For $n$-vertex $m$-edge graphs with integer polynomially-bounded costs and capacities, we provide a randomized parallel algorithm for the minimum cost flow problem with $\tilde O(m+n^ {1.5})$ work and $\tilde O(\sqrt{n})$ depth. On…
Most graphs in real life keep changing with time. These changes can be in the form of insertion or deletion of edges or vertices. Such rapidly changing graphs motivate us to study dynamic graph algorithms. However, three important graph…

An independent dominating set D of a graph G = (V,E) is a subset of vertices such that every vertex in V \ D has at least one neighbor in D and D is an independent set, i.e. no two vertices of D are adjacent in G. Finding a minimum…

We prove that a simple distributed algorithm finds a constant approximation of an optimal distance-$k$ dominating set in graphs with no $K_{2,t}$-minor. The algorithm runs in a constant number of rounds. We further show how this procedure…

We study the problem of releasing the weights of all-pair shortest paths in a weighted undirected graph with differential privacy (DP). In this setting, the underlying graph is fixed and two graphs are neighbors if their edge weights differ…

Depth first search (DFS) tree is a fundamental data structure for solving various problems in graphs. It is well known that it takes $O(m+n)$ time to build a DFS tree for a given undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ on $n$ vertices and $m$ edges. We…
We study graph partitioning problems from a min-max perspective, in which an input graph on n vertices should be partitioned into k parts, and the objective is to minimize the maximum number of edges leaving a single part. The two main…
We study the problem of maximizing the broadcast rate in peer-to-peer (P2P) systems under \emph{node degree bounds}, i.e., the number of neighbors a node can simultaneously connect to is upper-bounded. The problem is critical for supporting…
We present TeraPart, a memory-efficient multilevel graph partitioning method that is designed to scale to extremely large graphs. In balanced graph partitioning, the goal is to divide the vertices into $k$ blocks with balanced size while…
We describe the first algorithms that satisfy the standard notion of node-differential privacy in the continual release setting (i.e., without an assumed promise on input streams). Previous work addresses node-private continual release by…
Gathering is a fundamental coordination problem in swarm robotics, where the objective is to bring robots together at a point not known to them at the beginning. While most research focuses on continuous domains, some studies also examine…

As the sizes of graphs grow rapidly, currently many real-world graphs can hardly be loaded in the main memory. It becomes a hot topic to compute depth-first search (DFS) results, i.e., depth-first order or DFS-Tree, on semi-external memory…
The Gathering problem for a swarm of robots asks for a distributed algorithm that brings such entities to a common place, not known in advance. We consider the well-known OBLOT model with robots constrained to move along the edges of a…
