Perfect $L_p$ sampling in a stream was introduced by Jayaram and Woodruff (FOCS 2018) as a streaming primitive which, given turnstile updates to a vector $x \in \{-\text{poly}(n), \ldots, \text{poly}(n)\}^n$, outputs an index $i^* \in \{1,…
Sampling edges from a graph in sublinear time is a fundamental problem and a powerful subroutine for designing sublinear-time algorithms. Suppose we have access to the vertices of the graph and know a constant-factor approximation to the…

We consider the problem of maintaining a $(1-\epsilon)$-approximation to the densest subgraph (DSG) in an undirected multigraph as it undergoes edge insertions and deletions (the fully dynamic setting). Sawlani and Wang [SW20] developed a…

The efficient estimation of frequency moments of a data stream in one-pass using limited space and time per item is one of the most fundamental problem in data stream processing. An especially important estimation is to find the number of…
The maximum coverage problem is to select $k$ sets from a collection of sets such that the cardinality of the union of the selected sets is maximized. We consider $(1-1/e-\epsilon)$-approximation algorithms for this NP-hard problem in three…
The traditional requirement for a randomized streaming algorithm is just {\em one-shot}, i.e., algorithm should be correct (within the stated $\eps$-error bound) at the end of the stream. In this paper, we study the {\em tracking} problem,…
