An important tool in the design of fault-tolerant graph data structures are $(L,f)$-replacement path coverings (RPCs). An RPC is a family $\mathcal{G}$ of subgraphs of a given graph $G$ such that, for every set $F$ of at most $f$ edges,…

In this work we derandomize two central results in graph algorithms, replacement paths and distance sensitivity oracles (DSOs) matching in both cases the running time of the randomized algorithms. For the replacement paths problem, let G =…

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…

We design sensitivity oracles for error-prone networks. For a network problem $\Pi$, the data structure preprocesses a network $G=(V,E)$ and sensitivity parameter $f$ such that, for any set $F\subseteq V\cup E$ of up to $f$ link or node…

We consider a variant of the path cover problem, namely, the $k$-fixed-endpoint path cover problem, or kPC for short, on interval graphs. Given a graph $G$ and a subset $\mathcal{T}$ of $k$ vertices of $V(G)$, a $k$-fixed-endpoint path…
