Graph Algorithms in the Language of Linear Algebra

The current exponential growth in graph data has forced a shift to parallel computing for executing graph algorithms. Implementing parallel graph algorithms and achieving good parallel performance have proven difficult. This book addresses these challenges by exploiting the well-known duality between a canonical representation of graphs as abstract collections of vertices and edges and a sparse adjacency matrix representation. This linear algebraic approach is widely accessible to scientists and engineers who may not be formally trained in computer science. The authors show how to leverage existing parallel matrix computation techniques and the large amount of software infrastructure that exists for these computations to implement efficient and scalable parallel graph algorithms. The benefits of this approach are reduced algorithmic complexity, ease of implementation, and improved performance.
Algebraic Graph Algorithms

This textbook discusses the design and implementation of basic algebraic graph algorithms, and algebraic graph algorithms for complex networks, employing matroids whenever possible. The text describes the design of a simple parallel matrix algorithm kernel that can be used for parallel processing of algebraic graph algorithms. Example code is presented in pseudocode, together with case studies in Python and MPI. The text assumes readers have a background in graph theory and/or graph algorithms.
