A General Framework for Dynamic Consistent Submodular Maximization

ArXi:2606.04946v1 Announce Type: cross Consistency is an important property in dynamic submodular maximization and entails maintaining a near-optimal solution at all times, making only a small number of adjustments to the solution in each step. Prior work has explored this question for the insertion-only case, where the algorithm faces a stream of $n$ insertions, and has established lower and upper bounds for the cardinality-constrained version of the problem. We consider this question in the fully dynamic setting, where the stream of operations may contain both insertions and deletions.
