We present a deterministic fully-dynamic data structure for maintaining information about the cut-vertices in a graph; i.e. the vertices whose removal would disconnect the graph. Our data structure supports insertion and deletion of edges,…
We introduce three new cut tree structures of graphs $G$ in which the vertex set of the tree is a partition of $V(G)$ and contractions of tree vertices satisfy sparsification requirements that preserve various types of cuts. Recently,…
In a recent work [Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 108, 3838 (2011)], Schneider et al. proposed a new measure for network robustness and investigated optimal networks with respect to this quantity. For networks with a power-law degree…
Expander decompositions of graphs have significantly advanced the understanding of many classical graph problems and led to numerous fundamental theoretical results. However, their adoption in practice has been hindered due to their…
We introduce and study the Separation Problem for infinite graphs, which involves determining whether a connected graph splits into at least two infinite connected components after the removal of a given finite set of edges. We prove that…
A contraction sequence of a graph consists of iteratively merging two of its vertices until only one vertex remains. The recently introduced twin-width graph invariant is based on contraction sequences. More precisely, if one puts red edges…
The graph-theoretical task of determining most likely inter-community edges based on disconnected subgraphs' intra-community connectivity is proposed. An algorithm is developed for this edge augmentation task, based on elevating the zero…
The operation of transforming one spanning tree into another by replacing an edge has been considered widely, both for general and planar straight-line graphs. For the latter, several variants have been studied (e.g., edge slides and edge…
In a strongly connected graph $G = (V,E)$, a cut arc (also called strong bridge) is an arc $e \in E$ whose removal makes the graph no longer strongly connected. Equivalently, there exist $u,v \in V$, such that all $u$-$v$ walks contain $e$.…
Let $W(G)$ be the Wiener index of a graph $G$. We say that a vertex $v \in V(G)$ is a \v{S}olt\'es vertex in $G$ if $W(G - v) = W(G)$, i.e. the Wiener index does not change if the vertex $v$ is removed. In 1991, \v{S}olt\'es posed the…
To each graph on $n$ vertices there is an associated subspace of the $n \times n$ matrices called the operator system of the graph. We prove that two graphs are isomorphic if and only if their corresponding operator systems are unitally…
We consider the problem of self-healing in peer-to-peer networks that are under repeated attack by an omniscient adversary. We assume that, over a sequence of rounds, an adversary either inserts a node with arbitrary connections or deletes…
In this paper we discuss an operation on halving edges graph that we call fission. Fission replaces each point in a given configuration with a small cluster of k points. The operation interacts nicely with halving edges, so we examine its…
Motivated by applications in graph drawing and information visualization, we examine the planar split thickness of a graph, that is, the smallest $k$ such that the graph is $k$-splittable into a planar graph. A $k$-split operation…
Flip graphs of combinatorial and geometric objects are at the heart of many deep structural insights and connections between different branches of discrete mathematics and computer science. They also provide a natural framework for the…
A method for considering a weighted directed graph with an accuracy of up to a given partition of the set of vertices is proposed. The resulting digraph (the splitting graph) does not contain arcs inside each partition element, and the arcs…
A disconnected cut of a connected graph is a vertex cut that itself also induces a disconnected subgraph. The decision problem whether a graph has a disconnected cut is called Disconnected Cut. This problem is closely related to several…
In this paper we study lift-and-project polyhedral operators defined by Lov?asz and Schrijver and Balas, Ceria and Cornu?ejols on the clique relaxation of the stable set polytope of web graphs. We compute the disjunctive rank of all webs…
In this paper, we present an on-line fully dynamic algorithm for maintaining strongly connected component of a directed graph in a shared memory architecture. The edges and vertices are added or deleted concurrently by fixed number of…
An identifying code $C$ of a graph $G$ is a dominating set of $G$ such that any two distinct vertices of $G$ have distinct closed neighbourhoods within $C$. These codes have been widely studied for over two decades. We give an improvement…
