In this paper, we study the set cover problem in the fully dynamic model. In this model, the set of active elements, i.e., those that must be covered at any given time, can change due to element arrivals and departures. The goal is to…
We study the point location problem in incremental (possibly disconnected) planar subdivisions, that is, dynamic subdivisions allowing insertions of edges and vertices only. Specifically, we present an $O(n\log n)$-space data structure for…
In this paper, we study the role non-adaptivity plays in maintaining dynamic data structures. Roughly speaking, a data structure is non-adaptive if the memory locations it reads and/or writes when processing a query or update depend only on…
We give new deterministic bounds for fully-dynamic graph connectivity. Our data structure supports updates (edge insertions/deletions) in $O(\log^2n/\log\log n)$ amortized time and connectivity queries in $O(\log n/\log\log n)$ worst-case…
The dynamic set cover problem has been subject to extensive research since the pioneering works of [Bhattacharya et al, 2015] and [Gupta et al, 2017]. The input is a set system $(U, S)$ on a fixed collection $S$ of sets and a dynamic…
In this paper we propose a dynamic data structure that supports efficient algorithms for updating and querying singly connected Bayesian networks (causal trees and polytrees). In the conventional algorithms, new evidence in absorbed in time…
Given an array A of $n$ elements, we wish to support queries for the most frequent and least frequent element in a subrange $[l, r]$ of $A$. We also wish to support updates that change a particular element at index $i$ or insert/ delete an…
We present a deterministic fully-dynamic data structure for maintaining information about the cut-vertices in a graph; i.e. the vertices whose removal would disconnect the graph. Our data structure supports insertion and deletion of edges,…
Motivated by an application in computational topology, we consider a novel variant of the problem of efficiently maintaining dynamic rooted trees. This variant requires merging two paths in a single operation. In contrast to the standard…
We present a dynamic data structure for representing binary $n\times n$ matrices that are $d$-twin-ordered, for a~fixed parameter $d$. Our structure supports cell queries and single-cell updates both in $\Oh(\log \log n)$ expected worst…
Sliding-window aggregation is a widely-used approach for extracting insights from the most recent portion of a data stream. The aggregations of interest can usually be expressed as binary operators that are associative but not necessarily…
Worst-case optimal join algorithms have gained a lot of attention in the database literature. We now count with several algorithms that are optimal in the worst case, and many of them have been implemented and validated in practice.…
A maximal matching can be maintained in fully dynamic (supporting both addition and deletion of edges) $n$-vertex graphs using a trivial deterministic algorithm with a worst-case update time of O(n). No deterministic algorithm that…

We present a deterministic fully-dynamic data structure for maintaining information about the bridges in a graph. We support updates in $\tilde{O}((\log n)^2)$ amortized time, and can find a bridge in the component of any given vertex, or a…
In the dynamic set cover (SC) problem, the input is a dynamic universe of at most $n$ elements and a fixed collection of $m$ sets, where each element belongs to at most $f$ sets and each set has cost in $[1/C, 1]$. The objective is to…
