Tree-decompositions and treewidth are of fundamental importance in structural and algorithmic graph theory. The "spread" of a tree-decomposition is the minimum integer $s$ such that every vertex lies in at most $s$ bags. A…

We investigate decompositions of a graph into a small number of low diameter subgraphs. Let P(n,\epsilon,d) be the smallest k such that every graph G=(V,E) on n vertices has an edge partition E=E_0 \cup E_1 \cup ... \cup E_k such that |E_0|…

This paper presents new deterministic and distributed low-diameter decomposition algorithms for weighted graphs. In particular, we show that if one can efficiently compute approximate distances in a parallel or a distributed setting, one…

An $(\epsilon,\phi)$-expander decomposition of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a clustering of the vertices $V=V_{1}\cup\cdots\cup V_{x}$ such that (1) each cluster $V_{i}$ induces subgraph with conductance at least $\phi$, and (2) the number of…

We propose to study unweighted graphs of constant distance VC-dimension as a broad generalization of many graph classes for which we can compute the diameter in truly subquadratic-time. In particular for any fixed $H$, the class of…

We present a different way to obtain generators of metric spaces having the property that the ``position'' of every element of the space is uniquely determined by the distances from the elements of the generators. Specifically we introduce…

Let $G$ and $H$ be graphs, and $G\boxtimes H$ the strong product of $G$ and $H$. We prove that for any connected graphs $G$ and $H$ there is a strongly connected orientation $D$ of $G\boxtimes H$ such that ${\rm diam}(D)\leq 2r+15$, where…

This paper explores the structure of graphs defined by an excluded minor or an excluded odd minor through the lens of graph products and tree-decompositions. We prove that every graph excluding a fixed odd minor is contained in the strong…

We give a simple, local process for nodes in an undirected graph to form non-adjacent clusters that (1) have at most a polylogarithmic diameter and (2) contain at least half of all vertices. Efficient deterministic distributed clustering…

Let $G$ be a finite group. The order supergraph of $G$ is the graph with vertex set $G$, and two distinct vertices $x,y$ are adjacent if $o(x)\mid o(y)$ or $o(y)\mid o(x)$. The enhanced power graph of $G$ is the graph whose vertex set is…

The strong geodetic problem is a recent variation of the classical geodetic problem. For a graph $G$, its strong geodetic number ${\rm sg}(G)$ is the cardinality of a smallest vertex subset $S$, such that each vertex of $G$ lies on one…

Let $G$ be a connected graph with vertex set $V(G)$ and edge set $E(G)$. For an ordered $k$-partition $\Pi=\{Q_1,\ldots,Q_k\}$ of $V(G)$, the representation of a vertex $v \in V(G)$ with respect to $\Pi$ is the $k$-vectors…

A strong orientation of a graph $G$ is an assignment of a direction to each edge such that $G$ is strongly connected. The oriented diameter of $G$ is the smallest diameter among all strong orientations of $G$. A block of $G$ is a maximal…

The paper systematically classifies rings based on the dominant metric dimensions (Ddim) of their associated CZDG, establishing consequential bounds for the Ddim of these compressed zero-divisor graphs. The authors investigate the interplay…

A partition $(C_1,C_2,...,C_q)$ of $G = (V,E)$ into clusters of strong (respectively, weak) diameter $d$, such that the supergraph obtained by contracting each $C_i$ is $\ell$-colorable is called a strong (resp., weak) $(d,…

The diameter of a graph is one if its most important parameters, being used in many real-word applications. In particular, the diameter dictates how fast information can spread throughout data and communication networks. Thus, it is a…

The component size of a graph is the maximum number of edges in any connected component of the graph. Given a graph $G$ and two integers $k$ and $c$, $(k,c)$-Decomposition is the problem of deciding whether $G$ admits an edge partition into…

For an ordered subset $S = \{s_1, s_2,\dots s_k\}$ of vertices and a vertex $u$ in a connected graph $G$, the metric representation of $u$ with respect to $S$ is the ordered $k$-tuple $ r(u|S)=(d_G(v,s_1), d_G(v,s_2),\dots,$ $d_G(v,s_k))$,…

The metric dimension of a graph is the minimum size of a set of vertices such that each vertex is uniquely determined by the distances to the vertices of that set. Our aim is to upper-bound the order $n$ of a graph in terms of its diameter…

A partition $\mathcal{P}$ of a weighted graph $G$ is $(\sigma,\tau,\Delta)$-sparse if every cluster has diameter at most $\Delta$, and every ball of radius $\Delta/\sigma$ intersects at most $\tau$ clusters. Similarly, $\mathcal{P}$ is…
