Given an undirected graph $G(V, E)$, it is well known that partitioning a graph $G$ into $q$ connected subgraphs of equal or specificed sizes is in general NP-hard problem. On the other hand, it has been shown that the q-partition problem…

The graph isomorphism (GI) problem is the computational problem of finding a permutation of vertices of a given graph $G_1$ that transforms $G_1$ to another given graph $G_2$ and preserves the adjacency. In this work, we propose a quantum…

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…

We consider the algorithmic decision problem that takes as input an $n$-vertex $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$ with minimum codegree at least $m-c$ and decides whether it has a matching of size $m$. We show that this decision problem is fixed…

The Graph Isomorphism (GI) problem is a theoretically interesting problem because it has not been proven to be in P nor to be NP-complete. Babai made a breakthrough in 2015 when announcing a quasipolynomial time algorithm for GI problem.…
