Faster Approximate Distance Queries and Compact Routing in Sparse Graphs
A distance oracle is a compact representation of the shortest distance matrix of a graph. It can be queried to retrieve approximate distances and corresponding paths between any p...

A Lower Bound for Testing 3-Colorability in Bounded-Degree Graphs
We consider the problem of testing 3-colorability in the bounded-degree model. We show that, for small enough ε, every tester for 3colorability must have query complexity Ω(n)....

PTAS for maximum weight independent set problem with random weights in bounded degree graphs
Finding the largest independent set in a graph is a notoriously difficult NP-complete combinatorial optimization problem. Moreover, even for graphs with largest degree 3, no polyn...

Submodular Maximization over Multiple Matroids via Generalized Exchange Properties
Submodular-function maximization is a central problem in combinatorial optimization, generalizing many important NP-hard problems including Max Cut in digraphs, graphs and hypergr...

Approximating the Degree-Bounded Minimum Diameter Spanning Tree Problem
We consider the problem of finding a minimum diameter spanning tree with maximum node degree B in a complete undirected edge-weighted graph. We provide an O( p logB n)-approximatio...
