We design an algorithm that generates an $n$-vertex unlabeled chordal graph uniformly at random in expected polynomial time. Along the way, we develop the following two results: (1) an $\mathsf{FPT}$ algorithm for counting and sampling…
We present a polynomial-space algorithm that computes the number independent sets of any input graph in time $O(1.1387^n)$ for graphs with maximum degree 3 and in time $O(1.2355^n)$ for general graphs, where n is the number of vertices.…
Chordal graphs form one of the most studied graph classes. Several graph problems that are NP-hard in general become solvable in polynomial time on chordal graphs, whereas many others remain NP-hard. For a large group of problems among the…
It is known that any chordal graph on $n$ vertices can be represented as the intersection of $n$ subtrees in a tree on $n$ nodes. This fact is recently used in [2] to generate random chordal graphs on $n$ vertices by generating $n$ subtrees…
We consider the problem of devising algorithms to count exactly the number of independent sets of a graph G . We show that there is a polynomial time algorithm for this problem when G is restricted to the class of strongly orderable graphs,…
Counting the number of triangles in a graph has many important applications in network analysis. Several frequently computed metrics like the clustering coefficient and the transitivity ratio need to count the number of triangles in the…
We consider the problem of counting the number of vertices reachable from each vertex in a digraph $G$, which is equal to computing all the out-degrees of the transitive closure of $G$. The current (theoretically) fastest algorithms run in…
In the graph label selection problem, one is given an $n$-vertex graph and a budget $k$, and seeks to select $k$ vertices whose labels enable accurate prediction of the labels on the remaining vertices. This problem formalizes distilling a…
We give a $(1.796+\epsilon)$-approximation for the minimum sum coloring problem on chordal graphs, improving over the previous 3.591-approximation by Gandhi et al. [2005]. To do so, we also design the first polynomial-time approximation…
Given $t\geq 2$ and $0\leq k\leq t$, we prove that the number of labelled $k$-connected chordal graphs with $n$ vertices and tree-width at most $t$ is asymptotically $c n^{-5/2} \gamma^n n!$, as $n\to\infty$, for some constants $c,\gamma…
The notion of $12$-representable graphs was introduced as a variant of a well-known class of word-representable graphs. Recently, these graphs were shown to be equivalent to the complements of simple-triangle graphs. This indicates that a…
The problem of efficiently coloring $3$-colorable graphs with few colors has received much attention on both the algorithmic and inapproximability fronts. We consider exponential time approximations, in which given a parameter $r$, we aim…
In the minimum planarization problem, given some $n$-vertex graph, the goal is to find a set of vertices of minimum cardinality whose removal leaves a planar graph. This is a fundamental problem in topological graph theory. We present a…
The concept of Roman domination has recently been studied concerning enumerating and counting (WG 2022). It has been shown that minimal Roman dominating functions can be enumerated with polynomial delay, contrasting what is known about…
We present a simple parallel algorithm to test chordality of graphs which is based on the parallel Lexicographical Breadth-First Search algorithm. In total, the algorithm takes time O(N ) on N-threads machine and it performs work O(N 2 ) ,…
We study the neighborhood polynomial and the complexity of its computation for chordal graphs. The neighborhood polynomial of a graph is the generating function of subsets of its vertices that have a common neighbor. We introduce a…
Given a graph $G$, and terminal vertices $s$ and $t$, the TRACKING PATHS problem asks to compute a minimum number of vertices to be marked as trackers, such that the sequence of trackers encountered in each s-t path is unique. TRACKING…
In this paper, we present two main results. First, by only one conjecture (Conjecture 2.9) for recognizing a vertex symmetric graph, which is the hardest task for our problem, we construct an algorithm for finding an isomorphism between two…
The index coding problem is concerned with broadcasting encoded information to a collection of receivers in a way that enables each receiver to discover its required data based on its side information, which comprises the data required by…
We determine the number of labelled chordal planar graphs with $n$ vertices, which is asymptotically $c_1\cdot n^{-5/2} \gamma^n n!$ for a constant $c_1>0$ and $\gamma \approx 11.89235$. We also determine the number of rooted simple chordal…
