Résumé : Given $p$ node pairs in an $n$-node graph, a distance preserver is a sparse subgraph that agrees with the original graph on all of the given pairwise distances. We prove the following bounds on the number of edges needed for a distance preserver: - Any $p$ node pairs in a directed weighted graph have a distance preserver on $O(n + n^{2/3} p)$ edges. - Any $p = Ω\left(\frac{n^2}{rs(n)}\right)$ node pairs in an undirected unweighted graph have a distance preserver on $O(p)$ edges, where $rs(n)$ is the Ruzsa-Szemerédi function from combinatorial graph theory. - As a lower bound, there are examples where one needs $ω(σ^2)$ edges to preserve all pairwise distances within a subset of $σ= o(n^{2/3})$ nodes in an undirected weighted graph. If we additionally require that the graph is unweighted, then the range of this lower bound falls slightly to $σ\le n^{2/3 - o(1)}$.
