We present improved results for approximating maximum-weight independent set ($\MaxIS$) in the CONGEST and LOCAL models of distributed computing. Given an input graph, let $n$ and $\Delta$ be the number of nodes and maximum degree,…
We design new deterministic CONGEST approximation algorithms for \emph{maximum weight independent set (MWIS)} in \emph{sparse graphs}. As our main results, we obtain new $\Delta(1+\epsilon)$-approximation algorithms as well as algorithms…
The maximum independent set problem is a classic optimization problem that has also been studied quite intensively in the distributed setting. While the problem is hard to approximate in general, there are good approximation algorithms…
We investigate the distributed complexity of maximal matching and maximal independent set (MIS) in hypergraphs in the LOCAL model. A maximal matching of a hypergraph $H=(V_H,E_H)$ is a maximal disjoint set $M\subseteq E_H$ of hyperedges and…
The Maximal Independent Set (MIS) problem is one of the basics in the study of locality in distributed graph algorithms. This paper presents an extremely simple randomized algorithm providing a near-optimal local complexity for this…
We develop a general deterministic distributed method for locally rounding fractional solutions of graph problems for which the analysis can be broken down into analyzing pairs of vertices. Roughly speaking, the method can transform…
We present deterministic distributed algorithms for computing approximate maximum cardinality matchings and approximate maximum weight matchings. Our algorithm for the unweighted case computes a matching whose size is at least $(1-\eps)$…
We present randomized distributed algorithms for the maximal independent set problem (MIS) that, while keeping the time complexity nearly matching the best known, reduce the energy complexity substantially. These algorithms work in the…
We describe approximation algorithms in Linial's classic LOCAL model of distributed computing to find maximum-weight matchings in a hypergraph of rank $r$. Our main result is a deterministic algorithm to generate a matching which is an…
Maximal Independent Set (MIS) is one of the fundamental and most well-studied problems in distributed graph algorithms. Even after four decades of intensive research, the best-known (randomized) MIS algorithms have $O(\log{n})$ round…
We present a time-optimal deterministic distributed algorithm for approximating a minimum weight vertex cover in hypergraphs of rank $f$. This problem is equivalent to the Minimum Weight Set Cover Problem in which the frequency of every…
The Maximum Weighted Independent Set (MWIS) problem, which considers a graph with weights assigned to nodes and seeks to discover the "heaviest" independent set, that is, a set of nodes with maximum total weight so that no two nodes in the…
We present $O(\log\log n)$-round algorithms in the Massively Parallel Computation (MPC) model, with $\tilde{O}(n)$ memory per machine, that compute a maximal independent set, a $1+\epsilon$ approximation of maximum matching, and a…
We present a time-optimal deterministic distributed algorithm for approximating a minimum weight vertex cover in hypergraphs of rank $f$. This problem is equivalent to the Minimum Weight Set Cover problem in which the frequency of every…
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…
$ \renewcommand{\tilde}{\widetilde} $We present an $\tilde{O}(\log^2 n)$ round deterministic distributed algorithm for the maximal independent set problem. By known reductions, this round complexity extends also to maximal matching,…
This paper presents a near-optimal distributed approximation algorithm for the minimum-weight connected dominating set (MCDS) problem. The presented algorithm finds an $O(\log n)$ approximation in $\tilde{O}(D+\sqrt{n})$ rounds, where $D$…
We present a deterministic distributed $2$-approximation algorithm for the Minimum Weight Vertex Cover problem in the CONGEST model whose round complexity is $O(\log n \log \Delta / \log^2 \log \Delta)$. This improves over the currently…
We present improved deterministic distributed algorithms for a number of well-studied matching problems, which are simpler, faster, more accurate, and/or more general than their known counterparts. The common denominator of these results is…
We give a maximal independent set (MIS) algorithm that runs in $O(\log \log \Delta)$ rounds in the congested clique model, where $\Delta$ is the maximum degree of the input graph. This improves upon the $O(\frac{\log(\Delta) \cdot \log \log…
