We show an $\widetilde{O}(m^{1.5} \epsilon^{-1})$ time algorithm that on a graph with $m$ edges and $n$ vertices outputs its spanning tree count up to a multiplicative $(1+\epsilon)$ factor with high probability, improving on the previous…
The main goal in distributed symmetry-breaking is to understand the locality of problems; i.e., the radius of the neighborhood that a node needs to explore in order to arrive at its part of a global solution. In this work, we study the…
Graph clustering has many important applications in computing, but due to the increasing sizes of graphs, even traditionally fast clustering methods can be computationally expensive for real-world graphs of interest. Scalability problems…
