Algorithms: Single-Source Shortest Path

This document discusses single-source shortest path algorithms. It introduces Dijkstra's algorithm and Bellman-Ford algorithm. Dijkstra's algorithm can handle graphs with non-negative edge weights but not negative edge weights, while Bellman-Ford can handle graphs with negative edge weights but detects negative weight cycles. The document provides examples and explains the time complexity of the algorithms.

How to search in an algorithm
Until now we have studied
How to reach all elements with minimum cost

Now we come to:


How to reach a particular element with minimum cost/ how to find the shortest path
 Shortest path = a path of the minimum weight

 Weight of path V1 ---> Vk :

NEGATIVE WEIGHTS AND CYCLES?
- Negative edges are OK, as long as there are no negative weight cycles
"‫ الن ده هيسبب تناقص متتالي للقيمة "كأننا بنرجع بالزمن‬negative weight cycles ‫يعني مينفعش يكون‬
‫عندنا‬
- Shortest-paths can have no cycles ‫ولو كانت موجودة بنحسن الناتج باننا نحذفها‬
- Any shortest-path in graph G can be no longer than n – 1 edges, where n is the number
of vertices
RELAXATION:
- Relaxing an edge (u, v) means testing whether we can improve the shortest path to v

DIJKSTRA'S ALGORITHM
Non-negative edge weights
- Greedy, similar to Prim's algorithm for
MST.
- Like breadth-first search (if all weights
= 1, one can simply use BFS).
- Use Q, a priority queue which is re-
organized whenever some d
decreases.
Maintains a set S of vertices
At each step select "closest" vertex u,
add it to S, and relax all edges from u

EXAMPLE:

DIJKSTRA’S RUNNING TIME
- Extract-Min executed |V| time
- Decrease-Key executed |E| time
- Time = |V| T Extract-Min + |E| T Decrease-Key
T depends on different Q implementations

Can have negative-weight edges. Will “detect” reachable negative-weight cycles.
Step1- finish relaxation for all vertices .
Step2- check if all vertices are reachable or not.
You can find d(v) with negative value after finishing.

BELLMAN-FORD ALGORITHM

Time Complexity is
(|V|-1)|E| + |E| = O(VE).
Lec 10 Algorithms
Lec 10 Algorithms
Difference between Dijkstra’s and Bellman-Ford algorithms:
Dijkstra’s algorithm Bellman-Ford algorithm
doesn’t work when there are negative detects negative cycles (returns false) or
edges returns the shortest path-tree

Note: This is essentially dynamic programming.


Let d(i, j) = cost of the shortest path from s to i that is at most j hops.
