Fast and Accurate Efficient Streaming Subgraph Isomorphism

Karl Aberer, Quoc Viet Hung Nguyen, Chi Thang Duong, Trung-Dung Hoang

Queries to detect isomorphic subgraphs are important in graph-based data management. While the problem of subgraph isomorphism search has received considerable attention for the static setting of a single query, or a batch thereof, existing approaches do n ...

Extended Formulations from Communication Protocols in Output-Efficient Time

Yuri Faenza, Manuel Francesco Aprile

Deterministic protocols are well-known tools to obtain extended formulations, with many applications to polytopes arising in combinatorial optimization. Although constructive, those tools are not output-efficient, since the time needed to produce the exten ...

Statistical Physics Methods for Community Detection

Chun Lam Chan

This thesis is devoted to information-theoretic aspects of community detection. The importance of community detection is due to the massive amount of scientific data today that describes relationships between items from a network, e.g., a social network. I ...

On some problems related to 2-level polytopes

Manuel Francesco Aprile

In this thesis we investigate a number of problems related to 2-level polytopes, in particular from the point of view of the combinatorial structure and the extension complexity. 2-level polytopes were introduced as a generalization of stable set polytopes ...

Belief control strategies for interactions over weak graphs

Ali H. Sayed

In diffusion social learning over weakly-connected graphs, it has been shown that influential agents end up shaping the beliefs of non-influential agents. In this paper, we analyse this control mechanism more closely and reveal some critical properties. In ...

On vertices and facets of combinatorial 2-level polytopes

Yuri Faenza, Manuel Francesco Aprile, Alfonso Bolívar Cevallos Manzano

2-level polytopes naturally appear in several areas of mathematics, including combinatorial optimization, polyhedral combinatorics, communication complexity, and statistics. We investigate upper bounds on the product of the number of facets and the number ...

Detecting nanoscale vibrations as signature of life

Giovanni Dietler, Sandor Kasas, Giovanni Longo, Francesco Simone Ruggeri, Petar Stupar

The existence of life in extreme conditions, in particular in extraterrestrial environments, is certainly one of the most intriguing scientific questions of our time. In this report, we demonstrate the use of an innovative nanoscale motion sensor in life-s ...

A Bayesian Method for Matching Two Similar Graphs without Seeds

Matthias Grossglauser, Pedram Pedarsani

Approximate graph matching (AGM) refers to the problem of mapping the vertices of two structurally similar graphs, which has applications in social networks, computer vision, chemistry, and biology. Given its computational cost, AGM has mostly been limited ...

Graph Transformations preserving the stability number

Dominique de Werra

We analyze the relations between several graph transformations that were introduced to be used in procedures determining the stability number of a graph. We show that all these transformations can be decomposed into a sequence of edge deletions and twin de ...

On coloring problems with local constraints

Yuri Faenza

We deal with some generalizations of the graph coloring problem on classes of perfect graphs. Namely we consider the μ-coloring problem (upper bounds for the color on each vertex), the precoloring extension problem (a subset of vertices colored beforehand) ...
