K-Best Solutions of MSO Problems on Tree-Decomposable Graphs

Authors: David Eppstein and Denis Kurz

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 89, 12th International Symposium on Parameterized and Exact Computation (IPEC 2017)


Abstract
We show that, for any graph optimization problem in which the feasible solutions can be expressed by a formula in monadic second-order logic describing sets of vertices or edges and in which the goal is to minimize the sum of the weights in the selected sets, we can find the k best solution values for n-vertex graphs of bounded treewidth in time O(n + k log n). In particular, this applies to finding the k shortest simple paths between given vertices in directed graphs of bounded treewidth, giving an exponential speedup in the per-path cost over previous algorithms.

A Sidetrack-Based Algorithm for Finding the k Shortest Simple Paths in a Directed Graph

Authors: Denis Kurz and Petra Mutzel

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 64, 27th International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2016)


Abstract
We present an algorithm for the k shortest simple path problem on weighted directed graphs (kSSP) that is based on Eppstein’s algorithm for a similar problem in which paths are allowed to contain cycles. In contrast to most other algorithms for kSSP, ours is not based on Yen's algorithm [Networks, 1971] and does not solve replacement path problems. Its worst-case running time is on par with state-of-the-art algorithms for kSSP. Using our algorithm, one may find O(m) simple paths with a single shortest path tree computation and O(n+m) additional time per path in well-behaved cases, where n is the number of nodes and m is the number of edges. Our computational results show that on random graphs and large road networks, these well-behaved cases are quite common and our algorithm is faster than existing algorithms by an order of magnitude.
