Chordal decomposition techniques are used to reduce large structured positive semidefinite matrix constraints in semidefinite programs (SDPs). The resulting equivalent problem contains multiple smaller constraints on the nonzero blocks (or…
Enumeration kernelization was first proposed by Creignou et al. [TOCS 2017] and was later refined by Golovach et al. [JCSS 2022] into two different variants: fully-polynomial enumeration kernelization and polynomial-delay enumeration…
In this paper, we introduce the \emph{interval query problem} on cube-free median graphs. Let $G$ be a cube-free median graph and $\mathcal{S}$ be a commutative semigroup. For each vertex $v$ in $G$, we are given an element $p(v)$ in…

Enumeration problems are often encountered as key subroutines in the exact computation of graph parameters such as chromatic number, treewidth, or treedepth. In the case of treedepth computation, the enumeration of inclusion-wise minimal…

We study the complexity of finding the \emph{geodetic number} on subclasses of planar graphs and chordal graphs. A set $S$ of vertices of a graph $G$ is a \emph{geodetic set} if every vertex of $G$ lies in a shortest path between some pair…
We consider the problem of finding a subgraph of a given graph which minimizes the sum of given functions at vertices evaluated at their subgraph degrees. While the problem is NP-hard already when all functions are the same, we show that it…
In this paper, we give a constructive proof of the fact that the treewidth of a graph is at most its divisorial gonality. The proof gives a polynomial time algorithm to construct a tree decomposition of width at most $k$, when an effective…
Dynamic programming on path and tree decompositions of graphs is a technique that is ubiquitous in the field of parameterized and exponential-time algorithms. However, one of its drawbacks is that the space usage is exponential in the…
We introduce new distance measures for comparing straight-line embedded graphs based on the Fr\'echet distance and the weak Fr\'echet distance. These graph distances are defined using continuous mappings and thus take the combinatorial…

In many models for large-scale computation, decomposition of the problem is key to efficient algorithms. For distance-related graph problems, it is often crucial that such a decomposition results in clusters of small diameter, while the…
We develop a novel parallel decomposition strategy for unweighted, undirected graphs, based on growing disjoint connected clusters from batches of centers progressively selected from yet uncovered nodes. With respect to similar previous…
