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.…

Let $H$ be an edge-weighted graph, and let $G$ be a subgraph of $H$. We say that $G$ is an $f$-fault-tolerant $t$-spanner for $H$, if the following is true for any subset $F$ of at most $f$ edges of $G$: For any two vertices $p$ and $q$,…

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…

$\renewcommand{\Re}{\mathbb{R}}$We present a new optimal construction of a semi-separated pair decomposition (i.e., SSPD) for a set of $n$ points in $\Re^d$. In the new construction each point participates in a few pairs, and it extends…

We study the complexity of geometric problems on spaces of low fractal dimension. It was recently shown by [Sidiropoulos & Sridhar, SoCG 2017] that several problems admit improved solutions when the input is a pointset in Euclidean space…

We revisit the \textsc{$k$-Secluded Tree} problem. Given a vertex-weighted undirected graph $G$, its objective is to find a maximum-weight induced subtree $T$ whose open neighborhood has size at most $k$. We present a fixed-parameter…

Let $P \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ be a planar $n$-point set such that each point $p \in P$ has an associated radius $r_p > 0$. The transmission graph $G$ for $P$ is the directed graph with vertex set $P$ such that for any $p, q \in P$, there is…

To our knowledge, there are only two known algorithms for constructing sparse and light spanners for general graphs. One of them is the greedy algorithm of Alth$\ddot{o}$fer et al. \cite{ADDJS93}, analyzed by Chandra et al. in SoCG'92. The…

Given a metric space $\mathcal{M}=(X,\delta)$, a weighted graph $G$ over $X$ is a metric $t$-spanner of $\mathcal{M}$ if for every $u,v \in X$, $\delta(u,v)\le d_G(u,v)\le t\cdot \delta(u,v)$, where $d_G$ is the shortest path metric in $G$.…

We give a short and easy upper bound on the worst-case size of fault tolerant spanners, which improves on all prior work and is fully optimal at least in the setting of vertex faults.

Given a set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane, we show how to compute in $O(n \log n)$ time a subgraph of their Delaunay triangulation that has maximum degree 7 and is a strong planar $t$-spanner of $P$ with $t =(1+ \sqrt{2})^2 *\delta$, where…

We provide new algorithms for constructing spanners of arbitrarily edge- or vertex-colored graphs, that can endure up to $f$ failures of entire color classes. The failure of even a single color may cause a linear number of individual…

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…

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 geometric $t$-spanner $\mathcal{G}$ on a set $S$ of $n$ point sites in a metric space $P$ is a subgraph of the complete graph on $S$ such that for every pair of sites $p,q$ the distance in $\mathcal{G}$ is a most $t$ times the distance…

Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, and let $\varepsilon,\psi \in (0,1)$ be parameters. Here, we consider the task of constructing a $(1+\varepsilon)$-spanner for $P$, where every edge might fail (independently) with…

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…

Given a point set $P$ in a metric space and a real number $t \geq 1$, an \emph{oriented $t$-spanner} is an oriented graph $\overrightarrow{G}=(P,\overrightarrow{E})$, where for every pair of distinct points $p$ and $q$ in $P$, the shortest…

Given a set $P$ of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^2$ and an input line $\gamma$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$, we present an algorithm that runs in optimal $\Theta(n\log n)$ time and $\Theta(n)$ space to solve a restricted version of the $1$-Steiner tree…

Euclidean spanners are important geometric structures, having found numerous applications over the years. Cornerstone results in this area from the late 80s and early 90s state that for any $d$-dimensional $n$-point Euclidean space, there…
