Steiner Transitive-Closure Spanners of Low-Dimensional Posets
Given a directed graph G = (V, E) and an integer k ≥ 1, a Steiner k-transitive-closure-spanner (Steiner k-TC-spanner) of G is a directed graph H = (VH , EH ) such that (1) V ⊆ ...

Sandpile groups and spanning trees of directed line graphs
Abstract. We generalize a theorem of Knuth relating the oriented spanning trees of a directed graph G and its directed line graph LG. The sandpile group is an abelian group associa...

Transitive-Closure Spanners: A Survey
We survey results on transitive-closure spanners and their applications. Given a directed graph G = (V, E) and an integer k 1, a k-transitive-closure-spanner (k-TC-spanner) of G ...

On the implementation of public keys algorithms based on algebraic graphs over finite commutative rings
We will consider balanced directed graphs, i.e., graphs of binary relations, for which the number of inputs and number of outputs are the same for each vertex. The commutative diag...

Minimum cost capacity installation for multicommodity network flows
Consider a directed graph G = (V;A), and a set of tra c demands to be shipped between pairs of nodes in V. Capacity has to be installed on the edges of this graph (in integer mult...

Dynamic algorithms for geometric spanners of small diameter: Randomized solutions
Let S be a set of n points in IRd and let t > 1 be a real number. A t-spanner for S is a directed graph having the points of S as its vertices, such that for any pair p and q o...

Semiring Frameworks and Algorithms for Shortest-Distance Problems
We define general algebraic frameworks for shortest-distance problems based on the structure of semirings. We give a generic algorithm for finding single-source shortest distances...

On a game in directed graphs
Inspired by recent algorithms for electing a leader in a distributed system, we study the following game in a directed graph: each vertex selects one of its outgoing arcs (if any)...
