We consider the problem of finding all allowed edges in a bipartite graph $G=(V,E)$, i.e., all edges that are included in some maximum matching. We show that given any maximum matching in the graph, it is possible to perform this…
Testing a graph on 2-vertex- and 2-edge-connectivity are two fundamental algorithmic graph problems. For both problems, different linear-time algorithms with simple implementations are known. Here, an even simpler linear-time algorithm is…
General factors are a generalization of matchings. Given a graph $G$ with a set $\pi(v)$ of feasible degrees, called a degree constraint, for each vertex $v$ of $G$, the general factor problem is to find a (spanning) subgraph $F$ of $G$…

Let $G$ be an $n$-vertex graph with $m$ edges. When asked a subset $S$ of vertices, a cut query on $G$ returns the number of edges of $G$ that have exactly one endpoint in $S$. We show that there is a bounded-error quantum algorithm that…

A $3$-uniform hypergraph is a generalization of simple graphs where each hyperedge is a subset of vertices of size $3$. The degree of a vertex in a hypergraph is the number of hyperedges incident with it. The degree sequence of a hypergraph…
A graph is componentwise biconnected if every connected component either is an isolated vertex or is biconnected. We present a linear-time algorithm for the problem of adding the smallest number of edges to make a bipartite graph…
