For an integer $d\geq 1$, the $d$-Cut problem is that of deciding whether a graph has an edge cut in which each vertex is adjacent to at most $d$ vertices on the opposite side of the cut. The $1$-Cut problem is the well-known Matching Cut…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a set of given connected graphs. A graph $G$ is said to be $\mathcal{H}$-free if $G$ contains no $H$ as an induced subgraph for any $H\in \mathcal{H}$. The graph $G$ is super-edge-connected if each minimum edge-cut…

We study illusion elimination problems on directed social networks where each vertex is colored either red or blue. A vertex is under \textit{majority illusion} if it has more red out-neighbors than blue out-neighbors when there are more…

While in many graph mining applications it is crucial to handle a stream of updates efficiently in terms of {\em both} time and space, not much was known about achieving such type of algorithm. In this paper we study this issue for a…

A split graph is a graph whose vertex set can be partitioned into a clique and a stable set. Given a graph $G$ and weight function $w: V(G) \to \mathbb{Q}_{\geq 0}$, the Split Vertex Deletion (SVD) problem asks to find a minimum weight set…

In this paper, we show a connection between a certain online low-congestion routing problem and an online prediction of graph labeling. More specifically, we prove that if there exists a routing scheme that guarantees a congestion of…

We consider the following two algorithmic problems: given a graph $G$ and a subgraph $H\subseteq G$, decide whether $H$ is an isometric or a geodesically convex subgraph of $G$. It is relatively easy to see that the problems can be solved…

In the densest subgraph problem, given a weighted undirected graph $G(V,E,w)$, with non-negative edge weights, we are asked to find a subset of nodes $S\subseteq V$ that maximizes the degree density $w(S)/|S|$, where $w(S)$ is the sum of…

In this paper, we study the Maximum Common Vertex Subgraph problem: Given two input graphs $G_1,G_2$ and a non-negative integer $h$, is there a common subgraph $H$ on at least $h$ vertices such that there is no isolated vertex in $H$. In…

We study the maximum induced matching problem on a graph g. Induced matchings correspond to independent sets in L2(g), the square of the line graph of g. The problem is NP-complete on bipartite graphs. In this work, we show that for a…

The Connected Vertex Cover problem is to decide if a graph G has a vertex cover of size at most $k$ that induces a connected subgraph of $G$. This is a well-studied problem, known to be NP-complete for restricted graph classes, and, in…

A tuple (s1,t1,s2,t2) of vertices in a simple undirected graph is 2-linked when there are two vertex-disjoint paths respectively from s1 to t1 and s2 to t2. A graph is 2-linked when all such tuples are 2-linked. We give a new and simple…
