We study the 2-edge-connected spanning subgraph (2-ECSS) problem: Given a graph $G$, compute a connected subgraph $H$ of $G$ with the minimum number of edges such that $H$ is spanning, i.e., $V(H) = V(G)$, and $H$ is 2-edge-connected, i.e.,…
An instance of the Connected Maximum Cut problem consists of an undirected graph G = (V, E) and the goal is to find a subset of vertices S $\subseteq$ V that maximizes the number of edges in the cut \delta(S) such that the induced graph…
We provide new tradeoffs between approximation and running time for the decremental all-pairs shortest paths (APSP) problem. For undirected graphs with $m$ edges and $n$ nodes undergoing edge deletions, we provide four new approximate…
We consider the fundamental problems of determining the rooted and global edge and vertex connectivities (and computing the corresponding cuts) in directed graphs. For rooted (and hence also global) edge connectivity with small integer…
A communication network can be modeled as a directed connected graph with edge weights that characterize performance metrics such as loss and delay. Network tomography aims to infer these edge weights from their pathwise versions measured…
We study the problem of power-efficient routing for multihop wireless ad hoc sensor networks. The guiding insight of our work is that unlike an ad hoc wireless network, a wireless ad hoc sensor network does not require full connectivity…
We consider the incomplete multi-graph matching problem, which is a generalization of the NP-hard quadratic assignment problem for matching multiple finite sets. Multi-graph matching plays a central role in computer vision, e.g., for…
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…
We study the problem of extracting a selective connector for a given set of query vertices $Q \subseteq V$ in a graph $G = (V,E)$. A selective connector is a subgraph of $G$ which exhibits some cohesiveness property, and contains the query…
We present a simple iterative strategy for measuring the connection strength between a pair of vertices in a graph. The method is attractive in that it has a linear complexity and can be easily parallelized. Based on an analysis of the…
In graph signal processing, data samples are associated to vertices on a graph, while edge weights represent similarities between those samples. We propose a convex optimization problem to learn sparse well connected graphs from data. We…
The Min Energy broadcast problem consists in assigning transmission ranges to the nodes of an ad-hoc network in order to guarantee a directed spanning tree from a given source node and, at the same time, to minimize the energy consumption…
Here the All-pairs shortest path problem on weighted undirected sparse graphs is being considered. For the problem considered, we propose ``disassembly and assembly of a graph'' algorithm which uses a solution of the problem on a…
The mim-width of a graph is a powerful structural parameter that, when bounded by a constant, allows several hard problems to be polynomial-time solvable - with a recent meta-theorem encompassing a large class of problems [SODA2023]. Since…
Connectivity of temporal graphs has been widely studied both as graph theory and as gossip theory. In particular, it is well known that in order to connect every vertex to every other, a temporal graph needs to have at least $2n-4$ edges…
The future of main memory appears to lie in the direction of new technologies that provide strong capacity-to-performance ratios, but have write operations that are much more expensive than reads in terms of latency, bandwidth, and energy.…
The APSP Hypothesis states that the All-Pairs Shortest Paths (APSP) problem requires time $n^{3-o(1)}$ on graphs with polynomially bounded integer edge weights. Two increasingly stronger assumptions are the Strong APSP Hypothesis and the…
In the network activation problem, each edge in a graph is associated with an activation function, that decides whether the edge is activated from node-weights assigned to its end-nodes. The feasible solutions of the problem are the…
We study the stable matching problem in non-bipartite graphs with incomplete but strict preference lists, where the edges have weights and the goal is to compute a stable matching of minimum or maximum weight. This problem is known to be…
We obtain a polynomial-time 17/12-approximation algorithm for the minimum-cost 2-vertex-connected spanning subgraph problem, restricted to graphs of minimum degree at least 3. Our algorithm uses the framework of ear-decompositions for…
