Course objectives

Elementary graph algorithms (representations of graphs, breadth-first search, depth-first search, topological sort, strongly connected components). Minimum spanning trees ( growing a minimum spanning tree, the algorithms of Kruskal and Prim). Single-source shortest paths (shortest paths and relaxation, Dijkstra's algorithm, the Bellman-Ford algorithm, single-source shortest paths in directed acyclic graphs). All-pairs shortest paths (shortest paths and matrix multiplication, the Floyd-Warshall algorithm, Johnson's algorithm for sparse graphs). Maximum flow (flow networks, the Ford-Fulkerson method, maximum bipartite matching). Data structures for graph algorithms (binary heaps, priority queues, binomial heaps, data structures for disjoint sets).
