We study the classical rumor spreading problem, which is used to spread information in an unknown network with $n$ nodes. We present the first protocol for any expander graph $G$ with $n$ nodes and minimum degree $\Theta(n)$ such that, the…

We give almost-linear-time algorithms for approximating rooted minimum cut and maximum arborescence packing in directed graphs, two problems that are dual to each other [Edm73]. More specifically, for an $n$-vertex, $m$-edge directed graph…
For distributed graph processing on massive graphs, a graph is partitioned into multiple equally-sized parts which are distributed among machines in a compute cluster. In the last decade, many partitioning algorithms have been developed…
In graph neural networks (GNNs), pooling operators compute local summaries of input graphs to capture their global properties, and they are fundamental for building deep GNNs that learn hierarchical representations. In this work, we propose…
Expander graphs are known to be robust to edge deletions in the following sense: for any online sequence of edge deletions $e_1, e_2, \ldots, e_k$ to an $m$-edge graph $G$ that is initially a $\phi$-expander, the algorithm can grow a set $P…
In this paper, we propose an extension to the Propagator algorithm for source bearing estimation by performing root decomposition which eliminates the need for spectral search over angles. Further the propagator spatial spectrum is reused…
