New Algorithms and Lower Bounds for All-Pairs Max-Flow in...

We investigate the time-complexity of the All-Pairs Max-Flow problem: Given a graph with $n$ nodes and $m$ edges, compute for all pairs of nodes the maximum-flow value between them. If Max-Flow (the version with a given source-sink pair $s,t$) can be solved in time $T(m)$, then an $O(n^2) \cdot T(m)$ is a trivial upper bound. But can we do better? For directed graphs, recent results in fine-grained complexity suggest that this time bound is essentially optimal. In contrast, for undirected graphs with edge capacities, a seminal algorithm of Gomory and Hu (1961) runs in much faster time $O(n)\cdot T(m)$. Under the plausible assumption that Max-Flow can be solved in near-linear time $m^{1+o(1)}$, this half-century old algorithm yields an $nm^{1+o(1)}$ bound. Several other algorithms have been designed through the years, including $\tilde{O}(mn)$ time for unit-capacity edges (unconditionally), but none of them break the $O(mn)$ barrier. Meanwhile, no super-linear lower bound was shown for undirected graphs. We design the first hardness reductions for All-Pairs Max-Flow in undirected graphs, giving an essentially optimal lower bound for the $\textit{node-capacities}$ setting. For edge capacities, our efforts to prove similar lower bounds have failed, but we have discovered a surprising new algorithm that breaks the $O(mn)$ barrier for graphs with unit-capacity edges! Assuming $T(m)=m^{1+o(1)}$, our algorithm runs in time $m^{3/2 +o(1)}$ and outputs a cut-equivalent tree (similarly to the Gomory-Hu algorithm). Even with current Max-Flow algorithms we improve state-of-the-art as long as $m=O(n^{5/3-\varepsilon})$. Finally, we explain the lack of lower bounds by proving a $\textit{non-reducibility}$ result. This result is based on a new quasi-linear time $\tilde{O}(m)$ $\textit{non-deterministic}$ algorithm for constructing a cut-equivalent tree and may be of independent interest.
