In wireless ad hoc or sensor networks, distributed node coloring is a fundamental problem closely related to establishing efficient communication through TDMA schedules. For networks with maximum degree Delta, a Delta + 1 coloring is the…
A celebrated theorem of Spencer states that for every set system $S_1,\dots, S_m \subseteq [n]$, there is a coloring of the ground set with $\{\pm 1\}$ with discrepancy $O(\sqrt{n\log(m/n+2)})$. We provide an algorithm to find such a…
The minimum degree algorithm is one of the most widely-used heuristics for reducing the cost of solving large sparse systems of linear equations. It has been studied for nearly half a century and has a rich history of bridging techniques…
Numerous sophisticated local algorithm were suggested in the literature for various fundamental problems. Notable examples are the MIS and $(\Delta+1)$-coloring algorithms by Barenboim and Elkin [6], by Kuhn [22], and by Panconesi and…
The celebrated Time Hierarchy Theorem for Turing machines states, informally, that more problems can be solved given more time. The extent to which a time hierarchy-type theorem holds in the distributed LOCAL model has been open for many…
Lokshtanov, Marx, and Saurabh SODA 2011 proved that there is no $(k-\epsilon)^{\operatorname{pw}(G)}\operatorname{poly}(n)$ time algorithm for deciding if an $n$-vertex graph $G$ with pathwidth $\operatorname{pw}(G)$ admits a proper vertex…
The {\em maximum cardinality} and {\em maximum weight matching} problems can be solved in time $\tilde{O}(m\sqrt{n})$, a bound that has resisted improvement despite decades of research. (Here $m$ and $n$ are the number of edges and…
Given a multiset $S$ of $n$ positive integers and a target integer $t$, the Subset Sum problem asks to determine whether there exists a subset of $S$ that sums up to $t$. The current best deterministic algorithm, by Koiliaris and Xu…
We consider the problems of maintaining an approximate maximum matching and an approximate minimum vertex cover in a dynamic graph undergoing a sequence of edge insertions/deletions. Starting with the seminal work of Onak and Rubinfeld…
Vertex connectivity a classic extensively-studied problem. Given an integer $k$, its goal is to decide if an $n$-node $m$-edge graph can be disconnected by removing $k$ vertices. Although a linear-time algorithm was postulated since 1974…
A class domination coloring (also called cd-Coloring or dominated coloring) of a graph is a proper coloring in which every color class is contained in the neighbourhood of some vertex. The minimum number of colors required for any…
Distributed vertex coloring is one of the classic problems and probably also the most widely studied problems in the area of distributed graph algorithms. We present a new randomized distributed vertex coloring algorithm for the standard…
In recent years, several powerful techniques have been developed to design {\em randomized} polynomial-space parameterized algorithms. In this paper, we introduce an enhancement of color coding to design deterministic polynomial-space…
Since the seminal result of Karger, Motwani, and Sudan, algorithms for approximate 3-coloring have primarily centered around SDP-based rounding. However, it is likely that important combinatorial or algebraic insights are needed in order to…
Reed [J.~Comb.~Theory B, 1999] showed that graphs of maximum degree $\Delta \geq 10^{14}$ without $\Delta$-cliques are $(\Delta-1)$-colorable. We design a one-pass semi-streaming algorithm for computing such a coloring. Additionally, we…
This paper improves and in two cases nearly settles, up to logarithmically lower-order factors, the deterministic complexity of some of the most central problems in distributed graph algorithms, which have been studied for over three…
This paper studies the online scheduling problem of minimizing total flow time for $n$ jobs on $m$ identical machines. A classical $\Omega(n)$ lower bound shows that no deterministic single-machine algorithm can beat the trivial greedy,…
Several recent results from dynamic and sublinear graph coloring are surveyed. This problem is widely studied and has motivating applications like network topology control, constraint satisfaction, and real-time resource scheduling. Graph…
Sublinear time algorithms represent a new paradigm in computing, where an algorithm must give some sort of an answer after inspecting only a small portion of the input. The most typical situation where sublinear time algorithms are…
Maintaining maximal independent set in dynamic graph is a fundamental open problem in graph theory and the first sublinear time deterministic algorithm was came up by Assadi, Onak, Schieber and Solomon(STOC'18), which achieves $O(m^{3/4})$…
