Fast Algorithms for Core Maximization on Large Graphs
Summary: FastCM+ accelerates NP/APX-hard k-core maximization by partitioning the (k−1)-shell, modeling complete/partial (k−λ)-shell conversions, and combining component gains via dynamic programming. Across 11 datasets, it is faster and achieves larger cores than prior heuristics. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
