Computing the diameter of a graph is a problem of great interest both in general algorithms research and specifically within fine-grained complexity, where it is a cornerstone hard problem. Recent work has achieved a full conditional lower…

In this note we describe an application of low-high orders in fault-tolerant network design. Baswana et al. [DISC 2015] study the following reachability problem. We are given a flow graph $G = (V, A)$ with start vertex $s$, and a spanning…

We present a labeling scheme that assigns labels of size $\tilde O(1)$ to the vertices of a directed weighted planar graph $G$, such that for any fixed $\varepsilon>0$ from the labels of any three vertices $s$, $t$ and $f$ one can determine…

We study the \emph{sensitivity oracles problem for subgraph connectivity} in the \emph{decremental} and \emph{fully dynamic} settings. In the fully dynamic setting, we preprocess an $n$-vertices $m$-edges undirected graph $G$ with $n_{\rm…

The problem of designing connectivity oracles supporting vertex failures is one of the basic data structures problems for undirected graphs. It is already well understood: previous works [Duan--Pettie STOC'10; Long--Saranurak FOCS'22]…

The min-diameter of a directed graph $G$ is a measure of the largest distance between nodes. It is equal to the maximum min-distance $d_{min}(u,v)$ across all pairs $u,v \in V(G)$, where $d_{min}(u,v) = \min(d(u,v), d(v,u))$. Our work…

A $(1+\epsilon)$-approximate distance oracle of an edge-weighted graph is a data structure that returns an approximate shortest path distance between any two query vertices up to a $(1+\epsilon)$ factor. Thorup (FOCS 2001, JACM 2004) and…

When a network is prone to failures, it is very expensive to compute the shortest paths every time from the scratch. Distance sensitivity oracle provides this privilege to find the new shortest paths faster and with lower cost by once…

This paper addresses the problem of designing a {\em fault-tolerant} $(\alpha, \beta)$ approximate BFS structure (or {\em FT-ABFS structure} for short), namely, a subgraph $H$ of the network $G$ such that subsequent to the failure of some…

We study the problem of computing a minimum $s$--$t$ cut in an unweighted, undirected graph via \emph{cut queries}. In this model, the input graph is accessed through an oracle that, given a subset of vertices $S \subseteq V$, returns the…

We present the first compact distance oracle that tolerates multiple failures and maintains exact distances. Given an undirected weighted graph $G = (V, E)$ and an arbitrarily large constant $d$, we construct an oracle that given vertices…

An {\em orientation} of an undirected graph $G$ is an assignment of exactly one direction to each edge of $G$. Converting two-way traffic networks to one-way traffic networks and bidirectional communication networks to unidirectional…

Recent work has pinned down the existentially optimal size bounds for vertex fault-tolerant spanners: for any positive integer $k$, every $n$-node graph has a $(2k-1)$-spanner on $O(f^{1-1/k} n^{1+1/k})$ edges resilient to $f$ vertex…

We show how to assign labels of size $\tilde O(1)$ to the vertices of a directed planar graph $G$, such that from the labels of any three vertices $s,t,f$ we can deduce in $\tilde O(1)$ time whether $t$ is reachable from $s$ in the graph…

We study the maximum $s,t$-flow oracle problem on planar directed graphs where the goal is to design a data structure answering max $s,t$-flow value (or equivalently, min $s,t$-cut value) queries for arbitrary source-target pairs $(s,t)$.…

In fault-tolerant distance labeling we wish to assign short labels to the vertices of a graph $G$ such that from the labels of any three vertices $u,v,f$ we can infer the $u$-to-$v$ distance in the graph $G\setminus \{f\}$. We show that any…

In the $0$-Extension problem, we are given an edge-weighted graph $G=(V,E,c)$, a set $T\subseteq V$ of its vertices called terminals, and a semi-metric $D$ over $T$, and the goal is to find an assignment $f$ of each non-terminal vertex to a…

In 2001 Thorup and Zwick devised a distance oracle, which given an $n$-vertex undirected graph and a parameter $k$, has size $O(k n^{1+1/k})$. Upon a query $(u,v)$ their oracle constructs a $(2k-1)$-approximate path $\Pi$ between $u$ and…
