We study the complexity of graph modification problems with respect to homomorphism-based colouring properties of edge-coloured graphs. A homomorphism from edge-coloured graph $G$ to edge-coloured graph $H$ is a vertex-mapping from $G$ to…
In a (parameterized) graph edge modification problem, we are given a graph $G$, an integer $k$ and a (usually well-structured) class of graphs $\mathcal{G}$, and ask whether it is possible to transform $G$ into a graph $G' \in \mathcal{G}$…
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…
Unit disk graphs are intersection graphs of circles of unit radius in the plane. We present simple and provably good heuristics for a number of classical NP-hard optimization problems on unit disk graphs. The problems considered include…
Graph modification problems are computational tasks where the goal is to change an input graph $G$ using operations from a fixed set, in order to make the resulting graph satisfy a target property, which usually entails membership to a…

A mixed graph contains (undirected) edges as well as (directed) arcs, thus generalizing undirected and directed graphs. A proper coloring $c$ of a mixed graph $G$ assigns a positive integer to each vertex such that $c(u)\neq c(v)$ for every…
