Deterministic Massively Parallel Symmetry Breaking for Sparse Graphs

Manuela Fischer, Jeff Giliberti, Christoph Grunau

We consider the problem of designing deterministic graph algorithms for the model of Massively Parallel Computation (MPC) that improve with the sparsity of the input graph, as meas…

Fast Distributed Brooks' Theorem

Manuela Fischer, Yannic Maus, Magnús M. Halldórsson

We give a randomized -coloring algorithm in the LOCAL model that runs in rounds, where is the number of nodes of the input graph and is its max…

Exponential Speedup Over Locality in MPC with Optimal Memory

Alkida Balliu, Sebastian Brandt, Manuela Fischer +4

Locally Checkable Labeling (LCL) problems are graph problems in which a solution is correct if it satisfies some given constraints in the local neighborhood of each node. Example p…
