We study the problem of sampling almost uniform proper $q$-colourings in $k$-uniform simple hypergraphs with maximum degree $\Delta$. For any $\delta > 0$, if $k \geq\frac{20(1+\delta)}{\delta}$ and $q \geq…
We show that given an $n$-vertex graph $G$ of diameter 3 we can decide if $G$ is $3$-colourable in time $2^{O(n^{2/3-\varepsilon})}$ for any $\varepsilon < 1/33$. This improves on the previous best algorithm of $2^{O((n\log n)^{2/3})}$ from…
Recently there emerge many distributed algorithms that aim at solving subgraph matching at scale. Existing algorithm-level comparisons failed to provide a systematic view to the pros and cons of each algorithm mainly due to the intertwining…
We show how to couple phase-oscillators on a graph so that collective dynamics "searches" for the coloring of that graph as it relaxes toward the dynamical equilibrium. This translates a combinatorial optimization problem (graph coloring)…
