Recoloring a graph is about finding a sequence of proper colorings of this graph from an initial coloring $\sigma$ to a target coloring $\eta$. Adding the constraint that each pair of consecutive colorings must differ on exactly one vertex,…

A dynamic algorithm against an adaptive adversary is required to be correct when the adversary chooses the next update after seeing the previous outputs of the algorithm. We obtain faster dynamic algorithms against an adaptive adversary and…
