In this paper, we bring the techniques of the Laplacian paradigm to the congested clique, while further restricting ourselves to deterministic algorithms. In particular, we show how to solve a Laplacian system up to precision $\epsilon$ in…

We present improved deterministic algorithms for approximating shortest paths in the Congested Clique model of distributed computing. We obtain $poly(\log\log n)$-round algorithms for the following problems in unweighted undirected…

We investigate graph problems in the following setting: we are given a graph $G$ and we are required to solve a problem on $G^2$. While we focus mostly on exploring this theme in the distributed CONGEST model, we show new results and…

In the load balancing problem, the input is an $n$-vertex bipartite graph $G = (C \cup S, E)$ and a positive weight for each client $c \in C$. The algorithm must assign each client $c \in C$ to an adjacent server $s \in S$. The load of a…

We revisit classical connectivity problems in the CONGEST model of distributed computing. By using techniques from fault tolerant network design, we show improved constructions, some of which are even "local" (i.e., with $\widetilde{O}(1)$…

We introduce a new approach to the maximum flow problem in undirected, capacitated graphs using $\alpha$-\emph{congestion-approximators}: easy-to-compute functions that approximate the congestion required to route single-commodity demands…

We present a new technique to efficiently sample and communicate a large number of elements from a distributed sampling space. When used in the context of a recent LOCAL algorithm for $(\operatorname{degree}+1)$-list-coloring (D1LC), this…

We study the problem of computing approximate minimum edge cuts by distributed algorithms. We use a standard synchronous message passing model where in each round, $O(\log n)$ bits can be transmitted over each edge (a.k.a. the CONGEST…

Distributed vertex coloring is one of the classic problems and probably also the most widely studied problems in the area of distributed graph algorithms. We present a new randomized distributed vertex coloring algorithm for the standard…

We study the problem of computing the minimum cut in a weighted distributed message-passing networks (the CONGEST model). Let $\lambda$ be the minimum cut, $n$ be the number of nodes in the network, and $D$ be the network diameter. Our…

We address the fundamental network design problem of constructing approximate minimum spanners. Our contributions are for the distributed setting, providing both algorithmic and hardness results. Our main hardness result shows that an…

We study distributed optimization algorithms for minimizing the average of convex functions. The applications include empirical risk minimization problems in statistical machine learning where the datasets are large and have to be stored on…

For a graph G=(V,E), finding a set of disjoint edges that do not share any vertices is called a matching problem, and finding the maximum matching is a fundamental problem in the theory of distributed graph algorithms. Although local…

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 $\Delta$…

Distributed graph algorithms that separately optimize for either the number of rounds used or the total number of messages sent have been studied extensively. However, algorithms simultaneously efficient with respect to both measures have…

We present several results in the CONGEST model on round complexity for Replacement Paths (RPaths), Minimum Weight Cycle (MWC), and All Nodes Shortest Cycles (ANSC). We study these fundamental problems in both directed and undirected…

We propose a distributed solution for a constrained convex optimization problem over a network of clustered agents each consisted of a set of subagents. The communication range of the clustered agents is such that they can form a connected…

We study stochastic graph optimization problems in a novel distributed setting. As in the standard centralized setting, a random subgraph $G^*$ of a known base graph $G$ is realized by including each edge $e$ independently with a known…

We present near-optimal algorithms for detecting small vertex cuts in the CONGEST model of distributed computing. Despite extensive research in this area, our understanding of the vertex connectivity of a graph is still incomplete,…

This paper considers the triangle finding problem in the CONGEST model of distributed computing. Recent works by Izumi and Le Gall (PODC'17), Chang, Pettie and Zhang (SODA'19) and Chang and Saranurak (PODC'19) have successively reduced the…
