Graph matching can be formalized as a combinatorial optimization problem, where there are corresponding relationships between pairs of nodes that can be represented as edges. This problem becomes challenging when there are potential…
In the context of integrable systems on quad-graphs, the boundary consistency around a half of a rhombic dodecahedron, as a companion notion to the three-dimensional consistency around a cube, was introduced as a criterion for defining…
In this paper, the problem of matching pairs of correlated random graphs with multi-valued edge attributes is considered. Graph matching problems of this nature arise in several settings of practical interest including social network…
Finding, counting and/or listing triangles (three vertices with three edges) in large graphs are natural fundamental problems, which received recently much attention because of their importance in complex network analysis. We provide here a…
Let $H$ be a $3$-partite $3$-uniform hypergraph, i.e. a $3$-uniform hypergraph such that every edge intersects every partition class in exactly one vertex, with each partition class of size $n$. We determine a Dirac-type vertex degree…
A digraph is connected-homogeneous if any isomorphism between finite connected induced subdigraphs extends to an automorphism of the digraph. We consider locally-finite connected-homogeneous digraphs with more than one end. In the case that…
We establish a connection between problems studied in rigidity theory and matroids arising from linear algebraic constructions like tensor products and symmetric products. A special case of this correspondence identifies the problem of…
A (k, g) graph is a graph with regular degree k and girth g. The cage problem refers to finding the smallest (k, g) graph. The (3, 14) cage problem is known to be unresolved. In 2002, Exoo found a (3, 14) record graph with order 384. The…
This paper deals with the problem of graph matching or network alignment for Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi graphs, which can be viewed as a noisy average-case version of the graph isomorphism problem. Let $G$ and $G'$ be $G(n, p)$ Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi…
In this study we consider the problem of triangulated graphs. Precisely we give a necessary and sufficient condition for a graph to be triangulated. This give an alternative characterization of triangulated graphs. Our method is based on…
Extending the work of Godsil and others, we investigate the notion of the inverse of a graph (specifically, of bipartite graphs with a unique perfect matching). We provide a concise necessary and sufficient condition for the invertibility…
Flip graphs of combinatorial and geometric objects are at the heart of many deep structural insights and connections between different branches of discrete mathematics and computer science. They also provide a natural framework for the…
An \textit{\(m \times n\) grid graph} is the induced subgraph of the square lattice whose vertex set consists of all integer grid points \(\{(i,j) : 0 \leq i < m,\ 0 \leq j < n\}\). Let $H$ and $K$ be Hamiltonian cycles in an $m \times n$…
We describe optimal robust algorithms for finding a triangle and the unweighted girth in a unit disk graph, as well as finding a triangle in a transmission graph.In the robust setting, the input is not given as a set of sites in the plane,…
Matchings and coverings are central topics in graph theory. The close relationship between these two has been key to many fundamental algorithmic and polyhedral results. For mixed graphs, the notion of matching forest was proposed as a…
The alignment of two similar graphs from different domains is a well-studied problem. In many practical usages, there is no reliable information or labels over the vertices or edges, leaving structural similarity as the only information…
We exactly settle the complexity of graph realization, graph rigidity, and graph global rigidity as applied to three types of graphs: "globally noncrossing" graphs, which avoid crossings in all of their configurations; matchstick graphs,…
The $k$-cut complex was recently introduced by Bayer et al. as a generalization of earlier work of Fr{\"o}berg (1990) and Eagon and Reiner (1998), and was shown to be shellable for several classes of graphs. In this article, we prove that…
In this paper we investigate the connectedness and the isomorphism problems for zig-zag products of two graphs. A sufficient condition for the zig-zag product of two graphs to be connected is provided, reducing to the study of the…
In this article we consider the graph alignment problem from the perspective of high-dimensional statistics: we aim to estimate an unknown permutation $\pi^*$ from the observation of two correlated random adjacency matrices $A_1$, $A_2$. We…
