Most of real-world graphs are dynamic , i.e., they change over time. However, while the regression problem has been studied for static graphs, it has not been investigated for dynamic graphs, yet. In the current paper, first we present the notion of update-efficient matrix embedding that defines the conditions sufficient for a matrix embedding to be used for the dynamic graph regression problem, efficiently. We also show that some of the standard matrix embeddings, e.g., the (weighted) adjacency matrix, satisfy these conditions. Then, we prove that given an @math update-efficient matrix embedding, after an update operation in the graph, the optimal solution of the graph regression problem for the revised graph can be computed in @math time. In particular, using the (weighted) adjacency matrix as the matrix embedding of @math , it takes @math time to update the optimal solution, where @math is the number of nodes of the revised graph. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first result on updating the solution of the graph regression problem, in a time considerably less than the time of computing the solution from the scratch. Finally, we study a generalization of the dynamic graph regression problem and show that it can be solved in @math space.
More recent algorithms are mostly methods for learning embeddings (representations) for nodes or subgraphs of a graph @cite_7 , @cite_14 , @cite_1 , even though learning embeddings for a graph dates back to several decades ago. For example, @cite_10 presented vector embeddings for nodes of a graph such that the inner product of the vector embeddings of any two nodes @math and @math is negative iff @math and @math are connected by an edge; and it is @math otherwise. They also studied the least embedding size @math , necessary for satisfying such a property.

We propose a fast methodology for encoding graphs with information-theoretically minimum numbers of bits. Specifically, a graph with property @math is called a @math -graph . If @math satisfies certain properties, then an n-node m-edge @math -graph G can be encoded by a binary string X such that (1) G and X can be obtained from each other in O(n log n) time, and (2) X has at most @math bits for any continuous superadditive function @math so that there are at most @math distinct @math -node @math -graphs. The methodology is applicable to general classes of graphs; this paper focuses on planar graphs. Examples of such @math include all conjunctions over the following groups of properties: (1) G is a planar graph or a plane graph; (2) @math is directed or undirected; (3) @math is triangulated, triconnected, biconnected, merely connected, or not required to be connected; (4) the nodes of G are labeled with labels from @math for @math ; (5) the edges of G are labeled with labels from @math for @math ; and (6) each node (respectively, edge) of G has at most @math self-loops (respectively, @math multiple edges). Moreover, @math and @math are not required to be O(1) for the cases of @math being a plane triangulation. These examples are novel applications of small cycle separators of planar graphs and are the only nontrivial classes of graphs, other than rooted trees, with known polynomial-time information-theoretically optimal coding schemes. We show that every weighted connected graph @math contains as a subgraph a spanning tree into which the edges of @math can be embedded with average stretch @math . Moreover, we show that this tree can be constructed in time @math in general, and in time @math if the input graph is unweighted. The main ingredient in our construction is a novel graph decomposition technique. Our new algorithm can be immediately used to improve the running time of the recent solver for symmetric diagonally dominant linear systems of Spielman and Teng from @math to @math , and to @math when the system is planar. Our result can also be used to improve several earlier approximation algorithms that use low-stretch spanning trees. We give an approximation algorithm for non-uniform sparsest cut with the following guarantee: For any @math , given cost and demand graphs with edge weights @math respectively, we can find a set @math with @math at most @math times the optimal non-uniform sparsest cut value, in time @math provided @math . Here @math is the @math 'th smallest generalized eigenvalue of the Laplacian matrices of cost and demand graphs; @math (resp. @math ) is the weight of edges crossing the @math cut in cost (resp. demand) graph and @math is the sparsity of the optimal cut. In words, we show that the non-uniform sparsest cut problem is easy when the generalized spectrum grows moderately fast. To the best of our knowledge, there were no results based on higher order spectra for non-uniform sparsest cut prior to this work. Even for uniform sparsest cut, the quantitative aspects of our result are somewhat stronger than previous methods. Similar results hold for other expansion measures like edge expansion, normalized cut, and conductance, with the @math 'th smallest eigenvalue of the normalized Laplacian playing the role of @math in the latter two cases. Our proof is based on an l1-embedding of vectors from a semi-definite program from the Lasserre hierarchy. The embedded vectors are then rounded to a cut using standard threshold rounding. We hope that the ideas connecting @math -embeddings to Lasserre SDPs will find other applications. Another aspect of the analysis is the adaptation of the column selection paradigm from our earlier work on rounding Lasserre SDPs [GS11] to pick a set of edges rather than vertices. This feature is important in order to extend the algorithms to non-uniform sparsest cut. We consider the problem of finding a minimum edge cost subgraph of a graph satisfying both given node-connectivity requirements and degree upper bounds on nodes. We present an iterative rounding algorithm of the biset linear programming relaxation for this problem. For directed graphs and @math -out-connectivity requirements from a root, our algorithm computes a solution that is a 2-approximation on the cost, and the degree of each node @math in the solution is at most @math , where @math is the degree upper bound on @math . For undirected graphs and element-connectivity requirements with maximum connectivity requirement @math , our algorithm computes a solution that is a @math -approximation on the cost, and the degree of each node @math in the solution is at most @math . These ratios improve the previous @math -approximation on the cost and @math -approximation on the degrees. Our algorithms can be used to improve approximation ratios for other node-connectivity problems such as undirected $k...
