Lubiw showed that several variants of Graph Isomorphism are NP-complete, where the solutions are required to satisfy certain additional constraints [SICOMP 10, 1981]. One of these, called Isomorphism With Restrictions, is to decide for two…
The celebrated notion of important separators bounds the number of small $(S,T)$-separators in a graph which are 'farthest from $S$' in a technical sense. In this paper, we introduce a generalization of this powerful algorithmic primitive…
For a real c \geq 1 and an integer n, let f(n,c) denote the maximum integer f so that every graph on n vertices contains an induced subgraph on at least f vertices in which the maximum degree is at most c times the minimum degree. Thus, in…
The girth of a graph is the length of its shortest cycle. Due to its relevance in graph theory, network analysis and practical fields such as distributed computing, girth-related problems have been object of attention in both past and…
Consider the setting of \emph{randomly weighted graphs}, namely, graphs whose edge weights are chosen independently according to probability distributions with finite support over the non-negative reals. Under this setting, properties of…
A dynamic graph algorithm is a data structure that answers queries about a property of the current graph while supporting graph modifications such as edge insertions and deletions. Prior work has shown strong conditional lower bounds for…
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…
We study the problem of finding the smallest graph that does not occur as an induced subgraph of a given graph. This missing induced subgraph has at most logarithmic size and can be found by a brute-force search, in an $n$-vertex graph, in…
For a (possibly infinite) fixed family of graphs F, we say that a graph G overlays F on a hypergraph H if V(H) is equal to V(G) and the subgraph of G induced by every hyperedge of H contains some member of F as a spanning subgraph.While it…
We consider the problem of finding a homomorphism from an input digraph $G$ to a fixed digraph $H$. We show that if $H$ admits a weak near unanimity polymorphism $\phi$ then deciding whether $G$ admits a homomorphism to $H$ (HOM($H$)) is…
The inverse eigenvalue problem of a given graph $G$ is to determine all possible spectra of real symmetric matrices whose off-diagonal entries are governed by the adjacencies in $G$. Barrett et al. introduced the Strong Spectral Property…
We investigate the asymptotic number of induced subgraphs in power-law uniform random graphs. We show that these induced subgraphs appear typically on vertices with specific degrees, which are found by solving an optimization problem.…
Given two graphs $H$ and $G$, the Subgraph Isomorphism problem asks if $H$ is isomorphic to a subgraph of $G$. While NP-hard in general, algorithms exist for various parameterized versions of the problem: for example, the problem can be…
We consider the $\Pi$-free Deletion problem parameterized by the size of a vertex cover, for a range of graph properties $\Pi$. Given an input graph $G$, this problem asks whether there is a subset of at most $k$ vertices whose removal…
Many real-world networks can be modeled as graphs. Finding dense subgraphs is a key problem in graph mining with applications in diverse domains. In this paper, we consider two variants of the densest subgraph problem where multiple graph…
The locality of a graph problem is the smallest distance $T$ such that each node can choose its own part of the solution based on its radius-$T$ neighborhood. In many settings, a graph problem can be solved efficiently with a distributed or…
We consider the problem of counting the number of copies of a fixed graph $H$ within an input graph $G$. This is one of the most well-studied algorithmic graph problems, with many theoretical and practical applications. We focus on solving…
Chudnovsky, Kim, Oum, and Seymour recently established that any prime graph contains one of a short list of induced prime subgraphs [1]. In the present paper we reprove their theorem using many of the same ideas, but with the key…
A resolving set $S$ of a graph $G$ is a subset of its vertices such that no two vertices of $G$ have the same distance vector to $S$. The Metric Dimension problem asks for a resolving set of minimum size, and in its decision form, a…
An induced subgraph is called an induced matching if each vertex is a degree-1 vertex in the subgraph. The \textsc{Almost Induced Matching} problem asks whether we can delete at most $k$ vertices from the input graph such that the remaining…
