The problem of coloring the edges of an $n$-node graph of maximum degree $\Delta$ with $2\Delta - 1$ colors is one of the key symmetry breaking problems in the area of distributed graph algorithms. While there has been a lot of progress…

We study the design of fixed-parameter algorithms for problems already known to be solvable in polynomial time. The main motivation is to get more efficient algorithms for problems with unattractive polynomial running times. Here, we focus…

In this paper, we introduce a variant of spectral sparsification, called probabilistic $(\varepsilon,\delta)$-spectral sparsification. Roughly speaking, it preserves the cut value of any cut $(S,S^{c})$ with an $1\pm\varepsilon$…

We give an $n^{2+o(1)}$-time algorithm for finding $s$-$t$ min-cuts for all pairs of vertices $s$ and $t$ in a simple, undirected graph on $n$ vertices. We do so by constructing a Gomory-Hu tree (or cut equivalent tree) in the same running…

We give an algorithm that given a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges and an integer $k$, in time $O_k(n^{1+o(1)}) + O(m)$ either outputs a rank decomposition of $G$ of width at most $k$ or determines that the rankwidth of $G$ is…

A maximal matching $M$ that consists of independent edges is a subgraph of a simple and undirected graph $G$ for which $G-M$ forms an independent set. A graph $G$ is called equimatchable if all maximal matchings have the same number of…
