图流中的独立集大小近似

Independent Set Size Approximation in Graph Streams

Graham Cormode, Jacques Dark, Christian Konrad

摘要:

研究了由边流定义的图$G$中独立集的大小估计问题。我们的方法依赖于Caro-Wei界,该界表示所需的量,用节点的度的倒数的和表示,用$β(G)$表示。我们的研究结果表明,$β(G)$可以准确地近似,根据$β$提供的下限。更强的结果是可能的,当边缘承诺到达由一个事件节点分组。在这种情况下,我们得到的值最多是$β$的真实值的对数因子,并且不超过真实的独立集大小。为了证明这个界限的形式,我们还显示了一个$Ω(n/β)$下界的任何算法,近似$β$到一个常数因子。

英文摘要:

We study the problem of estimating the size of independent sets in a graph $G$ defined by a stream of edges. Our approach relies on the Caro-Wei bound, which expresses the desired quantity in terms of a sum over nodes of the reciprocal of their degrees, denoted by $β(G)$. Our results show that $β(G)$ can be approximated accurately, based on a provided lower bound on $β$. Stronger results are possible when the edges are promised to arrive grouped by an incident node. In this setting, we obtain a value that is at most a logarithmic factor below the true value of $β$ and no more than the true independent set size. To justify the form of this bound, we also show an $Ω(n/β)$ lower bound on any algorithm that approximates $β$ up to a constant factor.
