We describe a synchronous distributed algorithm which identifies the edge-biconnected components of a connected network. It requires a leader, and uses messages of size O(log |V|). The main idea is to preorder a BFS spanning tree, and then…
We design an algorithm for computing connectivity in hypergraphs which runs in time $\hat O_r(p + \min\{\lambda^{\frac{r-3}{r-1}} n^2, n^r/\lambda^{r/(r-1)}\})$ (the $\hat O_r(\cdot)$ hides the terms subpolynomial in the main parameter and…
In the fully dynamic edge connectivity problem, the input is a simple graph $G$ undergoing edge insertions and deletions, and the goal is to maintain its edge connectivity, denoted $\lambda_G$. We present two simple randomized algorithms…
We study the complexity of determining the edge connectivity of a simple graph with cut queries. We show that (i) there is a bounded-error randomized algorithm that computes edge connectivity with $O(n)$ cut queries, and (ii) there is a…
We propose a fully dynamic algorithm for maintaining reachability information in directed graphs. The proposed deterministic dynamic algorithm has an update time of $O((ins*n^{2}) + (del * (m+n*log(n))))$ where $m$ is the current number of…
In 1996, Karger [Kar96] gave a startling randomized algorithm that finds a minimum-cut in a (weighted) graph in time $O(m\log^3n)$ which he termed near-linear time meaning linear (in the size of the input) times a polylogarthmic factor. In…
Given a simple $n$-vertex, $m$-edge graph $G$ undergoing edge insertions and deletions, we give two new fully dynamic algorithms for exactly maintaining the edge connectivity of $G$ in $\tilde{O}(n)$ worst-case update time and…

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 the first deterministic algorithm that makes sub-quadratic queries to find the global min-cut of a simple graph in the cut query model. Given an $n$-vertex graph $G$, our algorithm makes $\widetilde{O}(n^{5/3})$ queries to compute…
Sampling edges from a graph in sublinear time is a fundamental problem and a powerful subroutine for designing sublinear-time algorithms. Suppose we have access to the vertices of the graph and know a constant-factor approximation to the…

The area of sublinear algorithms have recently received a lot of attention. In this setting, one has to choose specific access model for the input, as the algorithm does not have time to pre-process or even to see the whole input. A…
