Consider the single-source shortest paths problem on a directed graph with real-valued edge weights. We solve this problem in $O(n^{2.5}\log^{4.5}n)$ time, improving on prior work of Fineman (STOC 2024) and Huang-Jin-Quanrud (SODA 2025,…
In the Asymmetric Traveling Salesperson Problem (ATSP) the goal is to find a closed walk of minimum cost in a directed graph visiting every vertex. We consider the approximability of ATSP on topologically restricted graphs. It has been…
Matrix $M$ is {\em $k$-concise} if the finite entries of each column of $M$ consist of $k$ or less intervals of identical numbers. We give an $O(n+m)$-time algorithm to compute the row minima of any $O(1)$-concise $n\times m$ matrix. Our…
Exact computation of shortest paths in weighted graphs has been traditionally studied in one of two settings. First, one can assume that the edge weights are real numbers and all the performed operations on reals (typically comparisons and…
In the decremental single-source shortest paths problem, the goal is to maintain distances from a fixed source $s$ to every vertex $v$ in an $m$-edge graph undergoing edge deletions. In this paper, we conclude a long line of research on…
We give an algorithm to find a minimum cut in an edge-weighted directed graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges in $\tilde O(n\cdot \max(m^{2/3}, n))$ time. This improves on the 30 year old bound of $\tilde O(nm)$ obtained by Hao and Orlin…
In this paper, we show that given a weighted, directed planar graph $G$, and any $\epsilon >0$, there exists a polynomial time and $O(n^{\frac{1}{2}+\epsilon})$ space algorithm that computes the shortest path between two fixed vertices in…
The All-Pairs Min-Cut problem (aka All-Pairs Max-Flow) asks to compute a minimum $s$-$t$ cut (or just its value) for all pairs of vertices $s,t$. We study this problem in directed graphs with unit edge/vertex capacities (corresponding to…
Orienting the edges of an undirected graph such that the resulting digraph satisfies some given constraints is a classical problem in graph theory, with multiple algorithmic applications. In particular, an $st$-orientation orients each edge…
We introduce a new bilevel version of the classic shortest path problem and completely characterize its computational complexity with respect to several problem variants. In our problem, the leader and the follower each control a subset of…
We revisit the problem of privately releasing the all-pairs shortest path distances of a weighted undirected graph up to low additive error, which was first studied by Sealfon [Sea16]. In this paper, we improve significantly on Sealfon's…
We address the single source shortest path planning problem (SSSP) in the case of floating point edge weights. We show how any integer based Dijkstra solution that relies on a monotone integer priority queue to create a full ordering over…
Let $G=(V,E)$ be an $n$-nodes non-negatively real-weighted undirected graph. In this paper we show how to enrich a {\em single-source shortest-path tree} (SPT) of $G$ with a \emph{sparse} set of \emph{auxiliary} edges selected from $E$, in…
The betweenness centrality (BC) of a node in a network (or graph) is a measure of its importance in the network. BC is widely used in a large number of environments such as social networks, transport networks, security/mobile networks and…
Graphs have been widely used in real-world applications, in which investigating relations between vertices is an important task. In this paper, we study the problem of generating the k-hop-constrained s-t simple path graph, i.e., the…
We present an implementation and experimental analysis of the deterministic algorithm proposed by Duan et al. (2025) for the Single-Source Shortest Path (SSSP) problem, which achieves the best-known asymptotic upper bound of $O(m \log^{2/3}…
In this paper, we study the single-source shortest-path (SSSP) problem with positive edge weights, which is a notoriously hard problem in the parallel context. In practice, the $\Delta$-stepping algorithm proposed by Meyer and Sanders has…
In the Survivable Network Design Problem (SNDP), the input is an edge-weighted (di)graph $G$ and an integer $r_{uv}$ for every pair of vertices $u,v\in V(G)$. The objective is to construct a subgraph $H$ of minimum weight which contains…
We consider the problem of computing shortest paths in weighted unit-disk graphs in constant dimension $d$. Although the single-source and all-pairs variants of this problem are well-studied in the plane case, no non-trivial exact distance…
Color-constrained subgraph problems are those where we are given an edge-colored (directed or undirected) graph and the task is to find a specific type of subgraph, like a spanning tree, an arborescence, a single-source shortest path tree,…
