In this paper we consider graph algorithms in models of computation where the space usage (random accessible storage, in addition to the read only input) is sublinear in the number of edges $m$ and the access to input data is constrained. These questions arises in many natural settings, and in particular in the analysis of MapReduce or similar algorithms that model constrained parallelism with sublinear central processing. In SPAA 2011, Lattanzi etal. provided a $O(1)$ approximation of maximum matching using $O(p)$ rounds of iterative filtering via mapreduce and $O(n^{1+1/p})$ space of central processing for a graph with $n$ nodes and $m$ edges. We focus on weighted nonbipartite maximum matching in this paper. For any constant $p>1$, we provide an iterative sampling based algorithm for computing a $(1-epsilon)$-approximation of the weighted nonbipartite maximum matching that uses $O(p/epsilon)$ rounds of sampling, and $O(n^{1+1/p})$ space. The results extends to $b$-Matching with small changes. This paper combines adaptive sketching literature and fast primal-dual algorithms based on relaxed Dantzig-Wolfe decision procedures. Each round of sampling is implemented through linear sketches and executed in a single round of MapReduce. The paper also proves that nonstandard linear relaxations of a problem, in particular penalty based formulations, are helpful in mapreduce and similar settings in reducing the adaptive dependence of the iterations.

We study streaming submodular maximization subject to matching/$b$-matching constraints (MSM/MSbM), and present improved upper and lower bounds for these problems. On the upper bounds front, we give primal-dual algorithms achieving the following appr
oximation ratios. $bullet$ $3+2sqrt{2}approx 5.828$ for monotone MSM, improving the previous best ratio of $7.75$. $bullet$ $4+3sqrt{2}approx 7.464$ for non-monotone MSM, improving the previous best ratio of $9.899$. $bullet$ $3+epsilon$ for maximum weight b-matching, improving the previous best ratio of $4+epsilon$. On the lower bounds front, we improve on the previous best lower bound of $frac{e}{e-1}approx 1.582$ for MSM, and show ETH-based lower bounds of $approx 1.914$ for polytime monotone MSM streaming algorithms. Our most substantial contributions are our algorithmic techniques. We show that the (randomized) primal-dual method, which originated in the study of maximum weight matching (MWM), is also useful in the context of MSM. To our knowledge, this is the first use of primal-dual based analysis for streaming submodular optimization. We also show how to reinterpret previous algorithms for MSM in our framework; hence, we hope our work is a step towards unifying old and new techniques for streaming submodular maximization, and that it paves the way for further new results.
This paper gives poly-logarithmic-round, distributed D-approximation algorithms for covering problems with submodular cost and monotone covering constraints (Submodular-cost Covering). The approximation ratio D is the maximum number of variables in a
ny constraint. Special cases include Covering Mixed Integer Linear Programs (CMIP), and Weighted Vertex Cover (with D=2). Via duality, the paper also gives poly-logarithmic-round, distributed D-approximation algorithms for Fractional Packing linear programs (where D is the maximum number of constraints in which any variable occurs), and for Max Weighted c-Matching in hypergraphs (where D is the maximum size of any of the hyperedges; for graphs D=2). The paper also gives parallel (RNC) 2-approximation algorithms for CMIP with two variables per constraint and Weighted Vertex Cover. The algorithms are randomized. All of the approximation ratios exactly match those of comparable centralized algorithms.
The importance of an adequate inner loop starting point (as opposed to a sufficient inner loop stopping rule) is discussed in the context of a numerical optimization algorithm consisting of nested primal-dual proximal-gradient iterations. While the n
umber of inner iterations is fixed in advance, convergence of the whole algorithm is still guaranteed by virtue of a warm-start strategy for the inner loop, showing that inner loop starting rules can be just as effective as stopping rules for guaranteeing convergence. The algorithm itself is applicable to the numerical solution of convex optimization problems defined by the sum of a differentiable term and two possibly non-differentiable terms. One of the latter terms should take the form of the composition of a linear map and a proximable function, while the differentiable term needs an accessible gradient. The algorithm reduces to the classical proximal gradient algorithm in certain special cases and it also generalizes other existing algorithms. In addition, under some conditions of strong convexity, we show a linear rate of convergence.
We study two variants of textsc{Maximum Cut}, which we call textsc{Connected Maximum Cut} and textsc{Maximum Minimal Cut}, in this paper. In these problems, given an unweighted graph, the goal is to compute a maximum cut satisfying some connectivity
requirements. Both problems are known to be NP-complete even on planar graphs whereas textsc{Maximum Cut} on planar graphs is solvable in polynomial time. We first show that these problems are NP-complete even on planar bipartite graphs and split graphs. Then we give parameterized algorithms using graph parameters such as clique-width, tree-width, and twin-cover number. Finally, we obtain FPT algorithms with respect to the solution size.
The problem of finding a maximum size matching in a graph (known as the maximum matching problem) is one of the most classical problems in computer science. Despite a significant body of work dedicated to the study of this problem in the data stream
model, the state-of-the-art single-pass semi-streaming algorithm for it is still a simple greedy algorithm that computes a maximal matching, and this way obtains 1/2-approximation. Some previous works described two/three-pass algorithms that improve over this approximation ratio by using their second and third passes to improve the above mentioned maximal matching. One contribution of this paper continuous this line of work by presenting new three-pass semi-streaming algorithms that work along these lines and obtain improved approximation ratios of 0.6111 and 0.5694 for triangle-free and general graphs, respectively. Unfortunately, a recent work (Konrad and Naidu, 2021) shows that the strategy of constructing a maximal matching in the first pass and then improving it in further passes has limitations. Additionally, this technique is unlikely to get us closer to single-pass semi-streaming algorithms obtaining a better than 1/2-approximation. Therefore, it is interesting to come up with algorithms that do something else with their first pass (we term such algorithms non-maximal-matching-first algorithms). No such algorithms are currently known (to the best of our knowledge), and the main contribution of this paper is describing such algorithms that obtain approximation ratios of 0.5384 and 0.5555 in two and three passes, respectively, for general graphs (the result for three passes improves over the previous state-of-the-art, but is worse than the result of this paper mentioned in the previous paragraph for general graphs).
