Query: Join-Reachability Problems in Directed Graphs   For a given collection G of directed graphs we define the join-reachability
graph of G, denoted by J(G), as the directed graph that, for any pair of
vertices a and b, contains a path from a to b if and only if such a path exists
in all graphs of G. Our goal is to compute an efficient representation of J(G).
In particular, we consider two versions of this problem. In the explicit
version we wish to construct the smallest join-reachability graph for G. In the
implicit version we wish to build an efficient data structure (in terms of
space and query time) such that we can report fast the set of vertices that
reach a query vertex in all graphs of G. This problem is related to the
well-studied reachability problem and is motivated by emerging applications of
graph-structured databases and graph algorithms. We consider the construction
of join-reachability structures for two graphs and develop techniques that can
be applied to both the explicit and the implicit problem. First we present
optimal and near-optimal structures for paths and trees. Then, based on these
results, we provide efficient structures for planar graphs and general directed
graphs.
