We study sublinear time algorithms for estimating the size of maximum matching. After a long line of research, the problem was finally settled by Behnezhad [FOCS'22], in the regime where one is willing to pay an approximation factor of $2$.…

Conditional lower bounds for dynamic graph problems has received a great deal of attention in recent years. While many results are now known for the fully-dynamic case and such bounds often imply worst-case bounds for the partially dynamic…

In this paper, we consider the problem of maintaining a $(1-\varepsilon)$-approximate maximum weight matching in a dynamic graph $G$, while the adversary makes changes to the edges of the graph. In the fully dynamic setting, where both edge…
