Distributed graph algorithms in the standard CONGEST model often exhibit the time-complexity lower bound ofrounds for several global problems, wherendenotes the number of nodes andDthe diameter of the input graph. Because such a lower bound is derived from special “hard-core” instances, it does not necessarily apply to specific popular graph classes such as planar graphs. The concept oflow-congestion shortcutswas initiated by Ghaffari and Haeupler [SODA2016] for addressing the design of CONGEST algorithms running fast in restricted network topologies. In particular, given a graph class, anf-round algorithm for constructing shortcuts of qualityqfor any instance inresults in-round algorithms for solving several fundamental graph problems such as minimum spanning tree and minimum cut, for. The main interest on this line is to identify the graph classes allowing the shortcuts that are efficient in the sense of breaking-round general lower bounds. In this study, we consider the relationship between the quality of low-congestion shortcuts and the following four major graph parameters: doubling dimension, chordality, diameter, and clique-width. The key ingredient of the upper-bound side is a novel shortcut construction technique known asshort-hop extension, which might be of independent interest.
