Let $d$-claw (or $d$-star) stand for $K_{1,d}$, the complete bipartite graph with 1 and $d\ge 1$ vertices on each part. The $d$-claw vertex deletion problem, $d$-CLAW-VD, asks for a given graph $G$ and an integer $k$ if one can delete at…
The well-known Cluster Vertex Deletion problem (CVD) asks for a given graph $G$ and an integer $k$ whether it is possible to delete a set $S$ of at most $k$ vertices of $G$ such that the resulting graph $G-S$ is a cluster graph (a disjoint…
In this paper, we study the computational complexity of \textsc{$s$-Club Cluster Vertex Deletion}. Given a graph, \textsc{$s$-Club Cluster Vertex Deletion ($s$-CVD)} aims to delete the minimum number of vertices from the graph so that each…
The K-way vertex cut problem} consists in, given a graph G, finding a subset of vertices of a given size, whose removal partitions G into the maximum number of connected components. This problem has many applications in several areas. It…
We introduce the s-Plex Cluster Vertex Deletion problem. Like the Cluster Vertex Deletion problem, it is NP-hard and motivated by graph-based data clustering. While the task in Cluster Vertex Deletion is to delete vertices from a graph so…
For a positive integer $s$, an $s$-club in a graph $G$ is a set of vertices inducing a subgraph with diameter at most $s$. As generalizations of cliques, $s$-clubs offer a flexible model for real-world networks. This paper addresses the…
The s-club cluster vertex deletion number of a graph, or sccvd, is the minimum number of vertices whose deletion results in a disjoint union of s-clubs, or graphs whose diameter is bounded above by s. We launch a study of several domination…
In the {\sc Cluster Deletion} problem the goal is to remove the minimum number of edges of a given graph, such that every connected component of the resulting graph constitutes a clique. It is known that the decision version of {\sc Cluster…
A graph is $c$-closed when every pair of nonadjacent vertices has at most $c-1$ common neighbors. In $c$-Closed Vertex Deletion, the input is a graph $G$ and an integer $k$ and we ask whether $G$ can be transformed into a $c$-closed graph…
Clustering a graph when the clusters can overlap can be seen from three different angles: We may look for cliques that cover the edges of the graph with bounded overlap, we may look to add or delete few edges to uncover the cluster…
We study the VC-dimension of the set system on the vertex set of some graph which is induced by the family of its $k$-connected subgraphs. In particular, we give tight upper and lower bounds for the VC-dimension. Moreover, we show that…
Generally, a graph G, an independent set is a subset S of vertices in G such that no two vertices in S are adjacent (connected by an edge) and a vertex cover is a subset S of vertices such that each edge of G has at least one of its…
For any fixed positive integer $r$ and a given budget $k$, the $r$-\textsc{Eigenvalue Vertex Deletion} ($r$-EVD) problem asks if a graph $G$ admits a subset $S$ of at most $k$ vertices such that the adjacency matrix of $G\setminus S$ has at…
Vertex splitting consists of taking a vertex $v$ in a graph and replacing it with two non-adjacent vertices whose combined neighborhoods is the neighborhood of $v$. The split is said to be exclusive when these neighborhoods are disjoint. In…
Editing a graph to obtain a disjoint union of s-clubs is one of the models for correlation clustering, which seeks a partition of the vertex set of a graph so that elements of each resulting set are close enough according to some given…
A hedge graph is a graph whose edge set has been partitioned into groups called hedges. Here we consider a generalization of the well-known \textsc{Cluster Deletion} problem, named \textsc{Hedge Cluster Deletion}. The task is to compute the…

Containing many classic optimization problems, the family of vertex deletion problems has an important position in algorithm and complexity study. The celebrated result of Lewis and Yannakakis gives a complete dichotomy of their complexity.…
In the Split Vertex Deletion problem, given a graph G and an integer k, we ask whether one can delete k vertices from the graph G to obtain a split graph (i.e., a graph, whose vertex set can be partitioned into two sets: one inducing a…
