We investigate the parameterized complexity of the graph editing problem called Editing to a Graph with a Given Degree Sequence, where the aim is to obtain a graph with a given degree sequence \sigma by at most k vertex or edge deletions…
The Cluster Editing problem seeks a transformation of a given undirected graph into a disjoint union of cliques via a minimum number of edge additions or deletions. A multi-parameterized version of the problem is studied, featuring a number…
Graph modification problems are typically asked as follows: is there a small set of operations that transforms a given graph to have a certain property. The most commonly considered operations include vertex deletion, edge deletion, and…
We consider the Trivially Perfect Editing problem, where one is given an undirected graph $G = (V,E)$ and a parameter $k \in \mathbb{N}$ and seeks to edit (add or delete) at most $k$ edges from $G$ to obtain a trivially perfect graph. The…
Given a bipartite graph $G$, the \textsc{Bicluster Editing} problem asks for the minimum number of edges to insert or delete in $G$ so that every connected component is a bicluster, i.e. a complete bipartite graph. This has several…
In a (parameterized) graph edge modification problem, we are given a graph $G$, an integer $k$ and a (usually well-structured) class of graphs $\mathcal{G}$, and ask whether it is possible to transform $G$ into a graph $G' \in \mathcal{G}$…
The aim of edge editing or modification problems is to change a given graph by adding and deleting of a small number of edges in order to satisfy a certain property. We consider the Edge Editing to a Connected Graph of Given Degrees problem…
In the Cluster Editing problem, sometimes known as (unweighted) Correlation Clustering, we must insert and delete a minimum number of edges to achieve a graph in which every connected component is a clique. Owing to its applications in…
We introduce Quasi-Threshold Mover (QTM), an algorithm to solve the quasi-threshold (also called trivially perfect) graph editing problem with edge insertion and deletion. Given a graph it computes a quasi-threshold graph which is close in…
The NP-complete graph problem Cluster Editing seeks to transform a static graph into a disjoint union of cliques by making the fewest possible edits to the edges. We introduce a natural interpretation of this problem in temporal graphs,…
Graph editing problems offer an interesting perspective on sub- and supergraph identification problems for a large variety of target properties. They have also attracted significant attention in recent years, particularly in the area of…
We give a kernel with $O(k^7)$ vertices for Trivially Perfect Editing, the problem of adding or removing at most $k$ edges in order to make a given graph trivially perfect. This answers in affirmative an open question posed by Nastos and…
We study provably effective and efficient data reduction for a class of NP-hard graph modification problems based on vertex degree properties. We show fixed-parameter tractability for NP-hard graph completion (that is, edge addition) cases…
Quasi-threshold graphs are $\{C_4, P_4\}$-free graphs, i.e., they do not contain any cycle or path of four nodes as an induced subgraph. We study the $\{C_4, P_4\}$-free editing problem, which is the problem of finding a minimum number of…
In this work, we focus on several completion problems for subclasses of chordal graphs: Minimum Fill-In, Interval Completion, Proper Interval Completion, Threshold Completion, and Trivially Perfect Completion. In these problems, the task is…
Editing a graph into a disjoint union of clusters is a standard optimization task in graph-based data clustering. Here, complementing classic work where the clusters shall be cliques, we focus on clusters that shall be 2-clubs, that is,…
For a fixed graph $H$, the $H$-free-editing problem asks whether we can modify a given graph $G$ by adding or deleting at most $k$ edges such that the resulting graph does not contain $H$ as an induced subgraph. The problem is known to be…
We introduce a dynamic version of the NP-hard graph problem Cluster Editing. The essential point here is to take into account dynamically evolving input graphs: Having a cluster graph (that is, a disjoint union of cliques) that represents a…
We introduce a new set of problems based on the Chain Editing problem. In our version of Chain Editing, we are given a set of anonymous participants and a set of undisclosed tasks that every participant attempts. For each participant-task…
We study the network untangling problem introduced by Rozenshtein, Tatti, and Gionis [DMKD 2021], which is a variant of Vertex Cover on temporal graphs -- graphs whose edge set changes over discrete time steps. They introduce two problem…
