We study the reverse shortest path problem on disk graphs in the plane. In this problem we consider the proximity graph of a set of $n$ disks in the plane of arbitrary radii: In this graph two disks are connected if the distance between…
Let $V$ be a set of $n$ points in the plane. The unit-disk graph $G = (V, E)$ has vertex set $V$ and an edge $e_{uv} \in E$ between vertices $u, v \in V$ if the Euclidean distance between $u$ and $v$ is at most 1. The weight of each edge…
In the semi-streaming model, an algorithm must process any $n$-vertex graph by making one or few passes over a stream of its edges, use $O(n \cdot \text{polylog }n)$ words of space, and at the end of the last pass, output a solution to the…
Given a graph, the shortest-path problem requires finding a sequence of edges with minimum cumulative length that connects a source vertex to a target vertex. We consider a variant of this classical problem in which the position of each…

Computing shortest paths is one of the most fundamental algorithmic graph problems. It is known since decades that this problem can be solved in near-linear time if all weights are nonnegative. A recent break-through by [Bernstein,…

We consider the problem of computing all-pairs shortest paths in a directed graph with real weights assigned to vertices. For an $n\times n$ 0-1 matrix $C,$ let $K_{C}$ be the complete weighted graph on the rows of $C$ where the weight of…

The shortest path problem in graphs is fundamental to AI. Nearly all variants of the problem and relevant algorithms that solve them ignore edge-weight computation time and its common relation to weight uncertainty. This implies that taking…
In the dynamic Single-Source Shortest Paths (SSSP) problem, we are given a graph $G=(V,E)$ subject to edge insertions and deletions and a source vertex $s\in V$, and the goal is to maintain the distance $d(s,t)$ for all $t\in V$.…

In several important routing contexts it is required to identify a set of routes, each of which optimizes a different criterion. For instance, in the context of vehicle routing, one route would minimize the total distance traveled, while…
