In a graph $G=(V,E)$, a bisection $(X,Y)$ is a partition of $V$ into sets $X$ and $Y$ such that $|X|\le |Y|\le |X|+1$. The size of $(X,Y)$ is the number of edges between $X$ and $Y$. In the Max Bisection problem we are given a graph…
We examine the Maximum Independent Set Problem in an undirected graph. The main result is that this problem can be considered as the solving the same problem in a subclass of the weighted normal twin-orthogonal graphs. The problem is…
In this paper, we show that given a weighted, directed planar graph $G$, and any $\epsilon >0$, there exists a polynomial time and $O(n^{\frac{1}{2}+\epsilon})$ space algorithm that computes the shortest path between two fixed vertices in…
A cocomparability graph is a graph whose complement admits a transitive orientation. An interval graph is the intersection graph of a family of intervals on the real line. In this paper we investigate the relationships between interval and…
For the set of graphs with a given degree sequence, consisting of any number of $2's$ and $1's$, and its subset of bipartite graphs, we characterize the optimal graphs who maximize and minimize the number of $m$-matchings. We find the…
We provide faster strongly polynomial time algorithms solving maximum flow in structured $n$-node $m$-arc networks. Our results imply an $n^{\omega + o(1)}$-time strongly polynomial time algorithms for computing a maximum bipartite…
The domination problem and its variants represent a classical domain within algorithmic graph theory. Among these variants, the paired-domination problem holds particular prominence due to its real-world implications in security and…
An intersection digraph is a digraph where every vertex $v$ is represented by an ordered pair $(S_v, T_v)$ of sets such that there is an edge from $v$ to $w$ if and only if $S_v$ and $T_w$ intersect. An intersection digraph is reflexive if…
A maximal $\varepsilon$-near perfect matching is a maximal matching which covers at least $(1-\varepsilon)|V(G)|$ vertices. In this paper, we study the number of maximal near perfect matchings in generalized quasirandom and dense graphs. We…
We give two lower bounds on the largest order of an arc-transitive graph of diameter two and a given degree.
The maximum clique problem is a classical NP-complete problem in graph theory and has important applications in many domains. In this paper we show, in a partially non-constructive way, the existence of an exact polynomial-time algorithm…
We consider the maximum weight $b$-matching problem in the random-order semi-streaming model. Assuming all weights are small integers drawn from $[1,W]$, we present a $2 - \frac{1}{2W} + \varepsilon$ approximation algorithm, using a memory…
Given a dynamic network, where edges appear and disappear over time, we are interested in finding sets of edges that have similar temporal behavior and form a dense subgraph. Formally, we define the problem as the enumeration of the maximal…
We present a fully dynamic algorithm for maintaining approximate maximum weight matching in general weighted graphs. The algorithm maintains a matching ${\cal M}$ whose weight is at least $1/8 M^{*}$ where $M^{*}$ is the weight of the…
In this paper we introduce a general framework for casting fully dynamic transitive closure into the problem of reevaluating polynomials over matrices. With this technique, we improve the best known bounds for fully dynamic transitive…
We study a natural process for allocating m balls into n bins that are organized as the vertices of an undirected graph G. Balls arrive one at a time. When a ball arrives, it first chooses a vertex u in G uniformly at random. Then the ball…
The maximum/minimum bisection problems are, given an edge-weighted graph, to find a bipartition of the vertex set into two sets whose sizes differ by at most one, such that the total weight of edges between the two sets is…
A tanglegram $\cal T$ consists of two rooted binary trees with the same number of leaves, and a perfect matching between the two leaf sets. In a layout, the tanglegrams is drawn with the leaves on two parallel lines, the trees on either…
This paper considers an optimization problem for a dynamical system whose evolution depends on a collection of binary decision variables. We develop scalable approximation algorithms with provable suboptimality bounds to provide…
We consider the problem of finding a maximum size triangle-free $2$-matching in a graph $G=(V,E)$. A (simple) $2$-matching is any subset of the edges such that each vertex is incident to at most two edges from the subset. The first…
