We show that the resolution graph of a plane curve singularity admits a canonical decomposition into elementary graphs.
Verifying graph algorithms has long been considered challenging in separation logic, mainly due to structural sharing between graph subcomponents. We show that these challenges can be effectively addressed by representing graphs as a…
A common problem in graph colouring seeks to decompose the edge set of a given graph into few similar and simple subgraphs, under certain divisibility conditions. In 1987 Wormald conjectured that the edges of every cubic graph on $4n$…
Topological drawings are natural representations of graphs in the plane, where vertices are represented by points, and edges by curves connecting the points. Topological drawings of complete graphs and of complete bipartite graphs have been…
In this paper, we study Dehn colorings of spatial graph diagrams, and classify the vertex conditions, equivalently the palettes. We give some example of spatial graphs which can be distinguished by the number of Dehn colorings with…
Circular-arc graphs are intersection graphs of arcs on the circle. The aim of our work is to present a polynomial time algorithm testing whether two circular-arc graphs are isomorphic. To accomplish our task we construct decomposition…
To determine that two given undirected graphs are isomorphic, we construct for them auxiliary graphs, using the breadth-first search. This makes capability to position vertices in each digraph with respect to each other. If the given graphs…
A tree containing exactly two non-pendant vertices is called a double-star. Let $k_1$ and $k_2$ be two positive integers. The double-star with degree sequence $(k_1+1, k_2+1, 1, \ldots, 1)$ is denoted by $S_{k_1, k_2}$. If $G$ is a cubic…
We study the graphs formed from instances of the stable matching problem by connecting pairs of elements with an edge when there exists a stable matching in which they are matched. Our results include the NP-completeness of recognizing…
In this paper, we study Dehn colorings for spatial graphs, and give a family of spatial graph invariants that are called vertex-weight invariants. We give some examples of spatial graphs that can be distinguished by a vertex-weight…
In this report, we describe a novel graph invariant for computational graphs (colored directed acylic graphs) and how we used it to generate all distinct computational graphs up to isomorphism for small graphs. The algorithm iteratively…
We tackle three optimization problems in which a colored graph, where each node is assigned a color, must be partitioned into colorful connected components. A component is defined as colorful if each color appears at most once. The problems…
This article establishes that the split decomposition of graphs introduced by Cunnigham, is definable in Monadic Second-Order Logic.This result is actually an instance of a more general result covering canonical graph decompositions like…
An assignment of colours to the vertices of a graph is stable if any two vertices of the same colour have identically coloured neighbourhoods. The goal of colour refinement is to find a stable colouring that uses a minimum number of…
The Subgraph Isomorphism problem asks, given a host graph G on n vertices and a pattern graph P on k vertices, whether G contains a subgraph isomorphic to P. The restriction of this problem to planar graphs has often been considered. After…
Canonical orderings and their relatives such as st-numberings have been used as a key tool in algorithmic graph theory for the last decades. Recently, a unifying concept behind all these orders has been shown: they can be described by a…
The study of graph vertex colorability from an algebraic perspective has introduced novel techniques and algorithms into the field. For instance, it is known that $k$-colorability of a graph $G$ is equivalent to the condition $1 \in…
Graph canonization is the problem of computing a unique representative, a canon, from the isomorphism class of a given graph. This implies that two graphs are isomorphic exactly if their canons are equal. We show that graphs of bounded tree…
We investigate an algebraic problem related to the determination of the fundamental group of a class of spaces of configurations on surfaces. The configuration spaces are spaces of points grouped into colors. Whether two points are allowed…
The aim of this paper is to generalize the notion of the coloring complex of a graph to hypergraphs. We present three different interpretations of those complexes -- a purely combinatorial one and two geometric ones. It is shown, that most…
