Shortest paths research narrows a 25-year gap in graph algorithms
Most of you have used a navigation app like Google Maps for your travels at some point. These apps rely on algorithms that compute shortest paths through vast networks. Now imagine scaling that task ...
Abstract: Graph theory is a powerful tool for addressing problems involving discrete structures, such as determining the shortest length of connected river networks or the shortest distance between ...

Why doesn’t lightning take the shortest path?
A clear science explanation breaks down how lightning forms and why it branches through the air instead of traveling in a straight line to the ground. No arrests yet as police are still investigating ...
"Breaking the Sorting Barrier for Directed Single-Source Shortest Paths" by Ran Duan, Jiayi Mao, Xiao Mao, Xinkai Shu, and Longhui Yin (2025) Use the road_network_benchmark example to evaluate the ...
Shortest path algorithms sit at the heart of modern graph theory and many of the systems that move people, data, and goods around the world. After nearly seventy years of relying on the same classic ...
When Edsger W. Dijkstra published his algorithm in 1959, computer networks were barely a thing. The algorithm in question found the shortest path between any two nodes on a graph, with a variant ...
@pdobrev: 'Would be great if the GraphAlgos shortestPath (expander, maxDepth, maxHitCount) and pathsWithLength (expander, length) were exposed via the /node//paths API call.' ...
