Many problems on data streams have been studied at two extremes of difficulty: either allowing randomized algorithms, in the static setting (where they should err with bounded probability on the worst case stream); or when only…

Finding a maximum independent set is a fundamental NP-hard problem that is used in many real-world applications. Given an unweighted graph, this problem asks for a maximum cardinality set of pairwise non-adjacent vertices. Some of the most…

An edge of a graph dominates itself along with any edge that shares an endpoint with it. An efficient edge dominating set (also called a dominating induced matching, DIM) is a subset of edges such that each edge of the graph is dominated by…

We study the algorithmic task of finding a large independent set in a sparse Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi random graph with $n$ vertices and average degree $d$. The maximum independent set is known to have size $(2 \log d / d)n$ in the double limit…
