Deterministic Monotone Min-Plus Product and Convolution

arXiv:2605.07150v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The Monotone Min-Plus Product problem is a useful primitive that has seen many algorithmic applications over the past decade. In this problem, we are given two $n\times n$ integer matrices $A$ and $B$, where each row of $B$ is a monotone non-decreasing sequence of integers from $\{1,\dots,n\}$, and the goal is to compute their Min-Plus product, defined as the $n\times n$ matrix $C$ with $C_{i,j} = \min_{k}\{A_{i,k} + B_{k,j}\}$. The fastest...
