Subgraph queries also known as subgraph isomorphism search is a fundamental problem in querying graph-like structured data. It consists to enumerate the subgraphs of a data graph that match a query graph. This problem arises in many…
We consider the fine-grained complexity of sparse graph problems that currently have $\tilde{O}(mn)$ time algorithms, where m is the number of edges and n is the number of vertices in the input graph. This class includes several important…

Dense subgraphs of sparse graphs (communities), which appear in most real-world complex networks, play an important role in many contexts. Computing them however is generally expensive. We propose here a measure of similarities between…
We consider two optimization problems related to finding dense subgraphs. The densest at-least-k-subgraph problem (DalkS) is to find an induced subgraph of highest average degree among all subgraphs with at least k vertices, and the densest…
