We present the first streaming algorithm for counting an arbitrary hypergraph $H$ of constant size in a massive hypergraph $G$. Our algorithm can handle both edge-insertions and edge-deletions, and is applicable for the distributed setting.…

We give an $\widetilde{O}(\sqrt{n})$-space single-pass $0.483$-approximation streaming algorithm for estimating the maximum directed cut size (Max-DICUT) in a directed graph on $n$ vertices. This improves over an $O(\log n)$-space $4/9 <…

Given an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ on $n$ vertices, $m$ edges, and an integer $t\ge 1$, a subgraph $(V,E_S)$, $E_S\subseteq E$ is called a $t$-spanner if for any pair of vertices $u,v \in V$, the distance between them in the subgraph is at…
