Linear system solving is one of the main workhorses in applied mathematics. Recently, theoretical computer scientists have contributed sophisticated algorithms for solving linear systems with symmetric diagonally dominant matrices (a class…
We study distributed algorithms built around minor-based vertex sparsifiers, and give the first algorithm in the CONGEST model for solving linear systems in graph Laplacian matrices to high accuracy. Our Laplacian solver has a round…
This paper investigates the behavior of the Min-Sum message passing scheme to solve systems of linear equations in the Laplacian matrices of graphs and to compute electric flows. Voltage and flow problems involve the minimization of…
We give an $m^{1+o(1)}\beta^{o(1)}$-time algorithm for generating a uniformly random spanning tree in an undirected, weighted graph with max-to-min weight ratio $\beta$. We also give an $m^{1+o(1)}\epsilon^{-o(1)}$-time algorithm for…
In this paper, we set forth a new algorithm for generating approximately uniformly random spanning trees in undirected graphs. We show how to sample from a distribution that is within a multiplicative $(1+\delta)$ of uniform in expected…
Problems from graph drawing, spectral clustering, network flow and graph partitioning can all be expressed in terms of graph Laplacian matrices. There are a variety of practical approaches to solving these problems in serial. However, as…
Multilayer networks provide a more comprehensive framework for exploring real-world and engineering systems than traditional single-layer networks, consisting of multiple interacting networks. However, despite significant research in…
In this paper we provide an $O(m (\log \log n)^{O(1)} \log(1/\epsilon))$-expected time algorithm for solving Laplacian systems on $n$-node $m$-edge graphs, improving improving upon the previous best expected runtime of $O(m \sqrt{\log n}…
We introduce a new approach to computing an approximately maximum s-t flow in a capacitated, undirected graph. This flow is computed by solving a sequence of electrical flow problems. Each electrical flow is given by the solution of a…
We show how to solve directed Laplacian systems in nearly-linear time. Given a linear system in an $n \times n$ Eulerian directed Laplacian with $m$ nonzero entries, we show how to compute an $\epsilon$-approximate solution in time $O(m…
In this paper, we study the problem of finding the least square solutions of over-determined linear algebraic equations over networks in a distributed manner. Each node has access to one of the linear equations and holds a dynamic state. We…
Decentralized optimization strategies are helpful for various applications, from networked estimation to distributed machine learning. This paper studies finite-sum minimization problems described over a network of nodes and proposes a…
Solving linear programs is often a challenging task in distributed settings. While there are good algorithms for solving packing and covering linear programs in a distributed manner (Kuhn et al.~2006), this is essentially the only class of…
We present efficient algorithms for approximately solving systems of linear equations in $1$-Laplacians of well-shaped simplicial complexes up to high precision. $1$-Laplacians, or higher-dimensional Laplacians, generalize graph Laplacians…
In this paper, we propose distributed solvers for systems of linear equations given by symmetric diagonally dominant M-matrices based on the parallel solver of Spielman and Peng. We propose two versions of the solvers, where in the first,…
In this article, we present the first deterministic directed Laplacian L systems solver that runs in time almost-linear in the number of non-zero entries of L. Previous reductions imply the first deterministic almost-linear time algorithms…
This paper proposes distributed algorithms to solve robust convex optimization (RCO) when the constraints are affected by nonlinear uncertainty. We adopt a scenario approach by randomly sampling the uncertainty set. To facilitate the…
In this paper, we develop a novel weighted Laplacian method, which is partially inspired by the theory of graph Laplacian, to study recent popular graph problems, such as multilevel graph partitioning and balanced minimum cut problem, in a…
We study non-convex distributed optimization problems where a set of agents collaboratively solve a separable optimization problem that is distributed over a time-varying network. The existing methods to solve these problems rely on (at…
Diffusion is a fundamental graph procedure and has been a basic building block in a wide range of theoretical and empirical applications such as graph partitioning and semi-supervised learning on graphs. In this paper, we study…
