breakthrough for combinatorial Boolean matrix multiplication and other long-standing
    problems if the term \"combinatorial algorithms\" is interpreted as \"Strassen-like
    algorithms\" [Ballard et al. SPAA'11].\r\n\r\nThe conjecture also leads to hardness
    results for problems that were previously based on diverse problems and conjectures
    -- such as 3SUM, combinatorial Boolean matrix multiplication, triangle detection,
    and multiphase -- thus providing a uniform way to prove polynomial hardness results
    for dynamic algorithms; some of the new proofs are also simpler or even become
    trivial. The conjecture also leads to stronger and new, non-trivial, hardness
    results, e.g., for the fully-dynamic densest subgraph and diameter problems."

  text: "While in many graph mining applications it is crucial to handle a stream
    of updates efficiently in terms of both time and space, not much was known about
    achieving such type of algorithm. In this paper we study this issue for a problem
    which lies at the core of many graph mining applications called densest subgraph
    problem. We develop an algorithm that achieves time- and space-efficiency for
    this problem simultaneously. It is one of the first of its kind for graph problems
    to the best of our knowledge.\r\n\r\nGiven an input graph, the densest subgraph
    is the subgraph that maximizes the ratio between the number of edges and the number
    of nodes. For any ε>0, our algorithm can, with high probability, maintain a (4+ε)-approximate
    solution under edge insertions and deletions using ~O(n) space and ~O(1) amortized
    time per update; here, $n$ is the number of nodes in the graph and ~O hides the
    O(polylog_{1+ε} n) term. The approximation ratio can be improved to (2+ε) with
    more time. It can be extended to a (2+ε)-approximation sublinear-time algorithm
    and a distributed-streaming algorithm. Our algorithm is the first streaming algorithm
    that can maintain the densest subgraph in one pass. Prior to this, no algorithm
    could do so even in the special case of an incremental stream and even when there
    is no time restriction. The previously best algorithm in this setting required
    O(log n) passes [BahmaniKV12]. The space required by our algorithm is tight up
    to a polylogarithmic factor."

  text: We consider auctions of indivisible items to unit-demand bidders with budgets.
    This setting was suggested as an expressive model for single sponsored search
    auctions. Prior work presented mechanisms that compute bidder-optimal outcomes
    and are truthful for a restricted set of inputs, i.e., inputs in so-called general
    position. This condition is easily violated. We provide the first mechanism that
    is truthful in expectation for all inputs and achieves for each bidder no worse
    utility than the bidder-optimal outcome. Additionally we give a complete characterization
    for which inputs mechanisms that compute bidder-optimal outcomes are truthful.
