Unlike traditional routing procedures that, at the best, single out a unique route, multi-path routing protocols discover proactively several alternative routes. It has been recognized that multi-path routing can be more efficient than…

An electrical network with the structure of a random tree is considered: starting from a root vertex, in one iteration each leaf (a vertex with zero or one adjacent edges) of the tree is extended by either a single edge with probability $p$…

For successful estimation, the usual network tomography algorithms crucially require i) end-to-end data generated using multicast probe packets, real or emulated, and ii) the network to be a tree rooted at a single sender with destinations…

In this paper, we study network reliability in relation to a periodic time-dependent utility function that reflects the system's functional performance. When an anomaly occurs, the system incurs a loss of utility that depends on the…

More than two decades ago, combinatorial topology was shown to be useful for analyzing distributed fault-tolerant algorithms in shared memory systems and in message passing systems. In this work, we show that combinatorial topology can also…

In the matching interdiction problem, we are given an undirected graph with weights and interdiction costs on the edges and seek to remove a subset of the edges constrained to some budget, such that the weight of a maximum weight matching…

With the increasing scale of communication networks, the likelihood of failures grows as well. Since these networks form a critical backbone of our digital society, it is important that they rely on robust routing algorithms which ensure…

In this paper we study the problem of how resilient networks are to node faults. Specifically, we investigate the question of how many faults a network can sustain so that it still contains a large (i.e. linear-sized) connected component…

The Steiner Multicycle problem consists of, given a complete graph, a weight function on its vertices, and a collection of pairwise disjoint non-unitary sets called terminal sets, finding a minimum weight collection of vertex-disjoint…

Karger (SIAM Journal on Computing, 1999) developed the first fully-polynomial approximation scheme to estimate the probability that a graph $G$ becomes disconnected, given that its edges are removed independently with probability $p$. This…

We investigate certain structural properties of random interdependent networks. We start by studying a property known as $r$-robustness, which is a strong indicator of the ability of a network to tolerate structural perturbations and…

We address the problem of distributed state estimation of a linear dynamical process in an attack-prone environment. Recent attempts to solve this problem impose stringent redundancy requirements on the measurement and communication…

With applications in distribution systems and communication networks, the minimum stretch spanning tree problem is to find a spanning tree T of a graph G such that the maximum distance in T between two adjacent vertices is minimized. The…

Rapid reliability assessment of transportation networks can enhance preparedness, risk mitigation, and response management procedures related to these systems. Network reliability analysis commonly considers network-level performance and…

We present a simple model of network dynamics that can be solved analytically for uniform networks. We obtain the dynamics of response of the system to perturbations. The analytical solution is an excellent approximation for random…

We consider the graph link prediction task, which is a classic graph analytical problem with many real-world applications. With the advances of deep learning, current link prediction methods commonly compute features from subgraphs centered…

The random greedy algorithm for constructing a large partial Steiner-Triple-System is defined as follows. We begin with a complete graph on $n$ vertices and proceed to remove the edges of triangles one at a time, where each triangle removed…

The P versus NP problem asks whether every language verifiable in polynomial time can also be decided in deterministic polynomial time. In this paper, we present a constructive proof that P = NP by introducing a universal, graph-based…

Most modern communication networks include fast rerouting mechanisms, implemented entirely in the data plane, to quickly recover connectivity after link failures. By relying on local failure information only, these data plane mechanisms…

The probabilistic satisfiability of a logical expression is a fundamental concept known as the partition function in statistical physics and field theory, an evaluation of a related graph's Tutte polynomial in mathematics, and the…
