Recently, Chalermsook et al. [SODA'21(arXiv:2007.07862)] introduces a notion of vertex sparsifiers for $c$-edge connectivity, which has found applications in parameterized algorithms for network design and also led to exciting dynamic…
A seminal work of [Ahn-Guha-McGregor, PODS'12] showed that one can compute a cut sparsifier of an unweighted undirected graph by taking a near-linear number of linear measurements on the graph. Subsequent works also studied computing other…
In the decremental single-source shortest paths problem, the goal is to maintain distances from a fixed source $s$ to every vertex $v$ in an $m$-edge graph undergoing edge deletions. In this paper, we conclude a long line of research on…
Diffusion and flow-matching have emerged as powerful methodologies for generative modeling, with remarkable success in capturing complex data distributions and enabling flexible guidance at inference time. Many downstream applications,…
We present a general toolbox, based on new vertex sparsifiers, for designing data structures to maintain shortest paths in dynamic graphs. In an $m$-edge graph undergoing edge insertions and deletions, our data structures give the first…
Analyzing massive data sets has been one of the key motivations for studying streaming algorithms. In recent years, there has been significant progress in analysing distributions in a streaming setting, but the progress on graph problems…
Graph spanners are sparse subgraphs that faithfully preserve the distances in the original graph up to small stretch. Spanner have been studied extensively as they have a wide range of applications ranging from distance oracles, labeling…
CSP sparsification, introduced by Kogan and Krauthgamer (ITCS 2015), considers the following question: how much can an instance of a constraint satisfaction problem be sparsified (by retaining a reweighted subset of the constraints) while…
We consider the problem of finding a minimum cut of a weighted graph presented as a single-pass stream. While graph sparsification in streams has been intensively studied, the specific application of finding minimum cuts in streams is less…
The graph Fourier transform (GFT) is a fundamental tool in graph signal processing and has recently been extended to the graph fractional Fourier transform (GFRFT). Existing sampling methods in the GFRFT domain are primarily designed to…
In this paper, we consider the problem of designing cut sparsifiers and sketches for directed graphs. To bypass known lower bounds, we allow the sparsifier/sketch to depend on the balance of the input graph, which smoothly interpolates…
For $\alpha \ge 1$, $\beta \ge 0$, and a graph $G$, a spanning subgraph $H$ of $G$ is said to be an $(\alpha, \beta)$-spanner if $\dist(u, v, H) \le \alpha \cdot \dist(u, v, G) + \beta$ holds for any pair of vertices $u$ and $v$. These type…
In this work, the friction factor for steady periodically developed flow through micro-and mini-channels with periodic arrays of offset strip fins is analyzed. The friction factor is studied numerically on a unit cell of the array for…
A natural requirement of many distributed structures is fault-tolerance: after some failures, whatever remains from the structure should still be effective for whatever remains from the network. In this paper we examine spanners of general…
Graph-structured data jointly contain discrete topology and continuous geometry, which poses fundamental challenges for generative modeling due to heterogeneous distributions, incompatible noise dynamics, and the need for equivariant…
We study the concept of \emph{compactor}, which may be seen as a counting-analogue of kernelization in counting parameterized complexity. For a function $F:\Sigma^*\to \Bbb{N}$ and a parameterization $\kappa: \Sigma^*\to \Bbb{N}$, a…
We provide $m^{1+o(1)}k\epsilon^{-1}$-time algorithms for computing multiplicative $(1 - \epsilon)$-approximate solutions to multi-commodity flow problems with $k$-commodities on $m$-edge directed graphs, including concurrent…
Long, shallow microchannels embedded in thick soft materials are widely used in microfluidic devices for lab-on-a-chip applications. However, the bulging effect caused by fluid--structure interactions between the internal viscous flow and…
The problem of approximately computing the $k$ dominant Fourier coefficients of a vector $X$ quickly, and using few samples in time domain, is known as the Sparse Fourier Transform (sparse FFT) problem. A long line of work on the sparse FFT…
In this paper we initiate the study of expander decompositions of a graph $G=(V, E)$ in the streaming model of computation. The goal is to find a partitioning $\mathcal{C}$ of vertices $V$ such that the subgraphs of $G$ induced by the…
