Maintaining maximal independent set in dynamic graph is a fundamental open problem in graph theory and the first sublinear time deterministic algorithm was came up by Assadi, Onak, Schieber and Solomon(STOC18), which achieves $O(m^{3/4})$ amortized update time. We have two main contributions in this paper. We present a new simple deterministic algorithm with $O(m^{2/3}sqrt{log m})$ amortized update time, which improves the previous best result. And we also present the first randomized algorithm with expected $O(sqrt{m}log^{1.5}m)$ amortized time against an oblivious adversary.

We present the first algorithm for maintaining a maximal independent set (MIS) of a fully dynamic graph---which undergoes both edge insertions and deletions---in polylogarithmic time. Our algorithm is randomized and, per update, takes $O(log^2 Delta cdot log^2 n)$ expected time. Furthermore, the algorithm can be adjusted to have $O(log^2 Delta cdot log^4 n)$ worst-case update-time with high probability. Here, $n$ denotes the number of vertices and $Delta$ is the maximum degree in the graph. The MIS problem in fully dynamic graphs has attracted significant attention after a breakthrough result of Assadi, Onak, Schieber, and Solomon [STOC18] who presented an algorithm with $O(m^{3/4})$ update-time (and thus broke the natural $Omega(m)$ barrier) where $m$ denotes the number of edges in the graph. This result was improved in a series of subsequent papers, though, the update-time remained polynomial. In particular, the fastest algorithm prior to our work had $widetilde{O}(min{sqrt{n}, m^{1/3}})$ update-time [Assadi et al. SODA19]. Our algorithm maintains the lexicographically first MIS over a random order of the vertices. As a result, the same algorithm also maintains a 3-approximation of correlation clustering. We also show that a simpler variant of our algorithm can be used to maintain a random-order lexicographically first maximal matching in the same update-time.
Maximal independent set (MIS), maximal matching (MM), and $(Delta+1)$-coloring in graphs of maximum degree $Delta$ are among the most prominent algorithmic graph theory problems. They are all solvable by a simple linear-time greedy algorithm and up u ntil very recently this constituted the state-of-the-art. In SODA 2019, Assadi, Chen, and Khanna gave a randomized algorithm for $(Delta+1)$-coloring that runs in $widetilde{O}(nsqrt{n})$ time, which even for moderately dense graphs is sublinear in the input size. The work of Assadi et al. however contained a spoiler for MIS and MM: neither problems provably admits a sublinear-time algorithm in general graphs. In this work, we dig deeper into the possibility of achieving sublinear-time algorithms for MIS and MM. The neighborhood independence number of a graph $G$, denoted by $beta(G)$, is the size of the largest independent set in the neighborhood of any vertex. We identify $beta(G)$ as the ``right parameter to measure the runtime of MIS and MM algorithms: Although graphs of bounded neighborhood independence may be very dense (clique is one example), we prove that carefully chosen variants of greedy algorithms for MIS and MM run in $O(nbeta(G))$ and $O(nlog{n}cdotbeta(G))$ time respectively on any $n$-vertex graph $G$. We complement this positive result by observing that a simple extension of the lower bound of Assadi et.al. implies that $Omega(nbeta(G))$ time is also necessary for any algorithm to either problem for all values of $beta(G)$ from $1$ to $Theta(n)$. We note that our algorithm for MIS is deterministic while for MM we use randomization which we prove is unavoidable: any deterministic algorithm for MM requires $Omega(n^2)$ time even for $beta(G) = 2$.
We present fully dynamic approximation algorithms for the Maximum Independent Set problem on several types of geometric objects: intervals on the real line, arbitrary axis-aligned squares in the plane and axis-aligned $d$-dimensional hypercubes. It is known that a maximum independent set of a collection of $n$ intervals can be found in $O(nlog n)$ time, while it is already textsf{NP}-hard for a set of unit squares. Moreover, the problem is inapproximable on many important graph families, but admits a textsf{PTAS} for a set of arbitrary pseudo-disks. Therefore, a fundamental question in computational geometry is whether it is possible to maintain an approximate maximum independent set in a set of dynamic geometric objects, in truly sublinear time per insertion or deletion. In this work, we answer this question in the affirmative for intervals, squares and hypercubes. First, we show that for intervals a $(1+varepsilon)$-approximate maximum independent set can be maintained with logarithmic worst-case update time. This is achieved by maintaining a locally optimal solution using a constant number of constant-size exchanges per update. We then show how our interval structure can be used to design a data structure for maintaining an expected constant factor approximate maximum independent set of axis-aligned squares in the plane, with polylogarithmic amortized update time. Our approach generalizes to $d$-dimensional hypercubes, providing a $O(4^d)$-approximation with polylogarithmic update time. Those are the first approximation algorithms for any set of dynamic arbitrary size geometric objects; previous results required bounded size ratios to obtain polylogarithmic update time. Furthermore, it is known that our results for squares (and hypercubes) cannot be improved to a $(1+varepsilon)$-approximation with the same update time.
We present a practically efficient algorithm for maintaining a global minimum cut in large dynamic graphs under both edge insertions and deletions. While there has been theoretical work on this problem, our algorithm is the first implementation of a fully-dynamic algorithm. The algorithm uses the theoretical foundation and combines it with efficient and finely-tuned implementations to give an algorithm that can maintain the global minimum cut of a graph with rapid update times. We show that our algorithm gives up to multiple orders of magnitude speedup compared to static approaches both on edge insertions and deletions.
The maximum independent set problem is one of the most important problems in graph algorithms and has been extensively studied in the line of research on the worst-case analysis of exact algorithms for NP-hard problems. In the weighted version, each vertex in the graph is associated with a weight and we are going to find an independent set of maximum total vertex weight. In this paper, we design several reduction rules and a fast exact algorithm for the maximum weighted independent set problem, and use the measure-and-conquer technique to analyze the running time bound of the algorithm. Our algorithm works on general weighted graphs and it has a good running time bound on sparse graphs. If the graph has an average degree at most 3, our algorithm runs in $O^*(1.1443^n)$ time and polynomial space, improving previous running time bounds for the problem in cubic graphs using polynomial space.
