This thesis studies the graph alignment problem, the noisy version of the graph isomorphism problem, which aims to find a matching between the nodes of two graphs which preserves most of the edges. Focusing on the planted version where the…
We study greedy-type algorithms such that at a greedy step we pick several dictionary elements contrary to a single dictionary element in standard greedy-type algorithms. We call such greedy algorithms {\it super greedy algorithms}. The…
We consider the Stochastic Matching problem, which is motivated by applications in kidney exchange and online dating. In this problem, we are given an undirected graph. Each edge is assigned a known, independent probability of existence and…
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…
The Rainbow k-Coloring problem asks whether the edges of a given graph can be colored in $k$ colors so that every pair of vertices is connected by a rainbow path, i.e., a path with all edges of different colors. Our main result states that…
It is an easy observation that a natural greedy approach yields a $\left(d-O(1)\right)$-factor approximation algorithm for the maximum induced matching problem in $d$-regular graphs. The only considerable and non-trivial improvement of this…
A rainbow path in an edge coloured graph is a path in which no two edges are coloured the same. A rainbow colouring of a connected graph G is a colouring of the edges of G such that every pair of vertices in G is connected by at least one…
We show that if a multigraph $G$ with maximum edge-multiplicity of at most $\frac{\sqrt{n}}{\log^2 n}$, is edge-coloured by $n$ colours such that each colour class is a disjoint union of cliques with at least $2n + o(n)$ vertices, then it…
For an edge-colored graph, a subgraph is called rainbow if all its edges have distinct colors. We show that if $G$ is an edge-colored graph of order $n$ and size $m$ using $c$ colors on its edges, and $m+c\geq \binom{n+1}{2}+k-1$ for a…
A graph $G$ whose edges are coloured (not necessarily properly) contains a full rainbow matching if there is a matching $M$ that contains exactly one edge of each colour. We refute several conjectures on matchings in hypergraphs and full…
In this paper, we consider a randomized greedy algorithm for independent sets in $r$-uniform $d$-regular hypergraphs $G$ on $n$ vertices with girth $g$. By analyzing the expected size of the independent sets generated by this algorithm, we…
The primary objective of graph pattern matching is to find all appearances of an input graph pattern query in a large data graph. Such appearances are called matches. In this paper, we are interested in finding matches of interaction…
We call an edge colouring of a graph G a rainbow colouring if every pair of vertices is joined by a rainbow path, i.e., a path where no two edges have the same colour. The minimum number of colours required for a rainbow colouring of the…
We perform an experimental study of algorithms for online bipartite matching under the known i.i.d. input model with integral types. In the last decade, there has been substantial effort in designing complex algorithms with the goal of…
Given a graph $G=(V,E)$ on $n$ vertices and an assignment of colours to its edges, a set of edges $S \subseteq E$ is said to be rainbow if edges from $S$ have pairwise different colours assigned to them. In this paper, we investigate…
Given an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ with a set of vertices $V$ and a set of edges $E$, a graph coloring problem involves finding a partition of the vertices into different independent sets. In this paper we present a new framework that…
Motivated by applications in online dating and kidney exchange, the stochastic matching problem was introduced by Chen, Immorlica, Karlin, Mahdian and Rudra (2009). They have proven a 4-approximation of a simple greedy strategy, but…
The paper considers the NP-hard graph vertex coloring problem, which differs from traditional problems in which it is required to color vertices with a given (or minimal) number of colors so that adjacent vertices have different colors. In…
Online bipartite matching with edge arrivals remained a major open question for a long time until a recent negative result by [Gamlath et al. FOCS 2019], who showed that no online policy is better than the straightforward greedy algorithm,…
In the design of greedy algorithms for the maximum cardinality matching problem the utilization of degree information when selecting the next edge is a well established and successful approach. We define the class of "degree sensitive"…
