Abstract

We present the first fully dynamic algorithm for maintaining all pairs shortest paths in directed graphs with realvalued edge weights. Given a dynamic directed graph G such that each edge can assume at most S different real values, we show how to support updates deterministicallyin 0(S \cdot n^{2.5} \log ^3 n) amortized time and queries in optimal worst-case time. No previous fully dynamic algorithm was known for this problem. In the special case where edge weights can only be increased, we give a randomized algorithm with one-sided error which supports updates faster in 0(S \cdot n\log ^3 n) amortized time.
