We describe a simple deterministic $O( \varepsilon^{-1} \log \Delta)$ round distributed algorithm for $(2\alpha+1)(1 + \varepsilon)$ approximation of minimum weighted dominating set on graphs with arboricity at most $\alpha$. Here $\Delta$…
We provide a $O(\log^6 \log n)$-round randomized algorithm for distance-2 coloring in CONGEST with $\Delta^2+1$ colors. For $\Delta\gg\operatorname{poly}\log n$, this improves exponentially on the $O(\log\Delta+\operatorname{poly}\log\log…
In the Colored Clustering problem, one is asked to cluster edge-colored (hyper-)graphs whose colors represent interaction types. More specifically, the goal is to select as many edges as possible without choosing two edges that share an…
The gap between the known randomized and deterministic local distributed algorithms underlies arguably the most fundamental and central open question in distributed graph algorithms. In this paper, we develop a generic and clean recipe for…
Network decomposition is a central concept in the study of distributed graph algorithms. We present the first polylogarithmic-round deterministic distributed algorithm with small messages that constructs a strong-diameter network…
In this paper, we revisit the online recoloring problem introduced recently by Azar et al. In online recoloring, there is a fixed set $V$ of $n$ vertices and an initial coloring $c_0: V\rightarrow [k]$ for some $k\in \mathbb{Z}^{>0}$. Under…
The problem of (vertex) $(\Delta+1)$-coloring a graph of maximum degree $\Delta$ has been extremely well-studied over the years in various settings and models. Surprisingly, for the dynamic setting, almost nothing was known until recently.…
Over the years, much research involving mobile computational entities has been performed. From modeling actual microscopic (and smaller) robots, to modeling software processes on a network, many important problems have been studied in this…
We present simple deterministic algorithms for subgraph finding and enumeration in the broadcast CONGEST model of distributed computation: -- For any constant $k$, detecting $k$-paths and trees on $k$ nodes can be done in $O(1)$ rounds. --…
Graph coloring is a fundamental problem in computer science. We study the fully dynamic version of the problem in which the graph is undergoing edge insertions and deletions and we wish to maintain a vertex-coloring with small update time…
The Beeping Network (BN) model captures important properties of biological processes. Paradoxically, the extremely limited communication capabilities of such nodes has helped BN become one of the fundamental models for networks. Since in…
We show that every Borel graph $G$ of subexponential growth has a Borel proper edge-coloring with $\Delta(G) + 1$ colors. We deduce this from a stronger result, namely that an $n$-vertex (finite) graph $G$ of subexponential growth can be…
Differential Privacy is the gold standard in privacy-preserving data analysis. This paper addresses the challenge of producing a differentially edge-private vertex coloring. In this paper, we present two novel algorithms to approach this…
We present a polynomial-time algorithm that colors any 3-colorable $n$-vertex graph using $O(n^{0.19539})$ colors, improving upon the previous best bound of $\widetilde{O}(n^{0.19747})$ by Kawarabayashi, Thorup, and Yoneda [STOC 2024]. Our…
A linearly ordered (LO) $k$-colouring of a hypergraph assigns to each vertex a colour from the set $\{0,1,\ldots,k-1\}$ in such a way that each hyperedge has a unique maximum element. Barto, Batistelli, and Berg conjectured that it is…
We investigate the classical and distributed complexity of \emph{$k$-partial $c$-coloring} where $c=k$, a natural generalization of Brooks' theorem where each vertex should be colored from the palette $\{1,\ldots,c\} = \{1,\ldots,k\}$ such…
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…
We study the 3-\textsc{Coloring} problem in graphs with small diameter. In 2013, Mertzios and Spirakis showed that for $n$-vertex diameter-2 graphs this problem can be solved in subexponential time $2^{\mathcal{O}(\sqrt{n \log n})}$.…
We consider two models of computation: centralized local algorithms and local distributed algorithms. Algorithms in one model are adapted to the other model to obtain improved algorithms. Distributed vertex coloring is employed to design…
The classic theorem of Vizing (Diskret. Analiz.'64) asserts that any graph of maximum degree $\Delta$ can be edge colored (offline) using no more than $\Delta+1$ colors (with $\Delta$ being a trivial lower bound). In the online setting,…
