We investigate the single source shortest distance (SSSD) and all pairs shortest distance (APSD) problems as enumeration problems (on unweighted and integer weighted graphs), meaning that the elements $(u, v, d(u, v))$ -- where $u$ and $v$…

Optimal power flow (OPF) is a critical optimization problem for power systems to operate at points where cost or other operational objectives are optimized. Due to the non-convexity of the set of feasible OPF operating points, it is…

Many discrete minimization problems, including various versions of the shortest path problem, can be efficiently solved by dynamic programming (DP) algorithms that are "pure" in that they only perform basic operations, as min, max, +, but…
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…
We study shortest-path routing in large weighted, undirected graphs, where expanding search frontiers raise time and memory costs for exact solvers. We propose \emph{SPHERE}, a query-aware partitioning heuristic that adaptively splits the…
We present a new exact algorithm for the Steiner tree problem in edge-weighted graphs. Our algorithm improves the classical dynamic programming approach by Dreyfus and Wagner. We achieve a significantly better practical performance via…
The $k$ disjoint shortest paths problem ($k$-DSPP) on a graph with $k$ source-sink pairs $(s_i, t_i)$ asks for the existence of $k$ pairwise edge- or vertex-disjoint shortest $s_i$-$t_i$-paths. It is known to be NP-complete if $k$ is part…
This paper addresses the fuzzy shortest path problem in directed graphs, where edge costs are modeled as generalized fuzzy numbers with Gaussian membership functions. We interpret height as an indicator of information reliability. Based on…
The Steiner Traveling Salesman Problem (STSP) is a variant of the classical Traveling Salesman Problem. The STSP involves incorporating steiner nodes, which are extra nodes not originally part of the required visit set but that can be added…
In this paper, we study the problem of fast constructions of source-wise round-trip spanners in weighted directed graphs. For a source vertex set $S\subseteq V$ in a graph $G(V,E)$, an $S$-sourcewise round-trip spanner of $G$ of stretch $k$…

Let $S$ be a set of $n$ points in a polygon $P$ with $m$ vertices. The geodesic unit-disk graph $G(S)$ induced by $S$ has vertex set $S$ and contains an edge between two vertices whenever their geodesic distance in $P$ is at most one. In…
