We study property testing in the \emph{random neighbor oracle} model for graphs, originally introduced by Czumaj and Sohler [STOC 2019]. Specifically, we initiate the study of characterizing the graph families that are $H$-\emph{testable}…

Since their introduction by Kipf and Welling in $2017$, a primary use of graph convolutional networks is transductive node classification, where missing labels are inferred within a single observed graph and its feature matrix. Despite the…

Learning from data owned by several parties, as in federated learning, raises challenges regarding the privacy guarantees provided to participants and the correctness of the computation in the presence of malicious parties. We tackle these…

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…

We study graph realization problems from a distributed perspective and we study it in the node capacitated clique (NCC) model of distributed computing, recently introduced for representing peer-to-peer networks. We focus on two central…

Exact pattern matching in labeled graphs is the problem of searching paths of a graph $G=(V,E)$ that spell the same string as the given pattern $P[1..m]$. This basic problem can be found at the heart of more complex operations on variation…

Persistence diagrams (PDs), often characterized as sets of death and birth of homology class, have been known for providing a topological representation of a graph structure, which is often useful in machine learning tasks. Prior works rely…

In graph property testing the task is to distinguish whether a graph satisfies a given property or is "far" from having that property, preferably with a sublinear query and time complexity. In this work we initiate the study of property…

Classes with bounded expansion, which generalise classes that exclude a topological minor, have recently been introduced by Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il and Ossona de Mendez. These classes are defined by the fact that the maximum average degree of a…

In the Disjoint Paths problem, the input consists of an $n$-vertex graph $G$ and a collection of $k$ vertex pairs, $\{(s_i,t_i)\}_{i=1}^k$, and the objective is to determine whether there exists a collection $\{P_i\}_{i=1}^k$ of $k$…

As a fundamental tool in hierarchical graph clustering, computing connected components has been a central problem in large-scale data mining. While many known algorithms have been developed for this problem, they are either not scalable in…

We consider graph coloring and related problems in the distributed message-passing model. {Locally-iterative algorithms} are especially important in this setting. These are algorithms in which each vertex decides about its next color only…

In this paper, we show that computing canonical labelings of graphs of bounded rank-width is in $\textsf{TC}^{2}$. Our approach builds on the framework of K\"obler & Verbitsky (CSR 2008), who established the analogous result for graphs of…

Graph embedding has become a key component of many data mining and analysis systems. Current graph embedding approaches either sample a large number of node pairs from a graph to learn node embeddings via stochastic optimization or…

It is a well known fact that sequential algorithms which exhibit a strong "local" nature can be adapted to the distributed setting given a legal graph coloring. The running time of the distributed algorithm will then be at least the number…

We consider graph property testing in $p$-degenerate graphs under the random neighbor oracle model (Czumaj and Sohler, FOCS 2019). In this framework, a tester explores a graph by sampling uniform neighbors of vertices, and a property is…

This paper is concerned with efficiently coloring sparse graphs in the distributed setting with as few colors as possible. According to the celebrated Four Color Theorem, planar graphs can be colored with at most 4 colors, and the proof…

Identifying the sets of operations that can be executed simultaneously is an important problem appearing in many parallel applications. By modeling the operations and their interactions as a graph, one can identify the independent…

This work examines the problem of graph learning over a diffusion network when data can be collected from a limited portion of the network (partial observability). The main question is to establish technical guarantees of consistent…

We experimentally evaluate the practical state-of-the-art in graph bipartization (Odd Cycle Transversal), motivated by recent advances in near-term quantum computing hardware and the related embedding problems. We assemble a preprocessing…
