Community search aims at finding densely connected subgraphs for query vertices in a graph. While this task has been studied widely in the literature, most of the existing works only focus on finding homogeneous communities rather than…

For a graph $G$ and a parameter $k$, we call a vertex $k$-enabling if it belongs both to a clique of size $k$ and to an independent set of size $k$, and we call it $k$-excluding otherwise. Motivated by issues that arise in secret sharing…

In this paper, we study the graph realization problem in the Congested Clique model of distributed computing under crash faults. We consider {\em degree-sequence realization}, in which each node $v$ is associated with a degree value $d(v)$,…

We study the problem of computing approximate minimum edge cuts by distributed algorithms. We use a standard synchronous message passing model where in each round, $O(\log n)$ bits can be transmitted over each edge (a.k.a. the CONGEST…

Motivated by an application in community detection, we consider an \ER random graph conditioned on the rare event that all connected components are fully connected. Such graphs can be considered as partitions of vertices into cliques.…

Consider a point-to-point message-passing network. We are interested in the asynchronous crash-tolerant consensus problem in incomplete networks. We study the feasibility and efficiency of approximate consensus under different restrictions…

As a generalization of the traditional connectivity, the g-component edge connectivity c{\lambda}g(G) of a non-complete graph G is the minimum number of edges to be deleted from the graph G such that the resulting graph has at least g…

We consider a problem introduced by Feige, Gamarnik, Neeman, R\'acz and Tetali [2020], that of finding a large clique in a random graph $G\sim G(n,\frac{1}{2})$, where the graph $G$ is accessible by queries to entries of its adjacency…

A communication network is a graph in which each node has only local information about the graph and nodes communicate by passing messages along its edges. Here, we consider the {\it geometric communication network} where the nodes also…

Clique clustering is the problem of partitioning the vertices of a graph into disjoint clusters, where each cluster forms a clique in the graph, while optimizing some objective function. In online clustering, the input graph is given one…

It takes $n^2/4$ cliques to cover all the edges of a complete bipartite graph $K_{n/2,n/2}$, but how many cliques does it take to cover all the edges of a graph $G$ if $G$ has no $K_{t,t}$ induced subgraph? We prove that $O(|G|^{2-1/(2t)})$…

We use the concept of the network communicability (Phys. Rev. E 77 (2008) 036111) to define communities in a complex network. The communities are defined as the cliques of a communicability graph, which has the same set of nodes as the…
