In the semi-streaming model, an algorithm receives a stream of edges of a graph in arbitrary order and uses a memory of size $O(n \mbox{ polylog } n)$, where $n$ is the number of vertices of a graph. In this work, we present semi-streaming…

For a given graph $G$, a depth-first search (DFS) tree $T$ of $G$ is an $r$-rooted spanning tree such that every edge of $G$ is either an edge of $T$ or is between a \textit{descendant} and an \textit{ancestor} in $T$. A graph $G$ together…

We call a graph $G$ separable if a balanced separator can be computed for $G$ of size $O(n^c)$ with $c<1$. Many real-world graphs are separable such as graphs of bounded genus, graphs of constant treewidth, and graphs excluding a fixed…

We present semi-streaming algorithms for basic graph problems that have optimal per-edge processing times and therefore surpass all previous semi-streaming algorithms for these tasks. The semi-streaming model, which is appropriate when…

In this paper, we resolve a long-standing question in self-stabilization by demonstrating that it is indeed possible to construct a spanning tree in a semi-uniform network using constant memory per node. We introduce a self-stabilizing…

We study the problem of solving semidefinite programs (SDP) in the streaming model. Specifically, $m$ constraint matrices and a target matrix $C$, all of size $n\times n$ together with a vector $b\in \mathbb{R}^m$ are streamed to us…

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 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…
