We give an optimal algorithm for this problem. This algorithm improves the time per operation for various dynamic graph algorithms by a factor of O(log n). For example, it improves the time per update for fully dynamic connectivity from O(log3n) to O(log2n).","lang":"eng"}],"publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1098-2418"],"issn":["1042-9832"]},"intvolume":" 11","publisher":"Wiley","quality_controlled":"1","issue":"4","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"article_type":"original","status":"public","extern":"1","page":"369-379","oa_version":"None","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"}
