In this paper we study the problem of answering connectivity queries about a \emph{graph timeline}. A graph timeline is a sequence of undirected graphs $G_1,\ldots,G_t$ on a common set of vertices of size $n$ such that each graph is…

Visibility problems have been investigated for a long time under different assumptions as they pose challenging combinatorial problems and are connected to robot navigation problems. The mutual-visibility problem in a graph $G$ of $n$…

The exact path length problem is to determine if there is a path of a given fixed cost between two vertices. This paper focuses on the exact path problem for costs $-1,0$ or $+1$ between all pairs of vertices in an edge-weighted digraph.…

We consider the following two algorithmic problems: given a graph $G$ and a subgraph $H\subseteq G$, decide whether $H$ is an isometric or a geodesically convex subgraph of $G$. It is relatively easy to see that the problems can be solved…

We present an algorithm for finding a perfect matching in a $3$-edge-connected cubic graph that intersects every $3$-edge cut in exactly one edge. Specifically, we propose an algorithm with a time complexity of $O(n \log^4 n)$, which…

We consider the problem of assigning appearing times to the edges of a digraph in order to maximize the (average) temporal reachability between pairs of nodes. Motivated by the application to public transit networks, where edges cannot be…

It has been shown by Alon et al. that the so-called 'all-pairs shortest-path' problem can be solved in O((MV)^2.688 * log^3(V)) for graphs with V vertices, with integer distances bounded by M. We solve the more general problem for graphs in…

We consider the problem of finding edge-disjoint paths between given pairs of vertices in a sufficiently strong $d$-regular expander graph $G$ with $n$ vertices. In particular, we describe a deterministic, polynomial time algorithm which…

We extend the well known bottleneck paths problem in two directions for directed unweighted (unit edge cost) graphs with positive real edge capacities. Firstly we narrow the problem domain and compute the bottleneck of the entire network in…

Given an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ with positive edge lengths and two vertices $s$ and $t$, the next-to-shortest path problem is to find an $st$-path which length is minimum amongst all $st$-paths strictly longer than the shortest path…

We consider the standard message passing model; we assume the system is fully synchronous: all processes start at the same time and time proceeds in synchronised rounds. In each round each vertex can transmit a different message of size…

We investigate the computational complexity of finding temporally disjoint paths or walks in temporal graphs. There, the edge set changes over discrete time steps and a temporal path (resp. walk) uses edges that appear at monotonically…

We complement our study of 2-connectivity in directed graphs, by considering the computation of the following 2-vertex-connectivity relations: We say that two vertices v and w are 2-vertex-connected if there are two internally…

We prove almost tight bounds on the length of paths in $2$-edge-connected cubic graphs. Concretely, we show that (i) every $2$-edge-connected cubic graph of size $n$ has a path of length $\Omega\left(\frac{\log^2{n}}{\log{\log{n}}}\right)$,…

The problem of finding multiple simple shortest paths in a weighted directed graph $G=(V,E)$ has many applications, and is considerably more difficult than the corresponding problem when cycles are allowed in the paths. Even for a single…

In a strongly connected graph $G = (V,E)$, a cut arc (also called strong bridge) is an arc $e \in E$ whose removal makes the graph no longer strongly connected. Equivalently, there exist $u,v \in V$, such that all $u$-$v$ walks contain $e$.…
