Given an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ on $n$ vertices, $m$ edges, and an integer $t\ge 1$, a subgraph $(V,E_S)$, $E_S\subseteq E$ is called a $t$-spanner if for any pair of vertices $u,v \in V$, the distance between them in the subgraph is at…

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…

In the dynamic Single-Source Shortest Paths (SSSP) problem, we are given a graph $G=(V,E)$ subject to edge insertions and deletions and a source vertex $s\in V$, and the goal is to maintain the distance $d(s,t)$ for all $t\in V$.…

Depth first search is a fundamental graph problem having a wide range of applications. For a graph $G=(V,E)$ having $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, the DFS tree can be computed in $O(m+n)$ using $O(m)$ space where $m=O(n^2)$. In the streaming…
