Exploiting Vertex Relationships in Speeding up Subgraph Isomorphism over Large Graphs

Summary: BoostIso exploits vertex relationships to prune duplicate work in backtracking-based subgraph isomorphism. Experiments on real graphs show speedups for existing algorithms, up to orders of magnitude on graphs with dense vertex relationships. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
