Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have shown that for an undirected graph with n vertices and m edges, Depth-First Search (DFS) is possible using n+o(n) bits of memory. For a directed acyclic graph, DFS is possible using n/[exp(Omega(root(log n))) ] bits of memory. We have also obtained similar results for several other graph problems. Recently, researchers are finding more and more interesting connections between Exponential-Time Hypothesis (ETH) and the time complexity of polynomial-time solvable problems. For example, it is now known that ETH implies that a truly sub-cubic algorithm does *not* exist for a certain graph problem. Our results above seem to suggest that we should investigate space-complexity analogues of this phenomena: What are the consequences of the conjecture "Problem A requires linear space" ?
