Beyond-planarity focuses on the study of geometric and topological graphs that are in some sense nearly-planar. Here, planarity is relaxed by allowing edge crossings, but only with respect to some local forbidden crossing configurations.…
introduce {\sc Planar Disjoint Paths Completion}, a completion counterpart of the Disjoint Paths problem, and study its parameterized complexity. The problem can be stated as follows: given a, not necessarily connected, plane graph $G,$ $k$…
Changing a given configuration in a graph into another one is known as a re- configuration problem. Such problems have recently received much interest in the context of algorithmic graph theory. We initiate the theoretical study of the…
We study the unsplittable flow on a path problem (UFP) where we are given a path with non-negative edge capacities and tasks, which are characterized by a subpath, a demand, and a profit. The goal is to find the most profitable subset of…
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a supply graph and $H=(V,F)$ a demand graph defined on the same set of vertices. An assignment of capacities to the edges of $G$ and demands to the edges of $H$ is said to satisfy the \emph{cut condition} if for any cut in…
Unsplittable flow problems cover a wide range of telecommunication and transportation problems and their efficient resolution is key to a number of applications. In this work, we study algorithms that can scale up to large graphs and…

We give an algorithm to route a multicommodity flow in a planar graph $G$ with congestion $O(\log k)$, where $k$ is the maximum number of terminals on the boundary of a face, when each demand edge lie on a face of $G$. We also show that our…
Through legislation and technical advances users gain more control over how their data is processed, and they expect online services to respect their privacy choices and preferences. However, data may be processed for many different…
We study the algorithmic aspect of edge bundling. A bundled crossing in a drawing of a graph is a group of crossings between two sets of parallel edges. The bundled crossing number is the minimum number of bundled crossings that group all…
Given a set of well-formed terminal pairs on the external face of an undirected planar graph with unit edge weights, we give a linear-time algorithm for computing the union of non-crossing shortest paths joining each terminal pair, where…
We show a fast algorithm for determining the set of edges in a planar undirected unweighted graph, whose deletion reduces the maximum flow between two fixed vertices. This is a special case of the max flow vitality problem, that has been…

We investigate the time-complexity of the All-Pairs Max-Flow problem: Given a graph with $n$ nodes and $m$ edges, compute for all pairs of nodes the maximum-flow value between them. If Max-Flow (the version with a given source-sink pair…
In transportation systems (e.g. highways, railways, airports), traffic flows with distinct origin-destination pairs usually share common facilities and interact extensively. Such interaction is typically stochastic due to natural…
In this paper we present an O(n log n) algorithm for finding a maximum flow in a directed planar graph, where the vertices are subject to capacity constraints, in addition to the arcs. If the source and the sink are on the same face, then…
We study the computational complexity of optimally solving multi-robot path planning problems on planar graphs. For four common time- and distance-based objectives, we show that the associated path optimization problems for multiple robots…
We provide an algorithm which, with high probability, maintains a $(1-\epsilon)$-approximate maximum flow on an undirected graph undergoing $m$-edge additions in amortized $m^{o(1)} \epsilon^{-3}$ time per update. To obtain this result, we…
We study the classical Node-Disjoint Paths (NDP) problem: given an $n$-vertex graph $G$ and a collection $M=\{(s_1,t_1),\ldots,(s_k,t_k)\}$ of pairs of vertices of $G$ called demand pairs, find a maximum-cardinality set of node-disjoint…
We introduce the Unsplittable Transshipment Problem in directed graphs with multiple sources and sinks. An unsplittable transshipment routes given supplies and demands using at most one path for each source-sink pair. Although they are a…
