We consider the problem of finding a minimum cut of a weighted graph presented as a single-pass stream. While graph sparsification in streams has been intensively studied, the specific application of finding minimum cuts in streams is less…
We present a data stream algorithm for estimating the size of the maximum matching of a low arboricity graph. Recall that a graph has arboricity $\alpha$ if its edges can be partitioned into at most $\alpha$ forests and that a planar graph…

We consider the maximum matching problem in the semi-streaming model formalized by Feigenbaum, Kannan, McGregor, Suri, and Zhang that is inspired by giant graphs of today. As our main result, we give a two-pass $(1/2 + 1/16)$-approximation…

We study the problem of graph and hypergraph sparsification in insertion-only data streams. The input is a hypergraph $H=(V, E, w)$ with $n$ nodes, $m$ hyperedges, and rank $r$, and the goal is to compute a hypergraph $\widehat{H}$ that…

We study learning-augmented streaming algorithms for estimating the value of MAX-CUT in a graph. In the classical streaming model, while a $1/2$-approximation for estimating the value of MAX-CUT can be trivially achieved with $O(1)$ words…
Counting the number of triangles in a graph has many important applications in network analysis. Several frequently computed metrics like the clustering coefficient and the transitivity ratio need to count the number of triangles in the…
There has been a recent explosion in the size of stored data, partially due to advances in storage technology, and partially due to the growing popularity of cloud-computing and the vast quantities of data generated. This motivates the need…
In the semi-streaming model, an algorithm must process any $n$-vertex graph by making one or few passes over a stream of its edges, use $O(n \cdot \text{polylog }n)$ words of space, and at the end of the last pass, output a solution to the…
We propose two one-pass streaming algorithms for the $\mathcal{NP}$-hard hypergraph matching problem. The first algorithm stores a small subset of potential matching edges in a stack using dual variables to select edges. It has an…
We improve on random sampling techniques for approximately solving problems that involve cuts and flows in graphs. We give a near-linear-time construction that transforms any graph on n vertices into an O(n\log n)-edge graph on the same…

We consider the \textsf{Unit Interval Selection} problem in the one-pass random order streaming model. Here, an algorithm is presented a sequence of $n$ unit-length intervals on the line that arrive in uniform random order, and the…
We present an algorithm that, with high probability, generates a random spanning tree from an edge-weighted undirected graph in $\tilde{O}(n^{4/3}m^{1/2}+n^{2})$ time (The $\tilde{O}(\cdot)$ notation hides $\operatorname{polylog}(n)$…
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…
