Given a finite non-decreasing sequence $d=(d_1,\ldots,d_n)$ of natural numbers, the Graph Realization problem asks whether $d$ is a graphic sequence, i.e., there exists a labeled simple graph such that $(d_1,\ldots,d_n)$ is the degree…

In this paper, we propose novel algorithms for inferring the Maximum a Posteriori (MAP) solution of discrete pairwise random field models under multiple constraints. We show how this constrained discrete optimization problem can be…

In order to capture the dependence in the upper tail of a time series, we develop non-negative regularly-varying time series models that are constructed similarly to classical non-extreme ARMA models. Rather than fully characterizing tail…

We continue the study of graph classes in which the treewidth can only be large due to the presence of a large clique, and, more specifically, of graph classes with bounded tree-independence number. In [Dallard, Milani\v{c}, and…
