Gromov-Monge Flow Matching for Equivariant Graph Generation

The paper introduces Gromov-Monge Flow Matching, a method that incorporates permutation-equivariance into generative graph models by aligning graph pairs up to node relabeling using the Gromov–Monge distance. It shows theoretically that quotient couplings can be lifted to aligned representatives without extra cost and that symmetrization yields equivariant flow-matching minimizers, even for categorical endpoints. Practically, the authors build minibatch couplings with Gromov–Wasserstein relaxations and optional outer assignments, improving sample quality in continuous graph and categorical molecular generation while remaining compatible with standard equivariant architectures.

Chaining 2-FWL GNNs for Combinatorial Graph Alignment

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.
