Given a graph, we associate each edge with the transposition which exchanges the endvertices. Fixing a linear order on the edge set, we obtain a permutation of the vertices. D\'enes proved that the permutation is a full cyclic permutation…
It is known that every proper minor-closed class of graphs has bounded stack-number (a.k.a. book thickness and page number). While this includes notable graph families such as planar graphs and graphs of bounded genus, many other graph…
Given $D$ and $\gamma>0$, whenever $c>0$ is sufficiently small and $n$ sufficiently large, if $\mathcal{G}$ is a family of $D$-degenerate graphs of individual orders at most $n$, maximum degrees at most $\tfrac{cn}{\log n}$, and total…
Aboulker, Adler, Kim, Sintiari, and Trotignon conjectured that every graph with bounded maximum degree and large treewidth must contain, as an induced subgraph, a large subdivided wall, or the line graph of a large subdivided wall. This…
Graph matching refers to finding node correspondence between graphs, such that the corresponding node and edge's affinity can be maximized. In addition with its NP-completeness nature, another important challenge is effective modeling of…
A graph $G$ is universal for a class of graphs $\mathcal{C}$, if, up to isomorphism, $G$ contains every graph in $\mathcal{C}$ as a subgraph. In 1978, Chung and Graham asked for the minimal number $s(n)$ of edges in a graph with $n$…
Let $G$ be a graph on $n$ vertices and $\mathrm{STAB}_k(G)$ be the convex hull of characteristic vectors of its independent sets of size at most $k$. We study extension complexity of $\mathrm{STAB}_k(G)$ with respect to a fixed parameter…
We investigate whether an n-vertex instance (G,k) of Treewidth, asking whether the graph G has treewidth at most k, can efficiently be made sparse without changing its answer. By giving a special form of OR-cross-composition, we prove that…
We prove that the geometric thickness of graphs whose maximum degree is no more than four is two. All of our algorithms run in O(n) time, where n is the number of vertices in the graph. In our proofs, we present an embedding algorithm for…
Let $G$ be an embedded graph and $A$ an edge subset of $G$. The partial dual of $G$ with respect to $A$, denoted by $G^A$, can be viewed as the geometric dual $G^*$ of $G$ over $A$. If $A=E(G)$, then $G^A=G^*$. Denote by $\gamma(G^A)$ the…
We develop a new algorithmic technique that allows to transfer some constant time approximation algorithms for general graphs into random order streaming algorithms. We illustrate our technique by proving that in random order streams with…
In this paper we consider the problem of embedding almost-spanning, bounded degree graphs in a random graph. In particular, let $\Delta\geq 5$, $\varepsilon > 0$ and let $H$ be a graph on $(1-\varepsilon)n$ vertices and with maximum degree…
For a finite group $G$, let $B$ be an equivalence (equality, conjugacy or order) relation on $G$ and let $A$ be a (power, enhanced power or commuting) graph with vertex set $G$. The $B$ super $A$ graph is a simple graph with vertex set $G$…
A \emph{queue layout} of a graph consists of a total order of the vertices, and a partition of the edges into \emph{queues}, such that no two edges in the same queue are nested. The minimum number of queues in a queue layout of a graph is…
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)…
The local minimum degree of a graph is the minimum degree that can be reached by means of local complementation. For any n, there exist graphs of order n which have a local minimum degree at least 0.189n, or at least 0.110n when restricted…
Treewidth is an important graph invariant, relevant for both structural and algorithmic reasons. A necessary condition for a graph class to have bounded treewidth is the absence of large cliques. We study graph classes closed under taking…
An embedding of a graph into $\mathbb{R}^3$ is said to be linear, if any edge of the graph is sent to be a line segment. And we say that an embedding $f$ of a graph $G$ into $\mathbb{R}^3$ is free, if $\pi_1(\mathbb{R}^3-f(G))$ is a free…
Brambles were introduced as the dual notion to treewidth, one of the most central concepts of the graph minor theory of Robertson and Seymour. Recently, Grohe and Marx showed that there are graphs G, in which every bramble of order larger…
Grammar compression is a general compression framework in which a string $T$ of length $N$ is represented as a context-free grammar of size $n$ whose language contains only $T$. In this paper, we focus on studying the limitations of…
