In this paper, assuming the low-degree conjecture, we provide evidence of computational hardness for two problems: (1) the (partial) matching recovery problem in the sparse correlated Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graphs $\mathcal G(n,q;\rho)$ when the…

A dominating set of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a subset of vertices $S\subseteq V$ such that every vertex $v\in V\setminus S$ has at least one neighbor in set $S$. The corresponding optimization problem is known to be NP-hard. The best known…

Estimating the average degree of graph is a classic problem in sublinear graph algorithm. Eden, Ron, and Seshadhri (ICALP 2017, SIDMA 2019) gave a simple algorithm for this problem whose running time depended on the graph arboricity, but…

For a graph G=(V,E), finding a set of disjoint edges that do not share any vertices is called a matching problem, and finding the maximum matching is a fundamental problem in the theory of distributed graph algorithms. Although local…

We show that for a number of parameterized problems for which only $2^{O(k)} n^{O(1)}$ time algorithms are known on general graphs, subexponential parameterized algorithms with running time $2^{O(k^{1-\frac{1}{1+\delta}} \log^2 k)}…

We investigate the problem of detecting correlation between two Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graphs $G(n,p)$, formulated as a hypothesis testing problem: under the null hypothesis, the two graphs are independent, while under the alternative…

We introduce a new notion of graph sparsificaiton based on spectral similarity of graph Laplacians: spectral sparsification requires that the Laplacian quadratic form of the sparsifier approximate that of the original. This is equivalent to…

Ordered matchings, defined as graphs with linearly ordered vertices, where each vertex is connected to exactly one edge, play a crucial role in the area of ordered graphs and their homomorphisms. Therefore, we consider related problems from…

The densest subgraph of a large graph usually refers to some subgraph with the highest average degree, which has been extended to the family of $p$-means dense subgraph objectives by~\citet{veldt2021generalized}. The $p$-mean densest…
