ON THE INDEPENDENCE NUMBER OF INTERSECTION GRAPHS OF AXIS-PARALLEL SEGMENTS

We prove that for any triangle-free intersection graph of n axis-parallel line segments in the plane, the independence number alpha of this graph is at least alpha n/4+ohm(root n). We complement this with a construction of a graph in this class satisfying ...

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 p ...

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 ...

Sublinear Algorithms for Spectral Graph Clustering

Aidasadat Mousavifar

This thesis focuses on designing spectral tools for graph clustering in sublinear time. With the emergence of big data, many traditional polynomial time, and even linear time algorithms have become prohibitively expensive. Processing modern datasets requir ...

Manycore clique enumeration with fast set intersections

Paolo Ienne, Radu Ioan Stoica, Kubilay Atasu, Jovan Blanusa

Listing all maximal cliques of a given graph has important applications in the analysis of social and biological networks. Parallelisation of maximal clique enumeration (MCE) algorithms on modern manycore processors is challenging due to the task-level par ...

Time-resolved analysis of dynamic graphs: an extended Slepian design

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Raphaël Pierre Liégeois, Ibrahim Merad

Graphs are extensively used to represent networked data. In many applications, especially when considering large datasets, it is a desirable feature to focus the analysis onto specific subgraphs of interest. Slepian theory and its extension to graphs allow ...

Actuator Placement for Optimizing Network Performance under Controllability Constraints

Maryam Kamgarpour, Tyler Summers, Baiwei Guo, Orcun Karaca

With the rising importance of large-scale network control, the problem of actuator placement has received increasing attention. Our goal in this paper is to find a set of actuators minimizing the metric that measures the average energy consumption of the c ...

Weighted Matchings via Unweighted Augmentations

Ola Nils Anders Svensson, Slobodan Mitrovic, Buddhima Ruwanmini Gamlath Gamlath Ralalage

We design a generic method to reduce the task of finding weighted matchings to that of finding short augmenting paths in unweighted graphs. This method enables us to provide efficient implementations for approximating weighted matchings in the massively pa ...

New Graph Algorithms via Polyhedral Techniques

Jakub Tarnawski

In this thesis we give new algorithms for two fundamental graph problems. We develop novel ways of using linear programming formulations, even exponential-sized ones, to extract structure from problem instances and to guide algorithms in making progress. S ...

Finding Perfect Matchings in Bipartite Hypergraphs

Chidambaram Annamalai

Haxell's condition [14] is a natural hypergraph analog of Hall's condition, which is a well-known necessary and sufficient condition for a bipartite graph to admit a perfect matching. That is, when Haxell's condition holds it forces the existence of a perf ...
