Vertex Priority Based Butterfly Counting for Large-scale Bipartite Networks

Summary: Introduces BFC-VP, a vertex-priority paradigm for butterfly counting that enumerates substantially fewer wedges than layer-priority methods. Cache-aware, external-memory, and parallel variants preserve its complexity and deliver up to 100× speedups on real networks. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
