Emergency navigation algorithms direct evacuees to exits when disastrous events such as fire take place. Due to the spread of hazards, latency in information updating and unstable flows of civilians, emergency evacuation is absolutely a…

In this paper we show a new algorithm for the decremental single-source reachability problem in directed planar graphs. It processes any sequence of edge deletions in $O(n\log^2{n}\log\log{n})$ total time and explicitly maintains the set of…

We present a data structure that we call a Dynamic Representative Set. In its most basic form, it is given two parameters $0< k < n$ and allows us to maintain a representation of a family $\mathcal{F}$ of subsets of $\{1,\ldots,n\}$. It…

An $n$-vertex $m$-edge graph is \emph{$k$-vertex connected} if it cannot be disconnected by deleting less than $k$ vertices. After more than half a century of intensive research, the result by [Li et al. STOC'21] finally gave a…

Motivated by recent applications of dominator computations, we consider the problem of dynamically maintaining the dominators of flow graphs through a sequence of insertions and deletions of edges. Our main theoretical contribution is a…

We present an algorithm for the maximum matching problem in dynamic (insertion-deletions) streams with *asymptotically optimal* space complexity: for any $n$-vertex graph, our algorithm with high probability outputs an $\alpha$-approximate…

This document presents an Integer Linear Programming (ILP) approach to optimize pedestrian evacuation in flood-prone historic urban areas. The model aims to minimize total evacuation cost by integrating pedestrian speed, route length, and…

Fix a parameter $k\in \mathbf{N}$. We give dynamic data structures that for a fully dynamic undirected graph $G$, updated over time by edge insertions and edge deletions, can answer the following queries: - Long $(u,v)$-path: Given $u,v\in…

We consider two combinatorial models on bunkbed graphs: maximum flow and self-avoiding walks. A bunkbed graph is defined as the Cartesian product $G\times K_2$, where $G$ is a finite graph and $K_2$ is the complete graph on two vertices,…

Real-world graphs, such as social networks, financial transactions, and recommendation systems, often demonstrate dynamic behavior. This phenomenon, known as graph stream, involves the dynamic changes of nodes and the emergence and…

Let $T=(V,E)$ be a tree with associated costs on its subtrees. A minmax $k$-partition of $T$ is a partition into $k$ subtrees, minimizing the maximum cost of a subtree over all possible partitions. In the centered version of the problem,…

We investigate the optimal transport (OT) problem over networks, wherein supply and demand are conceptualized as temporal marginals governing departure rates of particles from source nodes and arrival rates at sink nodes. This setting…

In this paper, we propose a method, based on graph signal processing, to optimize the choice of $k$ in $k$-nearest neighbor graphs ($k$NNGs). $k$NN is one of the most popular approaches and is widely used in machine learning and signal…

Network Diversion is a graph problem that has been extensively studied in both the network-analysis and operations-research communities as a measure of how robust a network is against adversarial disruption. This problem is especially well…

We consider the problem of aggregating data in a dynamic graph, that is, aggregating the data that originates from all nodes in the graph to a specific node, the sink. We are interested in giving lower bounds for this problem, under…

Dynamic graphs have emerged as an appropriate model to capture the changing nature of many modern networks, such as peer-to-peer overlays and mobile ad hoc networks. Most of the recent research on dynamic networks has only addressed the…

The {\sc Directed Maximum Leaf Out-Branching} problem is to find an out-branching (i.e. a rooted oriented spanning tree) in a given digraph with the maximum number of leaves. In this paper, we obtain two combinatorial results on the number…

We show a fast algorithm for determining the set of edges in a planar undirected unweighted graph, whose deletion reduces the maximum flow between two fixed vertices. This is a special case of the max flow vitality problem, that has been…

A periodic temporal graph, in its simplest form, is a graph in which every edge appears exactly once in the first $\Delta$ time steps, and then it reappears recurrently every $\Delta$ time steps, where $\Delta$ is a given period length.…

An out-branching of a directed graph is a rooted spanning tree with all arcs directed outwards from the root. We consider the problem of deciding whether a given directed graph D has an out-branching with at least k leaves (Directed…
