We present the first $m\,\text{polylog}(n)$ work, $\text{polylog}(n)$ time algorithm in the PRAM model that computes $(1+\epsilon)$-approximate single-source shortest paths on weighted, undirected graphs. This improves upon the breakthrough…
Recently, Marcus et al. (Bioinformatics 2014) proposed to use a compressed de Bruijn graph to describe the relationship between the genomes of many individuals/strains of the same or closely related species. They devised an $O(n \log g)$…
We propose an algorithm with expected complexity of $\bigO(n\log n)$ arithmetic operations to solve a special shortest vector problem arising in computer-and-forward design, where $n$ is the dimension of the channel vector. This algorithm…
We first prove a one-to-one correspondence between finding Hamiltonian cycles in a cubic planar graphs and finding trees with specific properties in dual graphs. Using this information, we construct an exact algorithm for finding…
In this work we introduce the graph-theoretic notion of mendability: for each locally checkable graph problem we can define its mending radius, which captures the idea of how far one needs to modify a partial solution in order to "patch a…
A new Las Vegas algorithm is presented for the composition of two polynomials modulo a third one, over an arbitrary field. When the degrees of these polynomials are bounded by $n$, the algorithm uses $O(n^{1.43})$ field operations, breaking…
In this paper we study a family of algorithms, introduced by Chan [SODA 1999] and called LR-algorithms, for drawing ordered rooted binary trees. In particular, we are interested in constructing LR-drawings (that are drawings obtained via…
The paper proposes dynamic parallel algorithms for connectivity and bipartiteness of undirected graphs that require constant time and $O(n^{1/2+\epsilon})$ work on the CRCW PRAM model. The work of these algorithms almost matches the work of…
Recently we have developed a new method in graph theory based on the Regularity Lemma. The method is applied to find certain spanning subgraphs in dense graphs. The other main general tool of the method, beside the Regularity Lemma, is the…
A probabilistic version of the Weisfeiler-Leman algorithm for computing the coherent closure of a colored graph is suggested. The algorithm is Monte Carlo and runs in time $ O(n^{1+\omega}\log^2 n) $, where $ n $ is the number of vertices…
We study the Minimum Crossing Number problem: given an $n$-vertex graph $G$, the goal is to find a drawing of $G$ in the plane with minimum number of edge crossings. This is one of the central problems in topological graph theory, that has…
We give a parallel $O(\log(n))$-time algorithm on a CRCW PRAM to assign vertical and horizontal segments to the vertices of any planar bipartite graph $G$ in the following manner: i) Two segments cannot share an interior point ii) Two…
Arkin et al.~\cite{ArkinBCCJKMM17} recently introduced \textit{partitioned pairs} network optimization problems: given a metric-weighted graph on $n$ pairs of nodes, the task is to color one node from each pair red and the other blue, and…
Random graph matching refers to recovering the underlying vertex correspondence between two random graphs with correlated edges; a prominent example is when the two random graphs are given by Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi graphs $G(n,\frac{d}{n})$.…
We present $k^{O(k^2)} m$ time algorithms for various problems about decomposing a given undirected graph by edge cuts or vertex separators of size $<k$ into parts that are ``well-connected'' with respect to cuts or separators of size $<k$;…
The \emph{Product Structure Theorem} for planar graphs (Dujmovi\'c et al.\ \emph{JACM}, \textbf{67}(4):22) states that any planar graph is contained in the strong product of a planar $3$-tree, a path, and a $3$-cycle. We give a simple…
We show that on graphs with n vertices, the 2-dimensional Weisfeiler-Leman algorithm requires at most O(n^2/log(n)) iterations to reach stabilization. This in particular shows that the previously best, trivial upper bound of O(n^2) is…
A graph $G = (V,E)$ is a double-threshold graph if there exist a vertex-weight function $w \colon V \to \mathbb{R}$ and two real numbers $\mathtt{lb}, \mathtt{ub} \in \mathbb{R}$ such that $uv \in E$ if and only if $\mathtt{lb} \le…
The intersection graph of a collection of trapezoids with corner points lying on two parallel lines is called a trapezoid graph. These graphs and their generalizations were applied in various fields, including modeling channel routing…
We present a data structure that can maintain a simple planar graph under edge contractions in linear total time. The data structure supports adjacency queries and provides access to neighbor lists in $O(1)$ time. Moreover, it can report…
