Consider the following distance query for an $n$-node graph $G$ undergoing edge insertions and deletions: given two sets of nodes $I$ and $J$, return the distances between every pair of nodes in $I\times J$. This query is rather general and…
This paper presents parallel, distributed and quantum algorithms for single-source shortest paths when edges can have negative weights (negative-weight SSSP). We show a framework that reduces negative-weight SSSP in all these setting to…
Given an arbitrary, non-negatively weighted, directed graph $G=(V,E)$ we present an algorithm that computes all pairs shortest paths in time $\mathcal{O}(m^* n + m \lg n + nT_\psi(m^*, n))$, where $m^*$ is the number of different edges…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be the surface of a convex polyhedron with $n$ vertices. We consider the two-point shortest path query problem for $\mathcal{P}$: Constructing a data structure so that given any two query points $s$ and $t$ on…
For a positive parameter $\beta$, the $\beta$-bounded distance between a pair of vertices $u,v$ in a weighted undirected graph $G = (V,E,\omega)$ is the length of the shortest $u-v$ path in $G$ with at most $\beta$ edges, aka {\em hops}.…
Computing approximate shortest paths in the dynamic streaming setting is a fundamental challenge that has been intensively studied during the last decade. Currently existing solutions for this problem either build a sparse multiplicative…
In this paper we show a deterministic parallel all-pairs shortest paths algorithm for real-weighted directed graphs. The algorithm has $\tilde{O}(nm+(n/d)^3)$ work and $\tilde{O}(d)$ depth for any depth parameter $d\in [1,n]$. To the best…
Dijkstra's algorithm for the Single-Source Shortest Path (SSSP) problem is notoriously hard to parallelize in $o(n)$ depth, $n$ being the number of vertices in the input graph, without increasing the required parallel work unreasonably.…
The textbook algorithm for real-weighted single-source shortest paths takes $O(mn)$ time on a graph with $m$ edges and $n$ vertices. A recent breakthrough algorithm by [Fin24] takes $\tilde{O}(mn^{8/9})$ randomized time. The running time…
For $n$-vertex $m$-edge graphs with integer polynomially-bounded costs and capacities, we provide a randomized parallel algorithm for the minimum cost flow problem with $\tilde O(m+n^ {1.5})$ work and $\tilde O(\sqrt{n})$ depth. On…
We present a randomized algorithm that computes single-source shortest paths (SSSP) in $O(m\log^8(n)\log W)$ time when edge weights are integral and can be negative. This essentially resolves the classic negative-weight SSSP problem. The…
Constructing a sparse spanning subgraph is a fundamental primitive in graph theory. In this paper, we study this problem in the Centralized Local model, where the goal is to decide whether an edge is part of the spanning subgraph by…
In this article, we present an approximation algorithm for solving the Weighted Region Problem amidst a set of $ n $ non-overlapping weighted disks in the plane. For a given parameter $ \varepsilon \in (0,1]$, the length of the approximate…
Over the past decade, there has been increasing interest in distributed/parallel algorithms for processing large-scale graphs. By now, we have quite fast algorithms -- usually sublogarithmic-time and often $poly(\log\log n)$-time, or even…
Given a directed, weighted graph $G=(V,E)$ undergoing edge insertions, the incremental single-source shortest paths (SSSP) problem asks for the maintenance of approximate distances from a dedicated source $s$ while optimizing the total time…
This paper presents a randomized algorithm for the problem of single-source shortest paths on directed graphs with real (both positive and negative) edge weights. Given an input graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, the algorithm completes…
We present an algorithm that takes as input an $n$-vertex planar graph $G$ and a $k$-vertex pattern graph $P$, and computes the number of (induced) copies of $P$ in $G$ in $2^{O(k/\log k)}n^{O(1)}$ time. If $P$ is a matching, independent…
We study computing {\em all-pairs shortest paths} (APSP) on distributed networks (the CONGEST model). The goal is for every node in the (weighted) network to know the distance from every other node using communication. The problem admits…
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…
