An edge-coloring of a graph G is acyclic if it is a proper edge-coloring of G and every cycle contains at least three colors. We prove that every graph with maximum degree Delta has an acyclic edge-coloring with at most 4 Delta - 4 colors,…
We show that the $(degree+1)$-list coloring problem can be solved deterministically in $O(D \cdot \log n \cdot\log^2\Delta)$ rounds in the \CONGEST model, where $D$ is the diameter of the graph, $n$ the number of nodes, and $\Delta$ the…
Given a dynamic graph $G$ with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges subject to insertion an deletions of edges, we show how to maintain a $(1+\varepsilon)\Delta$-edge-colouring of $G$ without the use of randomisation. More specifically, we show a…
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…
We prove that any algorithm for detecting cycles in an $m \times n$ grid graph, where cells are colored and adjacency is defined by matching colors, must read all $mn$ cells in the worst case for all grids with $m \geq 2$ and $n \geq 2$.…

We consider the problem of coloring a 3-colorable graph in polynomial time using as few colors as possible. We present a combinatorial algorithm getting down to $\tO(n^{4/11})$ colors. This is the first combinatorial improvement of Blum's…
To implement a linearizable shared memory in synchronous message-passing systems it is necessary to wait for a time linear to the uncertainty in the latency of the network for both read and write operations. Waiting only for one of them…
We study the problem of reaching agreement in a synchronous distributed system by $n$ autonomous parties, when the communication links from/to faulty parties can omit messages. The faulty parties are selected and controlled by an adaptive,…
