Graphs are naturally sparse objects that are used to study many problems involving networks, for example, distributed learning and graph signal processing. In some cases, the graph is not given, but must be learned from the problem and…

The local tree-width of a graph G=(V,E) is the function ltw^G: N -> N that associates with every natural number r the maximal tree-width of an r-neighborhood in G. Our main graph theoretic result is a decomposition theorem for graphs with…

The theorem of Dekking and Host regarding tightness around the mean of first passage percolation on the binary tree, from the root to a boundary of a ball, is generalized to a class of graphs which includes all lattices in hyperbolic spaces…

We prove the following version of the Loebl-Komlos-Sos Conjecture: For every alpha>0 there exists a number M such that for every k>M every n-vertex graph G with at least (0.5+alpha)n vertices of degree at least (1+alpha)k contains each tree…

In distance query reconstruction, we wish to reconstruct the edge set of a hidden graph by asking as few distance queries as possible to an oracle. Given two vertices $u$ and $v$, the oracle returns the shortest path distance between $u$…

We investigate a structural generalisation of treewidth we call $\mathcal{A}$-blind-treewidth where $\mathcal{A}$ denotes an annotated graph class. This width parameter is defined by evaluating only the size of those bags $B$ of…

In this paper and a companion paper, we prove that, if $m$ is sufficiently large, every graph on $m+1$ vertices that has a universal vertex and minimum degree at least $\lfloor \frac{2m}{3} \rfloor$ contains each tree $T$ with $m$ edges as…

We prove that one can perfectly pack degenerate graphs into complete or dense $n$-vertex quasirandom graphs, provided that all the degenerate graphs have maximum degree $o(\frac{n}{\log n})$, and in addition $\Omega(n)$ of them have at most…

We prove that if $T_1,\dots, T_n$ is a sequence of bounded degree trees so that $T_i$ has $i$ vertices, then $K_n$ has a decomposition into $T_1,\dots, T_n$. This shows that the tree packing conjecture of Gy\'arf\'as and Lehel from 1976…

We develop a new framework for generalizing approximation algorithms from the structural graph algorithm literature so that they apply to graphs somewhat close to that class (a scenario we expect is common when working with real-world…

We consider a generalisation of the classical Ramsey theory setting to a setting where each of the edges of the underlying host graph is coloured with a {\em set} of colours (instead of just one colour). We give bounds for monochromatic…

A classical result of Koml\'os, S\'ark\"ozy and Szemer\'edi states that every $n$-vertex graph with minimum degree at least $(1/2+ o(1))n$ contains every $n$-vertex tree with maximum degree $O(n/\log{n})$ as a subgraph, and the bounds on…

We prove algorithmic weak and \Szemeredi{} regularity lemmas for several classes of sparse graphs in the literature, for which only weak regularity lemmas were previously known. These include core-dense graphs, low threshold rank graphs,…

Let $G$ be a graph of order $n$. A path decomposition $\mathcal{P}$ of $G$ is a collection of edge-disjoint paths that covers all the edges of $G$. Let $p(G)$ denote the minimum number of paths needed in a path decomposition of $G$. Gallai…

An infinite graph is quasi-transitive if its vertex set has finitely many orbits under the action of its automorphism group. In this paper we obtain a structure theorem for locally finite quasi-transitive graphs avoiding a minor, which is…

Given an $H$-minor-free graph $G$ and an integer $k$, our main technical contribution is sampling in randomized polynomial time an induced subgraph $G'$ of $G$ and a tree decomposition of $G'$ of width $\widetilde{O}(k)$ such that for every…

We propose to study transformations on graphs, and more generally structures, by looking at how the cut-rank (as introduced by Oum) of subsets is affected when going from the input structure to the output structure. We consider…

The connected tree-width of a graph is the minimum width of a tree-decomposition whose parts induce connected subgraphs. Long cycles are examples of graphs that have small tree-width but large connected tree-width. We show that a graph has…
