The Minimum Fill-in problem is to decide if a graph can be triangulated by adding at most k edges. Kaplan, Shamir, and Tarjan [FOCS 1994] have shown that the problem is solvable in time O(2^(O(k)) + k2 * nm) on graphs with n vertices and m…
In this work, we focus on several completion problems for subclasses of chordal graphs: Minimum Fill-In, Interval Completion, Proper Interval Completion, Threshold Completion, and Trivially Perfect Completion. In these problems, the task is…
We present a deterministic incremental algorithm for \textit{exactly} maintaining the size of a minimum cut with $\widetilde{O}(1)$ amortized time per edge insertion and $O(1)$ query time. This result partially answers an open question…
The paper presents an algorithm for minimum vertex cover problem, which is an NP-Complete problem. The algorithm computes a minimum vertex cover of each input simple graph. Tested by the attached MATLAB programs, Stage 1 of the algorithm is…
We give an $\tilde{O}(n^{7/5} \log (nC))$-time algorithm to compute a minimum-cost maximum cardinality matching (optimal matching) in $K_h$-minor free graphs with $h=O(1)$ and integer edge weights having magnitude at most $C$. This improves…
We present an algorithm for maintaining maximal matching in a graph under addition and deletion of edges. Our data structure is randomized that takes O(log n) expected amortized time for each edge update where n is the number of vertices in…
In this paper, we reduce the complexity of approximating the correlation clustering problem from $O(m\times\left( 2+ \alpha (G) \right)+n)$ to $O(m+n)$ for any given value of $\varepsilon$ for a complete signed graph with $n$ vertices and…
Consider the following 2-respecting min-cut problem. Given a weighted graph $G$ and its spanning tree $T$, find the minimum cut among the cuts that contain at most two edges in $T$. This problem is an important subroutine in Karger's…
In the \emph{incremental cycle detection} problem arcs are added to a directed acyclic graph and the algorithm has to report if the new arc closes a cycle. One seeks to minimize the total time to process the entire sequence of arc…
We describe two efficient on-line algorithms to simplify weighted graphs by eliminating degree-two vertices. Our algorithms are on-line in that they react to updates on the data, keeping the simplification up-to-date. The supported updates…
A pair of complementary algorithms are presented. One of the pair is a fast method for connecting graphs with an edge. The other is a fast method for removing edges from a graph. Both algorithms employ the same tree based graph…
We provide a simple new randomized contraction approach to the global minimum cut problem for simple undirected graphs. The contractions exploit 2-out edge sampling from each vertex rather than the standard uniform edge sampling. We…
The minimum completion (fill-in) problem is defined as follows: Given a graph family $\mathcal{F}$ (more generally, a property $\Pi$) and a graph $G$, the completion problem asks for the minimum number of non-edges needed to be added to $G$…
We consider the problem of finding all allowed edges in a bipartite graph $G=(V,E)$, i.e., all edges that are included in some maximum matching. We show that given any maximum matching in the graph, it is possible to perform this…
The minimum degree algorithm is one of the most widely-used heuristics for reducing the cost of solving large sparse systems of linear equations. It has been studied for nearly half a century and has a rich history of bridging techniques…
On an evolving graph that is continuously updated by a high-velocity stream of edges, how can one efficiently maintain if two vertices are connected? This is the connectivity problem, a fundamental and widely studied problem on graphs. We…
We consider the (exact, minimum) $k$-cut problem: given a graph and an integer $k$, delete a minimum-weight set of edges so that the remaining graph has at least $k$ connected components. This problem is a natural generalization of the…
We study the \emph{{interval completion}} problem, which asks for the insertion of a set of at most $k$ edges to make a graph of $n$ vertices into an interval graph. We focus on chordal graphs with no small obstructions, where every…
For an arbitrary undirected simple graph G with m edges, we give an algorithm with running time O(m^4 |L|^2) to generate the set L of all minimal edge dominating sets of G. For bipartite graphs we obtain a better result; we show that their…
We consider the incremental computation of the betweenness centrality of all vertices in a large complex network modeled as a graph G = (V, E), directed or undirected, with positive real edge-weights. The current widely used algorithm to…
