Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph. For an edge $e=xy\in E$, the closed neighbourhood of $e$, denoted by $N_G[e]$ or $N_G[xy]$, is the set $N_G[x]\cup N_G[y]$. A vertex set $L\subseteq V$ is liar's vertex-edge dominating set of a graph $G=(V,E)$ if…
A graph G on n vertices is said to be extendable if G can be modified to form a new graph H on more than n vertices, while preserving the degrees of the vertices common to G and H. The added vertices all have the same degree and we define…
There exist many orthogonal graph drawing algorithms that minimize edge crossings or edge bends, however they produce unsatisfactory drawings in many practical cases. In this paper we present a grid-based algorithm for drawing orthogonal…
Every chordal graph $G$ can be represented as the intersection graph of a collection of subtrees of a host tree, a so-called {\em tree model} of $G$. The leafage $\ell(G)$ of a connected chordal graph $G$ is the minimum number of leaves of…
We introduce a novel representation of structured polynomial ideals, which we refer to as chordal networks. The sparsity structure of a polynomial system is often described by a graph that captures the interactions among the variables.…
Many edge and contour detection algorithms give a soft-value as an output and the final binary map is commonly obtained by applying an optimal threshold. In this paper, we propose a novel method to detect image contours from the extracted…

Motivated by hypergraph decomposition algorithms, we introduce the notion of edge-induced vertex-cuts and compare it with the well-known notions of edge-cuts and vertex-cuts. We investigate the complexity of computing minimum edge-induced…

Graph generation with Machine Learning is an open problem with applications in various research fields. In this work, we propose to cast the generative process of a graph into a sequential one, relying on a node ordering procedure. We use…
Given a graph $G=(V,E)$, the minimum branch vertices problem consists in finding a spanning tree $T=(V,E')$ of $G$ minimizing the number of vertices with degree greater than two. We consider a simple combinatorial lower bound for the…
We consider the problem of incremental cycle detection and topological ordering in a directed graph $G = (V, E)$ with $|V| = n$ nodes. In this setting, initially the edge-set $E$ of the graph is empty. Subsequently, at each time-step an…
The widely studied edge modification problems ask how to minimally alter a graph to satisfy certain structural properties. In this paper, we introduce and study a new edge modification problem centered around transforming a given graph into…
In this work we consider two two-criteria optimization problems: given an input graph, the goal is to find its interval (or chordal) supergraph that minimizes the number of edges and its clique number simultaneously. For the interval…
The semi-random graph process is a single-player game that begins with an empty graph on $n$ vertices. In each round, a vertex $u$ is presented to the player independently and uniformly at random. The player then adaptively selects a vertex…
The query complexity of graph properties is well-studied when queries are on edges. We investigate the same when queries are on nodes. In this setting a graph $G = (V, E)$ on $n$ vertices and a property $\mathcal{P}$ are given. A black-box…
It is known that complete graphs and complete multipartite graphs have modularity zero. We show that the least number of edges we may delete from the complete graph $K_n$ to obtain a graph with non-zero modularity is $\lfloor n/2\rfloor…
When we try to solve a system of linear equations, we can consider a simple iterative algorithm in which an equation including only one variable is chosen at each step, and the variable is fixed to the value satisfying the equation. The…
We present a method to gradually compute a smaller and smaller unsatisfiable core of a propositional formula by minimizing proofs of unsatisfiability. The goal is to compute a minimal unsatisfiable core that is relatively small compared to…
We investigate random processes for generating task-dependency graphs of order $n$ with $m$ edges and a specified number of initial vertices and terminal vertices. In order to do so, we consider two random processes for generating…
