We study the problem of embedding a guest graph with minimum edge-congestion into a multidimensional grid with the same size as that of the guest graph. Based on a well-known notion of graph separators, we show that an embedding with a…

Many graph processing algorithms require determination of shortest-path distances between arbitrary numbers of node pairs. Since computation of exact distances between all node-pairs of a large graph, e.g., 10M nodes and up, is…

The celebrated Erd\H{o}s-P\'osa theorem states that every undirected graph that does not admit a family of $k$ vertex-disjoint cycles contains a feedback vertex set (a set of vertices hitting all cycles in the graph) of size $O(k \log k)$.…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be an undirected unweighted multi-graph and $S\subseteq V$ be a subset of vertices. A set of edges with the least cardinality whose removal disconnects $S$, that is, there is no path between at least one pair of vertices from…

A long-standing conjecture of Thomassen says that every longest cycle of a $3$-connected graph has a chord. Thomassen (2018) proved that if $G$ is $2$-connected and cubic, then any longest cycle must have a chord. He also showed that if $G$…

We improve the best known lower bounds on the exponential behavior of the maximum of the number of connected sets, $N(G)$, and dominating connected sets, $N_{dom}(G)$, for regular graphs. These lower bounds are improved by constructing a…

We consider intrinsic linking and knotting in the context of directed graphs. We construct an example of a directed graph that contains a consistently oriented knotted cycle in every embedding. We also construct examples of intrinsically…

The fourth listed author and Hans Parshall (\cite{IosevichParshall}) proved that if $E \subset {\mathbb F}_q^d$, $d \ge 2$, and $G$ is a connected graph on $k+1$ vertices such that the largest degree of any vertex is $m$, then if $|E| \ge C…

In this report we show that in a planar exponentially growing network consisting of $N$ nodes, congestion scales as $O(N^2/\log(N))$ independently of how flows may be routed. This is in contrast to the $O(N^{3/2})$ scaling of congestion in…

In the past decade, geometric network models have received vast attention in the literature. These models formalize the natural idea that similar vertices are likely to connect. Because of that, these models are able to adequately capture…

Given a graph $G = (V, E)$ with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, the DominatingSet problem asks for a set $D \subseteq V$ of minimal cardinality such that every vertex either is in $D$ or adjacent to a member of $D$. Although there is little…

Real-world networks, like social networks or the internet infrastructure, have structural properties such as large clustering coefficients that can best be described in terms of an underlying geometry. This is why the focus of the…

The inducibility of a graph $H$ measures the maximum number of induced copies of $H$ a large graph $G$ can have. Generalizing this notion, we study how many induced subgraphs of fixed order $k$ and size $\ell$ a large graph $G$ on $n$…

We show that a relatively hyperbolic graph with uniformly hyperbolic peripheral subgraphs is hyperbolic. As an application, we show that the disc graph and the electrified disc graph of a handlebody H of genus g>1 are hyperbolic, and we…

We show that complex (scale-free) network topologies naturally emerge from hyperbolic metric spaces. Hyperbolic geometry facilitates maximally efficient greedy forwarding in these networks. Greedy forwarding is topology-oblivious.…

We study the problem of deterministic approximate counting of matchings and independent sets in graphs of bounded connective constant. More generally, we consider the problem of evaluating the partition functions of the monomer-dimer model…

Vertex connectivity and its variants are among the most fundamental problems in graph theory, with decades of extensive study and numerous algorithmic advances. The directed variants of vertex connectivity are usually solved by manually…

In 2010, Mkrtchyan, Petrosyan and Vardanyan proved that every graph $G$ with $2\leq \delta(G)\leq \Delta(G)\leq 3$ contains a maximum matching whose unsaturated vertices do not have a common neighbor, where $\Delta(G)$ and $\delta(G)$…

Finding dense subgraphs of a large network is a fundamental problem in graph mining that has been studied extensively both for its theoretical richness and its many practical applications over the last five decades. However, most existing…

We prove estimates for the optimal volume of thick embeddings of finite graphs into symmetric spaces, generalising results of Kolmogorov-Barzdin and Gromov-Guth for embeddings into Euclidean spaces. We distinguish two very different…
