In the pairwise weighted spanner problem, the input consists of an $n$-vertex-directed graph, where each edge is assigned a cost and a length. Given $k$ vertex pairs and a distance constraint for each pair, the goal is to find a…

A natural requirement of many distributed structures is fault-tolerance: after some failures, whatever remains from the structure should still be effective for whatever remains from the network. In this paper we examine spanners of general…

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…

A $t$-{\em spanner} $H$ of a weighted graph $G=(V,E,w)$ is a subgraph that approximates all pairwise distances up to a factor of $t$. The {\em lightness} of $H$ is defined as the ratio between the weight of $H$ to that of the minimum…

For a given graph $G$, a "hopset" $H$ with hopbound $\beta$ and stretch $\alpha$ is a set of edges such that between every pair of vertices $u$ and $v$, there is a path with at most $\beta$ hops in $G \cup H$ that approximates the distance…

We develop a new technique for constructing sparse graphs that allow us to prove near-linear lower bounds on the round complexity of computing distances in the CONGEST model. Specifically, we show an $\widetilde{\Omega}(n)$ lower bound for…

To accelerate kernel methods, we propose a near input sparsity time algorithm for sampling the high-dimensional feature space implicitly defined by a kernel transformation. Our main contribution is an importance sampling method for…

Exploiting sparsity in deep neural networks (DNNs) has been a promising area for meeting the growing computation requirements. To minimize the overhead of sparse acceleration, hardware designers have proposed structured sparsity support,…

We study the problem of scheduling $n$ independent moldable tasks on $m$ processors that arises in large-scale parallel computations. When tasks are monotonic, the best known result is a $(\frac{3}{2}+\epsilon)$-approximation algorithm for…

Graph spanners are well-studied and widely used both in theory and practice. In a recent breakthrough, Chechik and Wulff-Nilsen [CW18] improved the state-of-the-art for light spanners by constructing a $(2k-1)(1+\epsilon)$-spanner with…

Artificial neural network emulators have been demonstrated to be a very computationally efficient method to rapidly generate galaxy spectral energy distributions (SEDs), for parameter inference or otherwise. Using a highly flexible and fast…

Lightness and sparsity are two natural parameters for Euclidean $(1+\varepsilon)$-spanners. Classical results show that, when the dimension $d\in \mathbb{N}$ and $\varepsilon>0$ are constant, every set $S$ of $n$ points in $d$-space admits…

We give a simple algorithm for maintaining a $n^{o(1)}$-approximate spanner $H$ of a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices as $G$ receives edge updates by reduction to the dynamic All-Pairs Shortest Paths (APSP) problem. Given an initially empty…

In STOC'95 \cite{ADMSS95} Arya et al.\ showed that for any set of $n$ points in $\mathbb R^d$, a $(1+\epsilon)$-spanner with diameter at most 2 (respectively, 3) and $O(n \log n)$ edges (resp., $O(n \log \log n)$ edges) can be built in $O(n…

Graph sketching is a powerful technique introduced by the seminal work of Ahn, Guha and McGregor'12 on connectivity in dynamic graph streams that has enjoyed considerable attention in the literature since then, and has led to near optimal…

For $\alpha \ge 1$, $\beta \ge 0$, and a graph $G$, a spanning subgraph $H$ of $G$ is said to be an $(\alpha, \beta)$-spanner if $\dist(u, v, H) \le \alpha \cdot \dist(u, v, G) + \beta$ holds for any pair of vertices $u$ and $v$. These type…

Constructing a spanning tree of a graph is one of the most basic tasks in graph theory. We consider a relaxed version of this problem in the setting of local algorithms. The relaxation is that the constructed subgraph is a sparse spanning…

Designing dynamic algorithms against an adaptive adversary whose performance match the ones assuming an oblivious adversary is a major research program in the field of dynamic graph algorithms. One of the prominent examples whose…

We study smoothed analysis of distributed graph algorithms, focusing on the fundamental minimum spanning tree (MST) problem. With the goal of studying the time complexity of distributed MST as a function of the "perturbation" of the input…
