Graph spanners are sparse subgraphs that faithfully preserve the distances in the original graph up to small stretch. Spanner have been studied extensively as they have a wide range of applications ranging from distance oracles, labeling…

In this note, we present a simple algorithm for computing a \emph{$k$-connectivity certificate} in dynamic graph streams. Our algorithm uses $O(n \log^2 n \cdot \max\{k, \log n \log k\})$ bits of space which improves upon the $O(kn \log^3…

Approximating quantiles and distributions over streaming data has been studied for roughly two decades now. Recently, Karnin, Lang, and Liberty proposed the first asymptotically optimal algorithm for doing so. This manuscript complements…

In the graph stream model of computation, an algorithm processes the edges of an input graph in one or more sequential passes while using a memory sublinear in the input size. This model poses significant challenges for constructing long…

Spanner constructions focus on the initial design of the network. However, networks tend to improve over time. In this paper, we focus on the improvement step. Given a graph and a budget $k$, which $k$ edges do we add to the graph to…
