In this paper, we consider the following two problems: (i) Deletion Blocker($\alpha$) where we are given an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ and two integers $k,d\geq 1$ and ask whether there exists a subset of vertices $S\subseteq V$ with…
This paper considers a natural fault-tolerant shortest paths problem: for some constant integer $f$, given a directed weighted graph with no negative cycles and two fixed vertices $s$ and $t$, compute (either explicitly or implicitly) for…
Given a graph, the shortest-path problem requires finding a sequence of edges with minimum cumulative length that connects a source vertex to a target vertex. We consider a variant of this classical problem in which the position of each…
In the Travelling Salesman Problem, every vertex of an edge-weighted graph has to be visited by an agent who traverses the edges of the graph. In this problem, it is usually assumed that the costs of each edge are given in advance, making…

In this work, we follow the current trend on temporal graph realization, where one is given a property P and the goal is to determine whether there is a temporal graph, that is, a graph where the edge set changes over time, with property P…
We analyze the computational complexity of the following computational problems called Bounded-Density Edge Deletion and Bounded-Density Vertex Deletion: Given a graph $G$, a budget $k$ and a target density $\tau_\rho$, are there $k$ edges…
For a graph class ${\cal H}$, the graph parameters elimination distance to ${\cal H}$ (denoted by ${\bf ed}_{\cal H}$) [Bulian and Dawar, Algorithmica, 2016], and ${\cal H}$-treewidth (denoted by ${\bf tw}_{\cal H}$) [Eiben et al. JCSS,…
For a finite collection of graphs ${\cal F}$, the ${\cal F}$-M-DELETION problem consists in, given a graph $G$ and an integer $k$, deciding whether there exists $S \subseteq V(G)$ with $|S| \leq k$ such that $G \setminus S$ does not contain…
In the decremental $(1+\epsilon)$-approximate Single-Source Shortest Path (SSSP) problem, we are given a graph $G=(V,E)$ with $n = |V|, m = |E|$, undergoing edge deletions, and a distinguished source $s \in V$, and we are asked to process…
Computing a (short) path between two vertices is one of the most fundamental primitives in graph algorithmics. In recent years, the study of paths in temporal graphs, that is, graphs where the vertex set is fixed but the edge set changes…
Suppose $\mathcal{F}$ is a finite family of graphs. We consider the following meta-problem, called $\mathcal{F}$-Immersion Deletion: given a graph $G$ and integer $k$, decide whether the deletion of at most $k$ edges of $G$ can result in a…
Vertex deletion problems ask whether it is possible to delete at most $k$ vertices from a graph so that the resulting graph belongs to a specified graph class. Over the past years, the parameterized complexity of vertex deletion to a…
We study the SHORTEST PATH problem with positive disjunctive constraints from the perspective of parameterized complexity. For positive disjunctive constraints, there are certain pair of edges such that any feasible solution must contain at…
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…
Moving an autonomous agent through an unknown environment is one of the crucial problems for robotics and network analysis. Therefore, it received a lot of attention in the last decades and was analyzed in many different settings. The graph…

We study the replacement paths problem in the $\mathsf{CONGEST}$ model of distributed computing. Given an $s$-$t$ shortest path $P$, the goal is to compute, for every edge $e$ in $P$, the shortest-path distance from $s$ to $t$ avoiding $e$.…
We consider the $\Pi$-free Deletion problem parameterized by the size of a vertex cover, for a range of graph properties $\Pi$. Given an input graph $G$, this problem asks whether there is a subset of at most $k$ vertices whose removal…
