We show that for any constant ε > 0, there is no Ω(log1−ε M)approximation algorithm for the directed congestion minimization problem on networks of size M unless NP ⊆ Z...
Abstract. Settling a ten years open question, we show that the NPcomplete Feedback Vertex Set problem is deterministically solvable in O(ck ·m) time, where m denotes the number of...
How efficiently can we search an unknown environment for a goal in unknown position? How much would it help if the environment were known? We answer these questions for simple poly...

Abstract. The standard serial algorithm for strongly connected components is based on depth rst search, which is di cult to parallelize. We describe a divide-and-conquer algorithm ...
We consider the problem of preprocessing an n-vertex digraph with real edge weights so that subsequent queries for the shortest path or distance between any two vertices can be efï...
