arXiv:2510. 03086v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: For the combinatorial graph alignment problem (GAP) -- finding the node correspondence that maximizes the number of common edges (nce) between two unlabeled graphs -- properly initialized FAQ remains a strong classical baseline, while existing GNN approaches struggle in the purely structural setting.

The paper investigates how alignment—both outer (choosing which graphs to pair) and inner (aligning node representatives)—affects permutation-equivariant graph flow matching. It connects inner alignment to transport on the graph quotient space and shows that quotient couplings can be lifted to aligned representatives, while symmetrization yields equivariant flow‑matching minimizers. Experiments on continuous graph and molecular generation demonstrate that appropriate alignment can simplify trajectories and improve few‑step generation, though the benefits vary with the type of alignment and computational budget.
