We design a Quasi-Polynomial time deterministic approximation algorithm for computing the integral of a multi-dimensional separable function, supported by some underlying hyper-graph structure, appropriately defined. Equivalently, our…
We present an $O(\log^3\log n)$-round distributed algorithm for the $(\Delta+1)$-coloring problem, where each node broadcasts only one $O(\log n)$-bit message per round to its neighbors. Previously, the best such broadcast-based algorithm…
We develop deterministic approximation algorithms for the minimum dominating set problem in the CONGEST model with an almost optimal approximation guarantee. For $\epsilon>1/{\text{{poly}}}\log \Delta$ we obtain two algorithms with…
We solve, in a fully decentralised way (\ie with no message passing), the classic problem of colouring a graph. We propose a novel algorithm that is automatically responsive to topology changes, and we prove that it converges quickly to a…
Reed [J.~Comb.~Theory B, 1999] showed that graphs of maximum degree $\Delta \geq 10^{14}$ without $\Delta$-cliques are $(\Delta-1)$-colorable. We design a one-pass semi-streaming algorithm for computing such a coloring. Additionally, we…
We show that for any fixed integer $m \geq 1$, a graph of maximum degree $\Delta$ has a coloring with $O(\Delta^{(m+1)/m})$ colors in which every connected bicolored subgraph contains at most $m$ edges. This result unifies previously known…
We consider the question of orienting the edges in a graph $G$ such that every vertex has bounded out-degree. For graphs of arboricity $\alpha$, there is an orientation in which every vertex has out-degree at most $\alpha$ and, moreover,…
We study distributed algorithms that find a maximal matching in an anonymous, edge-coloured graph. If the edges are properly coloured with $k$ colours, there is a trivial greedy algorithm that finds a maximal matching in $k-1$ synchronous…
Let $\Delta,q\geq 3$ be integers. We prove that there exists $\eta\geq 0.002$ such that if $q\geq (2-\eta)\Delta$, then there exists an open set $\mathcal{U}\subset \mathbb{C}$ that contains the interval $[0,1]$ such that for each $w\in…
The acyclic chromatic index of a graph $G$ is the least number of colors needed to properly color its edges so that none of its cycles is bichromatic. In this work, we show that $2\Delta-1$ colors are sufficient to produce such a coloring,…
We consider the distributed complexity of the (degree+1)-list coloring problem, in which each node $u$ of degree $d(u)$ is assigned a palette of $d(u)+1$ colors, and the goal is to find a proper coloring using these color palettes. The…
This paper addresses the cornerstone family of \emph{local problems} in distributed computing, and investigates the curious gap between randomized and deterministic solutions under bandwidth restrictions. Our main contribution is in…
We contribute to the theoretical understanding of randomized search heuristics for dynamic problems. We consider the classical vertex coloring problem on graphs and investigate the dynamic setting where edges are added to the current graph.…
We develop sequential algorithms for constructing edge-colorings of graphs and multigraphs efficiently and using few colors. Our primary focus is edge-coloring arbitrary simple graphs using $d+1$ colors, where $d$ is the largest vertex…
The $\hybrid$ model was recently introduced by Augustine et al. \cite{DBLP:conf/soda/AugustineHKSS20} in order to characterize from an algorithmic standpoint the capabilities of networks which combine multiple communication modes.…
This paper improves and in two cases nearly settles, up to logarithmically lower-order factors, the deterministic complexity of some of the most central problems in distributed graph algorithms, which have been studied for over three…
We develop an improved bound for the chromatic number of graphs of maximum degree $\Delta$ under the assumption that the number of edges spanning any neighbourhood is at most $(1-\sigma)\binom{\Delta}{2}$ for some fixed $0<\sigma<1$. The…
We give an almost complete characterization of the hardness of $c$-coloring $\chi$-chromatic graphs with distributed algorithms, for a wide range of models of distributed computing. In particular, we show that these problems do not admit…
We consider a decentralized graph coloring model where each vertex only knows its own color and whether some neighbor has the same color as it. The networking community has studied this model extensively due to its applications to channel…
We present a randomized algorithm that takes as input an undirected $n$-vertex graph $G$ with maximum degree $\Delta$ and an integer $k > 3\Delta$, and returns a random proper $k$-coloring of $G$. The distribution of the coloring is…
