We present an $f$-fault tolerant distance oracle for an undirected weighted graph where each edge has an integral weight from $[1 \dots W]$. Given a set $F$ of $f$ edges, as well as a source node $s$ and a destination node $t$, our oracle…

We propose an efficient $\epsilon$-differentially private algorithm, that given a simple {\em weighted} $n$-vertex, $m$-edge graph $G$ with a \emph{maximum unweighted} degree $\Delta(G) \leq n-1$, outputs a synthetic graph which…

We give an algorithm that for an input n-vertex graph G and integer k>0, in time 2^[O(k)]n either outputs that the treewidth of G is larger than k, or gives a tree decomposition of G of width at most 5k+4. This is the first algorithm…

Among the most fundamental graph parameters is the Diameter, the largest distance between any pair of vertices. Computing the Diameter of a graph with $m$ edges requires $m^{2-o(1)}$ time under the Strong Exponential Time Hypothesis (SETH),…

We consider the (exact, minimum) $k$-cut problem: given a graph and an integer $k$, delete a minimum-weight set of edges so that the remaining graph has at least $k$ connected components. This problem is a natural generalization of the…

Research of cycles through specific vertices is a central topic in graph theory. In this context, we focus on a well-studied computational problem, \textsc{$T$-Cycle}: given an undirected $n$-vertex graph $G$ and a set of $k$ vertices…

We give an algorithm to find a minimum cut in an edge-weighted directed graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges in $\tilde O(n\cdot \max(m^{2/3}, n))$ time. This improves on the 30 year old bound of $\tilde O(nm)$ obtained by Hao and Orlin…

We show that any n-vertex graph without even cycles of length at most 2k has at most 1/2(n^{1 + 1/k}) + O(n) edges, and polarity graphs of generalized polygons show that this is asymptotically tight when k = 2,3,5.

A monitoring edge-geodetic set of a graph is a subset $M$ of its vertices such that for every edge $e$ in the graph, deleting $e$ increases the distance between at least one pair of vertices in $M$. We study the following computational…

The problem of listing the $K$ shortest simple (loopless) $st$-paths in a graph has been studied since the early 1960s. For a non-negatively weighted graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, the most efficient solution is an $O(K(mn + n^2…
