Strictly-convex straight-line drawings of $3$-connected planar graphs in small area form a classical research topic in Graph Drawing. Currently, the best-known area bound for such drawings is $O(n^2) \times O(n^2)$, as shown by…
Many applications in graph theory are motivated by routing or flow problems. Among these problems is Steiner Orientation: given a mixed graph G (having directed and undirected edges) and a set T of k terminal pairs in G, is there an…
Graph partitioning schedules parallel calculations like sparse matrix-vector multiply (SpMV). We consider contiguous partitions, where the $m$ rows (or columns) of a sparse matrix with $N$ nonzeros are split into $K$ parts without…
Two graphs $G$ and $H$ are \emph{cospectral} if the adjacency matrices share the same spectrum. Constructing cospectral non-isomorphic graphs has been studied extensively for many years and various constructions are known in the literature,…
For an undirected $n$-vertex graph $G$ with non-negative edge-weights, we consider the following type of query: given two vertices $s$ and $t$ in $G$, what is the weight of a minimum $st$-cut in $G$? We solve this problem in preprocessing…
Given an $n$-vertex planar embedded digraph $G$ with non-negative edge weights and a face $f$ of $G$, Klein presented a data structure with $O(n\log n)$ space and preprocessing time which can answer any query $(u,v)$ for the shortest path…
Let G be an embedded planar undirected graph that has n vertices, m edges, and f faces but has no self-loop or multiple edge. If G is triangulated, we can encode it using {4/3}m-1 bits, improving on the best previous bound of about 1.53m…
The dual of a planar graph $G$ is a planar graph $G^*$ that has a vertex for each face of $G$ and an edge for each pair of adjacent faces of $G$. The profound relationship between a planar graph and its dual has been the algorithmic basis…
A nonplanar graph G is called almost-planar if for every edge e of G, at least one of G\e and G/e is planar. In 1990, Gubser characterized 3-connected almost-planar graphs in his dissertation. However, his proof is so long that only a small…
The $k$-cut problem asks, given a connected graph $G$ and a positive integer $k$, to find a minimum-weight set of edges whose removal splits $G$ into $k$ connected components. We give the first polynomial-time algorithm with approximation…
We give polynomial-time algorithms for obtaining hamilton circuits in random graphs, G, and random directed graphs, D. If n is finite, we assume that G or D contains a hamilton circuit. If G is an arbitrary graph containing a hamilton…
A balanced graph is a bipartite graph with no induced circuit of length 2 mod 4. These graphs arise in linear programming. We focus on graph-algebraic properties of balanced graphs to prove a complete classification of balanced Cayley…
We describe an efficient method for drawing any n-vertex simple graph G in the hyperbolic plane. Our algorithm produces greedy drawings, which support greedy geometric routing, so that a message M between any pair of vertices may be routed…

Let $D$ be a directed graph cellularly embedded in a surface together with non-negative cost on its arcs. Given any integer circulation in $D$, we study the problem of finding a minimum-cost non-negative integer circulation in $D$ that is…
A graph G is uniquely K_r-saturated if it contains no clique with r vertices and if for all edges e in the complement, G + e has a unique clique with r vertices. Previously, few examples of uniquely K_r-saturated graphs were known, and…
We described a simple algorithm running in linear time for each fixed constant $k$, that either establishes that the pathwidth of a graph $G$ is greater than $k$, or finds a path-decomposition of $G$ of width at most $O(2^{k})$. This…
Scaled relative graphs have been originally introduced in the context of convex optimization and have recently gained attention in the control systems community for the graphical analysis of nonlinear systems. Of particular interest in…
For a drawing of a labeled graph, the rotation of a vertex or crossing is the cyclic order of its incident edges, represented by the labels of their other endpoints. The extended rotation system (ERS) of the drawing is the collection of the…
We construct center-stable and center-unstable manifolds, as well as stable and unstable manifolds, for the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation with a focusing energy sub-critical nonlinearity, associated with a family of solitary waves which…
