We study the problem of computing a minimum $s$--$t$ cut in an unweighted, undirected graph via \emph{cut queries}. In this model, the input graph is accessed through an oracle that, given a subset of vertices $S \subseteq V$, returns the…
We consider the directed minimum weight cycle problem in the fully dynamic setting. To the best of our knowledge, so far no fully dynamic algorithms have been designed specifically for the minimum weight cycle problem in general digraphs.…

In the decremental single-source shortest paths problem, the goal is to maintain distances from a fixed source $s$ to every vertex $v$ in an $m$-edge graph undergoing edge deletions. In this paper, we conclude a long line of research on…
Consider the following distance query for an $n$-node graph $G$ undergoing edge insertions and deletions: given two sets of nodes $I$ and $J$, return the distances between every pair of nodes in $I\times J$. This query is rather general and…
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…

We present a \emph{deterministic exact algorithm} for the \emph{minimum $k$-cut problem} on simple graphs. Our approach combines the \emph{principal sequence of partitions (PSP)}, derived canonically from ideal loads, with a single level of…
We consider the problem of finding a local optimum for Max-Cut with FLIP-neighborhood, in which exactly one node changes the partition. Schaeffer and Yannakakis (SICOMP, 1991) showed PLS-completeness of this problem on graphs with unbounded…
We present a deterministic fully dynamic algorithm to answer $c$-edge connectivity queries on pairs of vertices in $n^{o(1)}$ worst case update and query time for any positive integer $c = (\log n)^{o(1)}$ for a graph with $n$ vertices.…
We initiate the study of dynamic algorithms for graph sparsification problems and obtain fully dynamic algorithms, allowing both edge insertions and edge deletions, that take polylogarithmic time after each update in the graph. Our three…
Given an $n$-vertex $m$-edge graph $G$ with non negative edge-weights, the girth of $G$ is the weight of a shortest cycle in $G$. For any graph $G$ with polynomially bounded integer weights, we present a deterministic algorithm that…

We study a $(1+\epsilon)$-approximate single-source shortest paths (henceforth, $(1+\epsilon)$-SSSP) in $n$-vertex undirected, weighted graphs in the parallel (PRAM) model of computation. A randomized algorithm with polylogarithmic time and…
Whether a graph $G=(V,E)$ is connected is arguably its most fundamental property. Naturally, connectivity was the first characteristic studied for dynamic graphs, i.e. graphs that undergo edge insertions and deletions. While connectivity…
We consider the problem of maintaining an (approximately) minimum vertex cover in an $n$-node graph $G = (V, E)$ that is getting updated dynamically via a sequence of edge insertions/deletions. We show how to maintain a…
