Say that an edge of a graph G dominates itself and every other edge adjacent to it. An edge dominating set of a graph G = (V,E) is a subset of edges E' of E which dominates all edges of G. In particular, if every edge of G is dominated by…
A $z$-matching on a bipartite graph is a set of edges, among which each vertex of two types of the graph is adjacent to at most $1$ and at most $z$ ($\geqslant 1$) edges, respectively. The $z$-matching problem concerns finding $z$-matchings…
An instance of the maximum mixed graph orientation problem consists of a mixed graph and a collection of source-target vertex pairs. The objective is to orient the undirected edges of the graph so as to maximize the number of pairs that…
We study distributed algorithms that find a maximal matching in an anonymous, edge-coloured graph. If the edges are properly coloured with $k$ colours, there is a trivial greedy algorithm that finds a maximal matching in $k-1$ synchronous…
We consider three variants of the problem of finding a maximum weight restricted $2$-matching in a subcubic graph $G$. (A $2$-matching is any subset of the edges such that each vertex is incident to at most two of its edges.) Depending on…
Perfect Matching-Cut is the problem of deciding whether a graph has a perfect matching that contains an edge-cut. We show that this problem is NP-complete for planar graphs with maximum degree four, for planar graphs with girth five, for…
A $k$-matching cover of a graph $G$ is a union of $k$ matchings of $G$ which covers $V(G)$. A matching cover of $G$ is optimal if it consists of the fewest matchings of $G$. In this paper, we present an algorithm for finding an optimal…
Graphs are a powerful way to model interactions and relationships in data from a wide variety of application domains. In this setting, entities represented by vertices at the "center" of the graph are often more important than those…
Many variations of the classical graph coloring model have been intensively studied due to their multiple applications; scheduling problems and aircraft assignments, for instance, motivate the robust coloring problem. This model gets to…
Covering problems are classical computational problems concerning whether a certain combinatorial structure 'covers' another. For example, the minimum vertex covering problem aims to find the smallest set of vertices in a graph so that each…
Graph matching is one of the most significant graph analytic tasks, which aims to find the node correspondence across different graphs. Most existing graph matching approaches mainly rely on topological information, whose performances are…
Edge-Geodetic Sets play a crucial role in network monitoring and optimization, wherein the goal is to strategically place monitoring stations on vertices of a network, represented as a graph, to ensure complete coverage of edges and…
We consider the {\em stochastic matching} problem. An edge-weighted general (i.e., not necessarily bipartite) graph $G(V, E)$ is given in the input, where each edge in $E$ is {\em realized} independently with probability $p$; the…
The graph matching problem seeks to find an alignment between the nodes of two graphs that minimizes the number of adjacency disagreements. Solving the graph matching is increasingly important due to it's applications in operations…
An $(f,g)$-semi-matching in a bipartite graph $G=(U \cup V,E)$ is a set of edges $M \subseteq E$ such that each vertex $u\in U$ is incident with at most $f(u)$ edges of $M$, and each vertex $v\in V$ is incident with at most $g(v)$ edges of…
We study the ratio, in a finite graph, of the sizes of the largest matching in any pair of disjoint matchings with the maximum total number of edges and the largest possible matching. Previously, it was shown that this ratio is between 4/5…
Graph Neural Networks have achieved remarkable accuracy in semi-supervised node classification tasks. However, these results lack reliable uncertainty estimates. Conformal prediction methods provide a theoretical guarantee for node…
Graph colorings is a fundamental topic in graph theory that require an assignment of labels (or colors) to vertices or edges subject to various constraints. We focus on the harmonious coloring of a graph, which is a proper vertex coloring…
Consider a problem where we are given a bipartite graph H with vertices arranged on two horizontal lines in the plane, such that the two sets of vertices placed on the two lines form a bipartition of H. We additionally require that H admits…
