In this paper, the recoverable robust shortest path problem under interval uncertainty representations is discussed. This problem is known to be strongly NP-hard and also hard to approximate in general digraphs. In this paper, the class of acyclic digraphs is considered. It is shown that for the traditional interval uncertainty, the problem can be solved in polynomial time for all natural, known from the literature, neighborhoods. Efficient algorithms for various classes of acyclic digraphs are constructed. Some negative results for general digraphs are strengthened. Finally, some exact and approximate methods of solving the problem under budgeted interval uncertainty are proposed.

In this paper the recoverable robust shortest path problem is investigated. Discrete budgeted interval uncertainty representation is used to model uncertain second-stage arc costs. The known complexity results for this problem are strengthened. It is shown that it is Sigma_3^p-hard for the arc exclusion and the arc symmetric difference neighborhoods. Furthermore, it is also proven that the inner adversarial problem for these neighborhoods is Pi_2^p-hard.
