The Complexity of Counting Cycles in the Adjacency List Streaming Model

Summary: Characterizes sublinear-space complexity of cycle counting in the adjacency-list streaming model: provides a two-pass triangle estimator using Õ(m / T^{2/3}) space. Proves no sublinear multipass algorithms for l-cycles (l≥5); 4-cycles are intermediate—sublinear in multipass but impossible in single-pass. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
