We introduce a new model of indeterminacy in graphs: instead of specifying all the edges of the graph, the input contains all triples of vertices that form a connected subgraph. In general, different (labelled) graphs may have the same set…

The problem of graph reconstruction has been studied in its various forms over the years. In particular, the Reconstruction Conjecture, proposed by Ulam and Kelly in 1942, has attracted much research attention and yet remains one of the…

Graph reconstruction can efficiently detect the underlying topology of massive networks such as the Internet. Given a query oracle and a set of nodes, the goal is to obtain the edge set by performing as few queries as possible. An algorithm…

Node-connectivity augmentation is a fundamental network design problem. We are given a $k$-node connected graph $G$ together with an additional set of links, and the goal is to add a cheap subset of links to $G$ to make it $(k+1)$-node…

Graphlets are subgraphs rooted at a fixed vertex. The number of occurrences of graphlets aligned to a particular vertex, called graphlet degree sequence (gds), gives a topological description of the surrounding of the analyzed vertex.…

This paper addresses the problem of sparse recovery with graph constraints in the sense that we can take additive measurements over nodes only if they induce a connected subgraph. We provide explicit measurement constructions for several…

The complexity of the maximum common connected subgraph problem in partial $k$-trees is still not fully understood. Polynomial-time solutions are known for degree-bounded outerplanar graphs, a subclass of the partial $2$-trees. On the other…

A graph is reconstructible if it is determined up to isomorphism by the multiset of its proper induced subgraphs. The reconstruction conjecture postulates that every graph of order at least 3 is reconstructible. We show that interval graphs…

The $k$-deck of a graph is the multiset of its subgraphs induced by $k$ vertices. A graph or graph property is $l$-reconstructible if it is determined by the deck of subgraphs obtained by deleting $l$ vertices. We show that the degree list…

In the Graph Reconstruction (GR) problem, the goal is to recover a hidden graph by utilizing some oracle that provides limited access to the structure of the graph. The interest is in characterizing how strong different oracles are when the…
