In graph sparsification, the goal has almost always been of {global} nature: compress a graph into a smaller subgraph ({sparsifier}) that maintains certain features of the original graph. Algorithms can then run on the sparsifier, which in…
For an undirected/directed hypergraph $G=(V,E)$, its Laplacian $L_G\colon\mathbb{R}^V\to \mathbb{R}^V$ is defined such that its ``quadratic form'' $\boldsymbol{x}^\top L_G(\boldsymbol{x})$ captures the cut information of $G$. In particular,…

Maintaining and updating shortest paths information in a graph is a fundamental problem with many applications. As computations on dense graphs can be prohibitively expensive, and it is preferable to perform the computations on a sparse…

The intersection graph induced by a set $\Disks$ of $n$ disks can be dense. It is thus natural to try and sparsify it, while preserving connectivity. Unfortunately, sparse graphs can always be made disconnected by removing a small number of…
