Distance Oracles for Sparse Graphs
Abstract— Thorup and Zwick, in their seminal work, introduced the approximate distance oracle, which is a data structure that answers distance queries in a graph. For any integer...

A New Algorithm for Finding Minimal Cycle-Breaking Sets of Turns in a Graph
We consider the problem of constructing a minimal cycle-breaking set of turns for a given undirected graph. This problem is important for deadlock-free wormhole routing in compute...

Edge isoperimetry and rapid mixing on matroids and geometric Markov chains
We show how to bound the mixing time and log-Sobolev constants of Markov chains by bounding the edge-isoperimetry of their underlying graphs. To do this we use two recent techniqu...

On the Complexity of Computing Treelength
We resolve the computational complexity of determining the treelength of a graph, thereby solving an open problem of Dourisboure and Gavoille, who introduced this parameter, and a...

Approximation algorithms via contraction decomposition
We prove that the edges of every graph of bounded (Euler) genus can be partitioned into any prescribed number k of pieces such that contracting any piece results in a graph of bou...
