In this paper we show a deterministic parallel all-pairs shortest paths algorithm for real-weighted directed graphs. The algorithm has $\tilde{O}(nm+(n/d)^3)$ work and $\tilde{O}(d)$ depth for any depth parameter $d\in [1,n]$. To the best…

In the decremental Single-Source Shortest Path problem (SSSP), we are given a weighted directed graph $G=(V,E,w)$ undergoing edge deletions and a source vertex $r \in V$; let $n = |V|, m = |E|$ and $W$ be the aspect ratio of the graph. The…

We revisit a classical graph-theoretic problem, the \textit{single-source shortest-path} (SSSP) problem, in weighted unit-disk graphs. We first propose an exact (and deterministic) algorithm which solves the problem in $O(n \log^2 n)$ time…

Single Source Shortest Paths ($\textrm{SSSP}$) is among the most well-studied problems in computer science. In the incremental (resp. decremental) setting, the goal is to maintain distances from a fixed source in a graph undergoing edge…

We study the vertex-decremental Single-Source Shortest Paths (SSSP) problem: given an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ with lengths $\ell(e)\geq 1$ on its edges and a source vertex $s$, we need to support (approximate) shortest-path queries in…
