In recent work by Johnson et al. (2022), a framework was described for the study of graph problems over classes specified by omitting each of a finite set of graphs as subgraphs. If a problem falls into the framework then its computational…
In the last decade, algorithmic frameworks based on a structural graph parameter called mim-width have been developed to solve generally NP-hard problems. However, it is known that the frameworks cannot be applied to the Clique problem, and…
We study the problem of finding a minimum-distortion embedding of the shortest path metric of an unweighted graph into a "simpler" metric $X$. Computing such an embedding (exactly or approximately) is a non-trivial task even when $X$ is the…
Modern graph embedding procedures can efficiently process graphs with millions of nodes. In this paper, we propose GEMSEC -- a graph embedding algorithm which learns a clustering of the nodes simultaneously with computing their embedding.…

We propose two fixed-parameter tractable algorithms for the weighted Max-Cut problem on embedded 1-planar graphs parameterized by the crossing number $k$ of the given embedding. A graph is called 1-planar if it can be drawn in the plane…
In this work, we study how far one can deviate from optimal behavior when embedding a planar graph. For a planar graph $G$, we say that a plane subgraph $H\subseteq G$ is a \textit{plane-saturated subgraph} if adding any edge (possibly with…
A set $\mathcal{G}$ of planar graphs on the same number $n$ of vertices is called simultaneously embeddable if there exists a set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane such that every graph $G \in \mathcal{G}$ admits a (crossing-free)…
We study the version of the C-Planarity problem in which edges connecting the same pair of clusters must be grouped into pipes, which generalizes the Strip Planarity problem. We give algorithms to decide several families of instances for…
We are interested in multilayer graph clustering, which aims at dividing the graph nodes into categories or communities. To do so, we propose to learn a clustering-friendly embedding of the graph nodes by solving an optimization problem…
Graph clustering is a fundamental problem that has been extensively studied both in theory and practice. The problem has been defined in several ways in literature and most of them have been proven to be NP-Hard. Due to their high practical…
In the F-minor-free deletion problem we want to find a minimum vertex set in a given graph that intersects all minor models of graphs from the family F. The Vertex planarization problem is a special case of F-minor-free deletion for the…
A \emph{$t$-treewidth-modulator} of a graph $G$ is a set $X \subseteq V(G)$ such that the treewidth of $G-X$ is at most some constant $t-1$. In this paper, we present a novel algorithm to compute a decomposition scheme for graphs $G$ that…
We develop a new approach for distributed distance computation in planar graphs that is based on a variant of the metric compression problem recently introduced by Abboud et al. [SODA'18]. One of our key technical contributions is in…
We propose a novel graph clustering method guided by additional information on the underlying structure of the clusters (or communities). The problem is formulated as the matching of a graph to a template with smaller dimension, hence…

The Induced Graph Matching problem asks to find k disjoint induced subgraphs isomorphic to a given graph H in a given graph G such that there are no edges between vertices of different subgraphs. This problem generalizes the classical…
The Subgraph Isomorphism problem asks, given a host graph G on n vertices and a pattern graph P on k vertices, whether G contains a subgraph isomorphic to P. The restriction of this problem to planar graphs has often been considered. After…
Embedding graph nodes into a vector space can allow the use of machine learning to e.g. predict node classes, but the study of node embedding algorithms is immature compared to the natural language processing field because of a diverse…
It has been recently shown that any graph of genus g>0 can be stochastically embedded into a distribution over planar graphs, with distortion Olog (g+1)) [Sidiropoulos, FOCS 2010]. This embedding can be computed in polynomial time, provided…
