The broadcast model is widely used to describe the process of information dissemination from a single node to all nodes within an interconnected network. In this model, a graph represents the network, where vertices correspond to nodes and…
In the Telephone Broadcast problem we are given a graph $G=(V,E)$ with a designated source vertex $s\in V$. Our goal is to transmit a message, which is initially known only to $s$, to all vertices of the graph by using a process where in…
A broadcast on a connected graph is a function f that assigns each vertex v an integer f(v) with 0 <= f(v) <= ecc(v) where ecc(v) denotes the eccentricity of v. A vertex u hears a broadcasting vertex v (with f(v)>0) if u is at distance at…
Broadcasting is an information dissemination primitive where a message originates at a node (called the originator) and is passed to all other nodes in the network. Broadcasting research is motivated by efficient network design and…
We study the parameterized complexity of separating a small set of vertices from a graph by a small vertex-separator. That is, given a graph $G$ and integers $k$, $t$, the task is to find a vertex set $X$ with $|X| \le k$ and $|N(X)| \le…

A vertex set $S$ of a graph $G$ is geodetic if every vertex of $G$ lies on a shortest path between two vertices in $S$. Given a graph $G$ and $k \in \mathbb N$, the NP-hard Geodetic Set problem asks whether there is a geodetic set of size…
We revisit the classic broadcast problem, wherein we have $k$ messages, each composed of $O(\log{n})$ bits, distributed arbitrarily across a network. The objective is to broadcast these messages to all nodes in the network. In the…
Graph burning is a discrete-time process that models the propagation of information in a network. Initially, we have an undirected graph of unburned vertices. At each time step, an unburned vertex is chosen to burn; additionally, unburned…
Broadcasting concerns the dissemination of a message originating at one node of a network to all other nodes. This task is accomplished by placing a series of calls over the communication lines of the network between neighboring nodes,…
In this paper, we consider the problem of maximizing the spread of influence through a social network. Given a graph with a threshold value~$thr(v)$ attached to each vertex~$v$, the spread of influence is modeled as follows: A vertex~$v$…
The broadcasting problem concerns the efficient dissemination of information in graphs. In classical broadcasting, a single originator vertex initially has a message to be transmitted to all vertices. Every vertex which has received the…
The cyclability of a graph is the maximum integer $k$ for which every $k$ vertices lie on a cycle. The algorithmic version of the problem, given a graph $G$ and a non-negative integer $k,$ decide whether the cyclability of $G$ is at least…
The maximum modularity of a graph is a parameter widely used to describe the level of clustering or community structure in a network. Determining the maximum modularity of a graph is known to be NP-complete in general, and in practice a…
Parameterized complexity attempts to give a more fine-grained analysis of the complexity of problems: instead of measuring the running time as a function of only the input size, we analyze the running time with respect to additional…
We study networks of processes that all execute the same finite state protocol and that communicate through broadcasts. The processes are organized in a graph (a topology) and only the neighbors of a process in this graph can receive its…
