Improved Hardness of Approximation for Stackelberg Shortest-Path Pricing
We consider the Stackelberg shortest-path pricing problem, which is defined as follows. Given a graph G with fixed-cost and pricable edges and two distinct vertices s and t, we may...

Improved decremental algorithms for maintaining transitive closure and all-pairs shortest paths
We present improved algorithms for maintaining transitive closure and all-pairs shortest paths/distances in a digraph under deletion of edges. For the problem of transitive closur...

Fast and accurate estimation of shortest paths in large graphs
Computing shortest paths between two given nodes is a fundamental operation over graphs, but known to be nontrivial over large disk-resident instances of graph data. While a numbe...

On the hardness of pricing loss-leaders
Consider the problem of pricing n items under an unlimited supply with m buyers. Each buyer is interested in a bundle of at most k of the items. These buyers are single minded, wh...
