Abstract: We extend Babai’s quasipolynomial-time graph isomorphism test (STOC 2016) and develop a quasipolynomial-time algorithm for the multiple-coset isomorphism problem. The algorithm for the multiple-coset isomorphism problem allows to exploit graph decompositions of the given input graphs within Babai’s group-theoretic framework. We use it to develop a graph isomorphism test that runs in time $n^{\operatorname{polylog}(k)}$ where $n$ is the number of vertices and $k$ is the minimum treewidth of the given graphs and $\operatorname{polylog}(k)$ is some polynomial in $\operatorname{log}(k)$. Our result generalizes Babai’s quasipolynomial-time graph isomorphism test.

Although a promising paper, this is a fair bit above what I can easily understand and would require a lot of time to properly comprehend.
