In this paper, we show that the minimum number of vertices whose removal disconnects a connected strongly regular graph into non-singleton components, equals the size of the neighborhood of an edge for many graphs. These include blocks…

We study algorithmic and structural aspects of connectivity in hypergraphs. Given a hypergraph $H=(V,E)$ with $n = |V|$, $m = |E|$ and $p = \sum_{e \in E} |e|$ the best known algorithm to compute a global minimum cut in $H$ runs in time…

In this paper, we revisit the split decomposition of graphs and give new combinatorial and algorithmic results for the class of totally decomposable graphs, also known as the distance hereditary graphs, and for two non-trivial subclasses,…

In this paper, we study a \emph{multicut-mimicking network} for a hypergraph over terminals $T$ with a parameter $c$. It is a hypergraph preserving the minimum multicut values of any set of pairs over $T$ where the value is at most $c$.…

A new method is introduced for bounding the separation between the value of $-k$ and the smallest eigenvalue of a non-bipartite $k$-regular graph. The method is based on fractional decompositions of graphs. As a consequence we obtain a very…

A method for considering a weighted directed graph with an accuracy of up to a given partition of the set of vertices is proposed. The resulting digraph (the splitting graph) does not contain arcs inside each partition element, and the arcs…

The intersection graph induced by a set $\Disks$ of $n$ disks can be dense. It is thus natural to try and sparsify it, while preserving connectivity. Unfortunately, sparse graphs can always be made disconnected by removing a small number of…

In this paper, we develop a general analysis for the fixed points of the operators defining the graph splitting methods from [SIAM J. Optim., 34 (2024), pp. 1569-1594] by Bredies, Chenchene and Naldi. We particularize it to the case where…

If a biconnected graph stays connected after the removal of an arbitrary vertex and an arbitrary edge, then it is called 2.5-connected. We prove that every biconnected graph has a canonical decomposition into 2.5-connected components. These…
