This paper studies reduced-order modeling of dynamic networks with strongly connected topology. Given a graph clustering of an original complex network, we construct a quotient graph with less number of vertices, where the edge weights are…
In this paper we study graph problems in dynamic streaming model, where the input is defined by a sequence of edge insertions and deletions. As many natural problems require $\Omega(n)$ space, where $n$ is the number of vertices, existing…
In this paper, we present an improved algorithm for the All Pairs Non-decreasing Paths (APNP) problem on weighted simple digraphs, which has running time $\tilde{O}(n^{\frac{3 + \omega}{2}}) = \tilde{O}(n^{2.686})$. Here $n$ is the number…
Low Diameter Decompositions (LDDs) are invaluable tools in the design of combinatorial graph algorithms. While historically they have been applied mainly to undirected graphs, in the recent breakthrough for the negative-length Single Source…
We describe approximation algorithms in Linial's classic LOCAL model of distributed computing to find maximum-weight matchings in a hypergraph of rank $r$. Our main result is a deterministic algorithm to generate a matching which is an…
The use of graph neural networks has produced significant advances in point cloud problems, such as those found in high energy physics. The question of how to produce a graph structure in these problems is usually treated as a matter of…
In the k-Apex problem the task is to find at most k vertices whose deletion makes the given graph planar. The graphs for which there exists a solution form a minor closed class of graphs, hence by the deep results of Robertson and Seymour,…
We study fundamental graph parameters such as the Diameter and Radius in directed graphs, when distances are measured using a somewhat unorthodox but natural measure: the distance between $u$ and $v$ is the minimum of the shortest path…
There is a trivial $O(\frac{n^3}{T})$ time algorithm for approximate triangle counting where $T$ is the number of triangles in the graph and $n$ the number of vertices. At the same time, one may count triangles exactly using fast matrix…
We give an algorithm to find a minimum cut in an edge-weighted directed graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges in $\tilde O(n\cdot \max(m^{2/3}, n))$ time. This improves on the 30 year old bound of $\tilde O(nm)$ obtained by Hao and Orlin…
We demonstrate optimization of optical metasurfaces over $10^5$--$10^6$ degrees of freedom in two and three dimensions, 100--1000+ wavelengths ($\lambda$) in diameter, with 100+ parameters per $\lambda^2$. In particular, we show how…
Given a graph $G=(V,E)$ with costs on its edges, the minimum-cost edge cover problem consists of finding a subset of $E$ covering all vertices in $V$ at minimum cost. If $G$ is bipartite, this problem can be solved in time $O(|V|^3)$ via a…
We design an $O(n^3)$ algorithm to find a minimum weighted coloring of a ($P_5, \bar{P}_5$)-free graph. Furthermore, the same technique can be used to solve the same problem for several classes of graphs, defined by forbidden induced…
We prove essentially tight lower bounds, conditionally to the Exponential Time Hypothesis, for two fundamental but seemingly very different cutting problems on surface-embedded graphs: the Shortest Cut Graph problem and the Multiway Cut…
We give the first almost-linear time algorithm for computing the \emph{maximal $k$-edge-connected subgraphs} of an undirected unweighted graph for any constant $k$. More specifically, given an $n$-vertex $m$-edge graph $G=(V,E)$ and a…
In the classic Minimum Bisection problem we are given as input a graph $G$ and an integer $k$. The task is to determine whether there is a partition of $V(G)$ into two parts $A$ and $B$ such that $||A|-|B|| \leq 1$ and there are at most $k$…
We show how to find a Hamiltonian cycle in a graph of degree at most three with n vertices, in time O(2^{n/3}) ~= 1.260^n and linear space. Our algorithm can find the minimum weight Hamiltonian cycle (traveling salesman problem), in the…
We give improved algorithms for maintaining edge-orientations of a fully-dynamic graph, such that the out-degree of each vertex is bounded. On one hand, we show how to orient the edges such that the out-degree of each vertex is proportional…
In most of the shortest path problems like vehicle routing problems and network routing problems, we only need an efficient path between two points source and destination, and it is not necessary to calculate the shortest path from source…
