We study a generalization of the classic Spanning Tree problem that allows for a non-uniform failure model. More precisely, edges are either \emph{safe} or \emph{unsafe} and we assume that failures only affect unsafe edges. In Unweighted…

Constructing a spanning tree of a graph is one of the most basic tasks in graph theory. We consider this problem in the setting of local algorithms: one wants to quickly determine whether a given edge $e$ is in a specific spanning tree,…

We consider undirected simple finite graphs. The sets of vertices and edges of a graph $G$ are denoted by $V(G)$ and $E(G)$, respectively. For a graph $G$, we denote by $\delta(G)$ and $\eta(G)$ the least degree of a vertex of $G$ and the…
Signed networks are graphs whose edges are labelled with either a positive or a negative sign, and can be used to capture nuances in interactions that are missed by their unsigned counterparts. The concept of balance in signed graph theory…
