Modern graph or network datasets often contain rich structure that goes beyond simple pairwise connections between nodes. This calls for complex representations that can capture, for instance, edges of different types as well as so-called…

Answering exact shortest path distance queries is a fundamental task in graph theory. Despite a tremendous amount of research on the subject, there is still no satisfactory solution that can scale to billion-scale complex networks.…

We introduce the problem of finding a spanning tree along with a partition of the tree edges into fewest number of feasible sets, where constraints on the edges define feasibility. The motivation comes from wireless networking, where we…
Community search is a well-studied problem which, given a static graph and a query set of vertices, requires to find a cohesive (or dense) subgraph containing the query vertices. In this paper we study the problem of community search in…
In this work we extend the concept of out/in-branchings spanning the vertices of a digraph (also called directed spanning trees) to temporal graphs, which are digraphs where arcs are available only at prescribed times. While the literature…
Interactions between two entities often occur at specific timestamps, which can be modeled as a temporal graph. Exploring the relationships between vertices based on temporal paths is one of the fundamental tasks. In this paper, we conduct…
In the $k$-edge-connected spanning subgraph ($k$ECSS) problem, our goal is to compute a minimum-cost sub-network that is resilient against up to $k$ link failures: Given an $n$-node $m$-edge graph with a cost function on the edges, our goal…
A great variety of complex systems ranging from user interactions in communication networks to transactions in financial markets can be modeled as temporal graphs, which consist of a set of vertices and a series of timestamped and directed…

Temporal graphs are graphs whose edges are labelled with times at which they are active. Their time-sensitivity provides a useful model of real networks, but renders many problems studied on temporal graphs more computationally complex than…

The classical, linear-time solvable Feedback Edge Set problem is concerned with finding a minimum number of edges intersecting all cycles in a (static, unweighted) graph. We provide a first study of this problem in the setting of temporal…
Let $G=(V,E)$ be an undirected graph on $n$ vertices and $\lambda:E\to 2^{\mathbb{N}}$ a mapping that assigns to every edge a non-empty set of integer labels (times). Such a graph is {\em temporally connected} if a path exists with…
