A vertex subset $W\subseteq V$ of the graph $G = (V,E)$ is an independent dominating set if every vertex in $V\setminus W$ is adjacent to at least one vertex in $W$ and the vertices of $W$ are pairwise non-adjacent. We enumerate independent…
The aim of this paper is to characterize an important class of marked digraphs, called structurally observable graphs (SOGs), and to solve two minimum realization problems. To begin with, by exploring structural observability of large-scale…
We consider the size of the smallest set of vertices required to intersect every longest path in a chordal graph. Such sets are known as longest path transversals. We show that if $\omega(G)$ is the clique number of a chordal graph $G$,…
Unanticipated connections between different fragments of lambda calculus and different families of embedded graphs (a.k.a. "maps") motivate the problem of enumerating $\beta$-normal linear lambda terms. In this brief note, it is shown (by…
In this paper, we compute universal minimal flows of groups of automorphisms of uncountable $\omega$-homogeneous graphs, $K_n$-free graphs, hypergraphs, partially ordered sets, and their extensions with an $\omega$-homogeneous ordering. We…
The concept of Roman domination has recently been studied concerning enumerating and counting (WG 2022). It has been shown that minimal Roman dominating functions can be enumerated with polynomial delay, contrasting what is known about…
In this paper we consider aspects of geometric observability for hypergraphs, extending our earlier work from the uniform to the nonuniform case. Hypergraphs, a generalization of graphs, allow hyperedges to connect multiple nodes and…
Over all graphs (or unicyclic graphs) of a given order, we characterise those graphs that minimise or maximise the number of connected induced subgraphs. For each of these classes, we find that the graphs that minimise the number of…
Confirming a conjecture of Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il, we show that up to isomorphism there is only a finite number of finite minimal asymmetric undirected graphs. In fact, there are exactly 18 such graphs. We also show that these graphs are exactly…
We provide two algorithms counting the number of minimum Roman dominating functions of a graph on n vertices in O(1.5673^n) time and polynomial space. We also show that the time complexity can be reduced to O(1.5014^n) if exponential space…
Counting independent sets in graphs and hypergraphs under a variety of restrictions is a classical question with a long history. It is the subject of the celebrated container method which found numerous spectacular applications over the…
We discuss the complexity of path enumeration and counting in weighted temporal graphs. In a weighted temporal graph, each edge has an availability time, a traversal time and some real cost. We introduce two bicriteria temporal min-cost…
We study the classic problem of subgraph counting, where we wish to determine the number of occurrences of a fixed pattern graph $H$ in an input graph $G$ of $n$ vertices. Our focus is on bounded degeneracy inputs, a rich family of graph…
A dominating set $D$ of a graph $G$ is a set of vertices such that any vertex in $G$ is in $D$ or its neighbor is in $D$. Enumeration of minimal dominating sets in a graph is one of central problems in enumeration study since enumeration of…
The paper aims at finding acyclic graphs under a given set of constraints. More specifically, given a propositional formula {\phi} over edges of a fixed-size graph, the objective is to find a model of {\phi} that corresponds to a graph that…
We consider the problem of deterministically enumerating all minimum $k$-cut-sets in a given hypergraph for any fixed $k$. The input here is a hypergraph $G = (V, E)$ with non-negative hyperedge costs. A subset $F$ of hyperedges is a…
A dominating set in a graph is a set of vertices with the property that every vertex in the graph is either in the set or adjacent to something in the set. The domination sequence of the graph is the sequence whose $k$th term is the number…
In this note, we show that among finite nilpotent groups of a given order or finite groups of a given odd order, the cyclic group of that order has the minimum number of edges in its cyclic subgroup graph. We also conjecture that this holds…
The {\em independent domination number} $\gamma^i(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the maximum, over all independent sets $I$, of the minimal number of vertices needed to dominate $I$. It is known \cite{abz} that in chordal graphs $\gamma^i$ is equal…
Given a binary dominance relation on a set of alternatives, a common thread in the social sciences is to identify subsets of alternatives that satisfy certain notions of stability. Examples can be found in areas as diverse as voting theory,…
