We show that, for every $k\geq 2$, $C_{2k}$-freeness can be decided in $O(n^{1-1/k})$ rounds in the Broadcast CONGEST model, by a deterministic algorithm. This (deterministic) round-complexity is optimal for $k=2$ up to logarithmic factors…
We provide a fast distributed algorithm for detecting $h$-cycles in the \textsf{Congested Clique} model, whose running time decreases as the number of $h$-cycles in the graph increases. In undirected graphs, constant-round algorithms are…
The distributed subgraph detection asks, for a fixed graph $H$, whether the $n$-node input graph contains $H$ as a subgraph or not. In the standard CONGEST model of distributed computing, the complexity of clique/cycle detection and listing…

We consider the problem of distributed corruption detection in networks. In this model, each vertex of a directed graph is either truthful or corrupt. Each vertex reports the type (truthful or corrupt) of each of its outneighbors. If it is…
