Computing A Near-Maximum Independent Set in Linear Time by Reducing-Peeling
Summary: Introducing Reducing-Peeling, a linear-time framework that builds large independent sets by reducing low-degree vertices and peeling high-degree ones when needed. LinearTime and NearLinear apply novel reduction rules to beat prior linear-time MIS methods and accelerate iterated local search. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
