In the restricted shortest paths problem, we are given a graph $G$ whose edges are assigned two non-negative weights: lengths and delays, a source $s$, and a delay threshold $D$. The goal is to find, for each target $t$, the length of the…

Given a set of pairwise disjoint polygonal obstacles in the plane, finding an obstacle-avoiding Euclidean shortest path between two points is a classical problem in computational geometry and has been studied extensively. Previously,…

We present two new and efficient algorithms for computing all-pairs shortest paths. The algorithms operate on directed graphs with real (possibly negative) weights. They make use of directed path consistency along a vertex ordering d. Both…

We prove that the single-source shortest-path problem on disk graphs can be solved in $O(n\log n)$ time, and that it can be solved on intersection graphs of fat triangles in $O(n\log^2 n)$ time.

Let $G$ be a directed graph with $n$ vertices, $m$ edges, and non-negative edge costs. Given $G$, a fixed source vertex $s$, and a positive integer $p$, we consider the problem of computing, for each vertex $t\neq s$, $p$ edge-disjoint…

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…

The replacement paths problem for directed graphs is to find for given nodes s and t and every edge e on the shortest path between them, the shortest path between s and t which avoids e. For unweighted directed graphs on n vertices, the…

We give a bi-criteria approximation algorithm for the Minimum Nonuniform Partitioning problem, recently introduced by Krauthgamer, Naor, Schwartz and Talwar (2014). In this problem, we are given a graph $G=(V,E)$ on $n$ vertices and $k$…

We present an algorithm for the Single Source Shortest Paths (SSSP) problem in \emph{$H$-minor free} graphs. For every fixed $H$, if $G$ is a graph with $n$ vertices having integer edge lengths and $s$ is a designated source vertex of $G$,…

A \emph{beer graph} is an undirected graph $G$, in which each edge has a positive weight and some vertices have a beer store. A \emph{beer path} between two vertices $u$ and $v$ in $G$ is any path in $G$ between $u$ and $v$ that visits at…

For an undirected $n$-vertex graph $G$ with non-negative edge-weights, we consider the following type of query: given two vertices $s$ and $t$ in $G$, what is the weight of a minimum $st$-cut in $G$? We solve this problem in preprocessing…

CAT(0) metric spaces constitute a far-reaching common generalization of Euclidean and hyperbolic spaces and simple polygons: any two points x and y of a CAT(0) metric space are connected by a unique shortest path {\gamma}(x,y). In this…
