Graph matching aims to find the latent vertex correspondence between two edge-correlated graphs and has found numerous applications across different fields. In this paper, we study a seeded graph matching problem, which assumes that a set…

We consider the problem of detecting whether a power-law inhomogeneous random graph contains a geometric community, and we frame this as an hypothesis testing problem. More precisely, we assume that we are given a sample from an unknown…

Consider two networks on overlapping, non-identical vertex sets. Given vertices of interest in the first network, we seek to identify the corresponding vertices, if any exist, in the second network. While in moderately sized networks graph…

Given a set D of nonnegative integers, we derive the asymptotic number of graphs with a givenvnumber of vertices, edges, and such that the degree of every vertex is in D. This generalizes existing results, such as the enumeration of graphs…

We describe and analyse a simple greedy algorithm \2G\ that finds a good 2-matching $M$ in the random graph $G=G_{n,cn}^{\d\geq 3}$ when $c\geq 15$. A 2-matching is a spanning subgraph of maximum degree two and $G$ is drawn uniformly from…

We study graph matching between two correlated networks in the almost fully seeded regime, where all but a vanishing fraction of vertex correspondences are revealed. Concretely, we consider the correlated stochastic block model and assume…

The problem of finding the vertex correspondence between two noisy graphs with different number of vertices where the smaller graph is still large has many applications in social networks, neuroscience, and computer vision. We propose a…

We present the first near-linear work and poly-logarithmic depth algorithm for computing a minimum cut in a graph, while previous parallel algorithms with poly-logarithmic depth required at least quadratic work in the number of vertices. In…

We present a fully dynamic algorithm for maintaining approximate maximum weight matching in general weighted graphs. The algorithm maintains a matching ${\cal M}$ whose weight is at least $1/8 M^{*}$ where $M^{*}$ is the weight of the…

We consider the task of few shot link prediction on graphs. The goal is to learn from a distribution over graphs so that a model is able to quickly infer missing edges in a new graph after a small amount of training. We show that current…
