Cut vertices are often used as a measure of nodes' importance within a network. They are those nodes whose failure disconnects a graph. Let N(G) be the number of connected induced subgraphs of a graph $G$. In this work, we investigate the…

The problem of computing all maximal induced subgraphs of a graph G that have a graph property P, also called the maximal P-subgraphs problem, is considered. This problem is studied for hereditary, connected-hereditary and rooted-hereditary…

We prove essentially tight lower bounds, conditionally to the Exponential Time Hypothesis, for two fundamental but seemingly very different cutting problems on surface-embedded graphs: the Shortest Cut Graph problem and the Multiway Cut…

Lettericity is a graph parameter responsible for many attractive structural properties. In particular, graphs of bounded lettericity have bounded linear clique-width and they are well-quasi-ordered by induced subgraphs. The latter property…

The independence number of a tree decomposition is the size of a largest independent set contained in a single bag. The tree-independence number of a graph $G$ is the minimum independence number of a tree decomposition of $G$. As shown…

Given a $k$-node pattern graph $H$ and an $n$-node host graph $G$, the subgraph counting problem asks to compute the number of copies of $H$ in $G$. In this work we address the following question: can we count the copies of $H$ faster if…

Understanding how a vertex relates to a set of vertices is a fundamental task in graph analysis. Given a graph $G$ and a vertex set $X \subseteq V(G)$, consider the collection of subsets of the form $N(u) \cap X$ where $u$ ranges over all…

In this paper, we show that for all $k\geq 10^8$, every graph with minimum degree $k$ and girth at least $10^8$ contains an induced subdivision of a $K_{k+1}$. This answers a problem asked by K\"uhn and Osthus (originally attributed to…

Sparse recovery can recover sparse signals from a set of underdetermined linear measurements. Motivated by the need to monitor large-scale networks from a limited number of measurements, this paper addresses the problem of recovering sparse…

In the k-arc connected subgraph problem, we are given a directed graph G and an integer k and the goal is the find a subgraph of minimum cost such that there are at least k-arc disjoint paths between any pair of vertices. We give a simple…

We study the \emph{{interval completion}} problem, which asks for the insertion of a set of at most $k$ edges to make a graph of $n$ vertices into an interval graph. We focus on chordal graphs with no small obstructions, where every…

A graph is called a sum graph if its vertices can be labelled by distinct positive integers such that there is an edge between two vertices if and only if the sum of their labels is the label of another vertex of the graph. Most papers on…
