Given a directed graph $G$, a transitive reduction $G^t$ of $G$ (first studied by Aho, Garey, Ullman [SICOMP `72]) is a minimal subgraph of $G$ that preserves the reachability relation between every two vertices in $G$. In this paper, we…

For an input graph $G$, an additive spanner is a sparse subgraph $H$ whose shortest paths match those of $G$ up to small additive error. We prove two new lower bounds in the area of additive spanners: 1) We construct $n$-node graphs $G$ for…
Given a weighted undirected graph $G=(V,E,w)$, a hopset $H$ of hopbound $\beta$ and stretch $(1+\epsilon)$ is a set of edges such that for any pair of nodes $u, v \in V$, there is a path in $G \cup H$ of at most $\beta$ hops, whose length…
