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…
We present an algorithm that takes as input a graph $G$ with weights on the vertices, and computes a maximum weight independent set $S$ of $G$. If the input graph $G$ excludes a path $P_k$ on $k$ vertices as an induced subgraph, the…
Given two graphs $H$ and $G$, the Subgraph Isomorphism problem asks if $H$ is isomorphic to a subgraph of $G$. While NP-hard in general, algorithms exist for various parameterized versions of the problem: for example, the problem can be…
Given $x, y$ on an unweighted undirected graph $G$, the goal of the pathfinding problem is to find an $x$-$y$ path. In this work, we first construct a graph $G$ based on welded trees and define a pathfinding problem in the adjacency list…
We present an efficient algorithm for a problem in the interface between clustering and graph embeddings. An embedding $\varphi:G\rightarrow M$ of a graph $G$ into a 2-manifold $M$ maps the vertices in $V(G)$ to distinct points and the…
The question to enumerate all inclusion-minimal connected dominating sets in a graph of order $n$ in time significantly less than $2^n$ is an open question that was asked in many places. We answer this question affirmatively, by providing…
Given a network represented by a weighted directed graph G, we consider the problem of finding a bounded cost set of nodes S such that the influence spreading from S in G, within a given time bound, is as large as possible. The dynamic that…
Two kinds of approximation algorithms exist for the k-BALANCED PARTITIONING problem: those that are fast but compute unsatisfying approximation ratios, and those that guarantee high quality ratios but are slow. In this paper we prove that…
In the Hedge Cut problem, the edges of a graph are partitioned into groups called hedges, and the question is what is the minimum number of hedges to delete to disconnect the graph. Ghaffari, Karger, and Panigrahi [SODA 2017] showed that…
In this paper we present the first deterministic polynomial time algorithm for determining the existence of a Hamiltonian cycle and finding a Hamiltonian cycle in general graphs. Our algorithm can also solve the Hamiltonian path problem in…
We investigate the complexity of several fundamental polynomial-time solvable problems on graphs and on matrices, when the given instance has low treewidth; in the case of matrices, we consider the treewidth of the graph formed by non-zero…
Random $s$-intersection graphs have recently received considerable attention in a wide range of application areas. In such a graph, each vertex is equipped with a set of items in some random manner, and any two vertices establish an…
Predicting metro passenger flow precisely is of great importance for dynamic traffic planning. Deep learning algorithms have been widely applied due to their robust performance in modelling non-linear systems. However, traditional deep…
We propose polynomial-time algorithms that sparsify planar and bounded-genus graphs while preserving optimal or near-optimal solutions to Steiner problems. Our main contribution is a polynomial-time algorithm that, given an unweighted graph…
For a fixed graph property $\Phi$ and integer $k \geq 1$, consider the problem of counting the induced $k$-vertex subgraphs satisfying $\Phi$ in an input graph $G$. This problem can be solved by brute-force in time $O(n^{k})$. Under ETH, we…

An NP-hard graph problem may be intractable for general graphs but it could be efficiently solvable using dynamic programming for graphs with bounded width (or depth or some other structural parameter). Dynamic programming is a well-known…
Bidimensionality is the most common technique to design subexponential-time parameterized algorithms on special classes of graphs, particularly planar graphs. The core engine behind it is a combinatorial lemma of Robertson, Seymour and…
We study a well known noisy model of the graph isomorphism problem. In this model, the goal is to perfectly recover the vertex correspondence between two edge-correlated Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi random graphs, with an initial seed set of…
An independent set in a graph G is a set of pairwise non-adjacent vertices. A graph $G$ is bipartite if its vertex set can be partitioned into two independent sets. In the Odd Cycle Transversal problem, the input is a graph $G$ along with a…
