Let $G=(V,E)$ be a finite undirected graph. An edge set $E' \subseteq E$ is a dominating induced matching (d.i.m.) in $G$ if every edge in $E$ is intersected by exactly one edge of $E'$. The Dominating Induced Matching (DIM) problem asks…

We show that equivalence of deterministic top-down tree-to-string transducers is decidable, thus solving a long standing open problem in formal language theory. We also present efficient algorithms for subclasses: polynomial time for total…

We study the graphs formed from instances of the stable matching problem by connecting pairs of elements with an edge when there exists a stable matching in which they are matched. Our results include the NP-completeness of recognizing…

Temporal graphs are graphs with time-stamped edges. We study the problem of finding a small vertex set (the separator) with respect to two designated terminal vertices such that the removal of the set eliminates all temporal paths…

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…

The purpose of this article is to examine and limit the conditions in which the P complexity class could be equivalent to the NP complexity class. Proof is provided by demonstrating that as the number of clauses in a NP-complete problem…

This paper revisits the classical Edge Disjoint Paths (EDP) problem, where one is given an undirected graph $G$ and a set of terminal pairs $P$ and asks whether $G$ contains a set of pairwise edge-disjoint paths connecting every terminal…

A dominating set D in a graph G is a subset of its vertices such that every vertex of the graph which does not belong to set D is adjacent to at least one vertex from set D. A set of vertices of graph G is a global dominating set if it is a…

The decision problem of perfect matchings in uniform hypergraphs is famously an NP-complete problem. It has been shown by Keevash--Knox--Mycroft [STOC, 2013] that for every $\varepsilon>0$, such decision problem restricted to $k$-uniform…
