Recent work has focused on the regime in which machines have sublinear (in n, the number of nodes in the input graph) space, with randomized algorithms presented for the fundamental problems of Maximal Matching and Maximal Independent Set. However, there have been no prior corresponding deterministic algorithms. A major challenge underlying the sublinear space setting is that the local space of each machine might be too small to store all edges incident to a single node. This poses a considerable obstacle compared to classical models in which each node is assumed to know and have easy access to its incident edges. To overcome this barrier, we introduce a new graph sparsification technique that deterministically computes a low-degree subgraph, with the additional property that solving the problem on this subgraph provides significant progress towards solving the problem for the original input graph. Using this framework to derandomize the well-known algorithm of Luby [SICOMP’86], we obtain O(log Δ + log log n)-round deterministic MPC algorithms for solving the problems of Maximal Matching and Maximal Independent Set with O(nɛ) space on each machine for any constant ɛ > 0. These algorithms also run in O(log Δ) rounds in the closely related model of CONGESTED CLIQUE, improving upon the state-of-the-art bound of O(log 2Δ) rounds by Censor-Hillel et al. [DISC’17]."}],"main_file_link":[{"url":"https://arxiv.org/abs/1912.05390","open_access":"1"}],"file":[{"content_type":"application/pdf","file_name":"MISMM-arxiv.pdf","creator":"pdavies","access_level":"open_access","relation":"main_file","checksum":"a21c627683890c309a68f6389302c408","file_id":"9542","success":1,"date_created":"2021-06-10T19:33:56Z","file_size":587404,"date_updated":"2021-06-10T19:33:56Z"}],"type":"journal_article","day":"01","article_processing_charge":"No","month":"06","date_updated":"2024-02-28T12:53:09Z","acknowledgement":"Institute of Science and Technology Austria (IST Austria).
