The number of triangles in a graph is a fundamental metric, used in social network analysis, link classification and recommendation, and more. Driven by these applications and the trend that modern graph datasets are both large and dynamic,…
We consider the problem of estimating the number of triangles in a graph. This problem has been extensively studied in both theory and practice, but all existing algorithms read the entire graph. In this work we design a {\em…
We propose two one-pass streaming algorithms for the $\mathcal{NP}$-hard hypergraph matching problem. The first algorithm stores a small subset of potential matching edges in a stack using dual variables to select edges. It has an…
We revisit the well-studied problem of triangle count estimation in graph streams. Given a graph represented as a stream of $m$ edges, our aim is to compute a $(1\pm\varepsilon)$-approximation to the triangle count $T$, using a small space…
Structural balance theory studies stability in networks. Given a $n$-vertex complete graph $G=(V,E)$ whose edges are labeled positive or negative, the graph is considered \emph{balanced} if every triangle either consists of three positive…
In an $m$-edge host graph $G$, all triangles can be listed in time $O(m^{1.5})$ [Itai, Rodeh '78], and all $k$-cycles can be listed in time $O(m^{2-1/{\lceil k/2 \rceil}} + t)$ where $t$ is the output size [Alon, Yuster, Zwick '97]. These…
We consider the problem of estimating the value of max cut in a graph in the streaming model of computation. At one extreme, there is a trivial $2$-approximation for this problem that uses only $O(\log n)$ space, namely, count the number of…
We present the first streaming algorithm for counting an arbitrary hypergraph $H$ of constant size in a massive hypergraph $G$. Our algorithm can handle both edge-insertions and edge-deletions, and is applicable for the distributed setting.…
Recently [Bhattacharya et al., STOC 2015] provide the first non-trivial algorithm for the densest subgraph problem in the streaming model with additions and deletions to its edges, i.e., for dynamic graph streams. They present a…
Triangle counting and sampling are two fundamental problems for streaming algorithms. Arguably, designing sampling algorithms is more challenging than their counting variants. It may be noted that triangle counting has received far greater…
Consider the following 2-respecting min-cut problem. Given a weighted graph $G$ and its spanning tree $T$, find the minimum cut among the cuts that contain at most two edges in $T$. This problem is an important subroutine in Karger's…
Approximating quantiles and distributions over streaming data has been studied for roughly two decades now. Recently, Karnin, Lang, and Liberty proposed the first asymptotically optimal algorithm for doing so. This manuscript complements…
We describe a data structure that maintains the number of triangles in a dynamic undirected graph, subject to insertions and deletions of edges and of degree-zero vertices. More generally it can be used to maintain the number of copies of…
In this paper, we study the problem of computing an edge-coloring in the (one-pass) W-streaming model. In this setting, the edges of an $n$-node graph arrive in an arbitrary order to a machine with a relatively small space, and the goal is…
We design a space efficient algorithm that approximates the transitivity (global clustering coefficient) and total triangle count with only a single pass through a graph given as a stream of edges. Our procedure is based on the classic…
The number of triangles in a graph is useful to deduce a plethora of important features of the network that the graph is modeling. However, finding the exact value of this number is computationally expensive. Hence, a number of…
The degree distribution of a graph $G=(V,E)$, $|V|=n$, $|E|=m$ is one of the most fundamental objects of study in the analysis of graphs as it embodies relationship among entities. In particular, an important derived distribution from…
The problem of sparsifying a graph or a hypergraph while approximately preserving its cut structure has been extensively studied and has many applications. In a seminal work, Bencz\'ur and Karger (1996) showed that given any $n$-vertex…
The problem of counting small subgraphs, and specifically cycles, in the streaming model received a lot of attention over the past few years. In this paper, we consider arbitrary order insertion-only streams, improving over the…
We consider the problem of finding a minimum cut of a weighted graph presented as a single-pass stream. While graph sparsification in streams has been intensively studied, the specific application of finding minimum cuts in streams is less…
