We spot a hole in the area of succinct data structures for graph classes from a universe of size at most $n^n$. Very often, the input graph is labeled by the user in an arbitrary and easy-to-use way, and the data structure for the graph…

In this paper we study the problem of maintaining the strongly connected components of a graph in the presence of failures. In particular, we show that given a directed graph $G=(V,E)$ with $n=|V|$ and $m=|E|$, and an integer value $k\geq…

Reachability in hypergraphs is essential for modeling complex groupwise interactions in real-world applications such as co-authorship, social network, and biological analysis, where relationships go beyond pairwise interactions. In this…

Fault tolerant distance preservers (spanners) are sparse subgraphs that preserve (approximate) distances between given pairs of vertices under edge or vertex failures. So-far, these structures have been studied mainly from a centralized…

In this paper, we study the Minimum Weight Pairwise Distance Preservers (MWPDP) problem. Consider a positively weighted undirected/directed connected graph $G = (V, E, c)$ and a subset $P$ of pairs of vertices, also called demand pairs. A…

We study the almost-sure reachability problem in a distributed system obtained as the asynchronous composition of N copies (called processes) of the same automaton (called protocol), that can communicate via a shared register with finite…

We propose two one-pass streaming algorithms for the $\mathcal{NP}$-hard hypergraph matching problem. The first algorithm stores a small subset of potential matching edges in a stack using dual variables to select edges. It has an…

Network (or graph) sparsification compresses a graph by removing inessential edges. By reducing the data volume, it accelerates or even facilitates many downstream analyses. Still, the accuracy of many sparsification methods, with…

A cut sparsifier is a reweighted subgraph that maintains the weights of the cuts of the original graph up to a multiplicative factor of $(1\pm\epsilon)$. This paper considers computing cut sparsifiers of weighted graphs of size $O(n\log…

A temporal graph is an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ along with a function that assigns a time-label to each edge in $E$. A path in $G$ with non-decreasing time-labels is called temporal path and the distance from $u$ to $v$ is the minimum…

A $t$-spanner of a graph $G$ is a subgraph $H$ in which all distances are preserved up to a multiplicative $t$ factor. A classical result of Alth\"ofer et al. is that for every integer $k$ and every graph $G$, there is a $(2k-1)$-spanner of…

We study treewidth sparsifiers. Informally, given a graph $G$ of treewidth $k$, a treewidth sparsifier $H$ is a minor of $G$, whose treewidth is close to $k$, $|V(H)|$ is small, and the maximum vertex degree in $H$ is bounded. Treewidth…

In several applications in distributed systems, an important design criterion is ensuring that the network is sparse, i.e., does not contain too many edges, while achieving reliable connectivity. Sparsity ensures communication overhead…

Constructing a sparse spanning subgraph is a fundamental primitive in graph theory. In this paper, we study this problem in the Centralized Local model, where the goal is to decide whether an edge is part of the spanning subgraph by…

If $G$ is a graph then a subgraph $H$ is $isometric$ if, for every pair of vertices $u,v$ of $H$, we have $d_H(u,v) = d_G(u,v)$ where $d$ is the distance function. We say a graph $G$ is $distance\ preserving\ (dp)$ if it has an isometric…

We introduce a novel measure for quantifying the error in input predictions. The error is based on a minimum-cost hyperedge cover in a suitably defined hypergraph and provides a general template which we apply to online graph problems. The…

Finding patterns in graphs is a fundamental problem in databases and data mining. In many applications, graphs are temporal and evolve over time, so we are interested in finding durable patterns, such as triangles and paths, which persist…
