We study the Factorization Paradox from the bottom up by adapting methods from perturbative renormalization. Just as quantum field theories are plagued with loop divergences that need to be cancelled systematically by introducing…

Motivated by the problem of Hurwitz equivalence of $\Delta ^2$ factorization in the braid group, we address the problem of Hurwitz equivalence in the symmetric group, obtained by projecting the $\Delta ^2$ factorizations into $S_n$. We get…

The Satisfactory Partition problem consists in deciding if the set of vertices of a given undirected graph can be partitioned into two nonempty parts such that each vertex has at least as many neighbours in its part as in the other part.…

For a given graph $G$ with positive integral cost and delay on edges, distinct vertices $s$ and $t$, cost bound $C\in Z^{+}$ and delay bound $D\in Z^{+}$, the $k$ bi-constraint path ($k$BCP) problem is to compute $k$ disjoint $st$-paths…

Counting the number of homomorphisms of a pattern graph H in a large input graph G is a fundamental problem in computer science. There are myriad applications of this problem in databases, graph algorithms, and network science. Often, we…

It is proven that for any integer $g \ge 0$ and $k \in \{ 0, \ldots, 10 \}$, there exist infinitely many 5-regular graphs of genus $g$ containing a 1-factorisation with exactly $k$ pairs of 1-factors that are perfect, i.e. form a…

Methods to determine the existence of Hamiltonian Cycles in graphs have been extensively studied. However, little research has been done following cases when no Hamiltonian Cycle exists. Let a vertex be "unbounded" if it is visited more…

One of the main open problems in the context of extensions of Hilbert's tenth problem (HTP) is the case of the ring of complex entire functions in one variable. Our main result provides a step towards an answer: For every $\rho\ge 0$, we…

The problem Cover(H) asks whether an input graph G covers a fixed graph H (i.e., whether there exists a homomorphism G to H which locally preserves the structure of the graphs). Complexity of this problem has been intensively studied. In…

In this paper we consider the Hamilton cycle problem in the rectangular meshes with at most two faulty nodes.We prove that this problem is solvable in polynomial time with a corresponding algorithm. We provided an entirely new approach to…

Given an $n$-vertex pseudorandom graph $G$ and an $n$-vertex graph $H$ with maximum degree at most two, we wish to find a copy of $H$ in $G$, i.e.\ an embedding $\varphi\colon V(H)\to V(G)$ so that $\varphi(u)\varphi(v)\in E(G)$ for all…

Let $G$ be a graph obtained as the union of some $n$-vertex graph $H_n$ with minimum degree $\delta(H_n)\geq\alpha n$ and a $d$-dimensional random geometric graph $G^d(n,r)$. We investigate under which conditions for $r$ the graph $G$ will…

We present a memetic algorithm (\maa) approach for finding a Hamiltonian cycle in a Hamiltonian graph. The \ma is based on a proven approach to the Asymmetric Travelling Salesman Problem (\atspp) that, in this contribution, is boosted by…

Given a graph $X$ with a Hamilton cycle $C$, the {\em compression factor $\kappa(X,C)$ of $C$} is the order of the largest cyclic subgroup of $\operatorname{Aut}(C)\cap\operatorname{Aut}(X)$, and the {\em Hamilton compression $\kappa(X)$ of…

We find the Holographic Renormalization Group equations for the holographic duals of generic gravity theories coupled to form fields and spin-1/2 fermions. Using Hamilton-Jacobi theory we discuss the structure of Ward identities, anomalies,…

We consider the $k$-Center problem and some generalizations. For $k$-Center a set of $k$ center vertices needs to be found in a graph $G$ with edge lengths, such that the distance from any vertex of $G$ to its nearest center is minimized.…

The Oberwolfach problem, posed by Ringel in 1967, asks for a decomposition of $K_{2n+1}$ into edge-disjoint copies of a given $2$-factor. We show that this can be achieved for all large $n$. We actually prove a significantly more general…

The Hamiltonian cycle problem is to decide whether a given graph has a Hamiltonian cycle. Bertossi and Bonuccelli (1986, Information Processing Letters, 23, 195-200) proved that the Hamiltonian Cycle Problem is NP-Complete even for…
