A range family $\mathcal{R}$ is a family of subsets of $\mathbb{R}^d$, like all halfplanes, or all unit disks. Given a range family $\mathcal{R}$, we consider the $m$-uniform range capturing hypergraphs $\mathcal{H}(V,\mathcal{R},m)$ whose…

A perfect matching in a hypergraph is a set of edges that partition the set of vertices. We study the complexity of deciding the existence of a perfect matching in orderable and separable hypergraphs. We show that the class of orderable…

We consider problems about packing and counting Hamilton $\ell$-cycles in hypergraphs of large minimum degree. Given a hypergraph $\mathcal H$, for a $d$-subset $A\subseteq V(\mathcal H)$, we denote by $d_{\mathcal H}(A)$ the number of…

The $r$-color size-Ramsey number of a $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$, denoted by $\hat{R}_r(H)$, is the minimum number of edges in a $k$-uniform hypergraph $G$ such that for every $r$-coloring of the edges of $G$ there exists a monochromatic…

We study graph partitioning problems from a min-max perspective, in which an input graph on n vertices should be partitioned into k parts, and the objective is to minimize the maximum number of edges leaving a single part. The two main…

In this work, we address the problem of approximating the $k$-disc distribution ("frequency vector") of a bounded-degree graph in sublinear-time under the assumption of hyperfiniteness. We revisit the partition-oracle framework of Hassidim,…

For any positive integers $k,r,n$ with $r \leq \min\{k,n\}$, let $\mathcal{P}_{k,r,n}$ be the family of all sets $\{(x_1,y_1), \dots, (x_r,y_r)\}$ such that $x_1, \dots, x_r$ are distinct elements of $[k] = \{1, \dots, k\}$ and $y_1, \dots,…

The starting point of our work is a decade-old open question concerning the subexponential parameterized complexity of \textsc{2-Layer Crossing Minimization}. In this problem, the input is an $n$-vertex graph $G$ whose vertices are…

Given a graph $G = (V,E)$, a set $T$ of vertex pairs, and an integer $k$, Hitting Geodesic Intervals asks whether there is a set $S \subseteq V$ of size at most $k$ such that for each terminal pair $\{u,v\} \in T$, the set $S$ intersects at…

Alternative novel measures of the distance between any two partitions of a n-set are proposed and compared, together with a main existing one, namely 'partition-distance' D(.,.). The comparison achieves by checking their restriction to…

{\em Partial domination problem} is a generalization of the {\em minimum dominating set problem} on graphs. Here, instead of dominating all the nodes, one asks to dominate at least a fraction of the nodes of the given graph by choosing a…

We define and study a special type of hypergraph. A $\sigma$-hypergraph $H= H(n,r,q$ $\mid$ $\sigma$), where $\sigma$ is a partition of $r$, is an $r$-uniform hypergraph having $nq$ vertices partitioned into $ n$ classes of $q$ vertices…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of subsets of a ground set $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ with $|\mathcal{F}|=m$, and let $\mathcal{F}^{\updownarrow}$ denote the family of all subsets of $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ that are subsets or supersets of sets in…

Two elements $g$ and $h$ of a permutation group $G$ acting on a set $V$ are said to be intersecting if $g(v) = h(v)$ for some $v \in V$. More generally, a subset ${\cal F}$ of $G$ is an intersecting set if every pair of elements of ${\cal…

We investigate decompositions of a graph into a small number of low diameter subgraphs. Let P(n,\epsilon,d) be the smallest k such that every graph G=(V,E) on n vertices has an edge partition E=E_0 \cup E_1 \cup ... \cup E_k such that |E_0|…

A graph G is r-Ramsey for a graph H, denoted by G\rightarrow (H)_r, if every r-colouring of the edges of G contains a monochromatic copy of H. The graph G is called r-Ramsey-minimal for H if it is r-Ramsey for H but no proper subgraph of G…

Let $H=(V,E)$ be a hypergraph, where $V$ is a set of vertices and $E$ is a set of non-empty subsets of $V$ called edges. If all edges of $H$ have the same cardinality $r$, then $H$ is a $r$-uniform hypergraph; if $E$ consists of all…

It is well known that, whenever $k$ divides $n$, the complete $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices can be partitioned into disjoint perfect matchings. Equivalently, the set of $k$-subsets of an $n$-set can be partitioned into parallel…

Cut problems form one of the most fundamental classes of problems in algorithmic graph theory. For instance, the minimum cut, the minimum $s$-$t$ cut, the minimum multiway cut, and the minimum $k$-way cut are some of the commonly…

Two subsets $A,B$ of an $n$-element ground set $X$ are said to be \emph{crossing}, if none of the four sets $A\cap B$, $A\setminus B$, $B\setminus A$ and $X\setminus(A\cup B)$ are empty. It was conjectured by Karzanov and Lomonosov forty…
