In this paper we extend counting of traversing Hamiltonian cycles from 2-tiled graphs to generalized tiled graphs. We further show that, for a fixed finite set of tiles, counting traversing Hamiltonian cycles can be done in linear time with…

A \emph{queue layout} of a graph consists of a \emph{linear order} of its vertices and a partition of its edges into \emph{queues}, so that no two independent edges of the same queue are nested. The \emph{queue number} of a graph is the…

Tree-width and path-width are well-known graph parameters. Many NP-hard graph problems allow polynomial-time solutions, when restricted to graphs of bounded tree-width or bounded path-width. In this work, we study the behavior of tree-width…

We introduce and study the complexity of Path Packing. Given a graph $G$ and a list of paths, the task is to embed the paths edge-disjoint in $G$. This generalizes the well known Hamiltonian-Path problem. Since Hamiltonian Path is…

We give a randomized algorithm that samples a nearly uniform Eulerian tour of a directed Eulerian multigraph with $m$ arcs in $\widetilde O(m^{3/2})$ time. The guarantee is worst-case, applies to arbitrary directed Eulerian multigraphs, and…

Euler diagrams are a tool for the graphical representation of set relations. Due to their simple way of visualizing elements in the sets by geometric containment, they are easily readable by an inexperienced reader. Euler diagrams where the…

The BEST theorem, due to de Bruijn, van Aardenne-Ehrenfest, Smith, and Tutte, is a classical tool from graph theory that links the Eulerian trails in a directed graph $G=(V,E)$ with the arborescences in $G$. In particular, one can use the…

In this paper we study three substructures in hypergraphs that generalize the notion of an Euler tour in a graph. A flag-traversing tour of a hypergraph corresponds to an Euler tour of its incidence graph, hence complete characterization of…

The notion of directed treewidth was introduced by Johnson, Robertson, Seymour and Thomas [Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series B, Vol 82, 2001] as a first step towards an algorithmic metatheory for digraphs. They showed that some…

Consider an undirected graph $G = (VG, EG)$ and a set of six \emph{terminals} $T = \set{s_1, s_2, s_3, t_1, t_2, t_3} \subseteq VG$. The goal is to find a collection $\calP$ of three edge-disjoint paths $P_1$, $P_2$, and $P_3$, where $P_i$…

An Eulerian walk (or Eulerian trail) is a walk (resp. trail) that visits every edge of a graph $G$ at least (resp. exactly) once. This notion was first discussed by Leonhard Euler while solving the famous Seven Bridges of K\"{o}nigsberg…
