Let $S$ be a set of $n$ points in a polygon $P$ with $m$ vertices. The geodesic unit-disk graph $G(S)$ induced by $S$ has vertex set $S$ and contains an edge between two vertices whenever their geodesic distance in $P$ is at most one. In…

We consider a problem of localizing a path-signal that evolves over time on a graph. A path-signal can be viewed as the trajectory of a moving agent on a graph in several consecutive time points. Combining dynamic programming and graph…

We present several results in the CONGEST model on round complexity for Replacement Paths (RPaths), Minimum Weight Cycle (MWC), and All Nodes Shortest Cycles (ANSC). We study these fundamental problems in both directed and undirected…

This paper investigates two types of graph queries: {\em single source distance (SSD)} queries and {\em single source shortest path (SSSP)} queries. Given a node $v$ in a graph $G$, an SSD query from $v$ asks for the distance from $v$ to…

Given an undirected graph and two disjoint vertex pairs $s_1,t_1$ and $s_2,t_2$, the Shortest two disjoint paths problem (S2DP) asks for the minimum total length of two vertex disjoint paths connecting $s_1$ with $t_1$, and $s_2$ with…

We present an interactive framework that, given a membership test for a graph class $\mathcal{G}$ and a number $k$, finds and tests unavoidable sets for the class of graphs in $\mathcal{G}$ of path-width at most $k$. We put special emphasis…

We study separating systems of the edges of a graph where each member of the separating system is a path. We conjecture that every $n$-vertex graph admits a separating path system of size $O(n)$ and prove this in certain interesting special…

The accurate segmentation and tracking of cells in microscopy image sequences is an important task in biomedical research, e.g., for studying the development of tissues, organs or entire organisms. However, the segmentation of touching…

It is proven that the connected pathwidth of any graph $G$ is at most $2\cdot\pw(G)+1$, where $\pw(G)$ is the pathwidth of $G$. The method is constructive, i.e. it yields an efficient algorithm that for a given path decomposition of width…

Map matching is a common task when analysing GPS tracks, such as vehicle trajectories. The goal is to match a recorded noisy polygonal curve to a path on the map, usually represented as a geometric graph. The Fr\'echet distance is a…
