Everywhere-$\delta$-dense graphs are defined as graphs on $n$ vertices in which every vertex has degree at least $\delta n$ for some constant $\delta > 0$. Approximation schemes are vital for handling NP-hard optimization problems, but for…

In the Minimum Bisection problem, input is a graph $G$ and the goal is to partition the vertex set into two parts $A$ and $B$, such that $||A|-|B|| \le 1$ and the number $k$ of edges between $A$ and $B$ is minimized. This problem can be…

A string is closed if it has length 1 or has a nonempty border without internal occurrences. In this paper we introduce the definition of a \emph{maximal closed substring} (MCS), which is an occurrence of a closed substring that cannot be…
For an integer $b\ge 0$, a $b$-matching in a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a set $S\subseteq E$ such that each vertex $v\in V$ is incident to at most $b$ edges in $S$. We design a fully polynomial-time approximation scheme (FPTAS) for counting the…
