Abstract

We present the first dynamic shortest paths algorithms that make any progress beyond a longstanding O(n) update time barrier (while maintaining a reasonable query time), although it is only progress for not-too-sparse graphs. In particular, we obtain new decremental algorithms for two approximate shortest-path problems in unweighted, undirected graphs. Both algorithms are randomized (Las Vegas).
