In this paper, we give a simple polynomial-time reduction of {L(p)-Labeling} on graphs with a small diameter to {Metric (Path) TSP}, which enables us to use numerous results on {(Metric) TSP}. On the practical side, we can utilize various…
We study the NP-hard problem of approximating a Minimum Routing Cost Spanning Tree in the message passing model with limited bandwidth (CONGEST model). In this problem one tries to find a spanning tree of a graph $G$ over $n$ nodes that…
A distance labeling scheme is an assignment of bit-labels to the vertices of an undirected, unweighted graph such that the distance between any pair of vertices can be decoded solely from their labels. We propose a series of new labeling…
Probabilistic graphical models offer a powerful framework to account for the dependence structure between variables, which is represented as a graph. However, the dependence between variables may render inference tasks intractable. In this…
The independence number of a tree decomposition is the size of a largest independent set contained in a single bag. The tree-independence number of a graph $G$ is the minimum independence number of a tree decomposition of $G$. As shown…
The notion of $\mathcal{H}$-treewidth, where $\mathcal{H}$ is a hereditary graph class, was recently introduced as a generalization of the treewidth of an undirected graph. Roughly speaking, a graph of $\mathcal{H}$-treewidth at most $k$…
Network reliability is an important metric to evaluate the connectivity among given vertices in uncertain graphs. Since the network reliability problem is known as #P-complete, existing studies have used approximation techniques. In this…
We study the problem of low-stretch spanning trees in graphs of bounded width: bandwidth, cutwidth, and treewidth. We show that any simple connected graph $G$ with a linear arrangement of bandwidth $b$ can be embedded into a distribution…
We combine two methods for the lossless compression of unlabeled graphs - entropy compressing adjacency lists and computing canonical names for vertices - and solve an ensuing novel optimisation problem: Minimum-Entropy Tree-Extraction…
Over the past decade, we witness an increasing amount of interest in the design of exact exponential-time and parameterized algorithms for problems in Graph Drawing. Unfortunately, we still lack knowledge of general methods to develop such…
The resiliency of a network is its ability to remain \emph{effectively} functioning also when any of its nodes or links fails. However, to reduce operational and set-up costs, a network should be small in size, and this conflicts with the…
The goal of a hub-based distance labeling scheme for a network G = (V, E) is to assign a small subset S(u) $\subseteq$ V to each node u $\in$ V, in such a way that for any pair of nodes u, v, the intersection of hub sets S(u) $\cap$ S(v)…
We present an algorithm that, with high probability, generates a random spanning tree from an edge-weighted undirected graph in $\tilde{O}(n^{4/3}m^{1/2}+n^{2})$ time (The $\tilde{O}(\cdot)$ notation hides $\operatorname{polylog}(n)$…
The graph edit distance is used for comparing graphs in various domains. Due to its high computational complexity it is primarily approximated. Widely-used heuristics search for an optimal assignment of vertices based on the distance…
It is well known that the treewidth of a graph $G$ corresponds to the node search number where a team of cops is pursuing a robber that is lazy, visible and has the ability to move at infinite speed via unguarded path. In recent papers,…

We give an algorithm that, given an $n$-vertex graph $G$ and an integer $k$, in time $2^{O(k)} n$ either outputs a tree decomposition of $G$ of width at most $2k + 1$ or determines that the treewidth of $G$ is larger than $k$. This is the…
This work proposes \textsc{H-Td}, a practical linear-time algorithm for computing an optimal-width tree decomposition of Halin graphs. Unlike state-of-the-art methods based on reduction rules or separators, \textsc{H-Td} exploits the…
Exact pattern matching in labeled graphs is the problem of searching paths of a graph $G=(V,E)$ that spell the same string as the pattern $P[1..m]$. This basic problem can be found at the heart of more complex operations on variation graphs…
