We study network design with a cost structure motivated by redundancy in data traffic. We are given a graph, g groups of terminals, and a universe of data packets. Each group of terminals desires a subset of the packets from its respective…
A graph $G$ is called $B_k$-VPG, for some constant $k\geq 0$, if it has a string representation on an axis-parallel grid such that each vertex is a path with at most $k$ bends and two vertices are adjacent in $G$ if and only if the…
Consider a setting where possibly sensitive information sent over a path in a network is visible to every {neighbor} of the path, i.e., every neighbor of some node on the path, thus including the nodes on the path itself. The exposure of a…
The diameter of a graph is one if its most important parameters, being used in many real-word applications. In particular, the diameter dictates how fast information can spread throughout data and communication networks. Thus, it is a…
Graph spanners are sparse subgraphs which approximately preserve all pairwise shortest-path distances in an input graph. The notion of approximation can be additive, multiplicative, or both, and many variants of this problem have been…
A $k$-additive spanner of a graph is a subgraph that preserves the distance between any two nodes up to a total additive error of $+k$. Efficient algorithms have been devised for constructing 2 [Aingworth et al. SIAM '99], 6 [Baswana et al.…
A good computer network is hard to disrupt. It is desired that the computer communication network remains connected even when some of the links or nodes fail. Since the communication links are expensive, one wants to achieve these goals…
Disjoint paths are defined as paths between the source and destination nodes where the intermediate nodes in any two paths are disjoint. They are helpful in fault-tolerance routing and securing message distribution in the network. Several…
Given an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$, an {\em $(\alpha,\beta)$-spanner} $H=(V,E')$ is a subgraph that approximately preserves distances; for every $u,v\in V$, $d_H(u,v)\le \alpha\cdot d_G(u,v)+\beta$. An $(\alpha,\beta)$-hopset is a graph…
Graph spanners and emulators are sparse structures that approximately preserve distances of the original graph. While there has been an extensive amount of work on additive spanners, so far little attention was given to weighted graphs.…
Given a graph $G$, a set $T$ of terminal vertices, and a demand graph $H$ on $T$, the \textsc{Multicut} problem asks for a set of edges of minimum weight that separates the pairs of terminals specified by the edges of $H$. The…
Additive spanners are fundamental graph structures with wide applications in network design, graph sparsification, and distance approximation. In particular, a $4$-additive spanner is a subgraph that preserves all pairwise distances up to…
A roundtrip spanner of a directed graph $G$ is a subgraph of $G$ preserving roundtrip distances approximately for all pairs of vertices. Despite extensive research, there is still a small stretch gap between roundtrip spanners in directed…
We study the construction of the minimum cost spanning geometric graph of a given rooted point set $P$ where each point of $P$ is connected to the root by a path that satisfies a given property. We focus on two properties, namely the…
Graph spanners are fundamental graph structures with a wide range of applications in distributed networks. We consider a standard synchronous message passing model where in each round $O(\log n)$ bits can be transmitted over every edge (the…
In SoCG 2022, Conroy and T\'oth presented several constructions of sparse, low-hop spanners in geometric intersection graphs, including an $O(n\log n)$-size 3-hop spanner for $n$ disks (or fat convex objects) in the plane, and an $O(n\log^2…
We use exponential start time clustering to design faster and more work-efficient parallel graph algorithms involving distances. Previous algorithms usually rely on graph decomposition routines with strict restrictions on the diameters of…
We present a new efficient localized algorithm to construct, for any given quasi-unit disk graph G=(V,E) and any e > 0, a (1+e)-spanner for G of maximum degree O(1) and total weight O(w(MST)), where w(MST) denotes the weight of a minimum…
We consider node-weighted survivable network design (SNDP) in planar graphs and minor-closed families of graphs. The input consists of a node-weighted undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ and integer connectivity requirements $r(uv)$ for each…
A tree $\sigma$-spanner of a positively real-weighted $n$-vertex and $m$-edge undirected graph $G$ is a spanning tree $T$ of $G$ which approximately preserves (i.e., up to a multiplicative stretch factor $\sigma$) distances in $G$. Tree…
