Distributed Lower Bounds for Ruling Sets

IEEE via YouTube

Overview

Explore a comprehensive analysis of distributed lower bounds for ruling sets in this 22-minute IEEE conference talk. Delve into the state-of-the-art deterministic algorithms, examining the authors' novel results for both deterministic and randomized approaches. Gain insights into the Round Elimination technique and its application in deriving lower bounds. Investigate upper bounds for ruling sets, including problem families and color reduction concepts. Conclude with a discussion on open questions in the field, providing a thorough overview of current research in distributed computing and graph theory.
