A mixed graph $G$ is a graph that consists of both undirected and directed edges. An orientation of $G$ is formed by orienting all the undirected edges of $G$, i.e., converting each undirected edge $\{u,v\}$ into a directed edge that is…

We (nearly) settle the time complexity for computing vertex fault-tolerant (VFT) spanners with optimal sparsity (up to polylogarithmic factors). VFT spanners are sparse subgraphs that preserve distance information, up to a small…
An algorithm on weighted graphs is called universally optimal if it is optimal for every input graph, in the worst case taken over all weight assignments. Informally, this means the algorithm is competitive even with algorithms that are…
