An oriented graph is called $k$-anti-traceable if the subdigraph induced by every subset with $k$ vertices has a hamiltonian anti-directed path. In this paper, we consider an anti-traceability conjecture. In particular, we confirm this…
We prove that there exists a function $f:\mathbb{N}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ such that every directed graph $G$ contains either $k$ directed odd cycles where every vertex of $G$ is contained in at most two of them, or a set of at most $f(k)$…
A $k$-fault-tolerant connectivity preserver of a directed $n$-vertex graph $G$ is a subgraph $H$ such that, for any edge set $F \subseteq E(G)$ of size $|F| \le k$, the strongly connected components of $G - F$ and $H - F$ are the same.…
In some applications of matching, the structural or hierarchical properties of the two graphs being aligned must be maintained. The hierarchical properties are induced by the direction of the edges in the two directed graphs. These…
Assignment of one of the two possible directions to every edge of an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ is called an orientation of $G$. The resulting directed graph is denoted by $\overrightarrow{G}$. A strong orientation is one in which every…
In 1967, Katona and Szemer\'{e}di showed that no undirected graph with $n$ vertices and fewer than $\frac{n}{2}\log_2\frac{n}{2}$ edges admits an orientation of diameter two. In 1978, Chv\'atal and Thomassen revealed the complexity of…
We consider the fundamental problems of determining the rooted and global edge and vertex connectivities (and computing the corresponding cuts) in directed graphs. For rooted (and hence also global) edge connectivity with small integer…
For a graph $G$ with at least two vertices, the maximum local edge-connectivity of $G$ is the maximum number of edge-disjoint $(u,v)$-paths over all distinct pairs of vertices $(u,v)$ in $G$. Stiebitz and Toft (2018) proved a Brooks-type…
In this paper we extend the known results of analytic connectivity to non-uniform hypergraphs. We prove a modified Cheeger's inequality and also give a bound on analytic connectivity with respect to the degree sequence and diameter of a…
Given an undirected graph, one can assign directions to each of the edges of the graph, thus orienting the graph. To be as egalitarian as possible, one may wish to find an orientation such that no vertex is unfairly hit with too many arcs…
We present time-efficient distributed algorithms for decomposing graphs with large edge or vertex connectivity into multiple spanning or dominating trees, respectively. As their primary applications, these decompositions allow us to achieve…
We consider connectivity problems with orientation constraints. Given a directed graph $D$ and a collection of ordered node pairs $P$ let $P[D]=\{(u,v) \in P: D {contains a} uv{-path}}$. In the {\sf Steiner Forest Orientation} problem we…
The decomposition of undirected graphs simplifies complex problems by breaking them into solvable subgraphs, following the philosophy of divide and conquer. This paper investigates the relationship between atom decomposition and the maximum…
Building on previous work by Cameron et al. in [3], we give a recurrence for computing the number of acyclic orientations of complete $k$-partite graphs, which can be implemented to obtain a dynamic programming algorithm running in time…
The P\'osa--Seymour conjecture determines the minimum degree threshold for forcing the $k$th power of a Hamilton cycle in a graph. After numerous partial results, Koml\'os, S\'ark\"ozy and Szemer\'edi proved the conjecture for sufficiently…
We investigate structural and algorithmic advantages of a directed version of the well-researched class of distance-hereditary graphs. Since the previously defined distance-hereditary digraphs do not permit a recursive structure, we define…
A circular-arc hypergraph $H$ is a hypergraph admitting an arc ordering, that is, a circular ordering of the vertex set $V(H)$ such that every hyperedge is an arc of consecutive vertices. An arc ordering is tight if, for any two hyperedges…
A sharp asymptotic formula for the number of strongly connected digraphs on $n$ labelled vertices with $m$ arcs, under a condition $m-n\to\infty$, $m=O(n)$, is obtained; this solves a problem posed by Wright back in $1977$. Our formula is a…
We study the half-integral $k$-Directed Disjoint Paths Problem ($\tfrac12$kDDPP) in highly strongly connected digraphs. The integral kDDPP is NP-complete even when restricted to instances where $k=2$, and the input graph is $L$-strongly…
Given an undirected graph G, the edge orientation problem asks for assigning a direction to each edge to convert G into a directed graph. The aim is to minimize the maximum out degree of a vertex in the resulting directed graph. This…
