In deep neural networks, better results can often be obtained by increasing the complexity of previously developed basic models. However, it is unclear whether there is a way to boost performance by decreasing the complexity of such models.…
We present improved approximation algorithms for some problems in the related areas of Capacitated Network Design and Flexible Graph Connectivity. In the Cap-$k$-ECSS problem, we are given a graph $G=(V,E)$ whose edges have non-negative…
The aim of this thesis is to present an extension to the string graphs of Dixon, Duncan and Kissinger that allows the finite representation of certain infinite families of graphs and graph rewrite rules, and to demonstrate that a logic can…
This paper presents FLGC, a simple yet effective fully linear graph convolutional network for semi-supervised and unsupervised learning. Instead of using gradient descent, we train FLGC based on computing a global optimal closed-form…
We propose new succinct representations of ordinal trees, which have been studied extensively. It is known that any $n$-node static tree can be represented in $2n + o(n)$ bits and a number of operations on the tree can be supported in…
A graph class is monotone if it is closed under taking subgraphs. It is known that a monotone class defined by finitely many obstructions has bounded treewidth if and only if one of the obstructions is a so-called tripod, that is, a…
In [1], we inaugurated a new area of optimal control (OC) theory that we called "periodic fractional OC theory," which was developed to find optimal ways to periodically control a fractional dynamic system. The typical mathematical…
Boxicity of a graph $G(V,$ $E)$, denoted by $box(G)$, is the minimum integer $k$ such that $G$ can be represented as the intersection graph of axis parallel boxes in $\mathbb{R}^k$. The problem of computing boxicity is inapproximable even…
Computing the Euler genus of a graph is a fundamental problem in graph theory and topology. It has been shown to be NP-hard by [Thomassen '89] and a linear-time fixed-parameter algorithm has been obtained by [Mohar '99]. Despite extensive…
Graph condensation, which reduces the size of a large-scale graph by synthesizing a small-scale condensed graph as its substitution, has immediate benefits for various graph learning tasks. However, existing graph condensation methods rely…
Graph similarity measurement, which computes the distance/similarity between two graphs, arises in various graph-related tasks. Recent learning-based methods lack interpretability, as they directly transform interaction information between…
Mining cohesive subgraphs from a graph is a fundamental problem in graph data analysis. One notable cohesive structure is $\gamma$-quasi-clique (QC), where each vertex connects at least a fraction $\gamma$ of the other vertices inside.…
Grammar inference deals with determining (preferable simple) models/grammars consistent with a set of observations. There is a large body of research on grammar inference within the theory of formal languages. However, there is surprisingly…
In the index coding problem, introduced by Birk and Kol (INFOCOM, 1998), the goal is to broadcast an n bit word to n receivers (one bit per receiver), where the receivers have side information represented by a graph G. The objective is to…
In ECOC framework, the ternary coding strategy is widely deployed in coding process. It relabels classes with {"-1,0,1" }, where -1/1 means to assign the corresponding classes to the negative/positive group, and label 0 leads to ignore the…
In this paper, we propose GNNUnlock, the first-of-its-kind oracle-less machine learning-based attack on provably secure logic locking that can identify any desired protection logic without focusing on a specific syntactic topology. The key…
The min-rank of a graph was introduced by Haemers (1978) to bound the Shannon capacity of a graph. This parameter of a graph has recently gained much more attention from the research community after the work of Bar-Yossef et al. (2006). In…
An identifying code of a graph G is a dominating set C such that every vertex x of G is distinguished from all other vertices by the set of vertices in C that are at distance at most 1 from x. The problem of finding an identifying code of…

We study the Minimum Crossing Number problem: given an $n$-vertex graph $G$, the goal is to find a drawing of $G$ in the plane with minimum number of edge crossings. This is one of the central problems in topological graph theory, that has…
