Abstract

In this paper we study the problem of transitive closure in dynamic directed plane graphs. We show a dynamic algorithm supporting updates and queries in worst-case \(\tilde{O}(\sqrt{n})\) time. This is the first known algorithm for this problem with almost linear update time and query time product.
