Four-Dimensional Dominance Range Reporting in Linear Space
(2003.06742)Abstract
In this paper we study the four-dimensional dominance range reporting problem and present data structures with linear or almost-linear space usage. Our results can be also used to answer four-dimensional queries that are bounded on five sides. The first data structure presented in this paper uses linear space and answers queries in $O(\log{1+\varepsilon}n + k\log{\varepsilon} n)$ time, where $k$ is the number of reported points, $n$ is the number of points in the data structure, and $\varepsilon$ is an arbitrarily small positive constant. Our second data structure uses $O(n \log{\varepsilon} n)$ space and answers queries in $O(\log n+k)$ time. These are the first data structures for this problem that use linear (resp. $O(n\log{\varepsilon} n)$) space and answer queries in poly-logarithmic time. For comparison the fastest previously known linear-space or $O(n\log{\varepsilon} n)$-space data structure supports queries in $O(n{\varepsilon} + k)$ time (Bentley and Mauer, 1980). Our results can be generalized to $d\ge 4$ dimensions. For example, we can answer $d$-dimensional dominance range reporting queries in $O(\log\log n (\log n/\log\log n){d-3} + k)$ time using $O(n\log{d-4+\varepsilon}n)$ space. Compared to the fastest previously known result (Chan, 2013), our data structure reduces the space usage by $O(\log n)$ without increasing the query time.
