We give an algorithm that takes as input an $n$-vertex graph $G$ and an integer $k$, runs in time $2^{O(k^2)} n^{O(1)}$, and outputs a tree decomposition of $G$ of width at most $k$, if such a decomposition exists. This resolves the…
We study four-cycle counting in arbitrary order graph streams. We present a 3-pass algorithm for $(1+\varepsilon)$-approximating the number of four-cycles using $\widetilde{O}(m/\sqrt{T})$ space, where $m$ is the number of edges and $T$ the…
We revisit the algorithmic problem of finding a triangle in a graph (\textsc{Triangle Detection}), and examine its relation to other problems such as \textsc{3Sum}, \textsc{Independent Set}, and \textsc{Graph Coloring}. We obtain several…
We show that there exists a graph $G$ with $O(n)$ nodes, where any forest of $n$ nodes is a node-induced subgraph of $G$. Furthermore, for constant arboricity $k$, the result implies the existence of a graph with $O(n^k)$ nodes that…
We give the first linear-time counting algorithm for processes in anonymous 1-interval-connected dynamic networks with a leader. As a byproduct, we are able to compute in $3n$ rounds every function that is deterministically computable in…
The Massively Parallel Computation (MPC) model is an emerging model which distills core aspects of distributed and parallel computation. It has been developed as a tool to solve (typically graph) problems in systems where the input is…
The maximum/minimum bisection problems are, given an edge-weighted graph, to find a bipartition of the vertex set into two sets whose sizes differ by at most one, such that the total weight of edges between the two sets is…
The Circle Packing Theorem states that every planar graph can be represented as the tangency graph of a family of internally-disjoint circles. A well-known generalization is the Primal-Dual Circle Packing Theorem for 3-connected planar…
There has recently been much progress on exact algorithms for the (un)weighted graph (bi)partitioning problem using branch-and-bound and related methods. In this note we present and improve an easily computable, purely combinatorial lower…
By prior work, there is a distributed algorithm that finds a maximal fractional matching (maximal edge packing) in $O(\Delta)$ rounds, where $\Delta$ is the maximum degree of the graph. We show that this is optimal: there is no distributed…
Computing a directed minimum spanning tree, called arborescence, is a fundamental algorithmic problem, although not as common as its undirected counterpart. In 1967, Edmonds discussed an elegant solution. It was refined to run in…
A trie $\mathcal{T}$ is a rooted tree such that each edge is labeled by a single character from the alphabet, and the labels of out-going edges from the same node are mutually distinct. Given a trie $\mathcal{T}$ with $n$ edges, we show how…
In this work, we present a constant-round algorithm for the $2$-ruling set problem in the Congested Clique model. As a direct consequence, we obtain a constant round algorithm in the MPC model with linear space-per-machine and optimal total…
We describe a framework for counting and enumerating various types of crossing-free geometric graphs on a planar point set. The framework generalizes ideas of Alvarez and Seidel, who used them to count triangulations in time $O(2^nn^2)$…
Triangle counting is an important problem in graph mining. Clustering coefficients of vertices and the transitivity ratio of the graph are two metrics often used in complex network analysis. Furthermore, triangles have been used…
Triangle strips have been widely used for efficient rendering. It is NP-complete to test whether a given triangulated model can be represented as a single triangle strip, so many heuristics have been proposed to partition models into few…
We describe a framework for maintaining forest algebra representations that are of logarithmic height for unranked trees. Such representations can be computed in O(n) time and updated in O(log(n)) time. The framework is of potential…
A typical census of 3-manifolds contains all manifolds (under various constraints) that can be triangulated with at most n tetrahedra. Al- though censuses are useful resources for mathematicians, constructing them is difficult: the best…
We improve the estimates of the subgraph probabilities in a random regular graph. Using the improved results, we further improve the limiting distribution of the number of triangles in random regular graphs.
Triangle counting in hypergraph streams, including both hyper-vertex and hyper-edge triangles, is a fundamental problem in hypergraph analytics, with broad applications. However, existing methods face two key limitations: (i) an incomplete…
