The $(n-\ell)$-deck of an $n$-vertex graph is the multiset of (unlabeled) subgraphs obtained from it by deleting $\ell$ vertices. An $n$-vertex graph is $\ell$-reconstructible if it is determined by its $(n-\ell)$-deck, meaning that no…
Subgraph reconfiguration is a family of problems focusing on the reachability of the solution space in which feasible solutions are subgraphs, represented either as sets of vertices or sets of edges, satisfying a prescribed graph structure…
We consider the following graph reconstruction problem: given an unweighted connected graph $G = (V,E)$ with visible vertex set $V$ and an oracle which takes two vertices $u,v \in V$ and returns the shortest path distance between $u$ and…
We present new algorithms for counting and detecting small tournaments in a given tournament. In particular, it is proved that every tournament on four vertices (there are four) can be detected in $O(n^2)$ time and counted in $O(n^\omega)$…
Invertible transformation of large graphs into fixed dimensional vectors (embeddings) remains a challenge. Its overcoming would reduce any operation on graphs to an operation in a vector space. However, most existing methods are limited to…
A $\overrightarrow{P_{3}}$-decomposition of a directed graph $D$ is a partition of the arcs of $D$ into directed paths of length $2$. In this paper, we give a characterization for a tournament and a bipartite digraph admitting a…
In the Graph Reconstruction (GR) problem, the goal is to recover a hidden graph by utilizing some oracle that provides limited access to the structure of the graph. The interest is in characterizing how strong different oracles are when the…
A graph vertex-subset problem defines which subsets of the vertices of an input graph are feasible solutions. We view a feasible solution as a set of tokens placed on the vertices of the graph. A reconfiguration variant of a vertex-subset…
The Reconstruction Conjecture due to Kelly and Ulam states that every graph with at least 3 vertices is uniquely determined by its multiset of subgraphs $\{G-v: v\in V(G)\}$. Let $diam(G)$ and $\kappa(G)$ denote the diameter and the…
A modified $k$-deck of a graph is obtained by removing $k$ edges in all possible ways and adding $k$ (not necessarily new) edges in all possible ways. Krasikov and Roditty used these decks to give an independent proof of M\"uller's result…
Tournaments are graphs obtained by assigning a direction for every edge in an undirected complete graph. We give a formula for the number of isomorphism classes of vertex-transitive tournaments with prime order. For that, we introduce…
The abstract induced subgraph poset of a graph is the isomorphism class of the induced subgraph poset of the graph, suitably weighted by subgraph counting numbers. The abstract bond lattice and the abstract edge-subgraph poset are defined…
For an oriented graph $D$ and a set $X\subseteq V(D)$, the inversion of $X$ in $D$ is the digraph obtained by reversing the orientations of the edges of $D$ with both endpoints in $X$. The inversion number of $D$, $\textrm{inv}(D)$, is the…
How efficiently can we find an unknown graph using distance queries between its vertices? We assume that the unknown graph is connected, unweighted, and has bounded degree. The goal is to find every edge in the graph. This problem admits a…
A digraph is $3$-dicritical if it cannot be vertex-partitioned into two sets inducing acyclic digraphs, but each of its proper subdigraphs can. We give a human-readable proof that the number of 3-dicritical semi-complete digraphs is finite.…
We extend the study of link-irregular graphs to directed graphs (digraphs), where a digraph is link-irregular if no two vertices have isomorphic directed links. We establish that link-irregular digraphs exist on $n$ vertices if and only if…
The Harary reconstruction conjecture states that any graph with more than four edges can be uniquely reconstructed from its set of maximal edge-deleted subgraphs. In 1977, M\"uller verified the conjecture for graphs with $n$ vertices and $n…
In this paper, we investigate three fundamental problems regarding cut complexes of graphs: their realizability, the uniqueness of graph reconstruction from them, and their algorithmic recognition. We define the parameter $m(d,n)$ as the…
We investigate the problem of reconstructing a set $P\subseteq \mathbb{R}$ of distinct points, where the only information available about $P$ consists of the distances between some of the pairs of points. More precisely, we examine which…
The matching polynomial of a graph is the generating function of the numbers of its matchings with respect to their cardinality. A graph polynomial is polynomial reconstructible, if its value for a graph can be determined from its values…
