We provide algorithms involving edge slides, for a connected simple graph to evolve in a finite number of steps to another connected simple graph in a prescribed configuration, and for the regularization of such a graph by the minimization…

We present a new flow framework for separation logic reasoning about programs that manipulate general graphs. The framework overcomes problems in earlier developments: it is based on standard fixed point theory, guarantees least flows,…

Control flow graphs (CFGs) are essential tools for understanding program behavior, yet the size of real-world CFGs makes them difficult to interpret. With thousands of nodes and edges, sophisticated graph drawing algorithms are required to…

Given a large social or computer network, how can we visualize it, find patterns, outliers, communities? Although several graph visualization tools exist, they cannot handle large graphs with hundred thousand nodes and possibly million…

We show that the existence of a homomorphism from an $n$-vertex graph $G$ to an $h$-vertex graph $H$ can be decided in time $2^{O(n)}h^{O(1)}$ and polynomial space if $H$ comes from a family of graphs that excludes a topological minor. The…

We describe a general purpose algorithm for counting simple cycles and simple paths of any length $\ell$ on a (weighted di)graph on $N$ vertices and $M$ edges, achieving a time complexity of $O\left(N+M+\big(\ell^\omega+\ell\Delta\big)…

A graph is a mathematical object consisting of a set of vertices and a set of edges connecting vertices. Graphs can be drawn on paper in various ways, but until recently all published methods of drawing graphs have had undesirable…

The streaming model was introduced to parameterized complexity independently by Fafianie and Kratsch [MFCS14] and by Chitnis, Cormode, Hajiaghayi and Monemizadeh [SODA15]. Subsequently, it was broadened by Chitnis, Cormode, Esfandiari,…
