Abstract We study the concept of continuous mean distance a weighted graph. For connected unweighted graphs, can be defined as arithmetic distances between all pairs vertices. This parameter provides natural measure compactness graph, and has been intensively studied, together with several variants, including its version for graphs. The analog (discrete) is points on edges Despite being very ge...

Fine-grained reductions have established equivalences between many core problems with Õ(n3)-time algorithms on n-node weighted graphs, such as Shortest Cycle, All-Pairs Shortest Paths (APSP), Radius, Replacement Paths, Second Shortest Paths, and so on. These problems also have Õ(mn)-time algorithms on m-edge n-node weighted graphs, and such algorithms have wider applicability. Are these mn boun...

We design an O(m) algorithm to find a minimum weighted colouring and a maximum weighted clique of a perfectly ordered graph. We also present two O(n’) algorithms to find a minimum weighted colouring of a comparability graph and of a triangulated graph. Our colouring algorithms use an algorithm to find a stable set meeting all maximal (with respect to set inclusion) cliques of a perfectly ordere...
