Partitioning a connected graph into $k$~vertex-disjoint connected subgraphs of similar (or given) orders is a classical problem that has been intensively investigated since late seventies. Given a connected graph $G=(V,E)$ and a weight…

We consider two optimization problems in planar graphs. In Maximum Weight Independent Set of Objects we are given a graph $G$ and a family $\mathcal{D}$ of objects, each being a connected subgraph of $G$ with a prescribed weight, and the…

The presented material is devoted to the equivalent conversion from the vertex graphs to the edge graphs. We suggest that the proved theorems solve the problem of the isomorphism of graphs, the problem of the graph's enumeration with the…

The aim of the paper is to propose a bounded-error quantum polynomial time (BQP) algorithm for the max-bisection and the min-bisection problems. The max-bisection and the min-bisection problems are fundamental NP-hard problems. Given a…

We give a quasipolynomial time algorithm for the graph matching problem (also known as noisy or robust graph isomorphism) on correlated random graphs. Specifically, for every $\gamma>0$, we give a $n^{O(\log n)}$ time algorithm that given a…

Combinatorial optimization algorithms for graph problems are usually designed afresh for each new problem with careful attention by an expert to the problem structure. In this work, we develop a new framework to solve any combinatorial…

The graph isomorphism problem has a long history in mathematics and computer science, with applications in computational chemistry and biology, and it is believed to be neither solvable in polynomial time nor NP-complete. E. Luks proposed…

For two independent Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graphs $\mathbf G(n,p)$, we study the maximal overlap (i.e., the number of common edges) of these two graphs over all possible vertex correspondence. We present a polynomial-time algorithm which finds a…

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…

The criteria for determining graph isomorphism are crucial for solving graph isomorphism problems. The necessary condition is that two isomorphic graphs possess invariants, but their function can only be used to filtrate and subdivide…
