{\em Algorithms with predictions} incorporate machine learning predictions into algorithm design. A plethora of recent works incorporated predictions to improve on worst-case optimal bounds for online problems. In this paper, we initiate…
Modularity is a very widely used measure of the level of clustering or community structure in networks. Here we consider a recent generalisation of the definition of modularity to temporal graphs, whose edge-sets change over discrete…
In this work, we investigate the analysis of generators for dynamic graphs, which are defined as graphs whose topology changes over time. We introduce a novel concept, called ''sustainability,'' to qualify the long-term evolution of dynamic…
Graphs naturally appear in several real-world contexts including social networks, the web network, and telecommunication networks. While the analysis and the understanding of graph structures have been a central area of study in algorithm…
The Pathwidth Theorem states that if a class of graphs has unbounded pathwidth, then it contains all trees as graph minors. We prove a similar result for dense graphs. More precisely, we give a finite family of tree-like patterns and prove…
We give an analog of the Myhill-Nerode methods from formal language theory for hypergraphs and use it to derive the following results for two NP-hard hypergraph problems: * We provide an algorithm for testing whether a hypergraph has…
We provide a well-posedness theory for a class of nonlocal continuity equations on co-evolving graphs. We describe the connection among vertices through an edge weight function and we let it evolve in time, coupling its dynamics with the…
Treewidth is a parameter that measures how tree-like a relational instance is, and whether it can reasonably be decomposed into a tree. Many computation tasks are known to be tractable on databases of small treewidth, but computing the…
In this work, we introduce TreeWidzard, an engine for developing dynamic programming algorithms that decide graph-theoretic properties parameterized by treewidth and pathwidth. Besides providing a unified framework for algorithms deciding…
Starting from the working hypothesis that both physics and the corresponding mathematics have to be described by means of discrete concepts on the Planck-scale, one of the many problems one has to face in this enterprise is to find the…
Graphs are widely used for modeling various types of interactions, such as email communications and online discussions. Many of such real-world graphs are temporal, and specifically, they grow over time with new nodes and edges. Counting…
Temporal graphs provide a useful model for many real-world networks. Unfortunately the majority of algorithmic problems we might consider on such graphs are intractable. There has been recent progress in defining structural parameters which…
Treewidth is a graph parameter of fundamental importance to algorithmic and structural graph theory. This paper surveys several graph parameters tied to treewidth, including separation number, tangle number, well-linked number and Cartesian…
We give a self-contained introduction to the theory of directed graphs, leading up to the relationship between the Perron-Frobenius eigenvectors of a graph and its autocatalytic sets. Then we discuss a particular dynamical system on a fixed…
Courcelle's celebrated theorem states that all MSO-expressible properties can be decided in linear time on graphs of bounded treewidth. Unfortunately, the hidden constant implied by this theorem is a tower of exponentials whose height…
One of the most famous algorithmic meta-theorems states that every graph property that can be defined by a sentence in counting monadic second order logic (CMSOL) can be checked in linear time for graphs of bounded treewidth, which is known…
Twin-width is a structural width parameter introduced by Bonnet, Kim, Thomass\'e and Watrigant [FOCS 2020]. Very briefly, its essence is a gradual reduction (a contraction sequence) of the given graph down to a single vertex while…
We introduce the graph theoretical parameter of edge treewidth. This parameter occurs in a natural way as the tree-like analogue of cutwidth or, alternatively, as an edge-analogue of treewidth. We study the combinatorial properties of…
The recent increase of interest in the graph invariant called tree-depth and in its applications in algorithms and logic on graphs led to a natural question: is there an analogously useful "depth" notion also for dense graphs (say; one…
We consider the problem of finding a subgraph of a given graph which minimizes the sum of given functions at vertices evaluated at their subgraph degrees. While the problem is NP-hard already when all functions are the same, we show that it…
