Recently Elkin and Solomon gave a construction of spanners for doubling metrics that has constant maximum degree, hop-diameter O(log n) and lightness O(log n) (i.e., weight O(log n)w(MST). This resolves a long standing conjecture proposed…

In a seminal STOC'95 paper, titled "Euclidean spanners: short, thin and lanky", Arya et al. devised a construction of Euclidean $(1+\eps)$-spanners that achieves constant degree, diameter $O(\log n)$, and weight $O(\log^2 n) \cdot…

An essential requirement of spanners in many applications is to be fault-tolerant: a $(1+\epsilon)$-spanner of a metric space is called (vertex) $f$-fault-tolerant ($f$-FT) if it remains a $(1+\epsilon)$-spanner (for the non-faulty points)…

In this paper we devise an optimal construction of fault-tolerant spanners for doubling metrics. Specifically, for any $n$-point doubling metric, any $\eps > 0$, and any integer $0 \le k \le n-2$, our construction provides a…

In STOC'95 \cite{ADMSS95} Arya et al.\ showed that for any set of $n$ points in $\mathbb R^d$, a $(1+\epsilon)$-spanner with diameter at most 2 (respectively, 3) and $O(n \log n)$ edges (resp., $O(n \log \log n)$ edges) can be built in $O(n…

In this paper we consider the problem of efficiently constructing $k$-vertex fault-tolerant geometric $t$-spanners in $\dspace$ (for $k \ge 0$ and $t >1$). Vertex fault-tolerant spanners were introduced by Levcopoulus et. al in 1998. For…

Lightness, sparsity, and hop-diameter are the fundamental parameters of geometric spanners. Arya et al. [STOC'95] showed in their seminal work that there exists a construction of Euclidean $(1+\varepsilon)$-spanners with hop-diameter…

In this paper we devise a novel \emph{unified} construction of Euclidean spanners that trades between the maximum degree, diameter and weight gracefully. For a positive integer k, our construction provides a (1+eps)-spanner with maximum…

In STOC'95 [ADMSS'95] Arya et al. showed that any set of $n$ points in $\mathbb R^d$ admits a $(1+\epsilon)$-spanner with hop-diameter at most 2 (respectively, 3) and $O(n \log n)$ edges (resp., $O(n \log \log n)$ edges). They also gave a…

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…

The FOCS'19 paper of Le and Solomon, culminating a long line of research on Euclidean spanners, proves that the lightness (normalized weight) of the greedy $(1+\epsilon)$-spanner in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is $\tilde{O}(\epsilon^{-d})$ for any $d =…

Fault-tolerant spanners are fundamental objects that preserve distances in graphs even under edge failures. A long line of work culminating in Bodwin, Dinitz, Robelle (SODA 2022) gives $(2k-1)$-stretch, $f$-fault-tolerant spanners with…

Graph spanners are well-studied and widely used both in theory and practice. In a recent breakthrough, Chechik and Wulff-Nilsen [CW18] improved the state-of-the-art for light spanners by constructing a $(2k-1)(1+\epsilon)$-spanner with…

Lightness and sparsity are two natural parameters for Euclidean $(1+\varepsilon)$-spanners. Classical results show that, when the dimension $d\in \mathbb{N}$ and $\varepsilon>0$ are constant, every set $S$ of $n$ points in $d$-space admits…

We show that for every $n$-point metric space $M$ there exists a spanning tree $T$ with unweighted diameter $O(\log n)$ and weight $\omega(T) = O(\log n) \cdot \omega(MST(M))$. Moreover, there is a designated point $rt$ such that for every…

We initiate the study on fault-tolerant spanners in hypergraphs and develop fast algorithms for their constructions. A fault-tolerant (FT) spanner preserves approximate distances under network failures, often used in applications like…

For any constants $d\ge 1$, $\epsilon >0$, $t>1$, and any $n$-point set $P\subset\mathbb{R}^d$, we show that there is a geometric graph $G=(P,E)$ having $O(n\log^2 n\log\log n)$ edges with the following property: For any $F\subseteq P$,…

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…

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…

Lightness and sparsity are two natural parameters for Euclidean $(1+\varepsilon)$-spanners. Classical results show that, when the dimension $d\in \mathbb{N}$ and $\varepsilon>0$ are constant, every set $S$ of $n$ points in $d$-space admits…
