Dynamic PageRank: Algorithms and Lower Bounds

Abstract

We consider the PageRank problem in the dynamic setting, where the goal is to explicitly maintain an approximate PageRank vector π ∈ ℝⁿ for a graph under a sequence of edge insertions and deletions. Our main result is a complete characterization of the complexity of dynamic PageRank maintenance for both multiplicative and additive (L₁) approximations. First, we establish matching lower and upper bounds for maintaining additive approximate PageRank in both incremental and decremental settings. In particular, we demonstrate that in the worst-case (1/α)^{Θ(log log n)} update time is necessary and sufficient for this problem, where α is the desired additive approximation. On the other hand, we demonstrate that the commonly employed ForwardPush approach performs substantially worse than this optimal runtime. Specifically, we show that ForwardPush requires Ω(n^{1-δ}) time per update on average, for any δ > 0, even in the incremental setting. For multiplicative approximations, however, we demonstrate that the situation is significantly more challenging. Specifically, we prove that any algorithm that explicitly maintains a constant factor multiplicative approximation of the PageRank vector of a directed graph must have amortized update time Ω(n^{1-δ}), for any δ > 0, even in the incremental setting, thereby resolving a 13-year old open question of Bahmani et al. (VLDB 2010). This sharply contrasts with the undirected setting, where we show that poly log n update time is feasible, even in the fully dynamic setting under oblivious adversary.

Fully Dynamic MIS in Uniformly Sparse Graphs

Authors: Krzysztof Onak, Baruch Schieber, Shay Solomon, and Nicole Wein

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 107, 45th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2018)

Abstract

We consider the problem of maintaining a maximal independent set (MIS) in a dynamic graph subject to edge insertions and deletions. Recently, Assadi, Onak, Schieber and Solomon (STOC 2018) showed that an MIS can be maintained in sublinear (in the dynamically changing number of edges) amortized update time. In this paper we significantly improve the update time for uniformly sparse graphs. Specifically, for graphs with arboricity alpha, the amortized update time of our algorithm is O(alpha^2 * log^2 n), where n is the number of vertices. For low arboricity graphs, which include, for example, minor-free graphs as well as some classes of "real world" graphs, our update time is polylogarithmic. Our update time improves the result of Assadi et al. for all graphs with arboricity bounded by m^{3/8 - epsilon}, for any constant epsilon > 0. This covers much of the range of possible values for arboricity, as the arboricity of a general graph cannot exceed m^{1/2}.
