Distortion lower bounds for line embeddings
2008
Information Processing Letters
In this paper, we show how we can derive lower bounds and also compute the exact distortion for the line embeddings of some special metrics, especially trees and graphs with certain structure. ...
Using linear programming to formulate a simpler version of the problem gives an interesting intuition and direction concerning the computation of general lower bounds for distortion into the line. ...
The authors would like to thank Aris Anagnostopoulos and Eli Upfal for their useful feedback at the early stages of this work. ...

Lower Bounds for Embedding into Distributions over Excluded Minor Graph Families
[chapter]
2004
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
We show that this same lower bound holds for embeddings into distributions over any minor excluded family. ...
It is also known that this bound is tight since there are expander graphs which cannot be embedded into distributions over trees with better than Ω(log n) distortion. ...
We would also like to thank Elias Koutsoupias for valuable discussions, and Adam Meyerson and Shailesh Vaya for helpful comments on previous drafts. ...

On the impossibility of dimension reduction in l1
2005
Journal of the ACM
We show strong lower bounds for general dimension reduction in 1 . We give an explicit family of n points in 1 such that any embedding with distortion δ requires n Ω(1/δ 2 ) dimensions. ...
Further, embedding the points into 1 with 1 + ε distortion requires n 1 2 −O(ε log( 1 ε )) dimensions. Our proof establishes this lower bound for shortest path metrics of series-parallel graphs. ...
How can one prove lower bounds on the stretch for arbitrary (i.e. nonlinear) line embeddings? ...

Near Linear Lower Bound for Dimension Reduction in L1
2011
2011 IEEE 52nd Annual Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science
In this work, we show the first near linear lower bounds for dimension reduction in 1. In particular, we show that 1 + distortion requires at least n 1−O(1/ log(1/ )) dimensions. ...
In sharp contrast, there is a significant gap between upper and lower bounds for dimension reduction in 1. A recent result shows that distortion 1 + can be achieved with n/ 2 dimensions. ...
This gives our main result showing a near linear lower bound for 1 + distortion embeddings of 1 . ...

Our results about these metrics show that the local density of a graph -an a priori reasonable lower bound on the optimum distortion -might in fact be arbitrarily smaller than the true optimum, even for ...

Online Embedding of Metrics

We establish some upper and lower bounds on the distortion of such embedding, and pose some challenging open questions. ...
