In this paper we provide an algorithm for maintaining a $(1-\epsilon)$-approximate maximum flow in a dynamic, capacitated graph undergoing edge additions. Over a sequence of $m$-additions to an $n$-node graph where every edge has capacity…

We present a general framework of designing efficient dynamic approximate algorithms for optimization on undirected graphs. In particular, we develop a technique that, given any problem that admits a certain notion of vertex sparsifiers,…

We present a polynomial-time $(\alpha_{GW} + \varepsilon)$-approximation algorithm for the Maximum Cut problem on interval graphs and split graphs, where $\alpha_{GW} \approx 0.878$ is the approximation guarantee of the Goemans-Williamson…

We present an algorithm that, with high probability, generates a random spanning tree from an edge-weighted undirected graph in $\tilde{O}(n^{4/3}m^{1/2}+n^{2})$ time (The $\tilde{O}(\cdot)$ notation hides $\operatorname{polylog}(n)$…

We give a new $(1+\epsilon)$-approximation for sparsest cut problem on graphs where small sets expand significantly more than the sparsest cut (sets of size $n/r$ expand by a factor $\sqrt{\log n\log r}$ bigger, for some small $r$; this…

The All-Pairs Min-Cut problem (aka All-Pairs Max-Flow) asks to compute a minimum $s$-$t$ cut (or just its value) for all pairs of vertices $s,t$. We study this problem in directed graphs with unit edge/vertex capacities (corresponding to…

We describe a polynomial-time algorithm which, given a graph $G$ with treewidth $t$, approximates the pathwidth of $G$ to within a ratio of $O(t\sqrt{\log t})$. This is the first algorithm to achieve an $f(t)$-approximation for some…

We show an $\widetilde{O}(m^{1.5} \epsilon^{-1})$ time algorithm that on a graph with $m$ edges and $n$ vertices outputs its spanning tree count up to a multiplicative $(1+\epsilon)$ factor with high probability, improving on the previous…

In this paper, we present a Branch and Bound algorithm called QuickBB for computing the treewidth of an undirected graph. This algorithm performs a search in the space of perfect elimination ordering of vertices of the graph. The algorithm…

I introduce a new approach to the maximum flow problem by a simple algorithm with a slightly better runtime. This approach is based on sorting arcs insight of vertices on a residual graph. This new approach leads to an O(mn^0.5) time bound…

Given a directed graph $G=(V,A)$, the Directed Maximum Leaf Spanning Tree problem asks to compute a directed spanning tree (i.e., an out-branching) with as many leaves as possible. By designing a Branch-and-Reduced algorithm combined with…

We study the NP-hard problem of approximating a Minimum Routing Cost Spanning Tree in the message passing model with limited bandwidth (CONGEST model). In this problem one tries to find a spanning tree of a graph $G$ over $n$ nodes that…

We present the first non-trivial algorithm for the all-pairs minimum cut problem in the cut-query model. Given cut-query access to an unweighted graph $G=(V,E)$ with $n$ vertices, our randomized algorithm constructs a Gomory-Hu tree of $G$,…

We present faster high-accuracy algorithms for computing $\ell_p$-norm minimizing flows. On a graph with $m$ edges, our algorithm can compute a $(1+1/\text{poly}(m))$-approximate unweighted $\ell_p$-norm minimizing flow with…

We give almost-linear-time algorithms for approximating rooted minimum cut and maximum arborescence packing in directed graphs, two problems that are dual to each other [Edm73]. More specifically, for an $n$-vertex, $m$-edge directed graph…

For many algorithmic problems, traditional algorithms that optimise on the number of instructions executed prove expensive on I/Os. Novel and very different design techniques, when applied to these problems, can produce algorithms that are…

We develop fast approximation algorithms for the minimum-cost version of the Bounded-Degree MST problem (BD-MST) and its generalization the Crossing Spanning Tree problem (Crossing-ST). We solve the underlying LP to within a $(1+\epsilon)$…

Gomory and Hu proved that if $ G $ is a finite graph with non-negative weights on its edges, then there exists a tree $ T $ (called now Gomory-Hu tree) on $ V(G) $ such that for all $ u\neq v\in V(G) $ there is an $ e\in E(T) $ such that…

We show that the pseudoflow algorithm for maximum flow is particularly efficient for the bipartite matching problem both in theory and in practice. We develop several implementations of the pseudoflow algorithm for bipartite matching, and…

Given a directed graph $G$ on $n$ vertices with a special vertex $s$, the directed minimum degree spanning tree problem requires computing a incoming spanning tree rooted at $s$ whose maximum tree in-degree is the smallest among all such…
