In the classical survivable network design problem (SNDP), we are given an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ with costs on edges and a connectivity requirement $k(s,t)$ for each pair of vertices. The goal is to find a minimum-cost subgraph…
Addressing a quest by Gupta et al. [ICALP'14], we provide a first, comprehensive study of finding a short s-t path in the multistage graph model, referred to as the Multistage s-t Path problem. Herein, given a sequence of graphs over the…
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 pattern $P[1..m]$. This basic problem can be found at the heart of more complex operations on variation graphs…
In dynamic graphs, edges may be added or deleted in each synchronous round. Various connectivity models exist based on constraints on these changes. One well-known model is the $T$-Interval Connectivity model, where the graph remains…

We study deterministic algorithms for computing graph cuts, with focus on two fundamental problems: balanced sparse cut and $k$-vertex connectivity for small $k$ ($k=O(\polylog n)$). Both problems can be solved in near-linear time with…

We study graph matching between two correlated networks in the almost fully seeded regime, where all but a vanishing fraction of vertex correspondences are revealed. Concretely, we consider the correlated stochastic block model and assume…
We consider the classical Minimum Balanced Cut problem: given a graph $G$, compute a partition of its vertices into two subsets of roughly equal volume, while minimizing the number of edges connecting the subsets. We present the first {\em…

We introduce a variant of the multiway cut that we call the min-max connected multiway cut. Given a graph $G=(V,E)$ and a set $\Gamma\subseteq V$ of $t$ terminals, partition $V$ into $t$ parts such that each part is connected and contains…
We prove three new lower bounds for graph connectivity in the $1$-bit broadcast congested clique model, BCC$(1)$. First, in the KT-$0$ version of BCC$(1)$, in which nodes are aware of neighbors only through port numbers, we show an…

A typical example that behaves computationally different in subclasses of chordal graphs is the \textsc{Subset Feedback Vertex Set} (SFVS) problem: given a vertex-weighted graph $G=(V,E)$ and a set $S\subseteq V$, the \textsc{Subset…
An $s{\operatorname{-}}t$ minimum cut in a graph corresponds to a minimum weight subset of edges whose removal disconnects vertices $s$ and $t$. Finding such a cut is a classic problem that is dual to that of finding a maximum flow from $s$…
