An \emph{$\alpha$-approximate vertex fault-tolerant distance sensitivity oracle} (\emph{$\alpha$-VSDO}) for a weighted input graph $G=(V, E, w)$ and a source vertex $s \in V$ is the data structure answering an $\alpha$-approximate distance…
(I) We revisit the algorithmic problem of finding all triangles in a graph $G=(V,E)$ with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges. According to a result of Chiba and Nishizeki (1985), this task can be achieved by a combinatorial algorithm running in…
Given an undirected, unweighted graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, the maximum cut problem is to find a partition of the $n$ vertices into disjoint subsets $V_1$ and $V_2$ such that the number of edges between them is as large as…
Given an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ with positive edge lengths and two vertices $s$ and $t$, the next-to-shortest path problem is to find an $st$-path which length is minimum amongst all $st$-paths strictly longer than the shortest path…
We consider the problem of augmenting an $n$-vertex tree with one shortcut in order to minimize the diameter of the resulting graph. The tree is embedded in an unknown space and we have access to an oracle that, when queried on a pair of…
We present the first succinct distance oracles for (unweighted) interval graphs and related classes of graphs, using a novel succinct data structure for ordinal trees that supports the mapping between preorder (i.e., depth-first) ranks and…
We give an algorithm for finding the arboricity of a weighted, undirected graph, defined as the minimum number of spanning forests that cover all edges of the graph, in $\sqrt{n} m^{1+o(1)}$ time. This improves on the previous best bound of…
Given a directed weighted graph $G=(V,E)$ undergoing vertex insertions \emph{and} deletions, the All-Pairs Shortest Paths (APSP) problem asks to maintain a data structure that processes updates efficiently and returns after each update the…
We spot a hole in the area of succinct data structures for graph classes from a universe of size at most $n^n$. Very often, the input graph is labeled by the user in an arbitrary and easy-to-use way, and the data structure for the graph…
We consider the problem of finding all allowed edges in a bipartite graph $G=(V,E)$, i.e., all edges that are included in some maximum matching. We show that given any maximum matching in the graph, it is possible to perform this…
Fine-grained reductions have established equivalences between many core problems with $\tilde{O}(n^3)$-time algorithms on $n$-node weighted graphs, such as Shortest Cycle, All-Pairs Shortest Paths (APSP), Radius, Replacement Paths, Second…
A $k$-vertex connectivity oracle for undirected $G$ is a data structure that, given $u,v\in V(G)$, reports $\min\{k,\kappa(u,v)\}$, where $\kappa(u,v)$ is the pairwise vertex connectivity between $u,v$. There are three main measures of…
Let $G$ be an $n$-node and $m$-edge positively real-weighted undirected graph. For any given integer $f \ge 1$, we study the problem of designing a sparse \emph{f-edge-fault-tolerant} ($f$-EFT) $\sigma${\em -approximate single-source…
Let $G$ be a (possibly disconnected) planar subdivision and let $D$ be a probability measure over $\R^2$. The current paper shows how to preprocess $(G,D)$ into an O(n) size data structure that can answer planar point location queries over…
We present a succinct data structure for permutation graphs, and their superclass of circular permutation graphs, i.e., data structures using optimal space up to lower order terms. Unlike concurrent work on circle graphs (Acan et al. 2022),…
Given a dynamic digraph $G = (V,E)$ undergoing edge deletions and given $s\in V$ and $\epsilon>0$, we consider the problem of maintaining $(1+\epsilon)$-approximate shortest path distances from $s$ to all vertices in $G$ over the sequence…
In this paper we show that set-intersection is harder than distance oracle on sparse graphs. Given a collection of total size n which consists of m sets drawn from universe U, the set-intersection problem is to build a data structure which…
Given a graph G=(V,E) with a label set L = {l_1, l_2, ..., l_q}, in which each edge has a label from L, a source s in V, and a sink t in V, the Min Label s-t Cut problem asks to pick a set L' subseteq L of labels with minimized cardinality,…
In this paper, we consider the question of computing sparse subgraphs for any input directed graph $G=(V,E)$ on $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, that preserves reachability and/or strong connectivity structures. We show $O(n+\min\{|{\cal…
We are presented with a graph, $G$, on $n$ vertices with $m$ edges whose edge set is unknown. Our goal is to learn the edges of $G$ with as few queries to an oracle as possible. When we submit a set $S$ of vertices to the oracle, it tells…
