We present a streaming algorithm for the vertex connectivity problem in dynamic streams with a (nearly) optimal space bound: for any $n$-vertex graph $G$ and any integer $k \geq 1$, our algorithm with high probability outputs whether or not…

In the matroid center problem, which generalizes the $k$-center problem, we need to pick a set of centers that is an independent set of a matroid with rank $r$. We study this problem in streaming, where elements of the ground set arrive in…
A semi-streaming algorithm in dynamic graph streams processes any $n$-vertex graph by making one or multiple passes over a stream of insertions and deletions to edges of the graph and using $O(n \cdot \mbox{polylog}(n))$ space.…

There has been a recent explosion in the size of stored data, partially due to advances in storage technology, and partially due to the growing popularity of cloud-computing and the vast quantities of data generated. This motivates the need…
We consider streaming over a peer-to-peer network with homogeneous nodes in which a single source broadcasts a data stream to all the users in the system. Peers are allowed to enter or leave the system (adversarially) arbitrarily. Previous…

We revisit the $k$-mismatch problem in the streaming model on a pattern of length $m$ and a streaming text of length $n$, both over a size-$\sigma$ alphabet. The current state-of-the-art algorithm for the streaming $k$-mismatch problem, by…
Generative conversational interfaces powered by large language models (LLMs) typically stream output token-by-token at a rate determined by computational budget, often neglecting actual human reading speeds and the cognitive load associated…
Modern scientific instruments generate data at rates that increasingly exceed local compute capabilities and, when paired with the staging and I/O overheads of file-based transfers, also render file-based use of remote HPC resources…
We study random order semi-streaming algorithms for submodular maximization under a wide range of combinatorial constraint classes, including matroids, matroid $p$-parity, $p$-exchange systems and $p$-systems. For most of these classes of…
Set cover, over a universe of size $n$, may be modelled as a data-streaming problem, where the $m$ sets that comprise the instance are to be read one by one. A semi-streaming algorithm is allowed only $O(n\, \mathrm{poly}\{\log n, \log…

We consider the problem of tracking with small relative error an integer function $f(n)$ defined by a distributed update stream $f'(n)$. Existing streaming algorithms with worst-case guarantees for this problem assume $f(n)$ to be monotone;…
