The question of what can be computed, and how efficiently, are at the core of computer science. Not surprisingly, in distributed systems and networking research, an equally fundamental question is what can be computed in a…
An $f$-edge (or vertex) connectivity certificate is a sparse subgraph that maintains connectivity under the failure of at most $f$ edges (or vertices). It is well known that any $n$-vertex graph admits an $f$-edge (or vertex) connectivity…
(Hyper)Graph decomposition is a family of problems that aim to break down large (hyper)graphs into smaller sub(hyper)graphs for easier analysis. The importance of this lies in its ability to enable efficient computation on large and complex…
Graph rigidity theory studies the capability of a graph embedded in the Euclidean space to constrain its global geometric shape via local constraints among nodes and edges, and has been widely exploited in network localization and formation…
Conventional network data has largely focused on pairwise interactions between two entities, yet multi-way interactions among multiple entities have been frequently observed in real-life hypergraph networks. In this article, we propose a…
Graph embedding is a transformation of nodes of a network into a set of vectors. A good embedding should capture the underlying graph topology and structure, node-to-node relationship, and other relevant information about the graph, its…
Despite the exploding interest in graph neural networks there has been little effort to verify and improve their robustness. This is even more alarming given recent findings showing that they are extremely vulnerable to adversarial attacks…
For a fixed graph $H$, the $H$-IS-Deletion problem asks, given a graph $G$, for the minimum size of a set $S \subseteq V(G)$ such that $G\setminus S$ does not contain $H$ as an induced subgraph. Motivated by previous work about hitting…
Locally-biased graph algorithms are algorithms that attempt to find local or small-scale structure in a large data graph. In some cases, this can be accomplished by adding some sort of locality constraint and calling a traditional graph…
Hypergraphs, increasingly utilised for modelling complex and diverse relationships in modern networks, gain much attention representing intricate higher-order interactions. Among various challenges, cohesive subgraph discovery is one of the…
Many systems can be described using graphs, or networks. Detecting communities in these networks can provide information about the underlying structure and functioning of the original systems. Yet this detection is a complex task and a…
Consider a setting where possibly sensitive information sent over a path in a network is visible to every {neighbor} of the path, i.e., every neighbor of some node on the path, thus including the nodes on the path itself. The exposure of a…
An undirected graph G is called a VPT graph if it is the vertex intersection graph of a family of paths in a tree. The class of graphs which admit a VPT representation in a host tree with maximum degree at most h is denoted by [h,2,1]. The…
Introduced by Korman, Kutten, and Peleg (PODC 2005), a proof labeling scheme (PLS) is a distributed verification system dedicated to evaluating if a given configured graph satisfies a certain property. It involves a centralized prover,…
Network inference is the process of deciding what is the true unknown graph underlying a set of interactions between nodes. There is a vast literature on the subject, but most known methods have an important drawback: the inferred graph is…
A graph $G$ is \emph{locally irregular} if no two of its adjacent vertices have the same degree. In [Fioravantes et al. Complexity of finding maximum locally irregular induced subgraph. {\it SWAT}, 2022], the authors introduced and studied…
We study the complexity of fundamental distributed graph problems in the recently popular setting where information about the input graph is available to the nodes before the start of the computation. We focus on the most common such…
The local minimum degree of a graph is the minimum degree reached by means of a series of local complementations. In this paper, we investigate on this quantity which plays an important role in quantum computation and quantum error…
Nonparametric detection of existence of an anomalous structure over a network is investigated. Nodes corresponding to the anomalous structure (if one exists) receive samples generated by a distribution q, which is different from a…
A graph $H$ is said to be an induced minor of a graph $G$ if $H$ can be obtained from $G$ by a sequence of vertex deletions and edge contractions. Equivalently, $H$ is an induced minor of $G$ if there exists an induced minor model of $H$ in…
