An edge-colored graph is said to be balanced if it has an equal number of edges of each color. Given a graph $G$ whose edges are colored using two colors and a positive integer $k$, the objective in the Edge Balanced Connected Subgraph…
Numerous methods for time-series anomaly detection (TSAD) have emerged in recent years, most of which are unsupervised and assume that only normal samples are available during the training phase, due to the challenge of obtaining abnormal…
Tolerance graphs model interval relations in such a way that intervals can tolerate a certain amount of overlap without being in conflict. In one of the most natural generalizations of tolerance graphs with direct applications in the…
Networks are ubiquitous throughout science and engineering. A number of methods, including some from our own group, have explored how one goes about computing or predicting the dynamics of networks given information about internal models of…
Computing the densest subgraph is a primitive graph operation with critical applications in detecting communities, events, and anomalies in biological, social, Web, and financial networks. In this paper, we study the novel problem of Most…
Let $T(H, G_n)$ be the number of monochromatic copies of a fixed connected graph $H$ in a uniformly random coloring of the vertices of the graph $G_n$. In this paper we give a complete characterization of the limiting distribution of $T(H,…
A graph is said to be {\it total-colored} if all the edges and the vertices of the graph are colored. A total-coloring of a graph is a {\it total monochromatically-connecting coloring} ({\it TMC-coloring}, for short) if any two vertices of…
We study graph coloring problems in the streaming model, where the goal is to process an $n$-vertex graph whose edges arrive in a stream, using a limited space that is smaller than the trivial $O(n^2)$ bound. While prior work has largely…
We consider the task of topology discovery of sparse random graphs using end-to-end random measurements (e.g., delay) between a subset of nodes, referred to as the participants. The rest of the nodes are hidden, and do not provide any…
Given a graph G = (V,E), a vertex subset S is called t-stable (or t-dependent) if the subgraph G[S] induced on S has maximum degree at most t. The t-stability number of G is the maximum order of a t-stable set in G. We investigate the…
The Minimum Dominating Set (MDS) problem is one of the most fundamental and challenging problems in distributed computing. While it is well-known that minimum dominating sets cannot be approximated locally on general graphs, over the last…
Let $G = (V,E)$ be a simple, undirected and connected graph. A connected dominating set $S \subseteq V$ is a secure connected dominating set of $G$, if for each $ u \in V\setminus S$, there exists $v\in S$ such that $(u,v) \in E$ and the…
The Kneser graph $K(n,k)$ is defined for integers $n$ and $k$ with $n \geq 2k$ as the graph whose vertices are all the $k$-subsets of $[n]=\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ where two such sets are adjacent if they are disjoint. The Schrijver graph $S(n,k)$…
The problem of achieving consensus in a network of connected systems arises in many science and engineering applications. In contrast to previous works, we focus on the system reactivity, i.e., the initial amplification of the norm of the…
In a reconfiguration setting, each clique of a graph $G$ is viewed as a set of tokens placed on vertices of $G$ such that no vertex has more than one token and any two tokens are adjacent. Three well-known reconfiguration rules have been…
The \emph{total graph} $T(G)$ of a multigraph $G$ has as its vertices the set of edges and vertices of $G$ and has an edge between two vertices if their corresponding elements are either adjacent or incident in $G$. We show that if $G$ has…
Let $\Lambda(T)$ denote the set of leaves in a tree $T$. One natural problem is to look for a spanning tree $T$ of a given graph $G$ such that $\Lambda(T)$ is as large as possible. This problem is called maximum leaf number, and it is a…
This paper considers the optimal multi-agent persistent monitoring problem defined for a team of agents on a set of nodes (targets) interconnected according to a fixed network topology. The aim is to control this team so as to minimize a…
A widely studied model for influence diffusion in social networks are {\it target sets}. For a graph $G$ and an integer-valued threshold function $\tau$ on its vertex set, a {\it target set} or {\it dynamic monopoly} is a set of vertices of…
We study how the complexity of the graph colouring problems star colouring and restricted star colouring vary with the maximum degree of the graph. Restricted star colouring (in short, rs colouring) is a variant of star colouring. For $k\in…
