We give a new randomized distributed algorithm for $(\Delta+1)$-coloring in the LOCAL model, running in $O(\sqrt{\log \Delta})+ 2^{O(\sqrt{\log \log n})}$ rounds in a graph of maximum degree~$\Delta$. This implies that the…
In vertex recoloring, we are given $n$ vertices with their initial coloring, and edges arrive in an online fashion. The algorithm must maintain a valid coloring by recoloring vertices, at a cost. The problem abstracts a scenario of job…
The classic greedy coloring (first-fit) algorithm considers the vertices of an input graph $G$ in a given order and assigns the first available color to each vertex $v$ in $G$. In the {\sc Grundy Coloring} problem, the task is to find an…
We initiate the study of approximate maximum matching in the vertex partition model, for graphs subject to dynamic changes. We assume that the $n$ vertices of the graph are partitioned among $k$ players, who execute a distributed algorithm…
In this paper we study the dynamic versions of two basic graph problems: Minimum Dominating Set and its variant Minimum Connected Dominating Set. For those two problems, we present algorithms that maintain a solution under edge insertions…
A class domination coloring (also called cd-Coloring or dominated coloring) of a graph is a proper coloring in which every color class is contained in the neighbourhood of some vertex. The minimum number of colors required for any…
We consider the classical Minimum Balanced Cut problem: given a graph $G$, compute a partition of its vertices into two subsets of roughly equal volume, while minimizing the number of edges connecting the subsets. We present the first {\em…
We study the awake complexity of graph problems that belong to the class O-LOCAL, which includes a subset of problems solvable by sequential greedy algorithms, such as $(\Delta+1)$-coloring and maximal independent set. It is known from…
In this paper, we present improved algorithms for the $(\Delta+1)$ (vertex) coloring problem in the Congested-Clique model of distributed computing. In this model, the input is a graph on $n$ nodes, initially each node knows only its…
Distributed vertex coloring is one of the classic problems and probably also the most widely studied problems in the area of distributed graph algorithms. We present a new randomized distributed vertex coloring algorithm for the standard…
Combinatorial optimization problems near algorithmic phase transitions represent a fundamental challenge for both classical algorithms and machine learning approaches. Among them, graph coloring stands as a prototypical constraint…
In the Coloured Clustering problem, we wish to colour vertices of an edge coloured graph to produce as many stable edges as possible, i.e., edges with the same colour as their ends. In this paper, we reveal that the problem is in fact a…
A strong edge-colouring of a graph is a proper edge-colouring where each colour class induces a matching. It is known that every planar graph with maximum degree $\Delta$ has a strong edge-colouring with at most $4\Delta+4$ colours. We show…
Drawings of non-planar graphs always result in edge crossings. When there are many edges crossing at small angles, it is often difficult to follow these edges, because of the multiple visual paths resulted from the crossings that slow down…
A (fully) dynamic graph algorithm is a data structure that supports edge insertions, edge deletions, and answers certain queries that are specific to the problem under consideration. There has been a lot of research on dynamic algorithms…
We revisit asynchronous computing in networks of crash-prone processes, under the asynchronous variant of the standard LOCAL model, recently introduced by Fraigniaud et al. [DISC 2022]. We focus on the vertex coloring problem, and our…
The paper presents techniques to derive upper bounds for the mean time to recover from a single fault for self-stabilizing algorithms in the message passing model. For a new Delta+1-coloring algorithm we analytically derive a bound for the…
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…
The problem of efficiently coloring $3$-colorable graphs with few colors has received much attention on both the algorithmic and inapproximability fronts. We consider exponential time approximations, in which given a parameter $r$, we aim…
A distributed algorithm is self-stabilizing if after faults and attacks hit the system and place it in some arbitrary global state, the systems recovers from this catastrophic situation without external intervention in finite time.…
