For a graph $G=(V,E)$, its exact-distance square, $G^{[\sharp 2]}$, is the graph with vertex set $V$ and with an edge between vertices $x$ and $y$ if and only if $x$ and $y$ have distance (exactly) $2$ in $G$. The graph $G$ is an…

Finding an optimal assignment between two sets of objects is a fundamental problem arising in many applications, including the matching of `bag-of-words' representations in natural language processing and computer vision. Solving the…
A matching in a bipartite graph with parts X and Y is called envy-free if no unmatched vertex in X is a adjacent to a matched vertex in Y. Every perfect matching is envy-free, but envy-free matchings exist even when perfect matchings do…
The VertexCover problem is proven to be computationally hard in different ways: It is NP-complete to find an optimal solution and even NP-hard to find an approximation with reasonable factors. In contrast, recent experiments suggest that on…
