The $K$-core of a graph is the unique maximum subgraph within which each vertex connects to $K$ or more other vertices. The optimal $K$-core attack problem asks to delete the minimum number of vertices from the $K$-core to induce its…
Given a graph $G = (V,E)$ and a subset $T \subseteq V$ of terminals, a \emph{Steiner tree} of $G$ is a tree that spans $T$. In the vertex-weighted Steiner tree (VST) problem, each vertex is assigned a non-negative weight, and the goal is to…
