We consider the problem of maintaining a $(1-\epsilon)$-approximation to the densest subgraph (DSG) in an undirected multigraph as it undergoes edge insertions and deletions (the fully dynamic setting). Sawlani and Wang [SW20] developed a…
We study dynamic planar graphs with $n$ vertices, subject to edge deletion, edge contraction, edge insertion across a face, and the splitting of a vertex in specified corners. We dynamically maintain a combinatorial embedding of such a…

We consider preprocessing a set $S$ of $n$ points in convex position in the plane into a data structure supporting queries of the following form: given a point $q$ and a directed line $\ell$ in the plane, report the point of $S$ that is…
We present a data structure that, given a graph $G$ of $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, and a suitable pair of nested $r$-divisions of $G$, preprocesses $G$ in $O(m+n)$ time and handles any series of edge-deletions in $O(m)$ total time while…

We introduce a new dynamic data structure for maintaining the strongly connected components (SCCs) of a directed graph (digraph) under edge deletions, so as to answer a rich repertoire of connectivity queries. Our main technical…
Temporal graphs represent interactions between entities over the time. These interactions may be direct (a contact between two nodes at some time instant), or indirect, through sequences of contacts called temporal paths (journeys).…
