For a weighted, undirected graph G = (V;E) where jV j = n and jEj = m, we examine the single most vital edge with respect to two measurements related to all-pairs shortest paths (APSP). The rst measurement considers only the impact of the removal of a single edge from the APSP on the shortest distance between each vertex pair. The second considers the total weight of all the edges which make up...
