In this paper, we employ the decomposition of a directed network as an undirected graph plus its associated node metadata to characterise the cyclic structure found in directed networks by finding a Minimal Cycle Basis of the undirected…
Finding a shortest path in a graph is one of the most classic problems in algorithmic and graph theory. While we dispose of quite efficient algorithms for this ordinary problem (like the Dijkstra or Bellman-Ford algorithms), some slight…
A modified version of the Dijkstra algorithm using an inventive contraction hierarchy is proposed. The algorithm considers a directed acyclic graph with a conical or semi-circular structure for which a pair of edges is chosen iteratively…
In this paper, we address the numerical solution of the Optimal Transport Problem on undirected weighted graphs, taking the shortest path distance as transport cost. The optimal solution is obtained from the long-time limit of the gradient…
IC-planar graphs are those graphs that admit a drawing where no two crossed edges share an end-vertex and each edge is crossed at most once. They are a proper subfamily of the 1-planar graphs. Given an embedded IC-planar graph $G$ with $n$…
Utilizing graph algorithms is a common activity in computer science. Algorithms that perform computations on large graphs are not always efficient. This work investigates the Single-Source Shortest Path (SSSP) problem, which is considered…
Recently, one has seen a surge of interest in developing such methods including ones for learning such representations for (undirected) graphs (while preserving important properties). However, most of the work to date on embedding graphs…
Several algorithms for the construction of orthogonal drawings of graphs, including those based on the Topology-Shape-Metrics (TSM) paradigm, tend to prioritize the minimization of crossings. This emphasis has two notable side effects: some…
An orientation $D$ of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a digraph obtained from $G$ by replacing each edge by exactly one of the two possible arcs with the same end vertices. For each $v \in V(G)$, the indegree of $v$ in $D$, denoted by $d^-_D(v)$, is…
We consider the problem of finding an edge in a hidden undirected graph $G = (V, E)$ with $n$ vertices, in a model where we only allowed queries that ask whether or not a subset of vertices contains an edge. We study the non-adaptive model…
Minimum cuts have been closely related to shortest paths in planar graphs via planar duality - so long as the graphs are undirected. Even maximum flows are closely related to shortest paths for the same reason - so long as the source and…
An oriented graph is a directed graph without directed 2-cycles. Poljak and Turz\'{i}k (1986) proved that every connected oriented graph $G$ on $n$ vertices and $m$ arcs contains an acyclic subgraph with at least $\frac{m}{2}+\frac{n-1}{4}$…
In this paper, we introduce the problem of finding an orientation of a given undirected graph that maximizes the burning number of the resulting directed graph. We show that the problem is polynomial-time solvable on K\H{o}nig-Egerv\'{a}ry…
We prove the NP-completeness of the integer multiflow problem in planar graphs, with the following restrictions: there are only two demand edges, both lying on the infinite face of the routing graph. This was one of the open challenges…
The shortest path problem in graphs is fundamental to AI. Nearly all variants of the problem and relevant algorithms that solve them ignore edge-weight computation time and its common relation to weight uncertainty. This implies that taking…
We study stochastic graph optimization problems in a novel distributed setting. As in the standard centralized setting, a random subgraph $G^*$ of a known base graph $G$ is realized by including each edge $e$ independently with a known…
In this paper, we study the $k$-center problem of uncertain points on a graph. Given are an undirected graph $G = (V, E)$ and a set $\mathcal{P}$ of $n$ uncertain points where each uncertain point with a non-negative weight has $m$ possible…
An effective way to reduce clutter in a graph drawing that has (many) crossings is to group edges that travel in parallel into \emph{bundles}. Each edge can participate in many such bundles. Any crossing in this bundled graph occurs between…
The single-source shortest path problem (SSSP) with nonnegative edge weights is a notoriously difficult problem to solve efficiently in parallel---it is one of the graph problems said to suffer from the transitive-closure bottleneck. In…
An embedding of a graph on an orientable surface is orientably-regular (or rotary, in an equivalent terminology) if the group of orientation-preserving automorphisms of the embedding is transitive (and hence regular) on incident vertex-edge…
