The shortest path problem is a typical problem in graph theory with wide potential applications. The state-of-the-art single-source shortest paths algorithm on the weight graph is the $\Delta$-stepping algorithm, which can efficiently…
In this paper we address two different related problems. We first study the problem of finding a simple shortest path in a $d$-dimensional real space subdivided in several polyhedra endowed with different $\ell_p$-norms. This problem is a…
Color-constrained subgraph problems are those where we are given an edge-colored (directed or undirected) graph and the task is to find a specific type of subgraph, like a spanning tree, an arborescence, a single-source shortest path tree,…
In this paper we address the constrained longest common subsequence problem. Given two sequences $X$, $Y$ and a constrained sequence $P$, a sequence $Z$ is a constrained longest common subsequence for $X$ and $Y$ with respect to $P$ if $Z$…
Various applications of graphs, in particular applications related to finding shortest paths, naturally get inputs with real weights on the edges. However, for algorithmic or visualization reasons, inputs with integer weights would often be…
Given an undirected $n$-vertex graph and $k$ pairs of terminal vertices $(s_1,t_1), \ldots, (s_k,t_k)$, the $k$-Disjoint Shortest Paths ($k$-DSP)-problem asks whether there are $k$ pairwise vertex-disjoint paths $P_1,\ldots, P_k$ such that…
Given a graph $G$, the longest path problem asks to compute a simple path of $G$ with the largest number of vertices. This problem is the most natural optimization version of the well known and well studied Hamiltonian path problem, and…
The Minimum Path Cover (MPC) problem consists of finding a minimum-cardinality set of node-disjoint paths that cover all nodes in a given graph. We explore a variant of the MPC problem on acyclic digraphs (DAGs) where, given a subset of…
This paper discusses the shortest path problem in a general directed graph with $n$ nodes and $K$ cost scenarios (objectives). In order to choose a solution, the min-max criterion is applied. The min-max version of the problem is hard to…
We consider the problem of computing shortest paths in a dense motion-planning roadmap $\mathcal{G}$. We assume that~$n$, the number of vertices of $\mathcal{G}$, is very large. Thus, using any path-planning algorithm that directly searches…
The composition problem for shortest paths asks the following: given shortest paths on weighted graphs M and N which share a common boundary, find the shortest paths on their union. This problem is a crucial step in any algorithm which uses…
The vertex connectivity of a graph $G$ is the size of the smallest set of vertices $S$ such that $G \setminus S$ is disconnected. For the class of planar graphs, the problem of vertex connectivity is well-studied, both from structural and…
Let $G$ be a planar graph and $I_s$ and $I_t$ be two independent sets in $G$, each of size $k$. We begin with a "token" on each vertex of $I_s$ and seek to move all tokens to $I_t$, by repeated "token jumping", removing a single token from…
Let $P$ be an $x$-monotone orthogonal polygon with $n$ vertices. We call $P$ a simple histogram if its upper boundary is a single edge; and a double histogram if it has a horizontal chord from the left boundary to the right boundary. Two…
Given a graph, the sparsest cut problem asks for a subset of vertices whose edge expansion (the normalized cut given by the subset) is minimized. In this paper, we study a generalization of this problem seeking for $ k $ disjoint subsets of…
The current paper deals with the subject of shortest path routing in transportation networks (in terms of travelling time), where the speed in several of the network's roads is a function of the time interval. The main contribution of the…
We consider the problem of routing on a network in the presence of line segment constraints (i.e., obstacles that edges in our network are not allowed to cross). Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in the plane and let $S$ be a set of…
The Shortest Paths Problem (SPP) is no longer unresolved. Just for a large scalar of instance on this problem, even we cannot know if an algorithm achieves the computing. Those cutting-edge methods are still in the low performance. If we go…
Link weights are the principal parameters of shortest path routing protocols, the most commonly used protocols for IP networks. The problem of optimally setting link weights for unique shortest path routing is addressed. Due to the…
We discuss a new algorithmic type of problem in random graphs studying the minimum number of queries one has to ask about adjacency between pairs of vertices of a random graph $G\sim {\mathcal G}(n,p)$ in order to find a subgraph which…
