Space Efficient Approximation to Maximum Matching Size from Uniform Edge Samples

Slobodan Mitrovic, Mikhail Kapralov, Ashkan Norouzi Fard, Jakab Tardos

Given a source of iid samples of edges of an input graph G with n vertices and m edges, how many samples does one need to compute a constant factor approximation to the maximum matching size in G? Moreover, is it possible to obtain such an estimate in a sm ...

A Crossing Lemma for Multigraphs

János Pach

Let G be a drawing of a graph with n vertices and e > 4n edges, in which no two adjacent edges cross and any pair of independent edges cross at most once. According to the celebrated Crossing Lemma of Ajtai, Chvatal, Newborn, Szemeredi and Leighton, the nu ...

Exponential extinction time of the contact process on finite graphs

Thomas Mountford, Jean-Christophe Mourrat, Daniel Rodrigues Valesin

We study the extinction time tau of the contact process started with full occupancy on finite trees of bounded degree. We show that, if the infection rate is larger than the critical rate for the contact process on Z, then, uniformly over all trees of degr ...

Removing and Adding Edges for the Traveling Salesman Problem

Ola Nils Anders Svensson

We present a framework for approximating the metric TSP based on a novel use of matchings. Traditionally, matchings have been used to add edges to make a given graph Eulerian, whereas our approach also allows for the removal of certain edges leading to a d ...

Node-weighted network design and maximum sub-determinants

Carsten Moldenhauer

We consider the Node-weighted Steiner Forest problem on planar graphs. Demaine et al. showed that a generic primal-dual algorithm gives a 6-approximation. We present two different proofs of an approximation factor of~

On the Dihedral Main Conjectures of Iwasawa Theory for Hilbert Modular Eigenforms

Jeanine Marie Van Order

We construct a bipartite Euler system in the sense of Howard for Hilbert modular eigenforms of parallel weight two over totally real fields, generalizing works of Bertolini-Darmon, Longo, Nekovar, Pollack-Weston, and others. The construction has direct app ...

Adjacent Crossings Do Matter

Radoslav Fulek

In a drawing of a graph, two edges form an odd pair if they cross each other an odd number of times. A pair of edges is independent if they share no endpoint. For a graph G, let ocr(G) be the smallest number of odd pairs in a drawing of G and let iocr(G) b ...

A bipartite strengthening of the Crossing Lemma

János Pach

Let G = (V, E) be a graph with n vertices and m >= 4n edges drawn in the plane. The celebrated Crossing Lemma states that G has at least Omega(m(3)/n(2)) pairs of crossing edges; or equivalently, there is an edge that crosses Omega(m(2)/n(2)) other edges. ...

Split-critical and uniquely split-colorable graphs

Dominique de Werra, Tinaz Ekim, Bernard Ries

The split-coloring problem is a generalized vertex coloring problem where we partition the vertices into a minimum number of split graphs. In this paper, we study some notions which are extensively studied for the usual vertex coloring and the cocoloring p ...

From L. Euler to D. König

Dominique de Werra

Starting from the famous Konigsberg bridge problem which Euler described in 1736, we intend to show that some results obtained 180 years later by Konig are very close to Euler's discoveries. ...

Network coding for undirected information exchange

Christina Fragouli, Suhas Diggavi

We consider the information exchange problem where each in a set of terminals transmits information to all other terminals in the set, over an undirected network. We show that the design of only a single network code for multicasting is sufficient to achie ...

Parity-regular Steinhaus graphs

Maxime Augier

Steinhaus graphs on n vertices are certain simple graphs in bijective correspondence with binary {0,1}-sequences of length n-1. A conjecture of Dymacek in 1979 states that the only nontrivial regular Steinhaus graphs are those corresponding to the periodic ...
