We revisit connectivity-constrained coverage through a unifying model, Partial Connected Red-Blue Dominating Set. Given a red-blue bipartite graph $G$ and an auxiliary connectivity graph $G_{conn}$ on red vertices, and integers $k, t$, the…

The Weighted Tree Augmentation Problem (WTAP) is a fundamental network design problem where the goal is to find a minimum-cost set of additional edges (links) to make an input tree 2-edge-connected. While a 2-approximation is standard and…

The task of finding an extension to a given partial drawing of a graph while adhering to constraints on the representation has been extensively studied in the literature, with well-known results providing efficient algorithms for…

We consider a large random network, in which the performance of a node depends upon that of its neighbours and some external random influence factors. This results in random vector valued fixed-point (FP) equations in large dimensional…

Connected components and spanning forest are fundamental graph algorithms due to their use in many important applications, such as graph clustering and image segmentation. GPUs are an ideal platform for graph algorithms due to their high…

We design and analyse approximation algorithms for the minimum-cost connected T-join problem: given an undirected graph G = (V;E) with nonnegative costs on the edges, and a subset of nodes T, find (if it exists) a spanning connected…

The priority model was introduced to capture "greedy-like" algorithms. Motivated by the success of advice complexity in the area of online algorithms, the fixed priority model was extended to include advice, and a reduction-based framework…

We abstract and study \emph{reachability preservers}, a graph-theoretic primitive that has been implicit in prior work on network design. Given a directed graph $G = (V, E)$ and a set of \emph{demand pairs} $P \subseteq V \times V$, a…

For any undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ and a set $E_W$ of candidate edges with $E\cap E_W=\emptyset$, the $(k,\gamma)$-spectral augmentability problem is to find a set $F$ of $k$ edges from $E_W$ with appropriate weighting, such that the…

Fault-tolerant connectivity labelings are schemes that, given an $n$-vertex graph $G=(V,E)$ and $f\geq 1$, produce succinct yet informative labels for the elements of the graph. Given only the labels of two vertices $u,v$ and of the…

Graph neural networks (GNNs) are gaining increasing popularity as a promising approach to machine learning on graphs. Unlike traditional graph workloads where each vertex/edge is associated with a scalar, GNNs attach a feature tensor to…

In this note we describe an application of low-high orders in fault-tolerant network design. Baswana et al. [DISC 2015] study the following reachability problem. We are given a flow graph $G = (V, A)$ with start vertex $s$, and a spanning…

Federated Graph Learning (FGL) is a distributed machine learning paradigm that enables collaborative training on large-scale subgraphs across multiple local systems. Existing FGL studies fall into two categories: (i) FGL Optimization, which…

We develop a new algorithmic technique that allows to transfer some constant time approximation algorithms for general graphs into random order streaming algorithms. We illustrate our technique by proving that in random order streams with…

Graph comparison deals with identifying similarities and dissimilarities between graphs. A major obstacle is the unknown alignment of graphs, as well as the lack of accurate and inexpensive comparison metrics. In this work we introduce the…

In the Steiner Tree Augmentation Problem (STAP), we are given a graph $G = (V,E)$, a set of terminals $R \subseteq V$, and a Steiner tree $T$ spanning $R$. The edges $L := E \setminus E(T)$ are called links and have non-negative costs. The…

Given an edge weighted graph and a forest $F$, the $\textit{2-edge connectivity augmentation problem}$ is to pick a minimum weighted set of edges, $E'$, such that every connected component of $E'\cup F$ is 2-edge connected. Williamson et…

In the Independent Set Reconfiguration problem under the Token Addition/Removal rule, given a graph $G$ and two independent sets $I$ and $J$ of $G$, we want to transform $I$ into $J$ by adding and removing vertices, such that all the sets…

This paper introduces the \emph{$d$-distance matching problem}, in which we are given a bipartite graph $G=(S,T;E)$ with $S=\{s_1,\dots,s_n\}$, a weight function on the edges and an integer $d\in\mathbb Z_+$. The goal is to find a maximum…

Branchwidth determines how graphs, and more generally, arbitrary connectivity (basically symmetric and submodular) functions could be decomposed into a tree-like structure by specific cuts. We develop a general framework for designing…
