Dynamic graph algorithms maintain the solution to a problem (e.g., a matching) on an evolving input, i.e., a graph where nodes or edges are inserted or deleted over time. They output the value of the solution after each update operation, i.e., continuously. We study (event-level and user-level) differentially private algorithms for graph problems under continual observation, i.e., differentially private dynamic graph algorithms. We present event-level private algorithms for partially dynamic counting-based problems such as triangle count that improve the additive error by a polynomial factor (in the length T of the update sequence) on the state of the art, resulting in the first algorithms with additive error polylogarithmic in T.\r\nWe also give ε-differentially private and partially dynamic algorithms for minimum spanning tree, minimum cut, densest subgraph, and maximum matching. The additive error of our improved MST algorithm is O(W log^{3/2}T / ε), where W is the maximum weight of any edge, which, as we show, is tight up to a (√{log T} / ε)-factor. For the other problems, we present a partially-dynamic algorithm with multiplicative error (1+β) for any constant β > 0 and additive error O(W log(nW) log(T) / (ε β)). Finally, we show that the additive error for a broad class of dynamic graph algorithms with user-level privacy must be linear in the value of the output solution’s range.","lang":"eng"}],"type":"conference","conference":{"start_date":"2021-09-06","location":"Lisbon, Portual","name":"ESA: Annual European Symposium on Algorithms","end_date":"2021-09-08"},"author":[{"last_name":"Fichtenberger","full_name":"Fichtenberger, Hendrik","first_name":"Hendrik"},{"last_name":"Henzinger","full_name":"Henzinger, Monika H","orcid":"0000-0002-5008-6530","id":"540c9bbd-f2de-11ec-812d-d04a5be85630","first_name":"Monika H"},{"first_name":"Wolfgang","full_name":"Ost, Wolfgang","last_name":"Ost"}],"user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","date_created":"2022-08-12T07:04:44Z","_id":"11814","status":"public","extern":"1","article_processing_charge":"No","arxiv":1,"doi":"10.4230/LIPIcs.ESA.2021.42","publication_status":"published","title":"Differentially private algorithms for graphs under continual observation","external_id":{"arxiv":["2106.14756"]},"publication":"29th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms","publication_identifier":{"isbn":["9783959772044"],"issn":["1868-8969"]},"article_number":"42","year":"2021","publisher":"Schloss Dagstuhl - Leibniz-Zentrum für Informatik","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"main_file_link":[{"url":"https://doi.org/10.4230/LIPIcs.ESA.2021.42","open_access":"1"}],"volume":204,"fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.4230/LIPIcs.ESA.2021.42","scopus_import":"1","citation":{"apa":"Fichtenberger, H., Henzinger, M., &#38; Ost, W.
