We study the k-wise independent relaxation of the usual model G(N, p) of random graphs where, as in this model, N labeled vertices are fixed and each edge is drawn with probabili...
In this paper, we set forth a new algorithm for generating approximately uniformly random spanning trees in undirected graphs. We show how to sample from a distribution that is wi...
We study the problem of local search on a graph. Given a real-valued black-box function f on the graph's vertices, this is the problem of determining a local minimum of f--a v...
Many applications of social networks require relationship anonymity due to the sensitive, stigmatizing, or confidential nature of relationship. Recent work showed that the simple ...
Although PageRank has been designed to estimate the popularity of Web pages, it is a general algorithm that can be applied to the analysis of other graphs other than one of hypert...
