We study the space complexity of sketching cuts and Laplacian quadratic forms of graphs. We show that any data structure which approximately stores the sizes of all cuts in an undirected graph on $n$ vertices up to a $1+\epsilon$ error must…

In this thesis, we present new techniques to deal with fundamental algorithmic graph problems where graphs are directed and partially dynamic, i.e. undergo either a sequence of edge insertions or deletions: - Single-Source Reachability…

Graph edit distance (GED) is an important similarity measure adopted in a similarity-based analysis between two graphs, and computing GED is a primitive operator in graph database analysis. Partially due to the NP-hardness, the existing…

We introduce a new algorithmic framework for designing dynamic graph algorithms in minor-free graphs, by exploiting the structure of such graphs and a tool called vertex sparsification, which is a way to compress large graphs into small…

In the minimum $k$-edge-connected spanning subgraph ($k$-ECSS) problem the goal is to find the minimum weight subgraph resistant to up to $k-1$ edge failures. This is a central problem in network design, and a natural generalization of the…

A set $D\subseteq V$ of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is called a neighborhood total dominating set of $G$ if $D$ is a dominating set and the subgraph of $G$ induced by the open neighborhood of $D$ has no isolated vertex. Given a graph $G$,…

Random subsampling of edges is a commonly employed technique in graph algorithms, underlying a vast array of modern algorithmic breakthroughs. Unfortunately, using this technique often leads to randomized algorithms with no clear path to…

A well-known problem in data science and machine learning is {\em linear regression}, which is recently extended to dynamic graphs. Existing exact algorithms for updating the solution of dynamic graph regression require at least a linear…

We present a general framework of designing efficient dynamic approximate algorithms for optimization on undirected graphs. In particular, we develop a technique that, given any problem that admits a certain notion of vertex sparsifiers,…

We give an algorithm to find a minimum cut in an edge-weighted directed graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges in $\tilde O(n\cdot \max(m^{2/3}, n))$ time. This improves on the 30 year old bound of $\tilde O(nm)$ obtained by Hao and Orlin…

This paper investigates the approximability of the Longest Common Subsequence (LCS) problem. The fastest algorithm for solving the LCS problem exactly runs in essentially quadratic time in the length of the input, and it is known that under…

In this paper we consider the fundamental problem of approximating the diameter $D$ of directed or undirected graphs. In a seminal paper, Aingworth, Chekuri, Indyk and Motwani [SIAM J. Comput. 1999] presented an algorithm that computes in…

We study the problem of efficiently approximating the \textit{effective resistance} (ER) on undirected graphs, where ER is a widely used node proximity measure with applications in graph spectral sparsification, multi-class graph…

It is known since 1975 (\cite{HK75}) that maximum cardinality matchings in bipartite graphs with $n$ nodes and $m$ edges can be computed in time $O(\sqrt{n} m)$. Asymptotically faster algorithms were found in the last decade and maximum…

We study a well known noisy model of the graph isomorphism problem. In this model, the goal is to perfectly recover the vertex correspondence between two edge-correlated Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi random graphs, with an initial seed set of…

We study dynamic $(1-\epsilon)$-approximate rounding of fractional matchings -- a key ingredient in numerous breakthroughs in the dynamic graph algorithms literature. Our first contribution is a surprisingly simple deterministic rounding…

We give two fully dynamic algorithms that maintain a $(1+\varepsilon)$-approximation of the weight $M$ of a minimum spanning forest (MSF) of an $n$-node graph $G$ with edges weights in $[1,W]$, for any $\varepsilon>0$. (1) Our deterministic…

A \emph{disk graph} is the intersection graph of (closed) disks in the plane. We consider the classic problem of finding a maximum clique in a disk graph. For general disk graphs, the complexity of this problem is still open, but for unit…

This paper studies the fundamental problem of graph coloring in fully dynamic graphs. Since the problem of computing an optimal coloring, or even approximating it to within $n^{1-\epsilon}$ for any $\epsilon > 0$, is NP-hard in static…

We propose a novel method for comparing non-aligned graphs of different sizes, based on the Wasserstein distance between graph signal distributions induced by the respective graph Laplacian matrices. Specifically, we cast a new formulation…
