In the Multiagent Path Finding problem (MAPF for short), we focus on efficiently finding non-colliding paths for a set of $k$ agents on a given graph $G$, where each agent seeks a path from its source vertex to a target. An important…

In this paper, we continue the study of the Hamiltonian and longest $(s, t)$-paths of supergrid graphs. The Hamiltonian $(s, t)$-path of a graph is a Hamiltonian path between any two given vertices $s$ and $t$ in the graph, and the longest…

One interesting question is how a graph develops from some constrained random graph process, which is a fundamental mechanism in the formation and evolution of dynamic networks. The problem here is referred to the random $K_k$-removal…

For two positive integers $k$ and $\ell$, a $(k \times \ell)$-spindle is the union of $k$ pairwise internally vertex-disjoint directed paths with $\ell$ arcs between two vertices $u$ and $v$. We are interested in the (parameterized)…

It is proven that the connected pathwidth of any graph $G$ is at most $2\cdot\pw(G)+1$, where $\pw(G)$ is the pathwidth of $G$. The method is constructive, i.e. it yields an efficient algorithm that for a given path decomposition of width…

Given an integer k, we consider the parallel k-stripping process applied to a hypergraph H: removing all vertices with degree less than k in each iteration until reaching the k-core of H. Take H as H_r(n,m): a random r-uniform hypergraph on…

In a graph whose vertices are assigned integer ranks, a path is well-ranked if the endpoints have distinct ranks or some interior point has a higher rank than the endpoints. A ranking is an assignment of ranks such that all nontrivial paths…

Entanglement is a complexity measure of directed graphs that origins in fixed point theory. This measure has shown its use in designing efficient algorithms to verify logical properties of transition systems. We are interested in the…

In this paper, we study discrepancy questions for spanning subgraphs of $k$-uniform hypergraphs. Our main result is that, for any integers $k \ge 3$ and $r \ge 2$, any $r$-colouring of the edges of a $k$-uniform $n$-vertex hypergraph $G$…

We investigate the occurrence of powers of tight Hamilton cycles in random hypergraphs. For every $r\ge 3$ and $k\ge 1$, we show that there exists a constant $C > 0$ such that if $p=p(n) \ge Cn^{-1/\binom{k+r-2}{r-1}}$ then asymptotically…

Let integer $n \ge 3$ and integer $r = r(n) \ge 3$. Define the binomial random $r$-uniform hypergraph $H_r(n, p)$ to be the $r$-uniform graph on the vertex set $[n]$ such that each $r$-set is an edge independently with probability $p$. A…
