The paper introduces an unsupervised graph neural network framework for solving the Minimum Dominating Set problem in social networks. By training on 12,000 synthetic graphs, the method achieves up to 55× faster inference than metaheuristic baselines and 14× faster than supervised approaches while producing optimal or near‑optimal dominating sets on real‑world benchmarks. The learned heuristic generalizes well to unseen graph distributions, indicating strong practical applicability for large‑scale social network analysis.

SiST‑GNN introduces a simultaneous spatial‑temporal message‑passing framework for dynamic graph neural networks, fusing per‑node temporal embeddings with spatial aggregation in a single operation. By maintaining a recurrent hidden state per node and treating it as a cross‑time edge, the model jointly reasons over topology and evolution. Experiments on link‑prediction and node‑classification benchmarks show significant improvements over prior methods, achieving up to 158% gains in live‑update link prediction and outperforming discrete‑time baselines by 7–23% in dynamic node classification.

SynCo is a synthetic graph generator that lets users control node degree distributions and sub‑community structures, addressing limitations of existing generators that rely on power‑law distributions and lack flexibility. It is evaluated on graph mimicking, hyperparameter tuning, and node clustering, outperforming state‑of‑the‑art methods while preserving original data distributions. SynCo can generate large graphs with up to 2.1 million nodes.

DeltaGNN introduces an information flow control mechanism that uses a new connectivity measure, the information flow score, to mitigate over‑smoothing and over‑squashing in Graph Neural Networks. This approach enables linear computational and memory overhead while effectively capturing both short‑range and long‑range node interactions. Experiments on ten diverse real‑world datasets demonstrate superior performance with limited computational complexity.

The paper reinterprets graph neural networks (GNNs) as retrieval-augmented models, where each layer uses an MLP on a node representation and a permutation‑invariant summary of retrieved graph context instead of traditional message passing. It introduces RTA, a lightweight MLP‑based framework that replaces structural message passing with label‑aware retrieval and propagation, and provides theoretical links to softmax‑attention message passing and robustness to mis‑retrieved outliers. Experiments on text‑attributed graph benchmarks demonstrate that RTA matches or surpasses strong GNN and graph LLM baselines while improving efficiency and robustness.

FoundAna is a GNN‑assisted foundation model designed for graph anomaly detection across diverse datasets. It combines a GNN component with a transformer encoder enhanced by four positional encodings to capture both local and global structure, using reconstruction errors as anomaly scores. Experiments on nine benchmark datasets from financial, social, and citation networks show that FoundAna consistently outperforms state‑of‑the‑art baselines.
