A replacement action is a function $\mathcal{L}$ that maps each graph $H$ to a collection of graphs of size at most $|V(H)|$. Given a graph class $\mathcal{H}$, we consider a general family of graph modification problems, called…

A monitoring edge-geodetic set of a graph is a subset $M$ of its vertices such that for every edge $e$ in the graph, deleting $e$ increases the distance between at least one pair of vertices in $M$. We study the following computational…

Let $P$ be a path graph of $n$ vertices embedded in a metric space. We consider the problem of adding a new edge to $P$ to minimize the radius of the resulting graph. Previously, a similar problem for minimizing the diameter of the graph…

We investigate the estimation of the perimeter of a set by a graph cut of a random geometric graph. For $\Omega \subset D = (0,1)^d$, with $d \geq 2$, we are given $n$ random i.i.d. points on $D$ whose membership in $\Omega$ is known. We…
