The basic (and traditional) crossing number problem is to determine the minimum number of crossings in a topological drawing of an input graph in the plane. We develop a unified framework yielding fixed-parameter tractable (FPT) algorithms…
We study the fixed-parameter tractability of the following fundamental problem: given two directed graphs $\vec H$ and $\vec G$, count the number of copies of $\vec H$ in $\vec G$. The standard setting, where the tractability is well…
Given a graph $G = (V,E)$ and a subset $T \subseteq V$ of terminals, a \emph{Steiner tree} of $G$ is a tree that spans $T$. In the vertex-weighted Steiner tree (VST) problem, each vertex is assigned a non-negative weight, and the goal is to…

In this paper, we study the complexity of the periodic temporal graph realization problem with respect to upper bounds on the fastest path durations among its vertices. This constraint with respect to upper bounds appears naturally in…

In the Continuous Steiner Tree problem (CST), we are given as input a set of points (called terminals) in a metric space and ask for the minimum-cost tree connecting them. Additional points (called Steiner points) from the metric space can…
The goal for the Directed Steiner Tree problem is to find a minimum cost tree in a directed graph G=(V,E) that connects all terminals X to a given root r. It is well known that modulo a logarithmic factor it suffices to consider acyclic…
The maximum modularity of a graph is a parameter widely used to describe the level of clustering or community structure in a network. Determining the maximum modularity of a graph is known to be NP-complete in general, and in practice a…
The Steiner tree problem aims to determine a minimum edge-weighted tree that spans a given set of terminal vertices from a given graph. In the past decade, a considerable number of algorithms have been developed to solve this…
We consider the Shallow-Light Steiner Network problem from a fixed-parameter perspective. Given a graph $G$, a distance bound $L$, and $p$ pairs of vertices $(s_1,t_1),\cdots,(s_p,t_p)$, the objective is to find a minimum-cost subgraph $G'$…
