In the classical Node-Disjoint Paths (NDP) problem, the input consists of an undirected $n$-vertex graph $G$, and a collection $\mathcal{M}=\{(s_1,t_1),\ldots,(s_k,t_k)\}$ of pairs of its vertices, called source-destination, or demand,…
We introduce and study the complexity of Path Packing. Given a graph $G$ and a list of paths, the task is to embed the paths edge-disjoint in $G$. This generalizes the well known Hamiltonian-Path problem. Since Hamiltonian Path is…

Getting a labeling of vertices close to the structure of the graph has been proved to be of interest in many applications e.g., to follow smooth signals indexed by the vertices of the network. This question can be related to a graph…

Optical networks with multi-core fibers can replace several electronics networks with a single topology. Each electronic link is replaced by a single fiber, which can save space, weight, and cost, while having better segregation and EMI…
Connectivity (or equivalently, unweighted maximum flow) is an important measure in graph theory and combinatorial optimization. Given a graph $G$ with vertices $s$ and $t$, the connectivity $\lambda(s,t)$ from $s$ to $t$ is defined to be…
The path packing problem is stated finding the maximum number of edge-disjoint paths between predefined pairs of nodes in an undirected multigraph. Such a multigraph together with predefined node pairs is often called a network.
We consider global problems, i.e. problems that take at least diameter time, even when the bandwidth is not restricted. We show that all problems considered admit efficient solutions in low-treewidth graphs. By ``efficient'' we mean that…
