Hidden graphs are flexible abstractions that are composed of a set of known vertices (nodes), whereas the set of edges are not known in advance. To uncover the set of edges, multiple edge probing queries must be executed by evaluating a…
Finding the densest subgraph (DS) from a graph is a fundamental problem in graph databases. The DS obtained, which reveals closely related entities, has been found to be useful in various application domains such as e-commerce, social…
Let $t$ be a positive real number. A graph is called $t$-tough if the removal of any vertex set $S$ that disconnects the graph leaves at most $|S|/t$ components. The toughness of a graph is the largest $t$ for which the graph is $t$-tough.…
Given a graph $G = (V, E)$ and an integer $k$, the Minimum Membership Dominating Set problem asks to compute a set $S \subseteq V$ such that for each $v \in V$, $1 \leq |N[v] \cap S| \leq k$. The problem is known to be NP-complete even on…
This paper is related to the problem of finding the maximal quasi-bicliques in a bipartite graph (bigraph). A quasi-biclique in the bigraph is its "almost" complete subgraph. The relaxation of completeness can be understood variously; here,…
We consider the problem of finding a subgraph of a given graph minimizing the sum of given functions at vertices evaluated at their subgraph degrees. While the problem is NP-hard already for bipartite graphs when the functions are convex on…
Given a graph $G=(V,E)$, the dominating set problem asks for a minimum subset of vertices $D\subseteq V$ such that every vertex $u\in V\setminus D$ is adjacent to at least one vertex $v\in D$. That is, the set $D$ satisfies the condition…

In a network, a $k$-plex represents a subset of $n$ vertices where the degree of each vertex in the subnetwork induced by this subset is at least $n-k$. The maximum edge-weight $k$-plex partitioning problem (Max-EkPP) is to find the…
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…
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 2-packing set for an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ is a subset $\mathcal{S} \subset V$ such that any two vertices $v_1,v_2 \in \mathcal{S}$ have no common neighbors. Finding a 2-packing set of maximum cardinality is a NP-hard problem. We…
A permutation graph can be defined as an intersection graph of segments whose endpoints lie on two parallel lines $l_1$ and $l_2$, one on each. A bipartite permutation graph is a permutation graph which is bipartite. In this paper we study…
