We propose a simple and time-optimal algorithm for property testing a graph for its conductance in the CONGEST model. Our algorithm takes only $O(\log n)$ rounds of communication (which is known to be optimal), and consists of simply…

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 present a deterministic $(1+o(1))$-approximation $(n^{1/2+o(1)}+D^{1+o(1)})$-time algorithm for solving the single-source shortest paths problem on distributed weighted networks (the CONGEST model); here $n$ is the number of nodes in the…

We consider the problem of assigning short labels to the vertices and edges of a graph $G$ so that given any query $\langle s,t,F\rangle$ with $|F|\leq f$, we can determine whether $s$ and $t$ are still connected in $G-F$, given only the…
