Low-congestion shortcut and graph parameters

Shrnutí:Distributed graph algorithms in the standard CONGEST model often exhibit the time-complexity lower bound of Ω ~ ( n + D ) rounds for several global problems, where n denotes the number of nodes and D the diameter of the input graph. Because such a lower bound is derived from special “hard-core” instances, it does not necessarily apply to specific popular graph classes such as planar graphs. The concept of low-congestion shortcuts was initiated by Ghaffari and Haeupler [SODA2016] for addressing the design of CONGEST algorithms running fast in restricted network topologies. In particular, given a graph class C , an f -round algorithm for constructing shortcuts of quality q for any instance in C results in O ~ ( q + f ) -round algorithms for solving several fundamental graph problems such as minimum spanning tree and minimum cut, for C . The main interest on this line is to identify the graph classes allowing the shortcuts that are efficient in the sense of breaking O ~ ( n + D ) -round general lower bounds. In this study, we consider the relationship between the quality of low-congestion shortcuts and the following four major graph parameters: doubling dimension, chordality, diameter, and clique-width. The key ingredient of the upper-bound side is a novel shortcut construction technique known as short-hop extension , which might be of independent interest.
