Depth first search (DFS) tree is a fundamental data structure for solving various problems in graphs. It is well known that it takes $O(m+n)$ time to build a DFS tree for a given undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ on $n$ vertices and $m$ edges. We…

In this article, we study the efficient dynamical computation of all-pairs SimRanks on time-varying graphs. Li {\em et al}.'s approach requires $O(r^4 n^2)$ time and $O(r^2 n^2)$ memory in a graph with $n$ nodes, where $r$ is the target…
