How efficiently can we find an unknown graph using distance queries between its vertices? We assume that the unknown graph is connected, unweighted, and has bounded degree. The goal is to find every edge in the graph. This problem admits a…

Consider a $d$-uniform random hypergraph on $n$ vertices in which hyperedges are included iid so that the average degree is $n^\delta$. The projection of a hypergraph is a graph on the same $n$ vertices where an edge connects two vertices…

In this paper, we investigate three fundamental problems regarding cut complexes of graphs: their realizability, the uniqueness of graph reconstruction from them, and their algorithmic recognition. We define the parameter $m(d,n)$ as the…

We study the problem of reconstructing a hidden graph given access to a distance oracle. We design randomized algorithms for the following problems: reconstruction of a degree bounded graph with query complexity $\tilde{O}(n^{3/2})$;…

We consider the following graph reconstruction problem: given an unweighted connected graph $G = (V,E)$ with visible vertex set $V$ and an oracle which takes two vertices $u,v \in V$ and returns the shortest path distance between $u$ and…

Let $G$ be a $3$-connected ordered graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges. Let $\mathbf{p}$ be a randomly chosen mapping of these $n$ vertices to the integer range $\{1, 2,3, \ldots, 2^b\}$ for $b\ge m^2$. Let $\ell$ be the vector of $m$…

Any graph which is not vertex transitive has a proper induced subgraph which is unique due to its structure or the way of its connection to the rest of the graph. We have called such subgraph as an anchor. Using an anchor which, in fact, is…

The $\ell$-deck of a graph $G$ is the multiset of all induced subgraphs of $G$ on $\ell$ vertices. We say that a graph is reconstructible from its $\ell$-deck if no other graph has the same $\ell$-deck. In 1957, Kelly showed that every tree…

A graph is $\ell$-reconstructible if it is determined by its multiset of induced subgraphs obtained by deleting $\ell$ vertices. We prove that $3$-regular graphs are $2$-reconstructible.

The congested clique model is a message-passing model of distributed computation where the underlying communication network is the complete graph of $n$ nodes. In this paper we consider the situation where the joint input to the nodes is an…

We offer a new structural basis for the theory of 3-connected graphs, providing a unique decomposition of every such graph into parts that are either quasi 4-connected, wheels, or thickened $K_{3,m}$'s. Our construction is explicit,…

In this paper, we study a conjecture of Andries E. Brouwer from 1996 regarding the minimum number of vertices of a strongly regular graph whose removal disconnects the graph into non-singleton components. We show that strongly regular…

This paper considers the problem of inferring the structure of a network from indirect observations. Each observation (a "trace") is the unordered set of nodes which are activated along a path through the network. Since a trace does not…

We connect two seemingly unrelated problems in graph theory. Any graph $G$ has an associated neighborhood multiset $\mathscr{N}(G)= \{N(x) \mid x\in V(G)\}$ whose elements are precisely the open vertex-neighborhoods of $G$. In general there…
