For r=n^{2/3}, this gives tilde{O}(n^{2/3} epsilon^{-2}) update time and tilde{O}(n^{2/3} epsilon^{-2}) query time. We also extend this algorithm to work for minor-free graphs with similar approximation and running time guarantees. Furthermore, we illustrate our framework on the all-pairs max flow and shortest path problems by giving corresponding dynamic algorithms in minor-free graphs with both sublinear update and query times. To the best of our knowledge, our results are the first to systematically establish such a connection between dynamic graph algorithms and vertex sparsification.\r\n\r\nWe also present both upper bound and lower bound for maintaining the energy of electrical flows in the incremental subgraph model, where updates consist of only vertex activations, which might be of independent interest."}],"publication":"25th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms","publication_status":"published","extern":"1","type":"conference","date_updated":"2023-02-16T11:56:37Z","volume":87,"publication_identifier":{"isbn":["978-3-95977-049-1"],"issn":["1868-8969"]},"day":"01","year":"2017","publisher":"Schloss Dagstuhl - Leibniz-Zentrum für Informatik","date_published":"2017-09-01T00:00:00Z","quality_controlled":"1","scopus_import":"1","title":"The power of vertex sparsifiers in dynamic graph algorithms","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://doi.org/10.4230/LIPIcs.ESA.2017.45","open_access":"1"}],"oa_version":"Published Version","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"intvolume":" 87"}
