Subgraph detection has recently been one of the most studied problems in the CONGEST model of distributed computing. In this work, we study the distributed complexity of problems closely related to subgraph detection, mainly focusing on…
We present results for the distance sensitivity oracle (DSO) problem, where one needs to preprocess a given directed weighted graph $G=(V,E)$ in order to answer queries about the shortest path distance in $G$ from vertex $s$ to vertex $t$…
Out-of-distribution (OOD) detection is an important task in machine learning systems for ensuring their reliability and safety. Deep probabilistic generative models facilitate OOD detection by estimating the likelihood of a data sample.…
This paper studies lower bounds for fundamental optimization problems in the CONGEST model. We show that solving problems exactly in this model can be a hard task, by providing $\tilde{\Omega}(n^2)$ lower bounds for cornerstone problems,…
Connectivity related concepts are of fundamental interest in graph theory. The area has received extensive attention over four decades, but many problems remain unsolved, especially for directed graphs. A directed graph is 2-edge-connected…
We consider a class of popular distributed non-convex optimization problems, in which agents connected by a network $\mathcal{G}$ collectively optimize a sum of smooth (possibly non-convex) local objective functions. We address the…
A graph $G = (V,E)$ can be described by the characteristic function of the edge set $\chi_E$ which maps a pair of binary encoded nodes to 1 iff the nodes are adjacent. Using \emph{Ordered Binary Decision Diagrams} (OBDDs) to store $\chi_E$…
In the decremental $(1+\epsilon)$-approximate Single-Source Shortest Path (SSSP) problem, we are given a graph $G=(V,E)$ with $n = |V|, m = |E|$, undergoing edge deletions, and a distinguished source $s \in V$, and we are asked to process…
We revisit the classic problem of estimating the degree distribution moments of an undirected graph. Consider an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ with $n$ vertices, and define (for $s > 0$) $\mu_s = \frac{1}{n}\cdot\sum_{v \in V} d^s_v$. Our aim…
We develop a new approach for distributed distance computation in planar graphs that is based on a variant of the metric compression problem recently introduced by Abboud et al. [SODA'18]. One of our key technical contributions is in…
In this paper we present a deterministic CONGEST algorithm to compute an $O(k\Delta)$-vertex coloring in $O(\Delta/k)+\log^* n$ rounds, where $\Delta$ is the maximum degree of the network graph and $1\leq k\leq O(\Delta)$ can be freely…
Fine-grained reductions have established equivalences between many core problems with $\tilde{O}(n^3)$-time algorithms on $n$-node weighted graphs, such as Shortest Cycle, All-Pairs Shortest Paths (APSP), Radius, Replacement Paths, Second…
We study the problem of releasing the weights of all-pair shortest paths in a weighted undirected graph with differential privacy (DP). In this setting, the underlying graph is fixed and two graphs are neighbors if their edge weights differ…
In this paper we solve the problem of finding in a given weighted hypergraph a subhypergraph with a maximum possible density. We introduce the notion of a support matrix and prove that the density of an optimal subhypergraph is equal to…
A partition $(C_1,C_2,...,C_q)$ of $G = (V,E)$ into clusters of strong (respectively, weak) diameter $d$, such that the supergraph obtained by contracting each $C_i$ is $\ell$-colorable is called a strong (resp., weak) $(d,…

We design fast deterministic algorithms for distance computation in the congested clique model. Our key contributions include: -- A $(2+\epsilon)$-approximation for all-pairs shortest paths in $O(\log^2{n} / \epsilon)$ rounds on unweighted…
The densest $k$-subgraph problem is the problem of finding a $k$-vertex subgraph of a graph with the maximum number of edges. In order to solve large instances of the densest $k$-subgraph problem, we introduce two algorithms that are based…
In this paper we provide a parallel algorithm that given any $n$-node $m$-edge directed graph and source vertex $s$ computes all vertices reachable from $s$ with $\tilde{O}(m)$ work and $n^{1/2 + o(1)}$ depth with high probability in $n$ .…
Predictive machine learning models generally excel on in-distribution data, but their performance degrades on out-of-distribution (OOD) inputs. Reliable deployment therefore requires robust OOD detection, yet this is particularly…
