While in many graph mining applications it is crucial to handle a stream of updates efficiently in terms of {\em both} time and space, not much was known about achieving such type of algorithm. In this paper we study this issue for a…
We present an optimal oracle for answering connectivity queries in undirected graphs in the presence of at most three vertex failures. Specifically, we show that we can process a graph $G$ in $O(n+m)$ time, in order to build a data…
In this paper, we propose a depth-first search (DFS) algorithm for searching maximum matchings in general graphs. Unlike blossom shrinking algorithms, which store all possible alternative alternating paths in the super-vertices shrunk from…
It is well-known since the seventies of last century that Depth First Search (DFS) can be used to compute strongly connected components [RE. Tarjan. SIAM Journal on Computing, 1972] and Breadth First Search (BFS) can be used to compute…
Given an undirected, anonymous, port-labeled graph of $n$ memory-less nodes, $m$ edges, and degree $\Delta$, we consider the problem of dispersing $k\leq n$ robots (or tokens) positioned initially arbitrarily on one or more nodes of the…
We present algorithms for distributed verification and silent-stabilization of a DFS(Depth First Search) spanning tree of a connected network. Computing and maintaining such a DFS tree is an important task, e.g., for constructing efficient…
We describe a simple variant of Hierholzer's algorithm that finds an Eulerian cycle in a (multi)graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges using $\mathrm{O}(n \lg m)$ bits of working memory. This substantially improves the working space compared…

We provide the first non-trivial result on dynamic breadth-first search (BFS) in external-memory: For general sparse undirected graphs of initially $n$ nodes and O(n) edges and monotone update sequences of either $\Theta(n)$ edge insertions…
We design $f$-edge fault-tolerant diameter oracles ($f$-FDOs). We preprocess a given graph $G$ on $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, and a positive integer $f$, to construct a data structure that, when queried with a set $F$ of $|F| \leq f$ edges,…
We present an in-place depth first search (DFS) and an in-place breadth first search (BFS) that runs on a word RAM in linear time such that, if the adjacency arrays of the input graph are given in a sorted order, the input is restored after…
We present a new algorithm for maintaining a DFS tree of an arbitrary directed graph under any sequence of edge insertions. Our algorithm requires a total of $O(m\cdot n)$ time in the worst case to process a sequence of edge insertions,…
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 continue the study of distance sensitivity oracles (DSOs). Given a directed graph $G$ with $n$ vertices and edge weights in $\{1, 2, \dots, M\}$, we want to build a data structure such that given any source vertex $u$, any target vertex…
We present space-efficient algorithms for computing cut vertices in a given graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges in linear time using $O(n+\min\{m,n\log \log n\})$ bits. With the same time and using $O(n+m)$ bits, we can compute the…
We consider the problem of building Distance Sensitivity Oracles (DSOs). Given a directed graph $G=(V, E)$ with edge weights in $\{1, 2, \dots, M\}$, we need to preprocess it into a data structure, and answer the following queries: given…
Breadth-first search (BFS) is known as a basic search strategy for learning graph properties. As the scales of graph databases have increased tremendously in recent years, large-scale graphs G are often disk-resident. Obtaining the BFS…
We study the 2-Disjoint Shortest Paths (2-DSP) problem: given a directed weighted graph and two terminal pairs $(s_1,t_1)$ and $(s_2,t_2)$, decide whether there exist vertex-disjoint shortest paths between each pair. Building on recent…
