We study the parameterized and classical complexity of two related problems on undirected graphs $G=(V,E)$. In Strong Triadic Closure we aim to label the edges in $E$ as strong and weak such that at most~$k$ edges are weak and $G$ contains…
A graph is $c$-closed when every pair of nonadjacent vertices has at most $c-1$ common neighbors. In $c$-Closed Vertex Deletion, the input is a graph $G$ and an integer $k$ and we ask whether $G$ can be transformed into a $c$-closed graph…
The Graph Edit Distance (GED) is an important metric for measuring the similarity between two (labeled) graphs. It is defined as the minimum cost required to convert one graph into another through a series of (elementary) edit operations.…
This work introduces a novel algorithm for finding the connected components of a graph where the vertices and edges are grouped into sets defining a Set--Based Graph. The algorithm, under certain restrictions on those sets, has the…
We give a bi-criteria approximation algorithm for the Minimum Nonuniform Partitioning problem, recently introduced by Krauthgamer, Naor, Schwartz and Talwar (2014). In this problem, we are given a graph $G=(V,E)$ on $n$ vertices and $k$…
How do vertices exert influence in graph data? We develop a framework for edge clustering, a new method for exploratory data analysis that reveals how both vertices and edges collaboratively accomplish directed influence in graphs,…
In this study, we address the complex issue of graph clustering in signed graphs, which are characterized by positive and negative weighted edges representing attraction and repulsion among nodes, respectively. The primary objective is to…
Graph clustering, or community detection, is the task of identifying groups of closely related objects in a large network. In this paper we introduce a new community-detection framework called LambdaCC that is based on a specially weighted…
Problems of the following kind have been the focus of much recent research in the realm of parameterized complexity: Given an input graph (digraph) on $n$ vertices and a positive integer parameter $k$, find if there exist $k$ edges (arcs)…
We develop a new framework for generalizing approximation algorithms from the structural graph algorithm literature so that they apply to graphs somewhat close to that class (a scenario we expect is common when working with real-world…
The CONNECTED VERTEX COVER problem asks for a vertex cover in a graph that induces a connected subgraph. The problem is known to be fixed-parameter tractable (FPT), and is unlikely to have a polynomial sized kernel (under complexity…
Vertex splitting is a graph modification operation in which a vertex is replaced by multiple vertices such that the union of their neighborhoods equals the neighborhood of the original vertex. We introduce and study vertex splitting as a…
We study the problem of deleting a minimum cost set of vertices from a given vertex-weighted graph in such a way that the resulting graph has no induced path on three vertices. This problem is often called cluster vertex deletion in the…
Given a graph $G$ and an integer $b$, Bandwidth asks whether there exists a bijection $\pi$ from $V(G)$ to $\{1, \ldots, |V(G)|\}$ such that $\max_{\{u, v \} \in E(G)} | \pi(u) - \pi(v) | \leq b$. This is a classical NP-complete problem,…
The most commonly used method to tackle the graph partitioning problem in practice is the multilevel approach. During a coarsening phase, a multilevel graph partitioning algorithm reduces the graph size by iteratively contracting nodes and…
We consider edge modification problems towards block and strictly chordal graphs, where one is given an undirected graph $G = (V,E)$ and an integer $k \in \mathbb{N}$ and seeks to edit (add or delete) at most $k$ edges from $G$ to obtain a…
Graph signal processing has become an essential tool for analyzing data structured on irregular domains. While conventional graph shift operators (GSOs) are effective for certain tasks, they inherently lack flexibility in modeling…
