A linear arrangement is a mapping $\pi$ from the $n$ vertices of a graph $G$ to $n$ distinct consecutive integers. Linear arrangements can be represented by drawing the vertices along a horizontal line and drawing the edges as semicircles…
We propose a new arrangement problem on directed graphs, Maximum Directed Linear Arrangement (MaxDLA). This is a directed variant of a similar problem for undirected graphs, in which however one seeks maximum and not minimum; this problem…
The Minimum Linear Arrangement problem (MLA) consists of finding a mapping $\pi$ from vertices of a graph to distinct integers that minimizes $\sum_{\{u,v\}\in E}|\pi(u) - \pi(v)|$. In that setting, vertices are often assumed to lie on a…
In the well-known Minimum Linear Arrangement problem (MinLA), the goal is to arrange the nodes of an undirected graph into a permutation so that the total stretch of the edges is minimized. This paper studies an online (learning) variant of…
In various research papers, such as [2], one will find the claim that the minLA is optimally solvable on outerplanar graphs, with a reference to [1]. However, the problem solved in that publication, which we refer to as the planar minimum…
We study the imbalance problem on complete bipartite graphs. The imbalance problem is a graph layout problem and is known to be NP-complete. Graph layout problems find their applications in the optimization of networks for parallel computer…
A linear arrangement (LA) is an assignment of distinct integers to the vertices of a graph. The cost of an LA is the sum of lengths of the edges of the graph, where the length of an edge is defined as the absolute value of the difference of…
We present a linear time algorithm for the minimum linear arrangement problem on proper interval graphs. The obtained ordering is a 4-approximation for general interval graphs
The maximum common subtree isomorphism problem asks for the largest possible isomorphism between subtrees of two given input trees. This problem is a natural restriction of the maximum common subgraph problem, which is ${\sf NP}$-hard in…
In a temporal graph the edge set dynamically changes over time according to a set of time-labels associated with each edge that indicates at which time-steps the edge is available. Two vertices are connected if there is a path connecting…
A maximum priority matching is a matching in an undirected graph that maximizes a priority score defined with respect to given vertex priorities. An earlier paper showed how to find maximum priority matchings in unweighted graphs. This…
We consider the problem of finding all allowed edges in a bipartite graph $G=(V,E)$, i.e., all edges that are included in some maximum matching. We show that given any maximum matching in the graph, it is possible to perform this…
An L(2,1)-labeling of a graph $G$ is an assignment $f$ from the vertex set $V(G)$ to the set of nonnegative integers such that $|f(x)-f(y)|\ge 2$ if $x$ and $y$ are adjacent and $|f(x)-f(y)|\ge 1$ if $x$ and $y$ are at distance 2, for all…
The {\sc Directed Maximum Leaf Out-Branching} problem is to find an out-branching (i.e. a rooted oriented spanning tree) in a given digraph with the maximum number of leaves. In this paper, we improve known parameterized algorithms and…
We present linear time {\it in-place} algorithms for several basic and fundamental graph problems including the well-known graph search methods (like depth-first search, breadth-first search, maximum cardinality search), connectivity…
The maximum/minimum bisection problems are, given an edge-weighted graph, to find a bipartition of the vertex set into two sets whose sizes differ by at most one, such that the total weight of edges between the two sets is…
Let $L$ be a set of $n$ lines in the plane, not necessarily in general position. We present an efficient algorithm for finding all the vertices of the arrangement $A(L)$ of maximum level, where the level of a vertex $v$ is the number of…
Recently, a new vector encoding, Ordered Leaf Attachment (OLA), was introduced that represents $n$-leaf phylogenetic trees as $n-1$ length integer vectors by recording the placement location of each leaf. Both encoding and decoding of trees…
The $\sigma$-irregularity index of a graph is defined as the sum of squared degree differences over all edges and provides a sensitive measure of structural heterogeneity. In this paper, we study the problem of maximizing $\sigma(T)$ among…
We present the first near optimal approximation schemes for the maximum weighted (uncapacitated or capacitated) $b$--matching problems for non-bipartite graphs that run in time (near) linear in the number of edges. For any…
