In spite of its ubiquity, maintaining personalized PageRank vectors when the underlying network constantly evolves is still a challenging task. To address this limitation, this work proposes a novel distributed algorithm to locally update personalized PageRank vectors when the graph topology changes. The proposed algorithm is based on the use of Chebyshev polynomials and a novel update equation that encompasses a large family of PageRank-based methods. In particular, the algorithm has the following advantages: (i) it has faster convergence speed than state-of-the-art alternatives for local PageRank updating; and (ii) it can update the solution of recent generalizations of PageRank for which no updating algorithms have been developed. Experiments in a real-world temporal network of an autonomous system validate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2110.02538v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2110.02538v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"a-local-updating-algorithm-for-personalized","repo_url":"https://github.com/estbautista/pagerank_updating_chebyshev_paper","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
