This work deals with the Maximum Independent Set ($\mathcal{MIS}$) formation problem in a finite rectangular grid by autonomous robots. Suppose we are given a set of identical robots, where each robot is placed on a node of a finite…
We consider the problem of filling an unknown area represented by an arbitrary connected graph of $n$ vertices by mobile luminous robots. In this problem, the robots enter the graph one-by-one through a specific vertex, called the Door, and…
In a connected graph with an autonomous robot swarm with limited visibility, it is natural to ask whether the robots can be deployed to certain vertices satisfying a given property using only local knowledge. This paper affirmatively…
We consider the problem of constructing a maximum independent set with mobile myopic luminous robots on a grid network whose size is finite but unknown to the robots. In this setting, the robots enter the grid network one-by-one from a…
Most graphs in real life keep changing with time. These changes can be in the form of insertion or deletion of edges or vertices. Such rapidly changing graphs motivate us to study dynamic graph algorithms. However, three important graph…
Finding a maximal independent set (MIS) in a graph is a cornerstone task in distributed computing. The local nature of an MIS allows for fast solutions in a static distributed setting, which are logarithmic in the number of nodes or in…
We show that the maximum independent set problem (MIS) on an $n$-vertex graph can be solved in $1.1996^nn^{O(1)}$ time and polynomial space, which even is faster than Robson's $1.2109^{n}n^{O(1)}$-time exponential-space algorithm published…
We study the Maximum Independent Set (MIS) problem on general graphs within the framework of learning-augmented algorithms. The MIS problem is known to be NP-hard and is also NP-hard to approximate to within a factor of $n^{1-\delta}$ for…
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…
We consider the classic maximal and maximum independent set problems in three models of graph streams: In the edge-arrival model we see a stream of edges which collectively define a graph, this model has been well-studied for a variety of…
Maximum Independent Set (MIS for short) is in general graphs the paradigmatic $W[1]$-hard problem. In stark contrast, polynomial-time algorithms are known when the inputs are restricted to structured graph classes such as, for instance,…
Two of the most fundamental distributed symmetry-breaking problems are that of finding a maximal independent set (MIS) and a maximal matching (MM) in a graph. It is a major open question whether these problems can be solved in constant…
We present the first algorithm for maintaining a maximal independent set (MIS) of a fully dynamic graph---which undergoes both edge insertions and deletions---in polylogarithmic time. Our algorithm is randomized and, per update, takes…
The goal of this paper is to understand the complexity of symmetry breaking problems, specifically maximal independent set (MIS) and the closely related $\beta$-ruling set problem, in two computational models suited for large-scale graph…
Robots are becoming an increasingly common part of scientific work within laboratory environments. In this paper, we investigate the problem of designing \emph{schedules} for completing a set of tasks at fixed locations with multiple robots…
In this paper, we investigate a distributed maximal independent set (MIS) reconfiguration problem, in which there are two maximal independent sets for which every node is given its membership status, and the nodes need to communicate with…
A graph $G$ with $n$ vertices is called an outerstring graph if it has an intersection representation of a set of $n$ curves inside a disk such that one endpoint of every curve is attached to the boundary of the disk. Given an outerstring…
We study the problem of finding a maximal independent set (MIS) in the standard LOCAL model of distributed computing. Classical algorithms by Luby [JACM'86] and Alon, Babai, and Itai [JALG'86] find an MIS in $O(\log n)$ rounds in $n$-node…
Maximal independent set (MIS), maximal matching (MM), and $(\Delta+1)$-coloring in graphs of maximum degree $\Delta$ are among the most prominent algorithmic graph theory problems. They are all solvable by a simple linear-time greedy…
A $t$-ruling set of a graph $G = (V, E)$ is a vertex-subset $S \subseteq V$ that is independent and satisfies the property that every vertex $v \in V$ is at a distance of at most $t$ from some vertex in $S$. A \textit{maximal independent…
