The clique problems, including $k$-CLIQUE and Triangle Finding, form an important class of computational problems; the former is an NP-complete problem, while the latter directly gives lower bounds for Matrix Multiplication. A number of…
Given a set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane, we consider the problem of computing the number of points of $P$ in a query unit disk (i.e., all query disks have the same radius). We show that the main techniques for simplex range searching in…
The Max-Cut problem is known to be NP-hard on general graphs, while it can be solved in polynomial time on planar graphs. In this paper, we present a fixed-parameter tractable algorithm for the problem on `almost' planar graphs: Given an…
The higher-order correlation clustering problem for a graph $G$ and costs associated with cliques of $G$ consists in finding a clustering of $G$ so as to minimize the sum of the costs of those cliques whose nodes all belong to the same…
Given $n$ points in a circular region $C$ in the plane, we study the problems of moving the $n$ points to its boundary to form a regular $n$-gon such that the maximum (min-max) or the sum (min-sum) of the Euclidean distances traveled by the…
In graph theory, the longest path problem is the problem of finding a simple path of maximum length in a given graph. For some small classes of graphs, the problem can be solved in polynomial time [2, 4], but it remains NP-hard on general…
We consider the Minimum Convex Partition problem: Given a set P of n points in the plane, draw a plane graph G on P, with positive minimum degree, such that G partitions the convex hull of P into a minimum number of convex faces. We show…
We present a deterministic algorithm which, given a graph G with n vertices and an integer 1<m < n, computes in n^{O(ln m)} time the sum of weights w(S) over all m-subsets S of the set of vertices of G, where w(S)=exp{gamma t m +O(1/m)}…
We study the possibility of designing $N^{o(1)}$-round protocols for problems of substantially super-linear polynomial-time (sequential) complexity on the congested clique with about $N^{1/2}$ nodes, where $N$ is the input size. We show…
A link stream is a collection of triplets $(t, u, v)$ indicating that an interaction occurred between u and v at time t. We generalize the classical notion of cliques in graphs to such link streams: for a given $\Delta$, a $\Delta$-clique…
Consider algorithms with unbounded computation time that probe the entries of the adjacency matrix of an $n$ vertex graph, and need to output a clique. We show that if the input graph is drawn at random from $G_{n,\frac{1}{2}}$ (and hence…
We consider the problem of finding a local optimum for Max-Cut with FLIP-neighborhood, in which exactly one node changes the partition. Schaeffer and Yannakakis (SICOMP, 1991) showed PLS-completeness of this problem on graphs with unbounded…
A strong clique in a graph is a clique intersecting every maximal independent set. We study the computational complexity of six algorithmic decision problems related to strong cliques in graphs and almost completely determine their…
We consider the problem of identifying a maximum clique in a given graph. We have proposed a mathematical model for this problem. The model resembles the matrix decomposition of the adjacency matrix of a given graph. The objective function…
We consider mining dense substructures (maximal cliques) from an uncertain graph, which is a probability distribution on a set of deterministic graphs. For parameter 0 < {\alpha} < 1, we present a precise definition of an {\alpha}-maximal…

This paper addresses the problem of determining the maximum number of edges in a unit distance graph (UDG) of $n$ vertices using computer search. An unsolved problem of Paul Erd\H{o}s asks the maximum number of edges $u(n)$ a UDG of $n$…
This paper studies the following question: Given a surface $\Sigma$ and an integer $n$, what is the maximum number of cliques in an $n$-vertex graph embeddable in $\Sigma$? We characterise the extremal graphs for this question, and prove…
We propose improved exact and heuristic algorithms for solving the maximum weight clique problem, a well-known problem in graph theory with many applications. Our algorithms interleave successful techniques from related work with novel data…
We consider geometric problems on planar $n^2$-point sets in the congested clique model. Initially, each node in the $n$-clique network holds a batch of $n$ distinct points in the Euclidean plane given by $O(\log n)$-bit coordinates. In…
