Given a graph with a source vertex $s$, the Single Source Replacement Paths (SSRP) problem is to compute, for every vertex $t$ and edge $e$, the length $d(s,t,e)$ of a shortest path from $s$ to $t$ that avoids $e$. A Single-Source Distance…

Given an undirected unweighted graph $G$ and a source set $S$ of $|S| = \sigma $ sources, we want to build a data structure which can process the following query {\sc Q}$(s,t,e):$ find the shortest distance from $s$ to $t$ avoiding an edge…

In this work we derandomize two central results in graph algorithms, replacement paths and distance sensitivity oracles (DSOs) matching in both cases the running time of the randomized algorithms. For the replacement paths problem, let G =…

Our input is an undirected weighted graph $G = (V,E)$ on $n$ vertices along with a source set $S\subseteq V$. The problem is to preprocess $G$ and build a compact data structure such that upon query $Qu(s,v,f)$ where $(s,v) \in S\times V$…

In the Single Source Replacement Paths (SSRP) problem we are given a graph $G = (V, E)$, and a shortest paths tree $\widehat{K}$ rooted at a node $s$, and the goal is to output for every node $t \in V$ and for every edge $e$ in…
