Let G=(V,E) be a graph with f:V\to Z_+ a function assigning degree bounds to vertices. We present the first efficient algebraic algorithm to find an f-factor. The time is \tilde{O}(f(V)^{\omega}). More generally for graphs with integral…

Given a weighted graph $G(V,E)$ and $t \ge 1$, a subgraph $H$ is a \emph{$t$--spanner} of $G$ if the lengths of shortest paths in $G$ are preserved in $H$ up to a multiplicative factor of $t$. The \emph{subsetwise spanner} problem aims to…

We study the problem of maximizing the number of spanning trees in a connected graph by adding at most $k$ edges from a given candidate edge set. We give both algorithmic and hardness results for this problem: - We give a greedy algorithm…

Graph sketching is a powerful paradigm for analyzing graph structure via linear measurements introduced by Ahn, Guha, and McGregor (SODA'12) that has since found numerous applications in streaming, distributed computing, and massively…

Given a directed, weighted graph $G=(V,E)$ undergoing edge insertions, the incremental single-source shortest paths (SSSP) problem asks for the maintenance of approximate distances from a dedicated source $s$ while optimizing the total time…

Given a metric space $\mathcal{M}=(X,\delta)$, a weighted graph $G$ over $X$ is a metric $t$-spanner of $\mathcal{M}$ if for every $u,v \in X$, $\delta(u,v)\le d_G(u,v)\le t\cdot \delta(u,v)$, where $d_G$ is the shortest path metric in $G$.…

It is a survey on recent results in constructive sparse approximation. Three directions are discussed here: (1) Lebesgue-type inequalities for greedy algorithms with respect to a special class of dictionaries, (2) constructive sparse…

In practical machine learning systems, graph based data representation has been widely used in various learning paradigms, ranging from unsupervised clustering to supervised classification. Besides those applications with natural graph or…

Sparse approximation is important in many applications because of concise form of an approximant and good accuracy guarantees. The theory of compressed sensing, which proved to be very useful in the image processing and data sciences, is…

For a positive integer $t$ and a graph $G$, an additive $t$-spanner of $G$ is a spanning subgraph in which the distance between every pair of vertices is at most the original distance plus $t$. Minimum Additive $t$-Spanner Problem is to…

Preservers and additive spanners are sparse (hence cheap to store) subgraphs that preserve the distances between given pairs of nodes exactly or with some small additive error, respectively. Since real-world networks are prone to failures,…

Lightness is a fundamental parameter for Euclidean spanners; it is the ratio of the spanner weight to the weight of the minimum spanning tree of a finite set of points in $\mathbb{R}^d$. In a recent breakthrough, Le and Solomon (2019)…

We propose LIGHTNE 2.0, a cost-effective, scalable, automated, and high-quality network embedding system that scales to graphs with hundreds of billions of edges on a single machine. In contrast to the mainstream belief that distributed…

A $t$-spanner of an undirected $n$-vertex graph $G$ is a sparse subgraph $H$ of $G$ that preserves all pairwise distances between its vertices to within multiplicative factor $t$, also called the \emph{stretch}. We investigate the problem…

The maximum independent set problem is one of the most important problems in graph algorithms and has been extensively studied in the line of research on the worst-case analysis of exact algorithms for NP-hard problems. In the weighted…

We (nearly) settle the time complexity for computing vertex fault-tolerant (VFT) spanners with optimal sparsity (up to polylogarithmic factors). VFT spanners are sparse subgraphs that preserve distance information, up to a small…

Given a point set $P$ in the Euclidean space, a geometric $t$-spanner $G$ is a graph on $P$ such that for every pair of points, the shortest path in $G$ between those points is at most a factor $t$ longer than the Euclidean distance between…

We present a new randomized algorithm for computing the diameter of a weighted directed graph. The algorithm runs in $\Ot(M^{\w/(\w+1)}n^{(\w^2+3)/(\w+1)})$ time, where $\w < 2.376$ is the exponent of fast matrix multiplication, $n$ is the…

For an edge-weighted connected undirected graph, the minimum $k$-way cut problem is to find a subset of edges of minimum total weight whose removal separates the graph into $k$ connected components. The problem is NP-hard when $k$ is part…

We consider the question of speeding up classic graph algorithms with machine-learned predictions. In this model, algorithms are furnished with extra advice learned from past or similar instances. Given the additional information, we aim to…
