Abstract

Bisimplicial edges in bipartite graphs are closely related to pivots in Gaussian elimination that avoid turning zeroes into non-zeroes. We present a new deterministic algorithm to nd such edges in bipartite graphs. The expected time complexity of our new algorithm is $O(n^2 \log n)$ on random bipartite graphs in which each edge is present with a fixed probability p, a polynomial improvement over the fastest algorithm found in the existing literature.
