A disconnected cut of a connected graph is a vertex cut that itself also induces a disconnected subgraph. The decision problem whether a graph has a disconnected cut is called Disconnected Cut. This problem is closely related to several…

A graph $G = (V, E)$ is \emph{partitionable} if there exists a partition $\{A, B\}$ of $V$ such that $A$ induces a disjoint union of cliques and $B$ induces a triangle-free graph. In this paper we investigate the computational complexity of…

We study the problem of recognizing graph powers and computing roots of graphs. We provide a polynomial time recognition algorithm for r-th powers of graphs of girth at least 2r+3, thus improving a bound conjectured by Farzad et al. (STACS…

A complete subgraph of a given graph is called a clique. A clique Polynomial of a graph is a generating function of the number of cliques in $G$. A real root of the clique polynomial of a graph $G$ is called a \emph{clique root} of $G$. \\…

Given a 3-uniform hypergraph H, its 2-intersection graph G has for vertex set the hyperedges of H and ee' is an edge of G whenever e and e' have exactly two common vertices in H. Di Marco et al. prove that deciding wether a graph G is the…

Let G(V,E) be a simple graph and let X subset of V. Two vertices u and v are said to be X-visible if there exists a shortest u,v-path P such that V(P) intersection X is a subset of {u, v}. A set X is called a mutual-visibility set of G if…

For a class $\mathcal{G}$ of graphs, the objective of \textsc{Subgraph Complementation to} $\mathcal{G}$ is to find whether there exists a subset $S$ of vertices of the input graph $G$ such that modifying $G$ by complementing the subgraph…

Block graphs are graphs in which every block (biconnected component) is a clique. A graph $G=(V,E)$ is said to be an (unpartitioned) $k$-probe block graph if there exist $k$ independent sets $N_i\subseteq V$, $1\le i\le k$, such that the…

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…

A graph $G$ has a perfect division if its vertex set can be partitioned into two sets $A$, $B$ such that $G[A]$ is perfect and $\omega(G[B]) < \omega(G)$. We call $G$ perfectly divisible if every induced subgraph of $G$ admits a perfect…

Perfect Matching-Cut is the problem of deciding whether a graph has a perfect matching that contains an edge-cut. We show that this problem is NP-complete for planar graphs with maximum degree four, for planar graphs with girth five, for…

The regular number of a graph G denoted by reg(G) is the minimum number of subsets into which the edge set of G can be partitioned so that the subgraph induced by each subset is regular. In this work we answer to the problem posed as an…

The Subgraph Isomorphism problem asks, given a host graph G on n vertices and a pattern graph P on k vertices, whether G contains a subgraph isomorphic to P. The restriction of this problem to planar graphs has often been considered. After…

A graph $G$ is a circle graph if it is an intersection graph of chords of a unit circle. We give an algorithm that takes as input an $n$ vertex circle graph $G$, runs in time at most $n^{O(\log n)}$ and finds a proper $3$-coloring of $G$,…
