Deterministic Õ(n^{ω(σ)}) time algorithm for multi-source reachability in digraphs with n^σ sources, improving prior randomized n^{1+2/3ω(σ)} bound.
A greedy algorithm matches recent optimal size/hopbound tradeoffs for shortcut sets and receives a new existential optimality proof for matching hopsets up to logarithmic factors.
