Title
Testing connectivity of faulty networks in sublinear time
Abstract
Given a set F of vertices of a connected graph G, we study the problem of testing the connectivity of G-F in polynomial time with respect to |F| and the maximum degree @D of G. We present two approaches. The first algorithm for this problem runs in O(|F|@D^2@e^-^1log(|F|@D@e^-^1)) time for every graph G with vertex expansion at least @e0. The other solution, designed for the class of graphs with cycle basis consisting of cycles of length at most l, leads to O(|F|@D^@?^l^/^2^@?log(|F|@D^@?^l^/^2^@?)) running time. We also present an extension of this method to test the biconnectivity of G-F in O(|F|@D^llog(|F|@D^l)) time.
