** 6.3 Shortest Paths
|

|
|

|
In an unweighted graph, BFS will find the shortest path between two nodes. For
|
||||||
|
weighted graphs the shortest path might have many more edges. Dijstra's
|
||||||
|
algorithm can help us find the shortest path in a weighted path. It runs in
|
||||||
|
O(n^{2}) time. One caveat is that it does not work with negative weighted edges.

Another problem in this space is the all-pairs shortest path, and for this we
|
||||||
|
would use the O(n^{3}) Floyd-Warshall algorithm which uses an adjacency matrix
|
||||||
|
instead since we needed to construct one anyway to track all the possible pairs.
|
||||||
|
It's a useful algorithm for figuring out /transitive closure/ which is a fancy way
|
||||||
|
of asking if some vertices are reachable from a node.
