We study the problem of discrete geometric packing. Here, given weighted regions (say in the plane) and points (with capacities), one has to pick a maximum weight subset of the regions such that no point is covered more than its capacity.…

We investigate the community detection problem on graphs in the existence of multiple edge types. Our main motivation is that similarity between objects can be defined by many different metrics and aggregation of these metrics into a single…
Suppose the edges of $K_n$ are assigned weights by a weight function $w$. We define the {\em weighted extremal number} \[ \mathrm{ex}(n,w,F):=\max\{w(G)\mid G\subseteq K_n,\text{ and }G\text{ is }F\text{-free}\} \] where $w(G):=\sum_{e\in…
Let $G$ be a connected edge-weighted graph of order $n$ and size $m$. Let $w:E(G)\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^{\geq 0}$ be the weighting function. We assume that $w$ is normalised, that is, $\sum_{e\in E(G)} w(e)=m$. The weighted distance…
Graph isomorphism is an important problem as its worst-case time complexity is not yet fully understood. In this study, we try to draw parallels between a related optimization problem called point set registration. A graph can be…
In this paper, we study the task of detecting the edge dependency between two weighted random graphs. We formulate this task as a simple hypothesis testing problem, where under the null hypothesis, the two observed graphs are statistically…
Let $F_G(P)$ be a functional defined on the set of all the probability distributions on the vertex set of a graph $G$. We say that $G$ is \emph{symmetric with respect to $F_G(P)$} if the uniform distribution on $V(G)$ maximizes $F_G(P)$.…
A total weighting of a graph $G$ is a mapping $f$ which assigns to each element $z \in V(G) \cup E(G)$ a real number $f(z)$ as its weight. The vertex sum of $v$ with respect to $f$ is $\phi_f(v)=\sum_{e \in E(v)}f(e)+f(v)$. A total…
We present an efficient algorithm for a problem in the interface between clustering and graph embeddings. An embedding $\varphi:G\rightarrow M$ of a graph $G$ into a 2-manifold $M$ maps the vertices in $V(G)$ to distinct points and the…
In this paper, we consider the weighted graph matching problem with partially disclosed correspondences between a number of anchor nodes. Our construction exploits recently introduced node signatures based on graph Laplacians, namely the…
A multipacking in an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ is a set $M\subseteq V$ such that for every vertex $v\in V$ and for every integer $r\geq 1$, the ball of radius $r$ around $v$ contains at most $r$ vertices of $M$, that is, there are at most…

A prototypical graph problem is centered around a graph-theoretic property for a set of vertices and a solution to it is a set of vertices for which the desired property holds. The task is to decide whether, in the given graph, there exists…
