The local complexity of certifying parity

Nicolas Bousquet, Laurent Feuilloley, Jorge Valenzuela +1

In this paper, we consider the problem of locally certifying that the size of a network is even, or more generally, congruent to some fixed number. The parity property is one of th…

Renaming in distributed certification

Nicolas Bousquet, Louis Esperet, Laurent Feuilloley +1

Local certification is the area of distributed network computing asking the following question: How to certify to the nodes of a network that a global property holds, if they are l…

Shallow brambles

Nicolas Bousquet, Wouter Cames van Batenburg, Louis Esperet +2

A graph class has polynomial expansion if there is a polynomial function such that for every graph , each of the depth- minors of has ave…

Complexity landscape for local certification

Nicolas Bousquet, Laurent Feuilloley, Sébastien Zeitoun

An impressive recent line of work has charted the complexity landscape of distributed graph algorithms. For many settings, it has been determined which time complexities exist, and…

A subquadratic certification scheme for P5-free graphs

Nicolas Bousquet, Sébastien Zeitoun

In local certification, vertices of a -vertex graph perform a local verification to check if a given property is satisfied by the graph. This verification is performed thanks to…

A note on locating-dominating sets in twin-free graphs

Nicolas Bousquet, Quentin Chuet, Victor Falgas-Ravry +2

In this short note, we prove that every twin-free graph on vertices contains a locating-dominating set of size at most . This improves the earlier bou…
