We provide a decremental approximate Distance Oracle that obtains stretch of $1+\epsilon$ multiplicative and 2 additive and has $\hat{O}(n^{5/2})$ total cost (where $\hat{O}$ notation suppresses polylogarithmic and $n^{O(1)/\sqrt{n}}$…

Given an undirected graph $G$ with $m$ edges, $n$ vertices, and non-negative edge weights, and given an integer $k\geq 1$, we show that for some universal constant $c$, a $(2k-1)$-approximate distance oracle for $G$ of size $O(kn^{1 +…

An $f$-edge fault-tolerant distance sensitive oracle ($f$-DSO) with stretch $\sigma \ge 1$ is a data structure that preprocesses a given undirected, unweighted graph $G$ with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, and a positive integer $f$. When…

It was recently found that there are very close connections between the existence of additive spanners (subgraphs where all distances are preserved up to an additive stretch), distance preservers (subgraphs in which demand pairs have their…

We consider approximate {\em path-reporting} distance oracles, distance labeling and labeled routing with extremely low space requirement, for general undirected graphs. For distance oracles, we show how to break the n\log n space bound of…

Suppose we are given an $n$-node, $m$-edge input graph $G$, and the goal is to compute a spanning subgraph $H$ on $O(n)$ edges. This can be achieved in linear $O(m + n)$ time via breadth-first search. But can we hope for \emph{sublinear}…

We consider approximate distance oracles for edge-weighted n-vertex undirected planar graphs. Given fixed epsilon > 0, we present a (1+epsilon)-approximate distance oracle with O(n(loglog n)^2) space and O((loglog n)^3) query time. This…

Computing the diameter of a graph is a problem of great interest both in general algorithms research and specifically within fine-grained complexity, where it is a cornerstone hard problem. Recent work has achieved a full conditional lower…

We consider exact distance oracles for directed weighted planar graphs in the presence of failing vertices. Given a source vertex $u$, a target vertex $v$ and a set $X$ of $k$ failed vertices, such an oracle returns the length of a shortest…

It is unlikely that the discrete Fr\'echet distance between two curves of length $n$ can be computed in strictly subquadratic time. We thus consider the setting where one of the curves, $P$, is known in advance. In particular, we wish to…

Calculating the diameter of an undirected graph requires quadratic running time under the Strong Exponential Time Hypothesis and this barrier works even against any approximation better than 3/2. For planar graphs with positive edge…

Given a vertex-labeled graph, each vertex $v$ is attached with a label from a set of labels. The vertex-label query desires the length of the shortest path from the given vertex to the set of vertices with the given label. We show how to…

Our input is an undirected weighted graph $G = (V,E)$ on $n$ vertices along with a source set $S\subseteq V$. The problem is to preprocess $G$ and build a compact data structure such that upon query $Qu(s,v,f)$ where $(s,v) \in S\times V$…

We present new tradeoffs between space and query-time for exact distance oracles in directed weighted planar graphs. These tradeoffs are almost optimal in the sense that they are within polylogarithmic, sub-polynomial or arbitrarily small…

Let $s$ denote a distinguished source vertex of a non-negatively real weighted and undirected graph $G$ with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges. In this paper we present two efficient \emph{single-source approximate-distance sensitivity oracles},…

For a given a graph, a distance oracle is a data structure that answers distance queries between pairs of vertices. We introduce an $O(n^{5/3})$-space distance oracle which answers exact distance queries in $O(\log n)$ time for $n$-vertex…

Let $G$ be an unweighted $n$-node undirected graph. A \emph{$\beta$-additive spanner} of $G$ is a spanning subgraph $H$ of $G$ such that distances in $H$ are stretched at most by an additive term $\beta$ w.r.t. the corresponding distances…

We present an approximate distance oracle for a point set S with n points and doubling dimension {\lambda}. For every {\epsilon}>0, the oracle supports (1+{\epsilon})-approximate distance queries in (universal) constant time, occupies space…

The "short cycle removal" technique was recently introduced by Abboud, Bringmann, Khoury and Zamir (STOC '22) to prove fine-grained hardness of approximation. Its main technical result is that listing all triangles in an $n^{1/2}$-regular…

Let $G$ be an unweighted, undirected graph. An additive $k$-spanner of $G$ is a subgraph $H$ that approximates all distances between pairs of nodes up to an additive error of $+k$, that is, it satisfies $d_H(u,v) \le d_G(u,v)+k$ for all…
