All-pairs bottleneck paths for general graphs in truly sub-cubic time
Virginia Vassilevska, Ryan Williams, Raphael Yuster · 2007
In the all-pairs bottleneck paths (APBP) problem (a.k.a. all-pairs maximum capacity paths), one is given a directed graph with real non-negative capacities on its edges and is asked to determine, for all pairs of vertices s and t, the capacity of a single path for which a maximum amount of flow can be routed from s to t. The APBP problem was first studied in operations research, shortly after the introduction of maximum flows and all-pairs shortest paths.
