A topological graph is a graph drawn in the plane. A topological graph is $k$-plane, $k>0$, if each edge is crossed at most $k$ times. We study the problem of partitioning the edges of a $k$-plane graph such that each partite set forms a…
Graph G is the square of graph H if two vertices x, y have an edge in G if and only if x, y are of distance at most two in H. Given H it is easy to compute its square H2, however Motwani and Sudan proved that it is NP-complete to determine…
Graphs have been widely used in real-world applications, in which investigating relations between vertices is an important task. In this paper, we study the problem of generating the k-hop-constrained s-t simple path graph, i.e., the…
Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a family of edge-colored graphs. A $t$-edge colored graph $G$ is $(\mathcal{C}, t)$-saturated if $G$ does not contain any graph in $\mathcal{C}$ but the addition of any edge in any color in $[t]$ creates a copy of some…
The Tree Augmentation Problem (TAP) is: given a connected graph $G=(V,{\cal E})$ and an edge set $E$ on $V$ find a minimum size subset of edges $F \subseteq E$ such that $(V,{\cal E} \cup F)$ is $2$-edge-connected. In the conference version…
We define the following parameter of connected graphs. For a given graph $G$ we place one agent in each vertex of $G$. Every pair of agents sharing a common edge is declared to be acquainted. In each round we choose some matching of $G$…
Temporal graphs are graphs whose edges are only present at certain points in time. Reachability in these graphs relies on temporal paths, where edges are traversed chronologically. A temporal graph that offers all-pairs reachability is said…
Brain graph super-resolution (SR) is an under-explored yet highly relevant task in network neuroscience. It circumvents the need for costly and time-consuming medical imaging data collection, preparation, and processing. Current SR methods…
The Straightness is a measure designed to characterize a pair of vertices in a spatial graph. It is defined as the ratio of the Euclidean distance to the graph distance between these vertices. It is often used as an average, for instance to…
For a graph $G$ and for two distinct vertices $u$ and $v$, let $\kappa(u,v)$ be the maximum number of vertex-disjoint paths joining $u$ and $v$ in $G$. The average connectivity matrix of an $n$-vertex connected graph $G$, written…
The vertex cover problem is a fundamental and widely studied combinatorial optimization problem. It is known that its standard linear programming relaxation is integral for bipartite graphs and half-integral for general graphs. As a…
In the Partially Embedded Planarity problem, we are given a graph $G$ together with a topological drawing of a subgraph $H$ of $G$. The task is to decide whether the drawing can be extended to a drawing of the whole graph such that no two…
Given a set of obstacles and two points, is there a path between the two points that does not cross more than $k$ different obstacles? This is a fundamental problem that has undergone a tremendous amount of work. It is known to be NP-hard,…
Given a directed graph $G$ and a pair of nodes $s$ and $t$, an $s$-$t$ bridge of $G$ is an edge whose removal breaks all $s$-$t$ paths of $G$. Similarly, an $s$-$t$ articulation point of $G$ is a node whose removal breaks all $s$-$t$ paths…
The basic goal of survivable network design is to build cheap networks that guarantee the connectivity of certain pairs of nodes despite the failure of a few edges or nodes. A celebrated result by Jain [Combinatorica'01] provides a…
A Gauss diagram (or, more generally, a chord diagram) consists of a circle and some chords inside it. Gauss diagrams are a well-established tool in the study of topology of knots and of planar and spherical curves. Not every Gauss diagram…
Rigidity theory studies the properties of graphs that can have rigid embeddings in a euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$ or on a sphere and which in addition satisfy certain edge length constraints. One of the major open problems in this field…
We give the analysis of the computational complexity of coalition structure generation over graphs. Given an undirected graph G = (N,E) and a valuation function v : P(N) \to R over the subsets of nodes, the problem is to find a partition of…
A matching is a set of edges in a graph with no common endpoint. A matching M is called acyclic if the induced subgraph on the endpoints of the edges in M is acyclic. Given a graph G and an integer k, Acyclic Matching Problem seeks for an…
