We present an extremal result for the class of graphs G which (together with some specified sets of input and output vertices, I and O) have a certain "flow" property introduced by Danos and Kashefi for the one-way measurement model of…
We consider a generalized version of the (weighted) one-center problem on graphs. Given an undirected graph $G$ of $n$ vertices and $m$ edges and a positive integer $k\leq n$, the problem aims to find a point in $G$ so that the maximum…
Given a set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane, the unit-disk graph $G(P)$ is a graph with $P$ as its vertex set such that two points of $P$ have an edge if their Euclidean distance is at most $1$. We consider the problem of computing a maximum…
In the unsplittable flow problem on a path, we are given a capacitated path $P$ and $n$ tasks, each task having a demand, a profit, and start and end vertices. The goal is to compute a maximum profit set of tasks, such that for each edge…
In this paper we study the min-cost flow problem in planar networks. We start with the min-cost flow problem and apply two transformations, one is based on geometric duality of planar graphs and the other on linear programming duality. The…
Computing the directed path-width of a directed graph is an NP-hard problem. Even for digraphs of maximum semi-degree 3 the problem remains hard. We propose a decomposition of an input digraph G=(V,A) by a number k of sequences with entries…
In earlier work, we showed that it is possible to achieve $O(\log N)$ streaming delay with high probability in a peer-to-peer network, where each peer has as little as four neighbors, while achieving any arbitrary fraction of the maximum…
We give a deterministic $m^{1+o(1)}$ time algorithm that computes exact maximum flows and minimum-cost flows on directed graphs with $m$ edges and polynomially bounded integral demands, costs, and capacities. As a consequence, we obtain the…
A $(1+\epsilon)$-approximate distance oracle of an edge-weighted graph is a data structure that returns an approximate shortest path distance between any two query vertices up to a $(1+\epsilon)$ factor. Thorup (FOCS 2001, JACM 2004) and…
We present parameterized streaming algorithms for the graph matching problem in both the dynamic and the insert-only models. For the dynamic streaming model, we present a one-pass algorithm that, with high probability, computes a…
In this paper, we consider distributed coloring for planar graphs with a small number of colors. We present an optimal (up to a constant factor) $O(\log{n})$ time algorithm for 6-coloring planar graphs. Our algorithm is based on a novel…
In undirected graphs with real non-negative weights, we give a new randomized algorithm for the single-source shortest path (SSSP) problem with running time $O(m\sqrt{\log n \cdot \log\log n})$ in the comparison-addition model. This is the…
In recent years, the problem of computing the frequencies of the induced $k$-vertex subgraphs of a graph, or \emph{$k$-graphlets}, has become central. One approach for this problem is to sample $k$-graphlets randomly. Classic algorithms for…
We present faster high-accuracy algorithms for computing $\ell_p$-norm minimizing flows. On a graph with $m$ edges, our algorithm can compute a $(1+1/\text{poly}(m))$-approximate unweighted $\ell_p$-norm minimizing flow with…
An instance of the Connected Maximum Cut problem consists of an undirected graph G = (V, E) and the goal is to find a subset of vertices S $\subseteq$ V that maximizes the number of edges in the cut \delta(S) such that the induced graph…
Given a digraph $G = (V, E)$ with a designated source $s$, sink $t$, and an $(s,t)$-max-flow of value $\lambda$, we present constructions for max-flow and min-cut sensitivity oracles, and introduce the concept of a fault-tolerant flow…
We study the problem of computing shortest paths in so-called dense distance graphs. Every planar graph $G$ on $n$ vertices can be partitioned into a set of $O(n/r)$ edge-disjoint regions (called an $r$-division) with $O(r)$ vertices each,…
This article focuses on a biobjective extension of the maximum flow network interdiction problem, where each arc in the network is associated with two capacity values. Two maximum flows from a source to a sink are to be computed…
This article is the complement to [quant-ph/0611284], which proves that flows (as introduced by [quant-ph/0506062]) can be found efficiently for patterns in the one-way measurement model which have non-empty input and output subsystems of…
We present a global optimization approach to optical flow estimation. The approach optimizes a classical optical flow objective over the full space of mappings between discrete grids. No descriptor matching is used. The highly regular…
