Tree-width and path-width are widely successful concepts. Many NP-hard problems have efficient solutions when restricted to graphs of bounded tree-width. Many efficient algorithms are based on a tree decomposition. Sometimes the more…

We aim to find orientations of mixed graphs optimizing the total reachability, a problem that has applications in causality and biology. For given a digraph $D$, we use $P(D)$ for the set of ordered pairs of distinct vertices in $V(D)$ and…

The treedepth of a graph $G$ is the least possible depth of an elimination forest of $G$: a rooted forest on the same vertex set where every pair of vertices adjacent in $G$ is bound by the ancestor/descendant relation. We propose an…

In the $2$-reachability problem we are given a directed graph $G$ and we wish to determine if there are two (edge or vertex) disjoint paths from $u$ to $v$, for a given pair of vertices $u$ and $v$. In this paper, we present an algorithm…

In the restricted shortest paths problem, we are given a graph $G$ whose edges are assigned two non-negative weights: lengths and delays, a source $s$, and a delay threshold $D$. The goal is to find, for each target $t$, the length of the…

The directed graph reachability problem takes as input an $n$-vertex directed graph $G=(V,E)$, and two distinguished vertices $s$ and $t$. The problem is to determine whether there exists a path from $s$ to $t$ in $G$. This is a canonical…

Given an undirected graph G, the edge orientation problem asks for assigning a direction to each edge to convert G into a directed graph. The aim is to minimize the maximum out degree of a vertex in the resulting directed graph. This…

The tree-cut width of a graph is a graph parameter defined by Wollan [J. Comb. Theory, Ser. B, 110:47-66, 2015] with the help of tree-cut decompositions. In certain cases, tree-cut width appears to be more adequate than treewidth as an…
