The connection of the acyclic disconnection and feedback arc sets - On an open problem of Figueroa et al

We examine the connection of two graph parameters, the size of a minimum feedback arcs set and the acyclic disconnection. A feedback arc set of a directed graph is a subset of arcs such that after deletion the graph becomes acyclic. The acyclic disconnecti ...

Results on Sparse Integer Programming and Geometric Independent Sets

Jana Tabea Cslovjecsek

An integer linear program is a problem of the form max{c^T x : Ax=b, x >= 0, x integer}, where A is in Z^(n x m), b in Z^m, and c in Z^n. Solving an integer linear program is NP-hard in general, but there are several assumptions for which it becomes fixed ...

Maximum Independent Set: Self-Training through Dynamic Programming

Volkan Cevher, Grigorios Chrysos, Efstratios Panteleimon Skoulakis

This work presents a graph neural network (GNN) framework for solving the maximum independent set (MIS) problem, inspired by dynamic programming (DP). Specifically, given a graph, we propose a DP-like recursive algorithm based on GNNs that firstly construc ...

Better Trees for Santa Claus

Etienne Michel François Bamas, Lars Rohwedder

We revisit the problem max-min degree arborescence, which was introduced by Bateni et al. [STOC'09] as a central special case of the general Santa Claus problem, which constitutes a notorious open question in approximation algorithms. In the former problem ...

Graph signal processing tailored for subgraph focus and community structure

Miljan Petrovic

Community structure in graph-modeled data appears in a range of disciplines that comprise network science. Its importance relies on the influence it bears on other properties of graphs such as resilience, or prediction of missing connections. Nevertheless, ...

A Unified Experiment Design Approach for Cyclic and Acyclic Causal Models

Negar Kiyavash, Ehsan Mokhtarian, Saber Salehkaleybar

We study experiment design for unique identification of the causal graph of a system where the graph may contain cycles. The presence of cycles in the structure introduces major challenges for experiment design as, unlike acyclic graphs, learning the skele ...

Motif Cut Sparsifiers

Mikhail Kapralov, Jakab Tardos, Mikhail Makarov

A motif is a frequently occurring subgraph of a given directed or undirected graph G (Milo et al.). Motifs capture higher order organizational structure of G beyond edge relationships, and, therefore, have found wide applications such as in graph clusterin ...

Random walks and forbidden minors III: poly(d epsilon(-1))-time partition oracles for minor-free graph classes

Akash Kumar

Consider the family of bounded degree graphs in any minor-closed family (such as planar graphs). Let d be the degree bound and n be the number of vertices of such a graph. Graphs in these classes have hyperfinite decompositions, where, one removes a small ...

Local approximation of the Maximum Cut in regular graphs

Etienne Michel François Bamas

This paper is devoted to the distributed complexity of finding an approximation of the maximum cut (MAXCUT) in graphs. A classical algorithm consists in letting each vertex choose its side of the cut uniformly at random. This does not require any communica ...

On the Turan number of ordered forests

Istvan Tomon, Dániel József Korándi

An ordered graph H is a simple graph with a linear order on its vertex set. The corresponding Turan problem, first studied by Pach and Tardos, asks for the maximum number ex(

Graph Learning with Partial Observations: Role of Degree Concentration

Ali H. Sayed, Augusto José Rabelo Almeida Santos

In this work we consider the problem of learning an Erdos-Renyi graph over a diffusion network when: i) data from only a limited subset of nodes are available (partial observation); ii) and the inferential goal is to discover the graph of interconnections ...

Learning Approach to Delineation of Curvilinear Structures in 2D and 3D Images

Agata Justyna Mosinska

Detection of curvilinear structures has long been of interest due to its wide range of applications. Large amounts of imaging data could be readily used in many fields, but it is practically not possible to analyze them manually. Hence, the need for automa ...

Ramsey-Turan numbers for semi-algebraic graphs

János Pach

A semi-algebraic graph G = (V, E) is a graph where the vertices are points in R-d, and the edge set E is defined by a semi-algebraic relation of constant complexity on V. In this note, we establish the following Ramsey-Turan theorem: for every integer p >= ...

The Sketching Complexity of Graph and Hypergraph Counting

Mikhail Kapralov

Subgraph counting is a fundamental primitive in graph processing, with applications in social network analysis (e.g., estimating the clustering coefficient of a graph), database processing and other areas. The space complexity of subgraph counting has been ...

Constant factor approximation for ATSP with two edge weights

Ola Nils Anders Svensson, Jakub Tarnawski

We give a constant factor approximation algorithm for the Asymmetric Traveling Salesman Problem on shortest path metrics of directed graphs with two different edge weights. For the case of unit edge weights, the first constant factor approximation was give ...

Execution Trace Graph of Dataflow Process Networks

The paper introduces and specifies a formalism that provides complete representations of dataflow process network (DPN) program executions, by means of directed acyclic graphs. Such graphs, also known as execution trace graphs (ETG), are composed of nodes ...

A Time-Vertex Signal Processing Framework

Nathanaël Perraudin, Benjamin Ricaud, Andreas Loukas, Francesco Grassi

An emerging way to deal with high-dimensional non-euclidean data is to assume that the underlying structure can be captured by a graph. Recently, ideas have begun to emerge related to the analysis of time-varying graph signals. This work aims to elevate th ...

Strengths and Limitations of Linear Programming Relaxations

Many of the currently best-known approximation algorithms for NP-hard optimization problems are based on Linear Programming (LP) and Semi-definite Programming (SDP) relaxations. Given its power, this class of algorithms seems to contain the most favourable ...
