We consider the problem of counting the number of vertices reachable from each vertex in a digraph $G$, which is equal to computing all the out-degrees of the transitive closure of $G$. The current (theoretically) fastest algorithms run in…
The girth of a graph is the length of its shortest cycle. We give an algorithm that computes in O(n(log n)^3) time and O(n) space the (weighted) girth of an n-vertex planar digraph with arbitrary real edge weights. This is an improvement of…
The geodesic Voronoi diagram of m point sites inside a simple polygon of n vertices is a subdivision of the polygon into m cells, one to each site, such that all points in a cell share the same nearest site under the geodesic distance. The…
We study a well known noisy model of the graph isomorphism problem. In this model, the goal is to perfectly recover the vertex correspondence between two edge-correlated Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi random graphs, with an initial seed set of…
We consider the problem of drawing an outerplanar graph with $n$ vertices with at most one bend per edge if the outer face is already drawn as a simple polygon. We prove that it can be decided in $O(nm)$ time if such a drawing exists, where…
The intersection graph of a collection of trapezoids with corner points lying on two parallel lines is called a trapezoid graph. Using binary indexed tree data structure, we improve algorithms for calculating the size and the number of…
Computing a minimum-area planar straight-line drawing of a graph is known to be NP-hard for planar graphs, even when restricted to outerplanar graphs. However, the complexity question is open for trees. Only a few hardness results are known…
Say that an edge of a graph $G$ dominates itself and every other edge adjacent to it. An edge dominating set of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a subset of edges $E' \subseteq E$ which dominates all edges of $G$. In particular, if every edge of $G$ is…
We consider the following problem that we call the Shortest Two Disjoint Paths problem: given an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ with edge weights $w:E \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$, two terminals $s$ and $t$ in $G$, find two internally…
This paper consists of a few results, discovered and proved during the 2012-2013 research group at Eastern Oregon University. Inertia tables are a visual representation of the possible inertias of a given graph. The inertia of a graph…
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph. An ordering of $G$ is a bijection $\alpha: V\dom \{1,2,..., |V|\}.$ For a vertex $v$ in $G$, its closed neighborhood is $N[v]=\{u\in V: uv\in E\}\cup \{v\}.$ The profile of an ordering $\alpha$ of $G$ is…
The classical, linear-time solvable Feedback Edge Set problem is concerned with finding a minimum number of edges intersecting all cycles in a (static, unweighted) graph. We provide a first study of this problem in the setting of temporal…
In this paper, we present efficient algorithms for the single-source shortest path problem in weighted disk graphs. A disk graph is the intersection graph of a family of disks in the plane. Here, the weight of an edge is defined as the…
Given a rooted tree and a ranking of its leaves, what is the minimum number of inversions of the leaves that can be attained by ordering the tree? This variation of the problem of counting inversions in arrays originated in mathematical…
We analyze the computational complexity of the following computational problems called Bounded-Density Edge Deletion and Bounded-Density Vertex Deletion: Given a graph $G$, a budget $k$ and a target density $\tau_\rho$, are there $k$ edges…
We consider two problems for a directed graph $G$, which we show to be closely related. The first one is to find $k$ edge-disjoint forests in $G$ of maximal size such that the indegree of each vertex in these forests is at most $k$. We…
In this work, we follow the current trend on temporal graph realization, where one is given a property P and the goal is to determine whether there is a temporal graph, that is, a graph where the edge set changes over time, with property P…
In this paper we are concerned with finding the vertices of the Voronoi cell of a Euclidean lattice. Given a basis of a lattice, we prove that computing the number of vertices is a #P-hard problem. On the other hand we describe an algorithm…
Given a graph $G=(V,E)$ with two distinguished vertices $s,t\in V$ and an integer parameter $L>0$, an {\em $L$-bounded cut} is a subset $F$ of edges (vertices) such that the every path between $s$ and $t$ in $G\setminus F$ has length more…
We show that there exists a graph $G$ with $O(n)$ nodes, where any forest of $n$ nodes is a node-induced subgraph of $G$. Furthermore, for constant arboricity $k$, the result implies the existence of a graph with $O(n^k)$ nodes that…
