In this paper we consider the fundamental problem of approximating the diameter $D$ of directed or undirected graphs. In a seminal paper, Aingworth, Chekuri, Indyk and Motwani [SIAM J. Comput. 1999] presented an algorithm that computes in…
We prove that there is a function $f$ such that every graph with no $K$-fat $K_4$ minor is $f(K)$-quasi-isometric to a graph with no $K_4$ minor. This solves the $K_4$-case of a general conjecture of Georgakopoulos and Papasoglu. Our proof…
We study fundamental graph parameters such as the Diameter and Radius in directed graphs, when distances are measured using a somewhat unorthodox but natural measure: the distance between $u$ and $v$ is the minimum of the shortest path…
The minimum cut problem in an undirected and weighted graph $G$ is to find the minimum total weight of a set of edges whose removal disconnects $G$. We completely characterize the quantum query and time complexity of the minimum cut problem…
A countable, bounded degree graph is almost finite if it has a tiling with isomorphic copies of finitely many F\o lner sets, and we call it strongly almost finite, if the tiling can be randomized so that the probability that a vertex is on…
We prove that an admissible manifold (as defined by Apostolov, Calderbank, Gauduchon and T{\o}nnesen-Friedman), arising from a base with a local K\"ahler product of constant scalar curvature metrics, admits Generalized Quasi-Einstein…
Kostochka and Yancey resolved a famous conjecture of Ore on the asymptotic density of $k$-critical graphs by proving that every $k$-critical graph $G$ satisfies $|E(G)| \geq (\frac{k}{2} - \frac{1}{k-1})|V(G)| - \frac{k(k-3)}{2(k-1)}$. The…
We prove a pointwise ergodic theorem for quasi-probability-measure-preserving (quasi-pmp) locally countable measurable graphs, equivalently, Schreier graphs of quasi-pmp actions of countable groups. For ergodic graphs, the theorem gives an…
We give a survey of basic results on the cut norm and cut metric for graphons (and sometimes more general kernels), with emphasis on the equivalence problem. The main results are not new, but we add various technical complements, and a new…
In their seminal work (\cite{CC}, \cite{CC2}), Chen and Cheng proved apriori estimates for the constant scalar curvature metrics on compact K\"ahler manifolds. They also proved $C^{3,\alpha}$ estimate for the potential of the \ka metrics…
The Fan-Raspaud Conjecture states that every bridgeless cubic graph has three 1-factors with empty intersection. A weaker one than this conjecture is that every bridgeless cubic graph has two 1-factors and one join with empty intersection.…
Succinct representations of a graph have been objects of central study in computer science for decades. In this paper, we study the operation called \emph{Distance Preserving Graph Contractions}, which was introduced by Bernstein et al.…
We study permanence results for almost quasi-isometries, the maps arising from the Gromov construction of finitely generated random groups that contain expanders (and hence that are not C*-exact). We show that the image of a sequence of…
Erd\H{o}s and Gy\'arf\'as conjectured in 1994 that every graph with minimum degree at least 3 has a cycle of length a power of 2. In 2022, Gao and Shan (Graphs and Combinatorics) proved that the conjecture is true for $P_8$-free graphs,…
We study the Densest At-Least-$k$-Subgraph (DAL$k$S) problem, in which we are given an undirected graph $G$ and an integer $k$, and the goal is to find a subgraph of $G$ with at least $k$ vertices with maximum density. The best-known…
The paper investigates the (non)existence of compact quotients, by a discrete subgroup, of the homogeneous almost-complex strongly-pseudoconvex manifolds disconvered and classified by Gaussier-Sukhov and K.-H. Lee.
In 2016, a breakthrough result of Chechik and Wulff-Nilsen [SODA '16] established that every $n$-node graph $G$ has a $(1+\varepsilon)(2k-1)$-spanner of lightness $O_{\varepsilon}(n^{1/k})$, and recent followup work by Le and Solomon [STOC…
Using coupling techniques based on Stein's method for probability approximation, we revisit classical variance bounding inequalities of Chernoff, Cacoullos, Chen and Klaassen. Taking advantage of modern coupling techniques allows us to…
We use the theory of graph limits to study several quasi-random properties, mainly dealing with various versions of hereditary subgraph counts. The main idea is to transfer the properties of (sequences of) graphs to properties of graphons,…
Building on work of Stolz, we prove for integers $0 \le d \le 3$ and $k>232$ that the boundaries of $(k-1)$-connected, almost closed $(2k+d)$-manifolds also bound parallelizable manifolds. Away from finitely many dimensions, this settles…
