In the classical s-t network reliability problem a fixed network G is given including two designated vertices s and t (called terminals). The edges are subject to independent random failure, and the task is to compute the probability that s…
A graph $G$ with $k$ specified target vertices in vertex set is a $k$-terminal graph. The $k$-terminal reliability is the connection probability of the fixed $k$ target vertices in a $k$-terminal graph when every edge of this graph survives…
The present study was concerned with network failure problems for simple connected undirected graphs. A connected graph becomes unconnected through edge failure, under the assumptions that only edges can fail and each edge has an identical…
The classic all-terminal network reliability problem posits a graph, each of whose edges fails independently with some given probability.
A matching is a set of edges in a graph with no common endpoint. A matching M is called acyclic if the induced subgraph on the endpoints of the edges in M is acyclic. Given a graph G and an integer k, Acyclic Matching Problem seeks for an…

Let $G$ be a graph having a vertex $v$ such that $H = G - v$ is a trivially perfect graph. We give a polynomial-time algorithm for the problem of deciding whether it is possible to add at most $k$ edges to $G$ to obtain a trivially perfect…
As engineered systems expand, become more interdependent, and operate in real-time, reliability assessment is indispensable to support investment and decision making. However, network reliability problems are known to be #P-complete, a…
This paper deals with the problem of finding, for a given graph and a given natural number k, a subgraph of k nodes with a maximum number of edges. This problem is known as the k-cluster problem and it is NP-hard on general graphs as well…

The reliability polynomial of a graph gives the probability that a graph remains operational when all its edges could fail independently with a certain fixed probability. In general, the problem of finding uniformly most reliable graphs…
