Approximate proof labeling schemes were introduced by \\Censor-Hillel, Paz and Perry \cite{CPP}. Roughly speaking, a graph property~$\cP$ can be verified by an approximate proof labeling scheme in constant-time if the vertices of a graph having the property can be convinced, in a short period of time not depending on the size of the graph, that they are having the property $\cP$ or at least they are not far from being having the property $\cP$. The main result of this paper is that bounded-degree planar graphs (and also outer-planar graphs, bounded genus graphs, knotlessly embeddable graphs etc.) can be verified by an approximate proof labeling scheme in constant-time., Comment: 18 pages, the title has changed, to appear in Journal of Combinatorial Theory A

Recently, Goldreich introduced the notion of property testing of bounded-degree graphs with an unknown distribution. We propose a slight modification of his idea: the Radon-Nikodym Oracles. Using these oracles any reasonable graph property can be tested in constant-time against any reasonable unknown distribution in the category of planar graphs. We also discuss Randomized Local Distributed Algorithms, which work on very large graphs with unknown distributions. Finally, we discuss how can we learn graph properties using observations instead of samplings., Comment: Change in the title. The property testing process is explained in details, some short sections are added, the exposition is made more reader friendly. 22 pages

The goal of the paper is to lay the foundation for the qualitative analogue of the classical, quantitative sparse graph limit theory. In the first part of the paper we introduce the qualitative analogues of the Benjamini-Schramm and local-global graph limit theories for sparse graphs. The natural limit objects are continuous actions of finitely generated groups on totally disconnected compact metric spaces. We prove that the space of weak equivalent classes of free Cantor actions is compact and contains a smallest element, as in the measurable case. We will introduce and study various notions of almost finiteness, the qualitative analogue of hyperfiniteness, for classes of bounded degree graphs. We prove the almost finiteness of a new class of \'etale groupoids associated to Cantor actions and construct an example of a nonamenable, almost finite totally disconnected \'etale groupoid, answering a query of Suzuki. Motivated by the notions and results on qualitative graph limits, in the second part of our paper we give a precise definition of constant-time distributed algorithms on sparse graphs. We construct such constant-time algorithms for various approximation problems for hyperfinite and almost finite graph classes. We also prove the Hausdorff convergence of the spectra of convergent graph sequences in the strongly almost finite category., Comment: Typos are corrected, references and the converse of the statement of Prop. 5.2 are added

In this paper we develop a measure-theoretic method to treat problems in hypergraph theory. Our central theorem is a correspondence principle between three objects: an increasing hypergraph sequence, a measurable set in an ultraproduct space and a measurable set in a finite dimensional Lebesgue space. Using this correspondence principle we build up the theory of dense hypergraphs from scratch. Along these lines we give new proofs for the Hypergraph Removal Lemma, the Hypergraph Regularity Lemma, the Counting Lemma and the Testability of Hereditary Hypergraph Properties. We prove various new results including a strengthening of the Regularity Lemma and an Inverse Counting Lemma. We also prove the equivalence of various notions for convergence of hypergraphs and we construct limit objects for such sequences. We prove that the limit objects are unique up to a certain family of measure preserving transformations. As our main tool we study the integral and measure theory on the ultraproduct of finite measure spaces which is interesting on its own right.

Hyperfiniteness or amenability of measurable equivalence relations and group actions has been studied for almost fifty years. Recently, unexpected applications of hyperfiniteness were found in computer science in the context of testability of graph properties. In this paper we propose a unified approach to hyperfiniteness. We establish some new results and give new proofs of theorems of Schramm, Lovász, Newman–Sohler and Ornstein–Weiss.

We introduce the notion of sofic measurable equivalence relations. Using them we prove that Connes' Embedding Conjecture as well as the Measurable Determinant Conjecture of Lück, Sauer and Wegner hold for treeable equivalence relations.

Organosilaboranes are both synthetically and pharmaceutically important building blocks, yet feedstock hydrosilanes have rarely been utilized as starting materials in their synthesis. Herein, a one-pot synthesis of (borylmethyl)silanes is described. This approach involves the ruthenium-catalyzed Si–H insertion of redox-active Nhydroxyphthalimidyldiazoacetate (NHPI-DA) followed by decarboxylative borylation. Using this strategy, an unprecedented wide range of alkyl-, aryl- and alkoxyhydrosilanes have been transformed into the corresponding (borylmethyl)silanes. This protocol unlocks the exploration of advanced synthetic intermediates equipped with geminal boron and silicon orthogonal functionalization handles.
