We investigate the problem of computing the top-$k$ simple shortest paths in weighted digraphs. While the single-pair variant -- finding the top-$k$ simple shortest paths between two specified vertices -- has been extensively studied over…

The Subgraph Isomorphism problem asks, given a host graph G on n vertices and a pattern graph P on k vertices, whether G contains a subgraph isomorphic to P. The restriction of this problem to planar graphs has often been considered. After…

Rearranging the rows or columns of a sparse matrix using an appropriate ordering can significantly reduce fill-ins, i.e., new nonzeros introduced during matrix factorization, decreasing memory usage and runtime. However, finding an ordering…

We study a single-machine scheduling problem with sequence dependent setup times, motivated by applications in manufacturing and service industries - in particular, the calendering stage in rubber flooring production. In this phase, setup…

In this paper, the recoverable robust shortest path problem under interval uncertainty representations is discussed. This problem is known to be strongly NP-hard and also hard to approximate in general digraphs. In this paper, the class of…

We study the problem of finding a small sparse cut in an undirected graph. Given an undirected graph G=(V,E) and a parameter k <= |E|, the small sparsest cut problem is to find a subset of vertices S with minimum conductance among all sets…

The Capacitated Vehicle Routing problem is to find a minimum-cost set of tours that collectively cover clients in a graph, such that each tour starts and ends at a specified depot and is subject to a capacity bound on the number of clients…

In this paper we present a novel non-parametric method of simplifying piecewise linear curves and we apply this method as a statistical approximation of structure within sequential data in the plane. We consider the problem of minimizing…

The Sparsest Cut is a fundamental optimization problem that has been extensively studied. For planar inputs the problem is in $P$ and can be solved in $\tilde{O}(n^3)$ time if all vertex weights are $1$. Despite a significant amount of…

In the Minimum Clique Routing Problem on Cycles \textsc{MCRPC} we are given a cycle together with a set of demands (weighted origin-destination pairs) and the goal is to route all the pairs minimizing the maximum weighted clique of the…

Utilizing graph algorithms is a common activity in computer science. Algorithms that perform computations on large graphs are not always efficient. This work investigates the Single-Source Shortest Path (SSSP) problem, which is considered…

The disjoint paths problem is a fundamental problem in algorithmic graph theory and combinatorial optimization. For a given graph $G$ and a set of $k$ pairs of terminals in $G$, it asks for the existence of $k$ vertex-disjoint paths…

The shortest path problem in graphs is a cornerstone of AI theory and applications. Existing algorithms generally ignore edge weight computation time. We present a generalized framework for weighted directed graphs, where edge weight can be…

We consider the following graph reconstruction problem: given an unweighted connected graph $G = (V,E)$ with visible vertex set $V$ and an oracle which takes two vertices $u,v \in V$ and returns the shortest path distance between $u$ and…

Finding the shortest path in a graph has applications to a wide range of optimization problems. However, algorithmic methods scale with the size of the graph in terms of time and energy. We propose a method to solve the shortest path…

The computation of short paths in graphs with arc lengths is a pillar of graph algorithmics and network science. In a more diverse world, however, not every short path is equally valuable. For the setting where each vertex is assigned to a…

We study the problem of finding, in a directed graph, an st-walk of length r mod q which is edge-minimum, i.e., uses the smallest number of distinct edges. Despite the vast literature on paths and cycles with modularity constraints, to the…

The GC problem is to identify a pre-determined number of center vertices such that the distances or costs from (or to) the centers to (or from) other vertices is minimized. The bottleneck of a path is the minimum capacity of edges on the…

Network redesign problems ask for modifications to the edges of a given graph to satisfy certain properties. In temporal graphs, where edges are only active at certain times, we are sometimes only allowed to modify when the edges are going…

Suppose that we are given two dominating sets $D_s$ and $D_t$ of a graph $G$ whose cardinalities are at most a given threshold $k$. Then, we are asked whether there exists a sequence of dominating sets of $G$ between $D_s$ and $D_t$ such…
