This paper presents a new deterministic algorithm for single-source shortest paths (SSSP) on real non-negative edge-weighted directed graphs, with running time $O(m\sqrt{\log n}+\sqrt{mn\log n\log \log n})$, which is $O(m\sqrt{\log n\log…

We present a randomized algorithm that computes single-source shortest paths (SSSP) in $O(m\log^8(n)\log W)$ time when edge weights are integral and can be negative. This essentially resolves the classic negative-weight SSSP problem. The…

We present formalisations of the correctness of executable algorithms to solve minimum-cost flow problems in Isabelle/HOL. Two of the algorithms are based on the technique of scaling, most notably Orlin's algorithm, which has the fastest…

All traditional methods of computing shortest paths depend upon edge-relaxation where the cost of reaching a vertex from a source vertex is possibly decreased if that edge is used. We introduce a method which maintains lower bounds as well…

We investigate the complexity and approximability of the budget-constrained minimum cost flow problem, which is an extension of the traditional minimum cost flow problem by a second kind of costs associated with each edge, whose total value…

Given an arbitrary, non-negatively weighted, directed graph $G=(V,E)$ we present an algorithm that computes all pairs shortest paths in time $\mathcal{O}(m^* n + m \lg n + nT_\psi(m^*, n))$, where $m^*$ is the number of different edges…

We consider the problem of finding a minimum cut of a weighted graph presented as a single-pass stream. While graph sparsification in streams has been intensively studied, the specific application of finding minimum cuts in streams is less…

The Shortest Paths Problem (SPP) is no longer unresolved. Just for a large scalar of instance on this problem, even we cannot know if an algorithm achieves the computing. Those cutting-edge methods are still in the low performance. If we go…
