Reconstructing a network of dynamic systems from observational data is an active area of research. Many approaches guarantee a consistent reconstruction under the relatively strong assumption that the network dynamics is governed by…

Given a graph of which the n vertices form a regular two-dimensional grid, and in which each (possibly weighted and/or directed) edge connects a vertex to one of its eight neighbours, the following can be done in O(scan(n)) I/Os, provided M…

Let H be a connected bipartite graph with n nodes and m edges. We give an O(nm) time algorithm to decide whether H is an interval bigraph. The best known algorithm has time complexity O(nm^6(m + n) \log n) and it was developed in 1997 [18].…

An out-branching $B^+_u$ (in-branching $B^-_u$) in a digraph $D$ is a connected spanning subdigraph of $D$ in which every vertex except the vertex $u$, called the root, has in-degree (out-degree) one. It is well-known that there exists a…

Graph transformation is the rule-based modification of graphs, and is a discipline dating back to the 1970s. The declarative nature of graph rewriting rules comes at a cost. In general, to match the left-hand graph of a fixed rule within a…

Kelly's lemma is a basic result on graph reconstruction. It states that given the deck of a graph $G$ on $n$ vertices, and a graph $F$ on fewer than $n$ vertices, we can count the number of subgraphs of $G$ that are isomorphic to $F$.…

We study the problem of reconstructing a hidden graph given access to a distance oracle. We design randomized algorithms for the following problems: reconstruction of a degree bounded graph with query complexity $\tilde{O}(n^{3/2})$;…

We prove that if $G$ is a graph and $r_1, ..., r_k \in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}$ such that $\sum_{i=1}^k r_i \geq \Delta(G) + 2 - k$ then $V(G)$ can be partitioned into sets $V_1, ..., V_k$ such that $\Delta(G[V_i]) \leq r_i$ and $G[V_i]$…

We prove the following 30-year old conjecture of Gy\H{o}ri and Tuza: the edges of every $n$-vertex graph $G$ can be decomposed into complete graphs $C_1,\ldots,C_\ell$ of orders two and three such that $|C_1|+\cdots+|C_\ell|\le…

We study the following game version of the generalized graph Tur\'an problem. For two fixed graphs $F$ and $H$, two players, Constructor and Blocker, alternately claim unclaimed edges of the complete graph $K_n$. Constructor can only claim…

Given access to the vertex set $V$ of a connected graph $G=(V,E)$ and an oracle that given two vertices $u,v\in V$, returns the shortest path distance between $u$ and $v$, how many queries are needed to reconstruct $E$? Firstly, we show…

We study Maker/Breaker games on the edges of the complete graph, as introduced by Chvatal and Erdos. We show that in the (m:b) clique game played on K_{N}, the complete graph on N vertices, Maker can achieve a K_{q} for q = (m/(log_{2}(b +…

We discuss two approaches to a recent question of Loh: must a 3-colored transitive tournament on $N$ vertices have a 1-color-\emph{avoiding} path of vertex-length at least $N^{2/3}$? This question generalizes the Erd\H{o}s--Szekeres theorem…

Sumner's universal tournament conjecture states that every $(2n-2)$-vertex tournament should contain a copy of every $n$-vertex oriented tree. If we know the number of leaves of an oriented tree, or its maximum degree, can we guarantee a…

We extend the study of link-irregular graphs to directed graphs (digraphs), where a digraph is link-irregular if no two vertices have isomorphic directed links. We establish that link-irregular digraphs exist on $n$ vertices if and only if…

A digraph $D$ is $k$-linked if for every $2k$ distinct vertices $ x_1,\ldots , x_k, y_1, \ldots , y_k$ in $D$, there exist $k$ pairwise vertex-disjoint paths $P_1,\ldots, P_k$ such that $P_i$ starts at $x_i$ and ends at $y_i$ for each $i\in…

Network reconstruction consists in retrieving the hidden interaction structure of a system from observations. Many reconstruction algorithms have been proposed, although less research has been devoted to describe their theoretical…

A recent result of Condon, Kim, K\"{u}hn and Osthus implies that for any $r\geq (\frac{1}{2}+o(1))n$, an $n$-vertex almost $r$-regular graph $G$ has an approximate decomposition into any collections of $n$-vertex bounded degree trees. In…

In the present work we consider the problem of a reconstruction of eigenfunctions of the Johnson graph $J(n,w)$. We give necessary and sufficient numerical conditions for a unique reconstruction of an eigenfunction with given eigenvalue by…

In this paper, we revisit the online recoloring problem introduced recently by Azar et al. In online recoloring, there is a fixed set $V$ of $n$ vertices and an initial coloring $c_0: V\rightarrow [k]$ for some $k\in \mathbb{Z}^{>0}$. Under…
