We prove that if a graph contains the complete bipartite graph $K_{134, 12}$ as an induced minor, then it contains a cycle of length at most~12 or a theta as an induced subgraph. With a longer and more technical proof, we prove that if a…
For a bipartite graph G, let h(G) be the largest t such that either G or the bipartite complement of G contain K_{t,t}. For a class F of graphs, let h(F)= min {h(G): G\in F}. We say that a bipartite graph H is strongly acyclic if neither H…
We introduce I/O-optimal certifying algorithms for bipartite graphs, as well as for the classes of split, threshold, bipartite chain, and trivially perfect graphs. When the input graph is a class member, the certifying algorithm returns a…
Bipartite graphs are a fundamental concept in graph theory with diverse applications. A graph is bipartite iff it contains no odd cycles, a characteristic that has many implications in diverse fields ranging from matching problems to the…
Let $G$ be a finite group. We consider the set of the irreducible complex characters of $G$, namely $Irr(G)$, and the related degree set $cd(G)=\{\chi(1) : \chi\in Irr(G)\}$. Let $\rho(G)$ be the set of all primes which divide some…
Enumerating minimal dominating sets with polynomial delay in bipartite graphs is a long-standing open problem. To date, even the subcase of chordal bipartite graphs is open, with the best known algorithm due to Golovach, Heggernes, Kant\'e,…
In this paper, we address the problem of enumerating all induced subtrees in an input k-degenerate graph, where an induced subtree is an acyclic and connected induced subgraph. A graph G = (V, E) is a k-degenerate graph if for any its…
A bipartite graph $G=(U,V,E)$ is convex if the vertices in $V$ can be linearly ordered such that for each vertex $u\in U$, the neighbors of $u$ are consecutive in the ordering of $V$. An induced matching $H$ of $G$ is a matching such that…
Intersection graphs are well-studied in the area of graph algorithms. Some intersection graph classes are known to have algorithms enumerating all unlabeled graphs by reverse search. Since these algorithms output graphs one by one and the…
We introduce a new subclass of chordal graphs that generalizes split graphs, which we call well-partitioned chordal graphs. Split graphs are graphs that admit a partition of the vertex set into cliques that can be arranged in a star…
In a finite undirected simple graph, a chordless cycle is an induced subgraph which is a cycle. A graph is called cyclically orientable if it admits an orientation in which every chordless cycle is cyclically oriented. We propose an…
Kang and Park recently showed that every cubic (loopless) multigraph is incidence 6-choosable [On incidence choosability of cubic graphs. \emph{arXiv}, April 2018]. Equivalently, every bipartite graph obtained by subdividing once every edge…
A vertex set $D$ in a finite undirected graph $G$ is an {\em efficient dominating set} (\emph{e.d.s.}\ for short) of $G$ if every vertex of $G$ is dominated by exactly one vertex of $D$. The \emph{Efficient Domination} (ED) problem, which…
Given a graph $G$, the maximal induced subgraphs problem asks to enumerate all maximal induced subgraphs of $G$ that belong to a certain hereditary graph class. While its optimization version, known as the minimum vertex deletion problem in…
Let k be an integer and k \geq 3. A graph G is k-chordal if G does not have an induced cycle of length greater than k. From the definition it is clear that 3-chordal graphs are precisely the class of chordal graphs. Duchet proved that, for…
A chordless cycle (induced cycle) $C$ of a graph is a cycle without any chord, meaning that there is no edge outside the cycle connecting two vertices of the cycle. A chordless path is defined similarly. In this paper, we consider the…
Each finite and connected bipartite graph induces a finite collection of non-isomorphic dessins d'enfants, that is, $2$-cell embeddings of it into some closed orientable surface. We describe an algorithm to compute all these dessins…
The problem of finding dense induced bipartite subgraphs in $H$-free graphs has a long history, and was posed 30 years ago by Erd\H{o}s, Faudree, Pach and Spencer. In this paper, we obtain several results in this direction. First we prove…
A graph $G = (V, E)$ is said to be word-representable if there exists a word $w$ over the alphabet $V$ such that, for any two distinct letters $x, y \in V$, the letters $x$ and $y$ alternate in $w$ if and only if $xy \in E$. A graph is…
