The graph alignment problem aims to identify the vertex correspondence between two correlated graphs. Most existing studies focus on the scenario in which the two graphs share the same vertex set. However, in many real-world applications,…
While Szemer\'edi's graph regularity lemma is an indispensable tool for studying extremal problems in graph theory, using it comes with a hefty price, since a worst-case graph may only have regular partitions of tower-type size. It is thus…
This paper provides new observations on the Lov\'{a}sz $\theta$-function of graphs. These include a simple closed-form expression of that function for all strongly regular graphs, together with upper and lower bounds on that function for…
We consider a variation of Ramsey numbers introduced by Erd\H{o}s and Pach (1983), where instead of seeking complete or independent sets we only seek a $t$-homogeneous set, a vertex subset that induces a subgraph of minimum degree at least…
We propose a new proof technique that aims to be applied to the same problems as the Lov\'asz Local Lemma or the entropy-compression method. We present this approach in the context of non-repetitive colorings and we use it to improve…
Graph algorithms are widely used for decision making and knowledge discovery. To ensure their effectiveness, it is essential that their output remains stable even when subjected to small perturbations to the input because frequent output…
We prove algorithmic weak and \Szemeredi{} regularity lemmas for several classes of sparse graphs in the literature, for which only weak regularity lemmas were previously known. These include core-dense graphs, low threshold rank graphs,…
The stability number of a graph G is the cardinality of a stability system of G (that is of a stable set of maximum size of G). A graph is alpha-stable if its stability number remains the same upon both the deletion and the addition of any…
Over recent years there has been much interest in both Tur\'an and Ramsey properties of vertex ordered graphs. In this paper we initiate the study of embedding spanning structures into vertex ordered graphs. In particular, we introduce a…
The stability number of a graph G, denoted by alpha(G), is the cardinality of a maximum stable set, and mu(G) is the cardinality of a maximum matching in G. If alpha(G)+mu(G) equals its order, then G is a Konig-Egervary graph. In this paper…
Exact pattern matching in labeled graphs is the problem of searching paths of a graph $G=(V,E)$ that spell the same string as the given pattern $P[1..m]$. This basic problem can be found at the heart of more complex operations on variation…
The maximum stable set problem is a well-known NP-hard problem in combinatorial optimization, which can be formulated as the maximization of a quadratic square-free polynomial over the (Boolean) hypercube. We investigate a hierarchy of…
The Small Set Expansion Hypothesis (SSEH) is a conjecture which roughly states that it is NP-hard to distinguish between a graph with a small subset of vertices whose edge expansion is almost zero and one in which all small subsets of…
We study the lift-and-project relaxations of the stable set polytope of graphs generated by $\text{LS}_+$, the SDP lift-and-project operator devised by Lov\'{a}sz and Schrijver. Our focus is on $\ell$-minimal graphs: graphs on $3\ell$…
A subset \( C \) of the vertex set \( V \) of a graph \( \Gamma = (V,E) \) is termed an $(r,s)$-regular set if each vertex in \( C \) is adjacent to exactly \( r \) other vertices in \( C \), while each vertex not in \( C \) is adjacent to…
We determine the asymptotic behavior of the maximum subgraph density of large random graphs with a prescribed degree sequence. The result applies in particular to the Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi model, where it settles a conjecture of Hajek [IEEE…
In this paper we establish some foundations regarding sheaves of vector spaces on graphs and their invariants, such as homology groups and their limits. We then use these ideas to prove the Hanna Neumann Conjecture of the 1950's; in fact,…
In an improper colouring an edge $uv$ for which, $c(u)=c(v)$ is called a \emph{bad edge}. The notion of the \emph{chromatic completion number} of a graph $G$ denoted by $\zeta(G),$ is the maximum number of edges over all chromatic…
Given an undirected graph, the Densest-k-Subgraph problem (DkS) seeks to find a subset of k vertices such that the sum of the edge weights in the corresponding subgraph is maximized. The problem is known to be NP-hard, and is also very…
Graph parameters such as the clique number, the chromatic number, and the independence number are central in many areas, ranging from computer networks to linguistics to computational neuroscience to social networks. In particular, the…
