In a paired threshold graph, each vertex has a weight, and two vertices are adjacent if their weight sum is large enough and their weight difference is small enough. It generalizes threshold graphs and unit interval graphs, both very well…
A simple-triangle graph (also known as a PI graph) is the intersection graph of a family of triangles defined by a point on a horizontal line and an interval on another horizontal line. The recognition problem for simple-triangle graphs was…
The Induced Disjoint Paths problem is to test whether a graph G with k distinct pairs of vertices (s_i,t_i) contains paths P_1,...,P_k such that P_i connects s_i and t_i for i=1,...,k, and P_i and P_j have neither common vertices nor…
We extend our previous algorithm that generates all labeled graphs with a given graphical degree sequence to generate all labeled triangle-free graphs with a given graphical degree sequence. The algorithm uses various pruning techniques to…

We show that there exist efficient algorithms for the triangle packing problem in colored permutation graphs, complete multipartite graphs, distance-hereditary graphs, k-modular permutation graphs and complements of k-partite graphs (when k…
A generalized vertex join of a graph is obtained by joining an arbitrary multiset of its vertices to a new vertex. We present a low-order polynomial time algorithm for finding the chromatic polynomials of generalized vertex joins of trees,…
The $P_2$-packing problem asks for whether a graph contains $k$ vertex-disjoint paths each of length two. We continue the study of its kernelization algorithms, and develop a $5k$-vertex kernel.
The clique-width is a measure of complexity of decomposing graphs into certain tree-like structures. The class of graphs with bounded clique-width contains bounded tree-width graphs. We give a polynomial time graph isomorphism algorithm for…
We prove a characterization of all polynomial-time computable queries on the class of interval graphs by sentences of fixed-point logic with counting. More precisely, it is shown that on the class of unordered interval graphs, any query is…
We consider a problem of dispersing points on disjoint intervals on a line. Given n pairwise disjoint intervals sorted on a line, we want to find a point in each interval such that the minimum pairwise distance of these points is maximized.…
The recently introduced problem of extending partial interval representations asks, for an interval graph with some intervals pre-drawn by the input, whether the partial representation can be extended to a representation of the entire…
We study the problem of finding pairwise vertex-disjoint triangles in the randomly perturbed graph model, which is the union of any $n$-vertex graph $G$ satisfying a given minimum degree condition and the binomial random graph $G(n,p)$. We…
We determine to within a constant factor the threshold for the property that two random k-uniform hypergraphs with edge probability p have an edge-disjoint packing into the same vertex set. More generally, we allow the hypergraphs to have…
In the recent years, several polynomial algorithms of a dynamical nature have been proposed to address the graph isomorphism problem. In this paper we propose a generalization of an approach exposed in cond-mat/0209112 and find that this…
It is known that the problem of deleting at most k vertices to obtain a proper interval graph (Proper Interval Vertex Deletion) is fixed parameter tractable. However, whether the problem admits a polynomial kernel or not was open. Here, we…
The interval graph for a set of intervals on a line consists of one vertex for each interval, and an edge for each intersecting pair of intervals. A probe interval graph is a variant that is motivated by an application to genomics, where…
We consider a planar graph $G$ in which the edges have nonnegative integer lengths such that the length of every cycle of $G$ is even, and three faces are distinguished, called holes in $G$. It is known that there exists a packing of cuts…
In the PATH COVER problem, one asks to cover the vertices of a graph using the smallest possible number of (not necessarily disjoint) paths. While the variant where the paths need to be pairwise vertex-disjoint, which we call PATH…
We develop a polynomial time 3/2-approximation algorithm to solve the vertex cover problem on a class of graphs satisfying a property called ``active edge hypothesis''. The algorithm also guarantees an optimal solution on specially…
