Zusammenfassung:Important communities are densely connected subgraphs containing vertices with high importance values, which have received wide attention recently. However, existing methods, predominantly based on the <inline-formula><tex-math notation="LaTeX">k</tex-math></inline-formula>-core model, suffer from limitations such as rigid degree constraints and suboptimal density, often failing to capture highly important vertices. To address these limitations, we propose a new community model based on pseudoarboricity that guarantees near-optimal density while preserving important vertices. Further, we introduce a novel problem of Psudoarboricity-based Skyline Important Community (PSIC), which uniquely treats density and importance as independent attributes. To efficiently address PSIC, we first devise a basic algorithm climbStairs, which iteratively refines communities by peeling vertices with low importance. To boost efficiency, we develop an advanced algorithm DivAndCon, which employs a recursive divide-and-conquer strategy combined with weight-based and pseudoarboricity-based pruning techniques, significantly reducing the search space. For massive graphs with billions of edges, inspired by a recursive division tree, we develop several parallel algorithms utilizing thread-pool and free-synchronization mechanism. Finally, we conduct extensive experiments on 10 real-world networks, and the results demonstrate the superiority of our solutions in terms of effectiveness, efficiency, and scalability.
