Problems related to finding induced subgraphs satisfying given properties form one of the most studied areas within graph algorithms. Such problems have given rise to breakthrough results and led to development of new techniques both within…
This paper investigates the complexity of finding secluded paths in graphs. We focus on the \textsc{Short Secluded Path} problem and a natural new variant we introduce, \textsc{Shortest Secluded Path}. Formally, given an undirected graph…
In this paper, we are interested in algorithms that take in input an arbitrary graph $G$, and that enumerate in output all the (inclusion-wise) maximal "subgraphs" of $G$ which fulfil a given property $\Pi$. All over this paper, we study…
The celebrated notion of important separators bounds the number of small $(S,T)$-separators in a graph which are 'farthest from $S$' in a technical sense. In this paper, we introduce a generalization of this powerful algorithmic primitive…
Bhawalkar, Kleinberg, Lewi, Roughgarden, and Sharma [ICALP 2012] introduced the Anchored k-Core problem, where the task is for a given graph G and integers b, k, and p to find an induced subgraph H with at least p vertices (the core) such…
The Secluded Path problem models a situation where a sensitive information has to be transmitted between a pair of nodes along a path in a network. The measure of the quality of a selected path is its exposure, which is the total weight of…
Computing the directed path-width of a directed graph is an NP-hard problem. Even for digraphs of maximum semi-degree 3 the problem remains hard. We propose a decomposition of an input digraph G=(V,A) by a number k of sequences with entries…
We study the NP-hard graph problem Collapsed k-Core where, given an undirected graph G and integers b, x, and k, we are asked to remove b vertices such that the k-core of remaining graph, that is, the (uniquely determined) largest induced…
An undirected graph is Eulerian if it is connected and all its vertices are of even degree. Similarly, a directed graph is Eulerian, if for each vertex its in-degree is equal to its out-degree. It is well known that Eulerian graphs can be…
We introduce a class of parameterised counting problems on graphs, p-#Induced Subgraph With Property(\Phi), which generalises a number of problems which have previously been studied. This paper focusses on the case in which \Phi defines a…
A graph property is a function $\Phi$ that maps every graph to {0, 1} and is invariant under isomorphism. In the $\#IndSub(\Phi)$ problem, given a graph $G$ and an integer $k$, the task is to count the number of $k$-vertex induced subgraphs…
We investigate the parameterized complexity of finding subgraphs with hereditary properties on graphs belonging to a hereditary graph class. Given a graph $G$, a non-trivial hereditary property $\Pi$ and an integer parameter $k$, the…
Dense subgraph discovery is an important graph-mining primitive with a variety of real-world applications. One of the most well-studied optimization problems for dense subgraph discovery is the densest subgraph problem, where given an…
We study the problem #IndSub(P) of counting all induced subgraphs of size k in a graph G that satisfy the property P. This problem was introduced by Jerrum and Meeks and shown to be #W[1]-hard when parameterized by k for some families of…
Given a graph property $\Phi$, the problem $\#\mathsf{IndSub}(\Phi)$ asks, on input a graph $G$ and a positive integer $k$, to compute the number of induced subgraphs of size $k$ in $G$ that satisfy $\Phi$. The search for explicit criteria…
We introduce a family of graph parameters, called induced multipartite graph parameters, and study their computational complexity. First, we consider the following decision problem: an instance is an induced multipartite graph parameter $p$…
Paths P1,...,Pk in a graph G=(V,E) are said to be mutually induced if for any 1 <= i < j <= k, Pi and Pj have neither common vertices nor adjacent vertices (except perhaps their end-vertices). The Induced Disjoint Paths problem is to test…
We study the parameterized complexity of #IndSub($\Phi$), where given a graph $G$ and an integer $k$, the task is to count the number of induced subgraphs on $k$ vertices that satisfy the graph property $\Phi$. Focke and Roth [STOC 2022]…
The problem of enumerating all connected induced subgraphs of a given order $k$ from a given graph arises in many practical applications: bioinformatics, information retrieval, processor design,to name a few. The upper bound on the number…
The problem of computing all maximal induced subgraphs of a graph G that have a graph property P, also called the maximal P-subgraphs problem, is considered. This problem is studied for hereditary, connected-hereditary and rooted-hereditary…
