It is $\mathsf{NP}$-hard to determine the minimum number of branching vertices needed in a single-source distance-preserving subgraph of an undirected graph. We show that this problem can be solved in polynomial time if the input graph is…

We consider a task graph to be executed on a set of processors. We assume that the mapping is given, say by an ordered list of tasks to execute on each processor, and we aim at optimizing the energy consumption while enforcing a prescribed…

The Directed Feedback Vertex Set problem (DFVS) asks whether it is possible to remove at most $k$ vertices from a directed graph to make it acyclic. Whether DFVS is fixed-parameter tractable was a long-standing open problem in parameterized…

We study a new algorithmic process of graph growth which starts from a single initial vertex and operates in discrete time-steps, called \emph{slots}. In every slot, the graph grows via two operations (i) vertex generation and (ii) edge…

The node-averaged complexity of a distributed algorithm running on a graph $G=(V,E)$ is the average over the times at which the nodes $V$ of $G$ finish their computation and commit to their outputs. We study the node-averaged complexity for…

In edge orientations, the goal is usually to orient (direct) the edges of an undirected $n$-vertex graph $G$ such that all out-degrees are bounded. When the graph $G$ is fully dynamic, i.e., admits edge insertions and deletions, we wish to…

In graph theory, the longest path problem is the problem of finding a simple path of maximum length in a given graph. For some small classes of graphs, the problem can be solved in polynomial time [2, 4], but it remains NP-hard on general…

Let F be a fixed finite obstruction set of graphs and G be a graph revealed in an online fashion, node by node. The online Delayed F-Node-Deletion Problem (F-Edge-Deletion Problem}) is to keep G free of every H in F by deleting nodes…

We study reachability and shortest paths problems in dynamic directed graphs. Whereas algebraic dynamic data structures supporting edge updates and reachability/distance queries have been known for quite a long time, they do not, in…

Given a graph, the sparsest cut problem asks for a subset of vertices whose edge expansion (the normalized cut given by the subset) is minimized. In this paper, we study a generalization of this problem seeking for $ k $ disjoint subsets of…

We consider the problem of finding an edge in a hidden undirected graph $G = (V, E)$ with $n$ vertices, in a model where we only allowed queries that ask whether or not a subset of vertices contains an edge. We study the non-adaptive model…

We improve the best known upper bound on the number of edges in a unit-distance graph on $n$ vertices for each $n\in\{16,\ldots,30\}$. When $n\leq 21$, our bounds match the best known lower bounds, and we fully enumerate the densest…
