Parallel Batch-Dynamic Maximal Independent Set
arXiv:2604.07515v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We develop the first theoretically-efficient algorithm for maintaining the maximal independent set (MIS) of a graph in the parallel batch-dynamic setting. In this setting, a graph is updated with batches of edge insertions/deletions, and for each batch a parallel algorithm updates the maximal independent set to agree with the new graph. A batch-dynamic algorithm is considered efficient if it is work efficient (i.e., does no more asymptotic work than applying the updates sequentially) […]
