We revisit the problem of privately releasing the all-pairs shortest path distances of a weighted undirected graph up to low additive error, which was first studied by Sealfon [Sea16]. In this paper, we improve significantly on Sealfon's…
We study the problem of releasing the weights of all-pair shortest paths in a weighted undirected graph with differential privacy (DP). In this setting, the underlying graph is fixed and two graphs are neighbors if their edge weights differ…
We introduce a model for differentially private analysis of weighted graphs in which the graph topology $(V,E)$ is assumed to be public and the private information consists only of the edge weights $w:E\to\mathbb{R}^+$. This can express…

We propose an algorithm for counting below-threshold triangles in weighted graphs under local weight differential privacy. While prior work has largely focused on unweighted graphs, edge weights are intrinsic to many real-world networks. We…
Consider the following generalization of the classic binary search problem: A searcher is required to find a hidden target vertex $x$ in a graph $G$. To do so, they iteratively perform queries to an oracle, each about a chosen vertex $v$.…
In the pairwise weighted spanner problem, the input consists of an $n$-vertex-directed graph, where each edge is assigned a cost and a length. Given $k$ vertex pairs and a distance constraint for each pair, the goal is to find a…
Several problems that are NP-hard on general graphs are efficiently solvable on graphs with bounded treewidth. Efforts have been made to generalize treewidth and the related notion of pathwidth to digraphs. Directed treewidth, DAG-width and…
We present a new fast all-pairs shortest path algorithm for unweighted graphs. In breadth-first search which is said to representative and fast in unweighted graphs, the average number of accesses to adjacent vertices (expressed by…
We initiate a systematic study of algorithms that are both differentially private and run in sublinear time for several problems in which the goal is to estimate natural graph parameters. Our main result is a differentially-private…
We describe a polynomial-time algorithm which, given a graph $G$ with treewidth $t$, approximates the pathwidth of $G$ to within a ratio of $O(t\sqrt{\log t})$. This is the first algorithm to achieve an $f(t)$-approximation for some…
