Let D be a directed graph with vertex set V and order n. An anti-directed hamiltonian cycle H in D is a hamiltonian cycle in the graph underlying D such that no pair of consecutive arcs in H form a directed path in D. An anti-directed…

\ac{fl} proposed a distributed \ac{ml} framework where every distributed worker owns a complete copy of global model and their own data. The training is occurred locally, which assures no direct transmission of training data. However, the…

The unit interval vertex deletion problem asks for a set of at most $k$ vertices whose deletion from an $n$-vertex graph makes it a unit interval graph. We develop an $O(k^4)$-vertex kernel for the problem, significantly improving the…

Despite recent theoretical progress on the non-convex optimization of two-layer neural networks, it is still an open question whether gradient descent on neural networks without unnatural modifications can achieve better sample complexity…

For a fixed graph $H$, the $H$-SUBGRAPH HITTING problem consists in deleting the minimum number of vertices from an input graph to obtain a graph without any occurrence of $H$ as a subgraph. This problem can be seen as a generalization of…

The feedback arc (vertex) set problem, shortened FASP (FVSP), is to transform a given multi digraph $G=(V,E)$ into an acyclic graph by deleting as few arcs (vertices) as possible. Due to the results of Richard M. Karp in 1972 it is one of…

In the Directed Disjoint Paths problem, we are given a digraph $D$ and a set of requests $\{(s_1, t_1), \ldots, (s_k, t_k)\}$, and the task is to find a collection of pairwise vertex-disjoint paths $\{P_1, \ldots, P_k\}$ such that each…

Let $D$ be a digraph. We call a subset $N$ of $V(D)$ $k$-independent if for every pair of vertices $u,v \in N$, $d(u,v) \geq k$; and we call it $\ell$-absorbent if for every vertex $u \in V(D) \setminus N$, there exists $v \in N$ such that…

Eigenvectors of the Laplacian of a cycle graph exhibit the sinusoidal characteristics of the standard DFT basis, and signals defined on such graphs are amenable to linear shift invariant (LSI) operations. In this paper we propose to reduce…

A subgraph $T$ of a digraph $D$ is an {\em out-branching} if $T$ is an oriented spanning tree with only one vertex of in-degree zero (called the {\em root}). The vertices of $T$ of out-degree zero are {\em leaves}. In the {\sc Directed…

Feedback Vertex Set is a classic combinatorial optimization problem that asks for a minimum set of vertices in a given graph whose deletion makes the graph acyclic. From the point of view of parameterized algorithms and fixed-parameter…

We improve the running time of the general algorithmic technique known as Baker's approach (1994) on H-minor-free graphs from O(n^{f(|H|)}) to O(f(|H|) n^{O(1)}). The numerous applications include e.g. a 2-approximation for coloring and…

The problem of labeled graph generation is gaining attention in the Deep Learning community. The task is challenging due to the sparse and discrete nature of graph spaces. Several approaches have been proposed in the literature, most of…

In this paper, we develop a new parameterized algorithm for the {\sc Independent Feedback Vertex Set} (IFVS) problem. Given a graph $G=(V,E)$, the goal of the problem is to determine whether there exists a vertex subset $F\subseteq V$ such…

We study nonparametric regression by an over-parameterized two-layer neural network trained by gradient descent (GD) in this paper. We show that, if the neural network is trained by GD with early stopping, then the trained network renders a…
