We consider the optimisation problem of adding $k$ links to a given network, such that the resulting effective graph resistance is as small as possible. The problem was recently proven to be NP-hard, such that optimal solutions obtained…

Current modularity-based community detection algorithms attempt to find cluster memberships that maximize modularity within a fixed graph topology. Diverging from this conventional approach, our work introduces a novel strategy that employs…
We investigate polynomial-time preprocessing for the problem of hitting forbidden minors in a graph, using the framework of kernelization. For a fixed finite set of connected graphs F, the F-Deletion problem is the following: given a graph…

The focus of this paper is two fold. Firstly, we present a logical approach to graph modification problems such as minimum node deletion, edge deletion, edge augmentation problems by expressing them as an expression in first order (FO)…
Communities are clusters of nodes with a higher than average density of internal connections. Their detection is of great relevance to better understand the structure and hierarchies present in a network. Modularity has become a standard…
Temporal graphs provide a useful model for many real-world networks. Unfortunately the majority of algorithmic problems we might consider on such graphs are intractable. There has been recent progress in defining structural parameters which…
This work is motivated by the necessity to automate the discovery of structure in vast and evergrowing collection of relational data commonly represented as graphs, for example genomic networks. A novel algorithm, dubbed Graphitour, for…
Given a Counting Monadic Second Order (CMSO) sentence $\psi$, the CMSO$[\psi]$ problem is defined as follows. The input to CMSO$[\psi]$ is a graph $G$, and the objective is to determine whether $G\models \psi$. Our main theorem states that…
For a graph class ${\cal H}$, the graph parameters elimination distance to ${\cal H}$ (denoted by ${\bf ed}_{\cal H}$) [Bulian and Dawar, Algorithmica, 2016], and ${\cal H}$-treewidth (denoted by ${\bf tw}_{\cal H}$) [Eiben et al. JCSS,…
This paper investigates the relations between modular graph forms, which are generalizations of the modular graph functions that were introduced in earlier papers motivated by the structure of the low energy expansion of genus-one Type II…
The C-Planarity problem asks for a drawing of a $\textit{clustered graph}$, i.e., a graph whose vertices belong to properly nested clusters, in which each cluster is represented by a simple closed region with no edge-edge crossings, no…
A graph is well-covered if all its maximal independent sets have the same cardinality. This well studied concept was introduced by Plummer in 1970 and naturally generalizes to the weighted case. Given a graph $G$, a real-valued vertex…
A graph $G$ covers a graph $H$ if there exists a locally bijective homomorphism from $G$ to $H$. We deal with regular covers where this homomorphism is prescribed by the action of a semiregular subgroup of $\textrm{Aut}(G)$. We study…
We study a general class of problems called F-deletion problems. In an F-deletion problem, we are asked whether a subset of at most $k$ vertices can be deleted from a graph $G$ such that the resulting graph does not contain as a minor any…
