چکیده

Motivated by a dynamic location problem for graphs, Chung, Graham and Saks introduced a graph parameter called windex. Graphs of windex 2 turned out to be, in graph-theoretic language, retracts of hypercubes. These graphs are also known as median graphs and can be characterized as partial binary Hamming graphs satisfying a convexity condition. In this paper an O(n 3 2 logn) algorithm is presented to recognize these graphs. As a by-product we are also able to isometrically embed median graphs in hypercubes in O(m log n) time.

Approximation and Fixed Parameter Subquadratic Algorithms for Radius and Diameter

The radius and diameter are fundamental graph parameters. They are defined as the minimum and maximum of the eccentricities in a graph, respectively, where the eccentricity of a vertex is the largest distance from the vertex to another node. In directed graphs, there are several versions of these problems. For instance, one may choose to define the eccentricity of a node in terms of the largest...

Approximation and Fixed Parameter Subquadratic Algorithms for Radius and Diameter in Sparse Graphs

The radius and diameter are fundamental graph parameters, with several natural definitions for directed graphs. Each definition is well-motivated in a variety of applications. All versions of diameter and radius can be solved via solving all-pairs shortest paths (APSP), followed by a fast postprocessing step. However, solving APSP on n-node graphs requires Ω(n) time even in sparse graphs. We st...

An Axiomatic and an Average-Case Analysis of Algorithms and Heuristics for Metric Properties of Graphs

In recent years, researchers proposed several algorithms that compute metric quantities of real-world complex networks, and that are very efficient in practice, although there is no worstcase guarantee. In this work, we propose an axiomatic framework to analyze the performances of these algorithms, by proving that they are efficient on the class of graphs satisfying certain axioms. Furthermore,...

All-Pairs Shortest Paths in Unit-Disk Graphs in Slightly Subquadratic Time

In this paper we study the all-pairs shortest paths problem in (unweighted) unit-disk graphs. The previous best solution for this problem required O ( n2 logn ) time, by running the O (n logn)-time single-source shortest path algorithm of Cabello and Jejčič (2015) from every source vertex, where n is the number of vertices. We not only manage to eliminate the logarithmic factor, but also obtain...

Generating Random Hyperbolic Graphs in Subquadratic Time

Complex networks have become increasingly popular for modeling various real-world phenomena. Realistic generative network models are important in this context as they simplify complex network research regarding data sharing, reproducibility, and scalability studies. Random hyperbolic graphs are a very promising family of geometric graphs with unit-disk neighborhood in the hyperbolic plane. Prev...
