In the Steiner Tree problem we are given an undirected edge-weighted graph as input, along with a set $K$ of vertices called terminals. The task is to output a minimum-weight connected subgraph that spans all the terminals. The famous…
For a given graph $G=(V,\, E)$ with a terminal set $S$ and a selected root $r\in S$, a positive integer cost and a delay on every edge and a delay constraint $D\in Z^{+}$, the shallow-light Steiner tree (\emph{SLST}) problem is to compute a…
We consider the problem of deterministically enumerating all minimum $k$-cut-sets in a given hypergraph for any fixed $k$. The input here is a hypergraph $G = (V, E)$ with non-negative hyperedge costs. A subset $F$ of hyperedges is a…
We obtain polynomial-time approximation-preserving reductions (up to a factor of 1 + \epsilon) from the prize-collecting Steiner tree and prize-collecting Steiner forest problems in planar graphs to the corresponding problems in graphs of…
The $k$-cut problem asks, given a connected graph $G$ and a positive integer $k$, to find a minimum-weight set of edges whose removal splits $G$ into $k$ connected components. We give the first polynomial-time algorithm with approximation…
Given a simple connected undirected graph G = (V, E), a set X \subseteq V(G), and integers k and p, STEINER SUBGRAPH EXTENSION problem asks if there exists a set S \supseteq X with at most k vertices such that G[S] is p-edge-connected. This…
This paper proposes a new general technique for maximal subgraph enumeration which we call proximity search, whose aim is to design efficient enumeration algorithms for problems that could not be solved by existing frameworks. To support…
The Steiner tree problem aims to determine a minimum edge-weighted tree that spans a given set of terminal vertices from a given graph. In the past decade, a considerable number of algorithms have been developed to solve this…
The maximum common subtree isomorphism problem asks for the largest possible isomorphism between subtrees of two given input trees. This problem is a natural restriction of the maximum common subgraph problem, which is ${\sf NP}$-hard in…
A dominating set $D$ in a graph is a subset of its vertex set such that each vertex is either in $D$ or has a neighbour in $D$. In this paper, we are interested in the enumeration of (inclusion-wise) minimal dominating sets in graphs,…
A tree decomposition of a graph facilitates computations by grouping vertices into bags that are interconnected in an acyclic structure, hence their importance in a plethora of problems such as query evaluation over databases and inference…
In the Directed Steiner Tree (DST) problem the input is a directed edge-weighted graph $G=(V,E)$, a root vertex $r$ and a set $S \subseteq V$ of $k$ terminals. The goal is to find a min-cost subgraph that connects $r$ to each of the…
Let $G$ be an $n$-vertex graph, and $s,t$ vertices of $G$. We present an efficient algorithm which enumerates the set of minimal $st$-separators of $G$ in ascending order of cardinality, with a delay of $O(n^{3.5})$ per separator. In…
We present algorithms that run in linear time on pointer machines for a collection of problems, each of which either directly or indirectly requires the evaluation of a function defined on paths in a tree. These problems previously had…
We consider global problems, i.e. problems that take at least diameter time, even when the bandwidth is not restricted. We show that all problems considered admit efficient solutions in low-treewidth graphs. By ``efficient'' we mean that…
We consider network design problems with deadline or delay. All previous results for these models are based on randomized embedding of the graph into a tree (HST) and then solving the problem on this tree. We show that this is not…
Problems from metric graph theory like Metric Dimension, Geodetic Set, and Strong Metric Dimension have recently had a strong impact in parameterized complexity by being the first known problems in NP to admit double-exponential lower…
The Steiner Tree problem is a classical problem in combinatorial optimization: the goal is to connect a set $T$ of terminals in a graph $G$ by a tree of minimum size. Karpinski and Zelikovsky (1996) studied the $\delta$-dense version of…
We study Steiner Forest on $H$-subgraph-free graphs, that is, graphs that do not contain some fixed graph $H$ as a (not necessarily induced) subgraph. We are motivated by a recent framework that completely characterizes the complexity of…
The min-rank of a graph was introduced by Haemers (1978) to bound the Shannon capacity of a graph. This parameter of a graph has recently gained much more attention from the research community after the work of Bar-Yossef et al. (2006). In…
