Let $G$ be a simple graph with maximum degree $\Delta(G)$ and chromatic index $\chi'(G)$. A classic result of Vizing indicates that either $\chi'(G )=\Delta(G)$ or $\chi'(G )=\Delta(G)+1$. The graph $G$ is called $\Delta$-critical if $G$ is…

We present a randomized algorithm that takes as input an undirected $n$-vertex graph $G$ with maximum degree $\Delta$ and an integer $k > 3\Delta$, and returns a random proper $k$-coloring of $G$. The distribution of the coloring is…

We study the fully dynamic maximum matching problem. In this problem, the goal is to efficiently maintain an approximate maximum matching of a graph that is subject to edge insertions and deletions. Our focus is on algorithms that maintain…

Linial's famous color reduction algorithm reduces a given $m$-coloring of a graph with maximum degree $\Delta$ to a $O(\Delta^2\log m)$-coloring, in a single round in the LOCAL model. We show a similar result when nodes are restricted to…

Given a graph $G$ and color set $\{1, \ldots, k\}$, a $\textit{proper coloring}$ is an assignment of a color to each vertex of $G$ such that no two vertices connected by an edge are given the same color. The problem of drawing a proper…

We present a novel algorithm for edge-coloring of multigraphs. The correctness of this algorithm for multigraphs with $\chi' > \Delta +1$ ($\chi'$ is the chromatic edge number and $\Delta$ is the maximum vertex degree) would prove a long…

Recently we presented the first algorithm for maintaining the set of nodes reachable from a source node in a directed graph that is modified by edge deletions with $o(mn)$ total update time, where $m$ is the number of edges and $n$ is the…

In this paper, we give list coloring variants of simple iterative defective coloring algorithms. Formally, in a list defective coloring instance, each node $v$ of a graph is given a list $L_v$ of colors and a list of allowed defects…

A seminal palette sparsification result of Assadi, Chen, and Khanna states that in every $n$-vertex graph of maximum degree $\Delta$, sampling $\Theta(\log n)$ colors per vertex from $\{1, \ldots, \Delta+1\}$ almost certainly allows for a…

Reducing the running time of graph algorithms is vital for tackling real-world problems such as shortest paths and matching in large-scale graphs, where path information plays a crucial role. To address this critical challenge, this paper…

The present paper studies local distributed graph problems in highly dynamic networks. Communication and changes of the graph happen in synchronous rounds and our algorithms always, i.e., in every round, satisfy non-trivial guarantees, no…

In 1965, Vizing proved that every planar graph $G$ with maximum degree $\Delta\geq 8$ is edge $\Delta$-colorable. It is also proved that every planar graph $G$ with maximum degree $\Delta=7$ is edge $\Delta$-colorable by Sanders and Zhao,…

We prove several new tight distributed lower bounds for classic symmetry breaking graph problems. As a basic tool, we first provide a new insightful proof that any deterministic distributed algorithm that computes a $\Delta$-coloring on…

We establish two versions of Vizing's theorem for Borel multi-graphs whose vertex degrees and edge multiplicities are uniformly bounded by respectively $\Delta$ and $\pi$. The ``approximate'' version states that, for any Borel probability…

We develop new $(1+\epsilon)$-approximation algorithms for finding the global minimum edge-cut in a directed edge-weighted graph, and for finding the global minimum vertex-cut in a directed vertex-weighted graph. Our algorithms are…

This paper investigates the semi-streaming complexity of \textit{$k$-partial coloring}, a generalization of proper graph coloring. For $k \geq 1$, a $k$-partial coloring requires that each vertex $v$ in an $n$-node graph is assigned a color…

A temporal graph is a sequence of graphs (called layers) over the same vertex set -- describing a graph topology which is subject to discrete changes over time. A $\Delta$-temporal matching $M$ is a set of time edges $(e,t)$ (an edge $e$…

Let $H_n$ be a graph on $n$ vertices and let $\ber{H_n}$ denote the complement of $H_n$. Suppose that $\Delta = \Delta(n)$ is the maximum degree of $\ber{H_n}$. We analyse three algorithms for sampling $d$-regular subgraphs ($d$-factors) of…

Graph coloring is a fundamental problem in computer science. We study the fully dynamic version of the problem in which the graph is undergoing edge insertions and deletions and we wish to maintain a vertex-coloring with small update time…
