Streaming Verification of Graph Properties
Streaming interactive proofs (SIPs) are a framework for outsourced
computation. A computationally limited streaming client (the verifier) hands
over a large data set to an untrusted server (the prover) in the cloud and the
two parties run a protocol to confirm the correctness of result with high
probability. SIPs are particularly interesting for problems that are hard to
solve (or even approximate) well in a streaming setting. The most notable of
these problems is finding maximum matchings, which has received intense
interest in recent years but has strong lower bounds even for constant factor
approximations.
In this paper, we present efficient streaming interactive proofs that can
verify maximum matchings exactly. Our results cover all flavors of matchings
(bipartite/non-bipartite and weighted). In addition, we also present streaming
verifiers for approximate metric TSP. In particular, these are the first
efficient results for weighted matchings and for metric TSP in any streaming
verification model.Comment: 26 pages, 2 figure, 1 tabl
