In some applications of matching, the structural or hierarchical properties of the two graphs being aligned must be maintained. The hierarchical properties are induced by the direction of the edges in the two directed graphs. These…
The study of power domination in graphs arises from the problem of placing a minimum number of measurement devices in an electrical network while monitoring the entire network. A power dominating set of a graph is a set of vertices from…
We prove the following result: If $G$ be a connected graph on $n \ge 6$ vertices, then there exists a set of vertices $D$ with $|D| \le \frac{n}{3}$ and such that $V(G) \setminus N[D]$ is an independent set, where $N[D]$ is the closed…
Many well-known combinatorial optimization problems can be stated over the set of acyclic orientations of an undirected graph. For example, acyclic orientations with certain diameter constraints are closely related to the optimal solutions…
This paper discusses generalized weak rigidity theory, and aims to apply the theory to formation control problems with a gradient flow law. The generalized weak rigidity theory is utilized in order that desired formations are characterized…
We study directed random graphs (random graphs whose edges are directed) as they evolve in discrete time by the addition of nodes and edges. For two distinct evolution strategies, one that forces the graph to a condition of near acyclicity…
This paper considers the degree-diameter problem for undirected circulant graphs. The focus is on extremal graphs of given (small) degree and arbitrary diameter. The published literature only covers graphs of up to degree 7. The approach…
There are various concepts of structure preserving mappings in geometry. It is the aim of the present paper to give a survey on geometrical characterizations of some of those mappings. We discuss the results for projective spaces in some…
We introduce and study analogues of expander and hyperfinite graph sequences in the context of directed acyclic graphs, which we call "extender" and "hypershallow" graph sequences, respectively. Our main result is a probabilistic…
Weak and strong coloring numbers are generalizations of the degeneracy of a graph, where for each natural number $k$, we seek a vertex ordering such every vertex can (weakly respectively strongly) reach in $k$ steps only few vertices with…
In this paper, we classify commutative weakly distance-regular digraphs of valency 3 with girth more than 2 and one type of arcs. Combining [8, Theorem 1.2], [10, Theorem 1.3] and [11, Theorem 1], commutative weakly distanceregular digraphs…
The domination number of a graph $G$, denoted by $\gamma (G)$, is the minimum cardinality of a dominating set of $G$. A vertex of a graph is called critical if its deletion decreases the domination number, and a graph is called critical if…
We discuss variational problems on two-dimensional domains with energy densities of linear growth and with radially symmetric data. The smoothness of generalized minimizers is established under rather weak ellipticity assumptions. Further…
The question if a given partial solution to a problem can be extended reasonably occurs in many algorithmic approaches for optimization problems. For instance, when enumerating minimal dominating sets of a graph $G=(V,E)$, one usually…
Capacitated Domination generalizes the classic Dominating Set problem by specifying for each vertex a required demand and an available capacity for covering demand in its closed neighborhood. The objective is to find a minimum-sized set of…
Simple drawings of graphs are those in which each pair of edges share at most one point, either a common endpoint or a proper crossing. In this paper we study the problem of extending a simple drawing $D(G)$ of a graph $G$ by inserting a…
The partial representation extension problem is a recently introduced generalization of the recognition problem. A circle graph is an intersection graph of chords of a circle. We study the partial representation extension problem for circle…
We study various acyclicity conditions on higher-categorical pasting diagrams in the combinatorial framework of regular directed complexes. We present an apparently weakest acyclicity condition under which the $\omega$-category presented by…
In this paper we study combinatorial and algorithmic resp. complexity questions of upper domination, i.e., the maximum cardinality of a minimal dominating set in a graph. We give a full classification of the related maximisation and…
We study the classical problem of computing geometric thickness, i.e., finding a straight-line drawing of an input graph and a partition of its edges into as few parts as possible so that each part is crossing-free. Since the problem is…
