We propose a fully dynamic algorithm for maintaining reachability information in directed graphs. The proposed deterministic dynamic algorithm has an update time of $O((ins*n^{2}) + (del * (m+n*log(n))))$ where $m$ is the current number of…

We give a fully dynamic deterministic algorithm for maintaining a maximal matching of an $n$-vertex graph in $\tilde{O}(n^{8/9})$ amortized update time. This breaks the long-standing $\Omega(n)$-update-time barrier on dense graphs,…

Given a directed graph $G$, a transitive reduction $G^t$ of $G$ (first studied by Aho, Garey, Ullman [SICOMP `72]) is a minimal subgraph of $G$ that preserves the reachability relation between every two vertices in $G$. In this paper, we…
