A weak dominance drawing $\Gamma$ of a DAG $G=(V,E)$, is a $d$-dimensional drawing such that there is a directed path from a vertex $u$ to a vertex $v$ in $G$ if $D(u) <D(v)$ for every dimension $D$ of $\Gamma$. We have a \emph{falsely…
Everywhere-$\delta$-dense graphs are defined as graphs on $n$ vertices in which every vertex has degree at least $\delta n$ for some constant $\delta > 0$. Approximation schemes are vital for handling NP-hard optimization problems, but for…

Analogous to regular string and tree languages, regular languages of directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) are defined in the literature. Although called regular, those DAG-languages are more powerful and, consequently, standard problems have a…
The Graph Pricing problem is among the fundamental problems whose approximability is not well-understood. While there is a simple combinatorial 1/4-approximation algorithm, the best hardness result remains at 1/2 assuming the Unique Games…

For a fixed graph $F$, let $ex_F(G)$ denote the size of the largest $F$-free subgraph of $G$. Computing or estimating $ex_F(G)$ for various pairs $F,G$ is one of the central problems in extremal combinatorics. It is thus natural to ask how…

The pre-train then fine-tune approach has advanced GNNs by enabling general knowledge capture without task-specific labels. However, an objective gap between pre-training and downstream tasks limits its effectiveness. Recent graph prompting…
Funnels are a new natural subclass of DAGs. Intuitively, a DAG is a funnel if every source-sink path can be uniquely identified by one of its arcs. Funnels are an analog to trees for directed graphs that is more restrictive than DAGs but…
Real-world data is often times associated with irregular structures that can analytically be represented as graphs. Having access to this graph, which is sometimes trivially evident from domain knowledge, provides a better representation of…
Learning a faithful directed acyclic graph (DAG) from samples of a joint distribution is a challenging combinatorial problem, owing to the intractable search space superexponential in the number of graph nodes. A recent breakthrough…
In this paper we study a new product of graphs called {\em tight product}. A graph $H$ is said to be a tight product of two (undirected multi) graphs $G_1$ and $G_2$, if $V(H)=V(G_1)\times V(G_2)$ and both projection maps $V(H)\to V(G_1)$…

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,…
