We study the performance of voting mechanisms from a utilitarian standpoint, under the recently introduced framework of metric-distortion, offering new insights along three main lines. First, if $d$ represents the doubling dimension of the…

The \emph{Steiner tree} problem is one of the fundamental and classical problems in combinatorial optimization. In this paper, we study this problem in the $\mathcal{CONGESTED}$ $\mathcal{CLIQUE}$ model of distributed computing and present…

We consider the online distributed non-stochastic experts problem, where the distributed system consists of one coordinator node that is connected to $k$ sites, and the sites are required to communicate with each other via the coordinator.…

We present fast deterministic distributed protocols in synchronous networks for leader election and spanning tree construction. The protocols are designed under the assumption that nodes in a network have identifiers but the size of an…

We develop deterministic approximation algorithms for the minimum dominating set problem in the CONGEST model with an almost optimal approximation guarantee. For $\epsilon>1/{\text{{poly}}}\log \Delta$ we obtain two algorithms with…

This article presents a theoretical investigation of computation beyond the Turing barrier from emergent behavior in distributed systems. In particular, we present an algorithmic network that is a mathematical model of a networked…

We study the communication complexity and streaming complexity of approximating unweighted semi-matchings. A semi-matching in a bipartite graph G = (A, B, E), with n = |A|, is a subset of edges S that matches all A vertices to B vertices…

This paper provides an algorithmic framework for obtaining fast distributed algorithms for a highly-dynamic setting, in which *arbitrarily many* edge changes may occur in each round. Our algorithm significantly improves upon prior work in…

The population protocol model is a computational model for passive mobile agents. We address the leader election problem, which determines a unique leader on arbitrary communication graphs starting from any configuration. Unfortunately,…

This paper studies broadcasting and gossiping algorithms in random and general AdHoc networks. Our goal is not only to minimise the broadcasting and gossiping time, but also to minimise the energy consumption, which is measured in terms of…

We consider the independent set problem in the semi-streaming model. For any input graph $G=(V, E)$ with $n$ vertices, an independent set is a set of vertices with no edges between any two elements. In the semi-streaming model, $G$ is…

Itai and Rodeh showed that, on the average, the communication of a leader election algorithm takes no more than $LN$ bits, where $L \simeq 2.441716$ and $N$ denotes the size of the ring. We give a precise asymptotic analysis of the average…

We study the deterministic complexity of the $2$-Ruling Set problem in the model of Massively Parallel Computation (MPC) with linear and strongly sublinear local memory. Linear MPC: We present a constant-round deterministic algorithm for…

In the Connected Dominating Set problem we are given a graph $G=(V,E)$ and seek a minimum size dominating set $S \subseteq V$ such that the subgraph $G[S]$ of $G$ induced by $S$ is connected. In the $2$-Edge-Connected Dominating Set problem…

We present a deterministic $(1+o(1))$-approximation $(n^{1/2+o(1)}+D^{1+o(1)})$-time algorithm for solving the single-source shortest paths problem on distributed weighted networks (the CONGEST model); here $n$ is the number of nodes in the…

We revisit the hardness of approximating the diameter of a network. In the CONGEST model of distributed computing, $ \tilde \Omega (n) $ rounds are necessary to compute the diameter [Frischknecht et al. SODA'12], where $ \tilde \Omega…

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…

We show fast deterministic algorithms for fundamental problems on forests in the challenging low-space regime of the well-known Massive Parallel Computation (MPC) model. A recent breakthrough result by Coy and Czumaj [STOC'22] shows that,…

We consider the multi-broadcast problem in arbitrary connected radio networks consisting of $n$ nodes. There are $k$ designated source nodes for some fixed $k \in \{1,\ldots,n\}$, and each source node has a distinct piece of information…

It has been shown that one can design distributed algorithms that are (nearly) singularly optimal, meaning they simultaneously achieve optimal time and message complexity (within polylogarithmic factors), for several fundamental global…
