Tree-decompositions of graphs are of fundamental importance in structural and algorithmic graph theory. The main property of tree-decompositions is the width (the maximum size of a bag minus 1). We show that every graph has a…
Pairwise ordered tree alignment are combinatorial objects that appear in RNA secondary structure comparison. However, the usual representation of tree alignments as supertrees is ambiguous, i.e. two distinct supertrees may induce identical…
This work presents novel algorithms for learning Bayesian network structures with bounded treewidth. Both exact and approximate methods are developed. The exact method combines mixed-integer linear programming formulations for structure…
Any function can be constructed using a hierarchy of simpler functions through compositions. Such a hierarchy can be characterized by a binary rooted tree. Each node of this tree is associated with a function which takes as inputs two…
Answering connectivity queries is fundamental to fully dynamic graphs where edges and vertices are inserted and deleted frequently. Existing work proposes data structures and algorithms with worst-case guarantees. We propose a new data…
Based on the previously proposed concept Understanding Tree, this paper introduces two concepts: Understanding Graph and Understanding Map, and explores their potential applications. Understanding Graph and Understanding Map can be deemed…
A k-tree is either a complete graph on (k+1) vertices or given a k-tree G' with n vertices, a k-tree G with (n+1) vertices can be constructed by introducing a new vertex v and picking a k-clique Q in G' and then joining each vertex u in Q.…
We describe arithmetic computations in terms of operations on some well known free algebras (S1S, S2S and ordered rooted binary trees) while emphasizing the common structure present in all them when seen as isomorphic with the set of…
In this work we obtain basis for the null space of unicyclic graphs. We extend the null decomposition of trees from [11] for unicyclic graphs. As an application, we obtain closed formulas for the independence and matching numbers of…
A graph G is a 2-tree if G=K_3, or G has a vertex v of degree 2, whose neighbours are adjacent, and G\v{i}s a 2-tree. A characterization of the degree sequences of 2-trees is given. This characterization yields a linear-time algorithm for…
To most mathematicians and computer scientists the word ``tree'' conjures up, in addition to the usual image, the image of a connected graph with no circuits. In the last few years various types of trees have been the subject of much…
We introduce top trees as a design of a new simpler interface for data structures maintaining information in a fully-dynamic forest. We demonstrate how easy and versatile they are to use on a host of different applications. For example, we…
This paper studies the structure of graphs with given tree-width and excluding a fixed complete bipartite subgraph, which generalises the bounded degree setting. We give a new structural description of such graphs in terms of so-called…
We give a precise description of combed trees in terms of Kelly-Mac Lane graphs. We show that any combed tree is uniquely expressed as an allowable Kelly-Mac Lane graph of a certain shape. Conversely, we show that any such Kelly-Mac Lane…
In this paper, we define a ternary graph operation which generalizes the construction of subdivision graph, $R-$graph, central graph. Also, it generalizes the construction of overlay graph (Marius Somodi \emph{et al.}, 2017), and…
In this paper, we present a complete characterization of mutual-visibility sets in trees. It is shown that a subset $S$ is a mutual-visibility set of a tree $T$ if and only if it coincides with the set of leaves of the Steiner subtree…
In this paper we present novel algorithmic techniques with a O(H(N)+N/H(N)) time complexity for performing several types of queries and updates on general rooted trees, binary search trees and lists of size N. For rooted trees we introduce…
We study the Laplacian on family preserving metric graphs. These are graphs that have a certain symmetry that, as we show, allows for a decomposition into a direct sum of one-dimensional operators whose properties are explicitly related to…
Understanding the response of an output variable to multi-dimensional inputs lies at the heart of many data exploration endeavours. Topology-based methods, in particular Morse theory and persistent homology, provide a useful framework for…
The comprehensive characterization of the structure of complex networks is essential to understand the dynamical processes which guide their evolution. The discovery of the scale-free distribution and the small world property of real…
