The L-intersection graphs are the graphs that have a representation as intersection graphs of axis parallel shapes in the plane. A subfamily of these graphs are {L, |, --}-contact graphs which are the contact graphs of axis parallel L, |,…
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.
An interesting class of orthogonal representations consists of the so-called turn-regular ones, i.e., those that do not contain any pair of reflex corners that "point to each other" inside a face. For such a representation H it is possible…
We have studied the contact network properties of two and three dimensional polydisperse, frictionless sphere packings at the random closed packing density through simulations. We observe universal correlations between particle size and…
The paper is devoted to studying the orthogonality graph of the matrix ring over a commutative ring. It is proved that the orthogonality graph of the ring of matrices with size greater than 1 over a commutative ring with zero-divisors is…
A geometric graph is a graph whose vertex set is a set of points in the plane and whose edge set contains straight-line segments. A matching in a graph is a subset of edges of the graph with no shared vertices. A matching is called perfect…
Motivated by a problem in graph theory, this article introduces an algebra called the balanced algebra. This algebra is defined by generators and relations, and the main goal is to find a minimal set of relations for it.
A vertex subset M of a graph G is a multipacking if for each vertex v, and each positive integer s less than or equal to the diameter of G, v is within distance s of at most s vertices of M. The multipacking number of a graph is the maximum…
The fractional list packing number $\chi_{\ell}^{\bullet}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is a graph invariant that has recently arisen from the study of disjoint list-colourings. It measures how large the lists of a list-assignment $L:V(G)\rightarrow…
Higher-dimensional orthogonal packing problems have a wide range of practical applications, including packing, cutting, and scheduling. Previous efforts for exact algorithms have been unable to avoid structural problems that appear for…
The boxicity of a graph is the smallest dimension $d$ allowing a representation of it as the intersection graph of a set of $d$-dimensional axis-parallel boxes. We present a simple general approach to determining the boxicity of a graph…
Given two point sets in the plane, we study the minimization of the bottleneck distance between a point set B and an equally-sized subset of a point set A under translations. We relate this problem to a Voronoi-type diagram and derive…
Multicriteria Decision Making problems are important both for individuals and groups. Pairwise comparisons have become popular in the theory and practice of preference modelling and quantification. We focus on decision problems where the…
Correspondence is a ubiquitous problem in computer vision and graph matching has been a natural way to formalize correspondence as an optimization problem. Recently, graph matching solvers have included higher-order terms representing…
Let $\ell$ denote a positive integer. A connected graph $\G$ of diameter at least $\ell$ is said to be $\ell${\it -distance-balanced} whenever for any pair of vertices $u,v$ of $\G$ such that $d(u,v)=\ell$, the number of vertices closer to…
The core of this note is the observation that links between circle packings of graphs and potential theory developed in \cite{BeSc01} and \cite{HS} can be extended to higher dimensions. In particular, it is shown that every limit of finite…
This note is on the structures of line graphs and 2-variegated graphs. We have given here solutions of some graph equations involving line graphs and 2-variegated graphs.
This paper is devoted to the study of particular geometrically defined intersection classes of graphs. Those were previously studied by Magnant and Martin, who proved that these graphs have arbitrary large chromatic number, while being…
We show that deciding whether a given set of circles can be packed into a rectangle, an equilateral triangle, or a unit square are NP-hard problems, settling the complexity of these natural packing problems. On the positive side, we show…
A geometric inequality among three triangles, originating in circle packing problems, is introduced. In order to prove it, we reduce the original formulation to the nonnegativity of a particular polynomial in four real indeterminates.…
