In the dynamic approximate maximum bipartite matching problem we are given bipartite graph $G$ undergoing updates and our goal is to maintain a matching of $G$ which is large compared the maximum matching size $\mu(G)$. We define a dynamic…
We give an $O(n \log \log n)$ time algorithm for computing the minimum cut (or equivalently, the shortest cycle) of a weighted directed planar graph. This improves the previous fastest $O(n\log^3 n)$ solution. Interestingly, while in…
We give almost-linear-time algorithms for approximating rooted minimum cut and maximum arborescence packing in directed graphs, two problems that are dual to each other [Edm73]. More specifically, for an $n$-vertex, $m$-edge directed graph…

We improve on random sampling techniques for approximately solving problems that involve cuts and flows in graphs. We give a near-linear-time construction that transforms any graph on n vertices into an O(n\log n)-edge graph on the same…
We consider the minimum cut problem in undirected, weighted graphs. We give a simple algorithm to find a minimum cut that $2$-respects (cuts two edges of) a spanning tree $T$ of a graph $G$. This procedure can be used in place of the…
In the Hedge Cut problem, the edges of a graph are partitioned into groups called hedges, and the question is what is the minimum number of hedges to delete to disconnect the graph. Ghaffari, Karger, and Panigrahi [SODA 2017] showed that…
We study the problem of computing a minimum cut in a simple, undirected graph and give a deterministic $O(m \log^2 n \log\log^2 n)$ time algorithm. This improves both on the best previously known deterministic running time of $O(m \log^{12}…
In the decremental single-source shortest paths (SSSP) problem, the input is an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges undergoing edge deletions, together with a fixed source vertex $s\in V$. The goal is to maintain a…
We propose a fully dynamic algorithm for maintaining reachability information in directed graphs. The proposed deterministic dynamic algorithm has an update time of $O((ins*n^{2}) + (del * (m+n*log(n))))$ where $m$ is the current number of…
We present the first parallel batch-dynamic algorithm for approximating coreness decomposition with worst-case update times. Given any batch of edge insertions and deletions, our algorithm processes all these updates in $ \text{poly}(\log…
The expansion of a hypergraph, a natural extension of the notion of expansion in graphs, is defined as the minimum over all cuts in the hypergraph of the ratio of the number of the hyperedges cut to the size of the smaller side of the cut.…
This paper considers fully dynamic graph algorithms with both faster worst case update time and sublinear space. The fully dynamic graph connectivity problem is the following: given a graph on a fixed set of n nodes, process an online…
We give the first almost-linear time algorithm for computing the \emph{maximal $k$-edge-connected subgraphs} of an undirected unweighted graph for any constant $k$. More specifically, given an $n$-vertex $m$-edge graph $G=(V,E)$ and a…
A stable cutset is a set of vertices $S$ of a connected graph, that is pairwise non-adjacent and when deleting $S$, the graph becomes disconnected. Determining the existence of a stable cutset in a graph is known to be NP-complete. In this…
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 design new algorithms for approximating 2CSPs on graphs with bounded threshold rank, that is, whose normalized adjacency matrix has few eigenvalues larger than $\varepsilon$, smaller than $-\varepsilon$, or both. Unlike on worst-case…
Algebraic data structures are the main subroutine for maintaining distances in fully dynamic graphs in subquadratic time. However, these dynamic algebraic algorithms generally cannot maintain the shortest paths, especially against adaptive…
