Given an undirected unweighted graph $G = (V, E)$ on $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, a subgraph $H\subseteq G$ is a spanner of $G$ with stretch function $f: \mathbb{R}_+ \rightarrow \mathbb{R}_+$, if for every pair $s, t$ of vertices in $V$,…

Spanners for low dimensional spaces (e.g. Euclidean space of constant dimension, or doubling metrics) are well understood. This lies in contrast to the situation in high dimensional spaces, where except for the work of Har-Peled, Indyk and…

We show how to construct $(1+\varepsilon)$-spanner over a set $P$ of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that is resilient to a catastrophic failure of nodes. Specifically, for prescribed parameters $\vartheta,\varepsilon \in (0,1)$, the computed…

A $t$-spanner of an undirected $n$-vertex graph $G$ is a sparse subgraph $H$ of $G$ that preserves all pairwise distances between its vertices to within multiplicative factor $t$, also called the \emph{stretch}. We investigate the problem…

A Euclidean noncrossing Steiner $(1+\epsilon)$-spanner for a point set $P\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ is a planar straight-line graph that, for any two points $a, b \in P$, contains a path whose length is at most $1+\epsilon$ times the Euclidean…

This paper presents efficient distributed algorithms for a number of fundamental problems in the area of graph sparsification: We provide the first deterministic distributed algorithm that computes an ultra-sparse spanner in…

We consider the problem of constructing bounded-degree planar geometric spanners of Euclidean and unit-disk graphs. It is well known that the Delaunay subgraph is a planar geometric spanner with stretch factor $C_{del\approx 2.42$; however,…

Given a point set $P$ in the Euclidean space, a geometric $t$-spanner $G$ is a graph on $P$ such that for every pair of points, the shortest path in $G$ between those points is at most a factor $t$ longer than the Euclidean distance between…

A unit disk graph $G$ on a given set $P$ of points in the plane is a geometric graph where an edge exists between two points $p,q \in P$ if and only if $|pq| \leq 1$. A spanning subgraph $G'$ of $G$ is a $k$-hop spanner if and only if for…

A geometric $t$-spanner on a set of points in Euclidean space is a graph containing for every pair of points a path of length at most $t$ times the Euclidean distance between the points. Informally, a spanner is $\mathcal{O}(k)$-robust if…

Consider an undirected weighted graph G=(V,E) with |V|=n and |E|=m, where each vertex v is assigned a label from a set L of \ell labels. We show how to construct a compact distance oracle that can answer queries of the form: "what is the…

In this paper, we study the problem of fast constructions of source-wise round-trip spanners in weighted directed graphs. For a source vertex set $S\subseteq V$ in a graph $G(V,E)$, an $S$-sourcewise round-trip spanner of $G$ of stretch $k$…

A natural requirement of many distributed structures is fault-tolerance: after some failures, whatever remains from the structure should still be effective for whatever remains from the network. In this paper we examine spanners of general…

A spanner graph on a set of points in $R^d$ contains a shortest path between any pair of points with length at most a constant factor of their Euclidean distance. In this paper we investigate new models and aim to interpret why good…

Given a connected graph $G=(V,E)$ and a length function $\ell:E\to {\mathbb R}$ we let $d_{v,w}$ denote the shortest distance between vertex $v$ and vertex $w$. A $t$-spanner is a subset $E'\subseteq E$ such that if $d'_{v,w}$ denotes…

We study the problem of embedding graphs in the plane as good geometric spanners. That is, for a graph $G$, the goal is to construct a straight-line drawing $\Gamma$ of $G$ in the plane such that, for any two vertices $u$ and $v$ of $G$,…

A \emph{spanner} of a graph $G$ is a subgraph $H$ that approximately preserves shortest path distances in $G$. Spanners are commonly applied to compress computation on metric spaces corresponding to weighted input graphs. Classic spanner…

Maintaining and updating shortest paths information in a graph is a fundamental problem with many applications. As computations on dense graphs can be prohibitively expensive, and it is preferable to perform the computations on a sparse…

Consider a set $P$ of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$. In the discrete median line segment problem, the objective is to find a line segment bounded by a pair of points in $P$ such that the sum of the Euclidean distances from $P$ to the line…

A multiplicative $\alpha$-spanner $H$ is a subgraph of $G=(V,E)$ with the same vertices and fewer edges that preserves distances up to the factor $\alpha$, i.e., $d_H(u,v)\leq\alpha\cdot d_G(u,v)$ for all vertices $u$, $v$. While many…
