We present a polynomial space Monte Carlo algorithm that given a directed graph on $n$ vertices and average outdegree $\delta$, detects if the graph has a Hamiltonian cycle in $2^{n-\Omega(\frac{n}{\delta})}$ time. This asymptotic scaling…
We introduce the problem EndOfPotentialLine and the corresponding complexity class EOPL of all problems that can be reduced to it in polynomial time. This class captures problems that admit a single combinatorial proof of their joint…
The Tree Evaluation Problem ($\mathsf{TreeEval}$) is a computational problem originally proposed as a candidate to prove a separation between complexity classes $\mathsf{P}$ and $\mathsf{L}$. Recently, this problem has gained significant…
We present here some results on particular elimination schemes for chordal graphs, namely we show that for any chordal graph we can construct in linear time a simplicial elimination scheme starting with a pending maximal clique attached via…
We show that for a number of parameterized problems for which only $2^{O(k)} n^{O(1)}$ time algorithms are known on general graphs, subexponential parameterized algorithms with running time $2^{O(k^{1-\frac{1}{1+\delta}} \log^2 k)}…
In this paper, a polynomial time algorithm for finding the set of all cyclic subsets in a graph is presented. The concept of cyclic subsets has already been introduced in an earlier paper. The algorithm finds cyclic subsets in a graph G by…
We address the following general question: given a graph class C on which we can solve Maximum Matching in (quasi) linear time, does the same hold true for the class of graphs that can be modularly decomposed into C ? A major difficulty in…
We consider the computational problem of finding short paths in the skeleton of the perfect matching polytope of a bipartite graph. We prove that unless $P=NP$, there is no polynomial-time algorithm that computes a path of constant length…
We present several modifications to the previously proposed MSPP algorithm that can speed-up its execution considerably. The MSPP algorithm leverages a multiscale representation of the environment in $n$ dimensions. The information of the…
We show that solving planning domains on binary variables with polytree causal graph is \NP-complete. This is in contrast to a polynomial-time algorithm of Domshlak and Brafman that solves these planning domains for polytree causal graphs…
We consider the problem of estimating the number of triangles in a graph. This problem has been extensively studied in both theory and practice, but all existing algorithms read the entire graph. In this work we design a {\em…
The last in-tree recognition problem asks whether a given spanning tree can be derived by connecting each vertex with its rightmost left neighbor of some search ordering. In this study, we demonstrate that the last-in-tree recognition…
${ NP}$-complete problem "Hamiltonian cycle"\ for graph $G=(V,E)$ is extended to the "Hamiltonian Complement of the Graph"\ problem of finding the minimal cardinality set $H$ containing additional edges so that graph $G=(V,E\cup H)$ is…
The Hausdorff distance is a relatively new measure of similarity of graphs. The notion of the Hausdorff distance considers a special kind of a common subgraph of the compared graphs and depends on the structural properties outside of the…
A breakthrough result of Cygan et al. (FOCS 2011) showed that connectivity problems parameterized by treewidth can be solved much faster than the previously best known time $\mathcal{O}^*(2^{\mathcal{O}(tw \log(tw))})$. Using their inspired…
We obtain structure theorems for graphs excluding a fan (a path with a universal vertex) or a dipole ($K_{2,k}$) as a topological minor. The corresponding decompositions can be computed in FPT linear time. This is motivated by the study of…
The problem of extending partial geometric graph representations such as plane graphs has received considerable attention in recent years. In particular, given a graph $G$, a connected subgraph $H$ of $G$ and a drawing $\mathcal{H}$ of $H$,…
The treedepth of a graph $G$ is the least possible depth of an elimination forest of $G$: a rooted forest on the same vertex set where every pair of vertices adjacent in $G$ is bound by the ancestor/descendant relation. We propose an…
We present the first near-linear work and poly-logarithmic depth algorithm for computing a minimum cut in a graph, while previous parallel algorithms with poly-logarithmic depth required at least quadratic work in the number of vertices. In…
In this paper we compare and illustrate the algorithmic use of graphs of bounded tree-width and graphs of bounded clique-width. For this purpose we give polynomial time algorithms for computing the four basic graph parameters independence…
