Let $G=(V, E)$ be an undirected $n$-vertices $m$-edges graph with non-negative edge weights. In this paper, we present three new algorithms for constructing a $(2k-1)$-stretch distance oracle with $O(n^{1+\frac{1}{k}})$ space. The first…

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…

We present an $f$-fault tolerant distance oracle for an undirected weighted graph where each edge has an integral weight from $[1 \dots W]$. Given a set $F$ of $f$ edges, as well as a source node $s$ and a destination node $t$, our oracle…

For an undirected unweighted graph G = (V, E) with n vertices and m edges, let d(u, v) denote the distance from u in V to v in V in G. An (alpha, beta)-stretch approximate distance oracle (ADO) for G is a data structure that, given u, v in…
