We present a randomized algorithm that computes a constant approximation of a graph's arboricity, using $\tilde{O}(n/\lambda)$ queries to adjacency lists and in the same time bound. Here, $n$ and $\lambda$ denote the number of nodes and the…

We analyze several versions of Jacobi's method for the symmetric eigenvalue problem. Our goal is to reduce the asymptotic cost of the algorithm as much as possible, as measured by the number of arithmetic operations performed and associated…
