In this work, we present a fast distributed algorithm for local potential problems: these are graph problems where the task is to find a locally optimal solution where no node can unilaterally improve the utility in its local neighborhood…
This paper presents constant-time and near-constant-time distributed algorithms for a variety of problems in the congested clique model. We show how to compute a 3-ruling set in expected $O(\log \log \log n)$ rounds and using this, we…
In this paper we give a f-approximation algorithm for the minimum unweighted Vertex Cover problem with Hard Capacity constraints (VCHC) on f-hypergraphs. This problem generalizes standard vertex cover for which the best known approximation…
In Maximum $k$-Vertex Cover (Max $k$-VC), the input is an edge-weighted graph $G$ and an integer $k$, and the goal is to find a subset $S$ of $k$ vertices that maximizes the total weight of edges covered by $S$. Here we say that an edge is…
Recently, there has been increasing interest and progress in improvising the approximation algorithm for well-known NP-Complete problems, particularly the approximation algorithm for the Vertex-Cover problem. Here we have proposed a…
We present new deterministic algorithms for computing distributed weighted minimum weight cycle (MWC) in undirected and directed graphs and distributed weighted all nodes shortest cycle (ANSC) in directed graphs. Our algorithms for these…
We present a deterministic distributed algorithm that computes a $(2\Delta-1)$-edge-coloring, or even list-edge-coloring, in any $n$-node graph with maximum degree $\Delta$, in $O(\log^7 \Delta \log n)$ rounds. This answers one of the…
We present an algorithm for distributed networks to efficiently find a small vertex cut in the CONGEST model. Given a positive integer $\kappa$, our algorithm can, with high probability, either find $\kappa$ vertices whose removal…
We present a family of fast pseudo-approximation algorithms for the minimum balanced vertex separator problem in a graph. Given a graph $G=(V,E)$ with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, and a (constant) balance parameter $c\in(0,1/2)$, where $G$…
The densest subgraph problem, introduced in the 80s by Picard and Queyranne as well as Goldberg, is a classic problem in combinatorial optimization with a wide range of applications. The lowest outdegree orientation problem is known to be…
We give a fully dynamic algorithm maintaining a $(1-\varepsilon)$-approximate directed densest subgraph in $\tilde{O}(\log^3(n)/\varepsilon^6)$ amortized time or $\tilde{O}(\log^4(n)/\varepsilon^7)$ worst-case time per edge update (where…
We consider a new Steiner tree problem, called vertex-cover-weighted Steiner tree problem. This problem defines the weight of a Steiner tree as the minimum weight of vertex covers in the tree, and seeks a minimum-weight Steiner tree in a…
We provide the currently fastest randomized (1+epsilon)-approximation algorithm for the closest vector problem in the infinity norm. The running time of our method depends on the dimension n and the approximation guarantee epsilon by 2^O(n)…
This paper considers the distributed convex-concave minimax optimization under the second-order similarity. We propose stochastic variance-reduced optimistic gradient sliding (SVOGS) method, which takes the advantage of the finite-sum…
We present a simple deterministic single-pass $(2+\epsilon)$-approximation algorithm for the maximum weight matching problem in the semi-streaming model. This improves upon the currently best known approximation ratio of $(4+\epsilon)$. Our…
We study the time complexity of the discrete $k$-center problem and related (exact) geometric set cover problems when $k$ or the size of the cover is small. We obtain a plethora of new results: - We give the first subquadratic algorithm for…
In any attempt at designing an efficient algorithm for the minimum vertex cover problem, obtaining good upper and lower bounds for the vertex cover number could be crucial. In this article we present a modified greedy algorithm of…
A mixed dominating set of a graph $G = (V, E)$ is a mixed set $D$ of vertices and edges, such that for every edge or vertex, if it is not in $D$, then it is adjacent or incident to at least one vertex or edge in $D$. The mixed domination…
We give deterministic distributed $(1+\epsilon)$-approximation algorithms for Minimum Vertex Coloring and Maximum Independent Set on chordal graphs in the LOCAL model. Our coloring algorithm runs in $O(\frac{1}{\epsilon} \log n)$ rounds,…
Resolving an open question from 2006, we prove the existence of light-weight bounded-degree spanners for unit ball graphs in the metrics of bounded doubling dimension, and we design a simple $\mathcal{O}(\log^*n)$-round distributed…
