We give a deterministic algorithm for finding the minimum (weight) cut of an undirected graph on $n$ vertices and $m$ edges using $\text{polylog}(n)$ calls to any maximum flow subroutine. Using the current best deterministic maximum flow…
We explore here surprising links between the time-cost-tradeoff problem and the minimum cost flow problem that lead to fast, strongly polynomial, algorithms for both problems. One of the main results is a new algorithm for the unit capacity…
We extend the well known bottleneck paths problem in two directions for directed unweighted (unit edge cost) graphs with positive real edge capacities. Firstly we narrow the problem domain and compute the bottleneck of the entire network in…

We develop efficient algorithms for a fundamental network design problem arising in potential-based flow models, which are central to many energy transport networks (e.g., hydrogen and electricity). In contrast to classical network flow…

A collection of $k$ mobile agents is arbitrarily deployed in the edges of a directed torus network where agents perpetually move to the successor edge. Each node has a switch that allows one agent of the two incoming edges to pass to its…
In the unsplittable flow problem on a path, we are given a capacitated path $P$ and $n$ tasks, each task having a demand, a profit, and start and end vertices. The goal is to compute a maximum profit set of tasks, such that for each edge…

We consider the ``minimum degree spanning tree'' problem. As input, we receive an undirected, connected graph $G=(V, E)$ with $n$ nodes and $m$ edges, and our task is to find a spanning tree $T$ of $G$ that minimizes $\max_{u \in V}…

Optimal power flow (OPF) is a critical optimization problem that allocates power to the generators in order to satisfy the demand at a minimum cost. Solving this problem exactly is computationally infeasible in the general case. In this…
