Abstract. The distributed complexity of computing a maximal independent set in a graph is of both practical and theoretical importance. While there exists an elegant O(log n) time ...

We find the maximum number of maximal independent sets in two families of graphs. The first family consists of all graphs with n vertices and at most r cycles. The second family i...

We present the first local approximation schemes for maximum independent set and minimum vertex cover in unit disk graphs. In the graph model we assume that each node knows its geo...
We present a novel distributed algorithm for the maximal independent set (MIS) problem.1 On bounded-independence graphs (BIG) our deterministic algorithm finishes in O(log n) time,...
This work is motivated by the long-standing open problem of designing a polynomial-time algorithm that with high probability constructs an asymptotically maximum independent set in...
