Local Representatives and Shortest Completions for Next-to-Shortest Paths in Directed Graphs

Given a directed graph with positive edge weights and two vertices s,t, a next-to-shortest s-t path is a shortest simple s-t path among those whose length is strictly larger than the shortest-path distance. The problem was introduced by Lalgudi, Papaefthymiou and Potkonjak in 1996; it is NP-hard when zero-weight edges...

Instance-Optimality of Bidirectional Dijkstra on Simple Graphs

It is shown that bidirectional Dijkstra is still instance-optimal on simple undirected weighted graphs under the order-oblivious model, where incident edges are given in a random order, and under the order-dependent model, where bidirectional Dijkstra is not instance-optimal.

Parameterizing the Complexity of Finding Long Paths in DAGs

This work studies the unambiguous complexity of the Long Path problem on DAGs under parameterization and obtains an algorithm that achieves unambiguous and co-unambiguous O ( k log n ) space while running in time polynomial in both n and k.

A Note on Directed Clique Token Sliding

It is shown that the problem is PSPACE -complete on oriented graphs, NP -complete on directed acyclic graphs (DAGs), and W -hard on DAGs when parameterized by k, and the NP -completeness of the bounded-length variant on DAGs is proved.

Worst-Case Optimal BGPs on Temporal Graphs

An index structure that, for a temporal graph with N edges, requires O(N) space and can evaluate extended BGPs in wco time and yields wco guarantees for related query types, including snapshot evaluation, version queries, and other temporal variants.
