Ordered matchings, defined as graphs with linearly ordered vertices, where each vertex is connected to exactly one edge, play a crucial role in the area of ordered graphs and their homomorphisms. Therefore, we consider related problems from…

In 2011 Musiker, Schiffler and Williams obtained expansion formulae for cluster algebras from orientable surfaces. For singly and doubly notched arcs these formulae required the notion of $\gamma$-symmetric perfect matchings and…

We show how to chain maximal exact matches (MEMs) between a query string $Q$ and a labeled directed acyclic graph (DAG) $G=(V,E)$ to solve the longest common subsequence (LCS) problem between $Q$ and $G$. We obtain our result via a new…

This thesis studies skein relations in cluster algebras arising from punctured surfaces. We introduce skein-type identities expressing cluster variables associated with incompatible curves on a surface in terms of cluster variables…

This paper pursues an investigation on groups equipped with an $L$-ordered relation, where $L$ is a fixed complete complete Heyting algebra. First, by the concept of join and meet on an $L$-ordered set, the notion of an $L$-lattice is…

We algorithmically characterize the maximal contact number problem for finite congruent lattice sphere packings in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and show that in $\mathbb{R}^3$ this problem is equivalent to determining the maximal coordination of a…

We study the complexity of proving that a sparse random regular graph on an odd number of vertices does not have a perfect matching, and related problems involving each vertex being matched some pre-specified number of times. We show that…

We consider the selective graph coloring problem, which is a generalization of the classical graph coloring problem. Given a graph together with a partition of its vertex set into clusters, we want to choose exactly one vertex per cluster…

Recently, the saturation problem of $0$-$1$ matrices gained a lot of attention. This problem can be regarded as a saturation problem of ordered bipartite graphs. Motivated by this, we initiate the study of the saturation problem of ordered…

We study the perfect matching lattice of a matching covered graph $G$, generated by the incidence vectors of its perfect matchings. Building on results of Lov\'asz and de Carvalho, Lucchesi, and Murty, we give a polynomial-time algorithm…

Dyck paths categories are introduced as a combinatorial model of the category of representations of quivers of Dynkin type An. In particular, it is proved that there is a bijection between some Dyck paths and perfect matchings of some snake…

We consider the ideal orientation problem in planar graphs. In this problem, we are given an undirected graph $G$ with positive edge lengths and $k$ pairs of distinct vertices $(s_1, t_1), \dots, (s_k, t_k)$ called terminals, and we want to…

Let M(n,k,r,s) be the number of ordered paths in the plane, with unit steps E or N, that intersect k times in which the first path ends at the point (r,n-r) and the second path ends at the point (s,n-s). Our main object of study in this…

In a graph, a perfect matching cut is an edge cut that is a perfect matching. Perfect Matching Cut (PMC) is the problem of deciding whether a given graph has a perfect matching cut, and is known to be NP-complete. We revisit the problem and…

Let $G$ be a connected graph with vertex set $V(G)=\{v_1,v_2,...,v_{\nu}\}$, which may have multiple edges but have no loops, and $2\leq d_G(v_i)\leq 3$ for $i=1,2,...,\nu$, where $d_G(v)$ denotes the degree of vertex $v$ of $G$. We show…
