We consider the problem of coloring graphs of maximum degree $\Delta$ with $\Delta$ colors in the distributed setting with limited bandwidth. Specifically, we give a $\mathsf{poly}\log\log n$-round randomized algorithm in the CONGEST model.…
The Lopsided Lov\'{a}sz Local Lemma (LLLL) is a powerful probabilistic principle which has been used in a variety of combinatorial constructions. While originally a general statement about probability spaces, it has recently been…
We present improved deterministic distributed algorithms for a number of well-studied matching problems, which are simpler, faster, more accurate, and/or more general than their known counterparts. The common denominator of these results is…
The Lov\'asz Local Lemma (the LLL for short) is a powerful tool in probabilistic combinatorics that is used to verify the existence of combinatorial objects with desirable properties. Recent years saw the development of various…
We give a new randomized distributed algorithm for $(\Delta+1)$-coloring in the LOCAL model, running in $O(\sqrt{\log \Delta})+ 2^{O(\sqrt{\log \log n})}$ rounds in a graph of maximum degree~$\Delta$. This implies that the…
The resampling algorithm of Moser \& Tardos is a powerful approach to develop constructive versions of the Lov\'{a}sz Local Lemma (LLL). We generalize this to partial resampling: when a bad event holds, we resample an appropriately-random…
We give a probabilistic analysis of a Moser-type algorithm for the Lov\'{a}sz Local Lemma (LLL), adjusted to search for acyclic edge colorings of a graph. We thus improve the best known upper bound to acyclic chromatic index, also obtained…
Vertex coloring is one of the classic symmetry breaking problems studied in distributed computing. In this paper we present a new algorithm for $(\Delta+1)$-list coloring in the randomized ${\sf LOCAL}$ model running in…
In the past few years, a successful line of research has lead to lower bounds for several fundamental local graph problems in the distributed setting. These results were obtained via a technique called round elimination. On a high level,…
Following the groundbreaking algorithm of Moser and Tardos for the Lovasz Local Lemma (LLL), there has been a plethora of results analyzing local search algorithms for various constraint satisfaction problems. The algorithms considered fall…
Brooks' theorem states that all connected graphs but odd cycles and cliques can be colored with $\Delta$ colors, where $\Delta$ is the maximum degree of the graph. Such colorings have been shown to admit non-trivial distributed algorithms…
Recently, Brandt et al. [STOC'16] proved a lower bound for the distributed Lov\'asz Local Lemma, which has been conjectured to be tight for sufficiently relaxed LLL criteria by Chang and Pettie [FOCS'17]. At the heart of their result lies a…
Let G be a graph on n vertices with maximum degree D. We use the Lov\'asz local lemma to show the following two results about colourings c of the edges of the complete graph K_n. If for each vertex v of K_n the colouring c assigns each…
We study the problem of sampling an approximately uniformly random satisfying assignment for atomic constraint satisfaction problems i.e. where each constraint is violated by only one assignment to its variables. Let $p$ denote the maximum…
We give a simple combinatorial algorithm to deterministically approximately count the number of satisfying assignments of general constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs). Suppose that the CSP has domain size $q=O(1)$, each constraint…
We provide novel deterministic distributed vertex coloring algorithms. As our main result, we give a deterministic distributed algorithm to compute a $(\Delta+1)$-coloring of an $n$-node graph with maximum degree $\Delta$ in…
We consider recent formulations of the algorithmic Lovasz Local Lemma by Achlioptas-Iliopoulos-Kolmogorov [2] and by Achlioptas-Iliopoulos-Sinclair [3]. These papers analyze a random walk algorithm for finding objects that avoid undesired…
We present a new approach to randomized distributed graph coloring that is simpler and more efficient than previous ones. In particular, it allows us to tackle the $(\operatorname{deg}+1)$-list-coloring (D1LC) problem, where each node $v$…
Our previous paper applied a lopsided version of the Lov\'asz Local Lemma that allows negative dependency graphs to the space of random injections from an $m$-element set to an $n$-element set. Equivalently, the same story can be told about…
Recent improvements on the deterministic complexities of fundamental graph problems in the LOCAL model of distributed computing have yielded state-of-the-art upper bounds of $\tilde{O}(\log^{5/3} n)$ rounds for maximal independent set (MIS)…
