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…
One of the main hypotheses in fine-grained complexity is that All-Pairs Shortest Paths (APSP) for $n$-node graphs requires $n^{3-o(1)}$ time. Another famous hypothesis is that the $3$SUM problem for $n$ integers requires $n^{2-o(1)}$ time.…

For many hard computational problems, simple algorithms that run in time $2^n \cdot n^{O(1)}$ arise, say, from enumerating all subsets of a size-$n$ set. Finding (exponentially) faster algorithms is a natural goal that has driven much of…
