We show that the Waring's number over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, denoted $g(k,q)$, when exists, coincides with the diameter of the generalized Paley graph $\Gamma(k,q)=Cay(\mathbb{F}_{q},R_k)$ with $R_k=\{x^k : x\in \mathbb{F}_q^*\}$.…

The nonnegative inverse eigenvalue problem (NIEP) asks which lists of $n$ complex numbers (counting multiplicity) occur as the eigenvalues of some $n$-by-$n$ entry-wise nonnegative matrix. The NIEP has a long history and is a known hard…

In the present paper, we give a complete classification of connected simple graphs whose edge rings have a $q$-linear resolution with $q \geq 2$. In particular, we show that the edge ring of a finite connected simple graph with a $q$-linear…

It is known that the problem of computing the edge dimension of a graph is NP-hard, and that the edge dimension of any generalized Petersen graph $P(n,k)$ is at least 3. We prove that the graph $P(n,3)$ has edge dimension 4 for $n\ge 11$,…

This is a continuation of the papers [Kuryakov-Sukochev, JFA, 2015] and [Sadovskaya-Sukochev, PAMS, 2018], in which the isomorphic classification of $L_{p,q}$, for $1< p<\infty$, $1\le q<\infty$, $p\ne q $, on resonant measure spaces, has…

We show that given a 3-colorable graph, it is NP-hard to find a 3-coloring with $(16/17 + \eps)$ of the edges bichromatic. In a related result, we show that given a satisfiable instance of the 2-to-1 Label Cover problem, it is NP-hard to…

For a graph $H$, the $H$-free Edge Deletion problem asks whether there exist at most $k$ edges whose deletion from the input graph $G$ results in a graph without any induced copy of $H$. We prove that $H$-free Edge Deletion is NP-complete…

Boundary labeling is a technique in computational geometry used to label sets of features in an illustration. It involves placing labels along an axis-parallel bounding box and connecting each label with its corresponding feature using…

We consider a natural generalization of the Partial Vertex Cover problem. Here an instance consists of a graph G = (V,E), a positive cost function c: V-> Z^{+}, a partition $P_1,..., P_r$ of the edge set $E$, and a parameter $k_i$ for each…

For all $k \geq 1$, we show that deciding whether a graph is $k$-planar is NP-complete, extending the well-known fact that deciding 1-planarity is NP-complete. Furthermore, we show that the gap version of this decision problem is…

We study the computational complexity of the general network satisfaction problem for a finite relation algebra $A$ with a normal representation $B$. If $B$ contains a non-trivial equivalence relation with a finite number of equivalence…

In this paper we show that the problem of identifying an edge $(i,j)$ in a graph $G$ such that there exists an optimal vertex cover $S$ of $G$ containing exactly one of the nodes $i$ and $j$ is NP-hard. Such an edge is called a weak edge.…

Let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$ and edge set $E(G)$, and $f$ be a 0-1 labeling of $E(G)$ so that the absolute difference in the number of edges labeled 1 and 0 is no more than one. Call such a labeling $f$ \emph{edge-friendly}.…

Graph labellings have been a very fruitful area of research in the last four decades. However, despite the staggering number of papers published in the field (over 1000), few general results are available, and most papers deal with…
