We introduce some polynomial and analytic methods in the classification program for the complexity of planar graph homomorphisms. These methods allow us to handle infinitely many lattice conditions and isolate the new P-time tractable…

As it follows from G\"odel's incompleteness theorems, any consistent formal system of axioms and rules of inference should imply a true unprovable statement. Actually, this fundamental principle can be efficiently applicable in…

We study Clustered Planarity with Linear Saturators, which is the problem of augmenting an $n$-vertex planar graph whose vertices are partitioned into independent sets (called clusters) with paths - one for each cluster - that connect all…

Valiant introduced some 25 years ago an algebraic model of computation along with the complexity classes VP and VNP, which can be viewed as analogues of the classical classes P and NP. They are defined using non-uniform sequences of…

Let $\mathbb C$ be the set of complex numbers, and let $\mathcal P$ be a collection of complex polynomial maps in several variables. Assuming at least one $P\in\mathcal P$ depends on at least two variables, we classify all possibilities for…

The Sparsest Cut is a fundamental optimization problem that has been extensively studied. For planar inputs the problem is in $P$ and can be solved in $\tilde{O}(n^3)$ time if all vertex weights are $1$. Despite a significant amount of…

We call an Ising model tractable when it is possible to compute its partition function value (statistical inference) in polynomial time. The tractability also implies an ability to sample configurations of this model in polynomial time. The…

We define and explore a notion of unique prime factorization for constraint functions, and use this as a new tool to prove a complexity classification for counting weighted Eulerian orientation problems with arrow reversal symmetry (ARS).…

We present an algorithm that takes as input an $n$-vertex planar graph $G$ and a $k$-vertex pattern graph $P$, and computes the number of (induced) copies of $P$ in $G$ in $2^{O(k/\log k)}n^{O(1)}$ time. If $P$ is a matching, independent…
