Semirandom Planted Clique and the Restricted Isometry Property
Semirandom Planted Clique and the Restricted Isometry Property
We give a simple, greedy $O(n^{\omega+0.5})=O(n^{2.872})$-time algorithm to list-decode planted cliques in a semirandom model introduced in [CSV17] (following [FK01]) that succeeds whenever the size of the planted clique is $k\geq O(\sqrt{n} \log^2 n)$. In the model, the edges touching the vertices in the planted $k$-clique are drawn independently with …
