We consider the standard message passing model; we assume the system is fully synchronous: all processes start at the same time and time proceeds in synchronised rounds. In each round each vertex can transmit a different message of size…
Given a set of $n$ point robots inside a simple polygon $P$, the task is to move the robots from their starting positions to their target positions along their shortest paths, while the mutual visibility of these robots is preserved.…
Given a road network modelled as a planar straight-line graph $G=(V,E)$ with $|V|=n$, let $(u,v)\in V\times V$, the shortest path (distance) between $u,v$ is denoted as $\delta_G(u,v)$. Let $\delta(G)=\max_{(u,v)}\delta_G(u,v)$, for…
Planning for Autonomous Unmanned Ground Vehicles (AUGV) is still a challenge, especially in difficult, off-road, critical situations. Automatic planning can be used to reach mission objectives, to perform navigation or maneuvers. Most of…
A set $S$ of isometric paths of a graph $G$ is ``$v$-rooted'', where $v$ is a vertex of $G$, if $v$ is one of the endpoints of all the isometric paths in $S$. The isometric path complexity of a graph $G$, denoted by $ipco{G}$, is the…
We study the computational complexity of routing multiple objects through a network in such a way that only few collisions occur: Given a graph $G$ with two distinct terminal vertices and two positive integers $p$ and $k$, the question is…
The Maximum Induced Matching problem asks to find the maximum $k$ such that, given a graph $G=(V,E)$, can we find a subset of vertices $S$ of size $k$ for which every vertices $v$ in the induced graph $G[S]$ has exactly degree $1$. In this…
Subdividing an edge $uv$ in a graph replaces it by a path $u w v$ with one new vertex. For a graph $H$, the \textsc{$H$-free Subdivision} problem asks whether, given a graph $G$ and an integer $k$, one can destroy all induced copies of $H$…
In this paper, we provide polynomial-time algorithms for different extensions of the matching counting problem, namely maximal matchings, path matchings (linear forest) and paths, on graph classes of bounded clique-width. For maximal…
Although there are very algorithms for embedding graphs on unbounded grids, only few results on embedding or drawing graphs on restricted grids has been published. In this work, we consider the problem of embedding paths and cycles on grid…
A directed graph G = (V,E) is singly connected if for any two vertices v, u of V, the directed graph G contains at most one simple path from v to u. In this paper, we study different algorithms to find a feasible but necessarily optimal…
In this paper we present a new algorithm for solving linear programs that requires only $\tilde{O}(\sqrt{rank(A)}L)$ iterations to solve a linear program with $m$ constraints, $n$ variables, and constraint matrix $A$, and bit complexity…
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…
Given a graph, does there exist an orientation of the edges such that the resulting directed graph is strongly connected? Robbins' theorem [Robbins, Am. Math. Monthly, 1939] states that such an orientation exists if and only if the graph is…
In this paper we initiate the study of the temporal graph realization problem with respect to the fastest path durations among its vertices, while we focus on periodic temporal graphs. Given an $n \times n$ matrix $D$ and a $\Delta \in…
The $k$-Detour problem is a basic path-finding problem: given a graph $G$ on $n$ vertices, with specified nodes $s$ and $t$, and a positive integer $k$, the goal is to determine if $G$ has an $st$-path of length exactly $\text{dist}(s, t) +…
An influential result by Dor, Halperin, and Zwick (FOCS 1996, SICOMP 2000) implies an algorithm that can compute approximate shortest paths for all vertex pairs in $\tilde{O}(n^{2+O\left(\frac{1}{k}\right )})$ time, ensuring that the output…
This paper details a new algorithm to solve the shortest path problem in valued graphs. Its complexity is $O(D \log v)$ where $D$ is the graph diameter and $v$ its number of vertices. This complexity has to be compared to the one of the…
Given a multiset $S$ of $n$ positive integers and a target integer $t$, the subset sum problem is to decide if there is a subset of $S$ that sums up to $t$. We present a new divide-and-conquer algorithm that computes all the realizable…
We discuss the complexity of path enumeration and counting in weighted temporal graphs. In a weighted temporal graph, each edge has an availability time, a traversal time and some real cost. We introduce two bicriteria temporal min-cost…
