We study the detection and the reconstruction of a large very dense subgraph in a social graph with $n$ nodes and $m$ edges given as a stream of edges, when the graph follows a power law degree distribution, in the regime when $m=O(n. \log…
Recently Elkin and Solomon gave a construction of spanners for doubling metrics that has constant maximum degree, hop-diameter O(log n) and lightness O(log n) (i.e., weight O(log n)w(MST). This resolves a long standing conjecture proposed…
We demonstrate the feasibility of end-to-end communication in highly unreliable networks. Modeling a network as a graph with vertices representing nodes and edges representing the links between them, we consider two forms of unreliability:…
We present a randomized algorithm for dynamic graph connectivity. With failure probability less than $1/n^c$ (for any constant $c$ we choose), our solution has worst case running time $O(\log^3 n)$ per edge insertion, $O(\log^4 n)$ per edge…
We give a short and easy upper bound on the worst-case size of fault tolerant spanners, which improves on all prior work and is fully optimal at least in the setting of vertex faults.
This paper investigates the robustness of strong structural controllability for linear time-invariant and linear time-varying directed networks with respect to structural perturbations, including edge deletions and additions. In this…
This paper addresses the problem of designing a {\em fault-tolerant} $(\alpha, \beta)$ approximate BFS structure (or {\em FT-ABFS structure} for short), namely, a subgraph $H$ of the network $G$ such that subsequent to the failure of some…
In this paper we study graph problems in dynamic streaming model, where the input is defined by a sequence of edge insertions and deletions. As many natural problems require $\Omega(n)$ space, where $n$ is the number of vertices, existing…
The main paradigm of smoothed analysis on graphs suggests that for any large graph $G$ in a certain class of graphs, perturbing slightly the edges of $G$ at random (usually adding few random edges to $G$) typically results in a graph having…
While the problem of determining whether an embedding of a graph $G$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$ is {\it infinitesimally rigid} is well understood, specifying whether a given embedding of $G$ is {\it rigid} or not is still a hard task that usually…
Embedding graphs in a geographical or latent space, i.e.\ inferring locations for vertices in Euclidean space or on a smooth manifold or submanifold, is a common task in network analysis, statistical inference, and graph visualization. We…
Graph spanners and emulators are sparse structures that approximately preserve distances of the original graph. While there has been an extensive amount of work on additive spanners, so far little attention was given to weighted graphs.…
How many edges in an $n$-vertex graph will force the existence of a cycle with as many chords as it has vertices? Almost 30 years ago, Chen, Erd\H{o}s and Staton considered this question and showed that any $n$-vertex graph with $2n^{3/2}$…
In this note we establish a resilience version of the classical hitting time result of Bollob\'{a}s and Thomason regarding connectivity. A graph $G$ is said to be $\alpha$-resilient with respect to a monotone increasing graph property…
In SoCG 2022, Conroy and T\'oth presented several constructions of sparse, low-hop spanners in geometric intersection graphs, including an $O(n\log n)$-size 3-hop spanner for $n$ disks (or fat convex objects) in the plane, and an $O(n\log^2…
In this paper we devise a novel \emph{unified} construction of Euclidean spanners that trades between the maximum degree, diameter and weight gracefully. For a positive integer k, our construction provides a (1+eps)-spanner with maximum…
A $k$-additive spanner of a graph is a subgraph that preserves the distance between any two nodes up to a total additive error of $+k$. Efficient algorithms have been devised for constructing 2 [Aingworth et al. SIAM '99], 6 [Baswana et al.…
$t$-spanners are used to approximate the pairwise distances between a set of points in a metric space. They have only a few edges compared to the total number of pairs and they provide a $t$-approximation on the distance of any two…
Many real-world networks, such as transportation or trade networks, are dynamic in the sense that the edge set may change over time, but these changes are known in advance. This behavior is captured by the temporal graphs model, which has…
Let $G = (V,E,w)$ be a weighted undirected graph on $|V| = n$ vertices and $|E| = m$ edges, let $k \ge 1$ be any integer, and let $\epsilon < 1$ be any parameter. We present the following results on fast constructions of spanners with…
