We give an $\widetilde{O}({m^{3/2 - 1/762} \log (U+W))}$ time algorithm for minimum cost flow with capacities bounded by $U$ and costs bounded by $W$. For sparse graphs with general capacities, this is the first algorithm to improve over…

We give a new $(1+\epsilon)$-approximation for sparsest cut problem on graphs where small sets expand significantly more than the sparsest cut (sets of size $n/r$ expand by a factor $\sqrt{\log n\log r}$ bigger, for some small $r$; this…
