We investigate the time-complexity of the All-Pairs Max-Flow problem: Given a graph with $n$ nodes and $m$ edges, compute for all pairs of nodes the maximum-flow value between them. If Max-Flow (the version with a given source-sink pair…

The vitality of an edge in a graph with respect to the maximum flow between two fixed vertices $s$ and $t$ is defined as the reduction of the maximum flow value caused by the removal of that edge. The max-flow vitality problem has already…

We present a nearly-linear time algorithm for finding a minimum-cost flow in planar graphs with polynomially bounded integer costs and capacities. The previous fastest algorithm for this problem is based on interior point methods (IPMs) and…

We introduce the concept of compactly representing a large number of state sequences, e.g., sequences of activities, as a flow diagram. We argue that the flow diagram representation gives an intuitive summary that allows the user to detect…

We present an algorithm for computing $s$-$t$ maximum flows in directed graphs in $\widetilde{O}(m^{4/3+o(1)}U^{1/3})$ time. Our algorithm is inspired by potential reduction interior point methods for linear programming. Instead of using…

Given a graph $G=(V,E)$ with two distinguished vertices $s,t\in V$ and an integer $L$, an {\em $L$-bounded flow} is a flow between $s$ and $t$ that can be decomposed into paths of length at most $L$. In the {\em maximum $L$-bounded flow…

A multiflow in a planar graph is uncrossed if its support paths do not cross. Recently such flows have played a role in approximation algorithms for maximum disjoint paths in "fully-planar" instances, where the combined supply-demand graph…

Hypergraphs are structures that can be decomposed or described; in other words they are recursively countable. Here, we get exact and asymptotic enumeration results on hypergraphs by means of exponential generating functions. The number of…
