We study the fully dynamic All-Pairs Shortest Paths (APSP) problem in undirected edge-weighted graphs. Given an $n$-vertex graph $G$ with non-negative edge lengths, that undergoes an online sequence of edge insertions and deletions, the…
We discuss several classical results about long paths and Hamilton cycles in random graphs and present accessible versions of their proofs, relying on the Depth First Search (DFS) algorithm and the notion of boosters.
Long Paths and Cycles in eulerian digraphs have gotten a lot of attention recently. In this short note, we show how to use methods from Knierim, Larcher, Martinsson, Noever (2021) to find paths of length $d/(\log d+1)$ in Eulerian digraphs…
In this thesis, we present new techniques to deal with fundamental algorithmic graph problems where graphs are directed and partially dynamic, i.e. undergo either a sequence of edge insertions or deletions: - Single-Source Reachability…
Many real-world networks can be modeled as graphs. Finding dense subgraphs is a key problem in graph mining with applications in diverse domains. In this paper, we consider two variants of the densest subgraph problem where multiple graph…
Given a graph of which the n vertices form a regular two-dimensional grid, and in which each (possibly weighted and/or directed) edge connects a vertex to one of its eight neighbours, the following can be done in O(scan(n)) I/Os, provided M…
To tackle the exponentiality associated with NP-hard problems, two paradigms have been proposed. First, Branch & Bound, like Dynamic Programming, achieve efficient exact inference but requires extensive information and analysis about the…
One of the basic tasks for Bayesian networks (BNs) is that of learning a network structure from data. The BN-learning problem is NP-hard, so the standard solution is heuristic search. Many approaches have been proposed for this task, but…

Hub Labeling (HL) is a data structure for distance oracles. Hierarchical HL (HHL) is a special type of HL, that received a lot of attention from a practical point of view. However, theoretical questions such as NP-hardness and approximation…
In the Survivable Network Design Problem (SNDP), the input is an edge-weighted (di)graph $G$ and an integer $r_{uv}$ for every pair of vertices $u,v\in V(G)$. The objective is to construct a subgraph $H$ of minimum weight which contains…
Although Breadth-First Search (BFS) has several advantages over Depth-First Search (DFS) its prohibitive space requirements have meant that algorithm designers often pass it over in favor of DFS. To address this shortcoming, we introduce a…
We propose a graph-based sweep algorithm for solving the steady state, mono-energetic discrete ordinates on meshes of high-order curved mesh elements. Our spatial discretization consists of arbitrarily high-order discontinuous Galerkin…
We revisit a classical graph-theoretic problem, the \textit{single-source shortest-path} (SSSP) problem, in weighted unit-disk graphs. We first propose an exact (and deterministic) algorithm which solves the problem in $O(n \log^2 n)$ time…
Large graphs are difficult to represent, visualize, and understand. In this paper, we introduce "gate graph" - a new approach to perform graph simplification. A gate graph provides a simplified topological view of the original graph.…

Subgraph isomorphism is a well-known NP-hard problem which is widely used in many applications, such as social network analysis and knowledge graph query. Its performance is often limited by the inherent hardness. Several insightful works…

A decentralized search algorithm is a method of routing on a random graph that uses only limited, local, information about the realization of the graph. In some random graph models it is possible to define such algorithms which produce…
