The family of Weisfeiler-Leman equivalences on graphs is a widely studied approximation of graph isomorphism with many different characterizations. We study these, and other approximations of isomorphism defined in terms of refinement…
Our starting point is the observation that if graphs in a class C have low descriptive complexity in first order logic, then the isomorphism problem for C is solvable by a fast parallel algorithm (essentially, by a simple combinatorial…

DP-coloring is a generalization of list coloring that was introduced in 2015 by Dvo\v{r}\'{a}k and Postle. The chromatic polynomial of a graph $G$, denoted $P(G,m)$, is equal to the number of proper $m$-colorings of $G$. A well-known tool…
DP-coloring (also called correspondence coloring) is a generalization of list coloring that has been widely studied in recent years after its introduction by Dvo\v{r}\'{a}k and Postle in 2015. As the analogue of the chromatic polynomial…
It is known that a graph isomorphism testing algorithm is polynomially equivalent to a detecting of a graph non-trivial automorphism algorithm. The polynomiality of the latter algorithm, is obtained by consideration of symmetry properties…
In this paper we introduce the notion of $\Sigma$-colouring of a graph $G$: For given subsets $\Sigma(v)$ of neighbours of $v$, for every $v\in V(G)$, this is a proper colouring of the vertices of $G$ such that, in addition, vertices that…
The goal in {\em reconfiguration problems} is to compute a {\em gradual transformation} between two feasible solutions of a problem such that all intermediate solutions are also feasible. In the {\em Matching Reconfiguration Problem} (MRP),…
In this paper, we study the parallel and the space complexity of the graph isomorphism problem (\GI{}) for several parameterizations. Let $\mathcal{H}=\{H_1,H_2,\cdots,H_l\}$ be a finite set of graphs where $|V(H_i)|\leq d$ for all $i$ and…
We introduce a relaxation for homomorphism problems that combines semidefinite programming with linear Diophantine equations, and propose a framework for the analysis of its power based on the spectral theory of association schemes. We use…
We study the behavior of the Douglas-Rachford algorithm on the graph vertex-coloring problem. Given a graph and a number of colors, the goal is to find a coloring of the vertices so that all adjacent vertex pairs have different colors. In…
This paper presents a graph signal processing algorithm to uncover the intrinsic low-rank components and the underlying graph of a high-dimensional, graph-smooth and grossly-corrupted dataset. In our problem formulation, we assume that the…
We solve the subgraph isomorphism problem in planar graphs in linear time, for any pattern of constant size. Our results are based on a technique of partitioning the planar graph into pieces of small tree-width, and applying dynamic…
Graph colouring is a fundamental problem for networks, serving as a tool for avoiding conflicts via symmetry breaking, for example, avoiding multiple computer processes simultaneously updating the same resource. This paper considers a…
We study a variation of the graph colouring problem on random graphs of finite average connectivity. Given the number of colours, we aim to maximise the number of different colours at neighbouring vertices (i.e. one edge distance) of any…
Any graph with maximum degree $\Delta$ admits a proper vertex coloring with $\Delta + 1$ colors that can be found via a simple sequential greedy algorithm in linear time and space. But can one find such a coloring via a sublinear algorithm?…
In the past decades for more and more graph classes the Graph Isomorphism Problem was shown to be solvable in polynomial time. An interesting family of graph classes arises from intersection graphs of geometric objects. In this work we show…

Graph coloring is fundamental to distributed computing. We give the first sub-logarithmic distributed algorithm for coloring cluster graphs. These graphs are obtained from the underlying communication network by contracting nodes and edges,…
Graph partitioning is the problem of dividing the nodes of a graph into balanced partitions while minimizing the edge cut across the partitions. Due to its combinatorial nature, many approximate solutions have been developed, including…
