Fault-Tolerant Labeling and Compact Routing Schemes (2106.00374v1)

Published 1 Jun 2021 in cs.DS and cs.DC

Abstract: The paper presents fault-tolerant (FT) labeling schemes for general graphs, as well as, improved FT routing schemes. For a given $n$-vertex graph $G$ and a bound $f$ on the number of faults, an $f$-FT connectivity labeling scheme is a distributed data structure that assigns each of the graph edges and vertices a short label, such that given the labels of the vertices $s$ and $t$, and at most $f$ failing edges $F$, one can determine if $s$ and $t$ are connected in $G \setminus F$. The primary complexity measure is the length of the individual labels. Since their introduction by [Courcelle, Twigg, STACS '07], compact FT labeling schemes have been devised only for a limited collection of graph families. In this work, we fill in this gap by proposing two (independent) FT connectivity labeling schemes for general graphs, with a nearly optimal label length. This serves the basis for providing also FT approximate distance labeling schemes, and ultimately also routing schemes. Our main results for an $n$-vertex graph and a fault bound $f$ are: -- There is a randomized FT connectivity labeling scheme with a label length of $O(f+\log n)$ bits, hence optimal for $f=O(\log n)$. This scheme is based on the notion of cycle space sampling [Pritchard, Thurimella, TALG '11]. -- There is a randomized FT connectivity labeling scheme with a label length of $O(\log3 n)$ bits (independent of the number of faults $f$). This scheme is based on the notion of linear sketches of [Ahn et al., SODA '12]. -- For $k\geq 1$, there is a randomized routing scheme that routes a message from $s$ to $t$ in the presence of a set $F$ of faulty edges, with stretch $O(|F|2 k)$ and routing tables of size $\tilde{O}(f3 n{1/k})$. This significantly improves over the state-of-the-art bounds by [Chechik, ICALP '11], providing the first scheme with sub-linear FT labeling and routing schemes for general graphs.
