Query: Certification of Compact Low-Stretch Routing Schemes   On the one hand, the correctness of routing protocols in networks is an issue
of utmost importance for guaranteeing the delivery of messages from any source
to any target. On the other hand, a large collection of routing schemes have
been proposed during the last two decades, with the objective of transmitting
messages along short routes, while keeping the routing tables small.
Regrettably, all these schemes share the property that an adversary may modify
the content of the routing tables with the objective of, e.g., blocking the
delivery of messages between some pairs of nodes, without being detected by any
node.
  In this paper, we present a simple certification mechanism which enables the
nodes to locally detect any alteration of their routing tables. In particular,
we show how to locally verify the stretch-3 routing scheme by Thorup and Zwick
[SPAA 2001] by adding certificates of $\widetilde{O}(\sqrt{n})$ bits at each
node in $n$-node networks, that is, by keeping the memory size of the same
order of magnitude as the original routing tables. We also propose a new
name-independent routing scheme using routing tables of size
$\widetilde{O}(\sqrt{n})$ bits. This new routing scheme can be locally verified
using certificates on $\widetilde{O}(\sqrt{n})$ bits. Its stretch is3 if using
handshaking, and 5 otherwise.
