We give an algorithm for finding the arboricity of a weighted, undirected graph, defined as the minimum number of spanning forests that cover all edges of the graph, in $\sqrt{n} m^{1+o(1)}$ time. This improves on the previous best bound of…
When solving the Hamiltonian path problem it seems natural to be given additional precedence constraints for the order in which the vertices are visited. For example one could decide whether a Hamiltonian path exists for a fixed starting…
Given a bipartite graph, the maximum balanced biclique (\textsf{MBB}) problem, discovering a mutually connected while equal-sized disjoint sets with the maximum cardinality, plays a significant role for mining the bipartite graph and has…
Graph partitioning schedules parallel calculations like sparse matrix-vector multiply (SpMV). We consider contiguous partitions, where the $m$ rows (or columns) of a sparse matrix with $N$ nonzeros are split into $K$ parts without…
In 1988, Vazirani gave an NC algorithm for computing the number of perfect matchings in $K_{3,3}$-minor-free graphs by building on Kasteleyn's scheme for planar graphs, and stated that this "opens up the possibility of obtaining an NC…
A pair of complementary algorithms are presented. One of the pair is a fast method for connecting graphs with an edge. The other is a fast method for removing edges from a graph. Both algorithms employ the same tree based graph…
We present a near-linear-time algorithm that, given a bridgeless cubic graph, finds a perfect matching intersecting every 3-edge-cut in exactly one edge. This improves over a cubic algorithm of Boyd et al. for the same problem, and over our…
We give an $n^{2+o(1)}$-time algorithm for finding $s$-$t$ min-cuts for all pairs of vertices $s$ and $t$ in a simple, undirected graph on $n$ vertices. We do so by constructing a Gomory-Hu tree (or cut equivalent tree) in the same running…
The Max-Cut problem is a fundamental NP-hard problem, which is attracting attention in the field of quantum computation these days. Regarding the approximation algorithm of the Max-Cut problem, algorithms based on semidefinite programming…
In the present paper, we study algorithmic questions for the arc-intersection graph of directed paths on a tree. Such graphs are known to be perfect (proved by Monma and Wei in 1986). We present faster algorithms than all previously known…
We present $k^{O(k^2)} m$ time algorithms for various problems about decomposing a given undirected graph by edge cuts or vertex separators of size $<k$ into parts that are ``well-connected'' with respect to cuts or separators of size $<k$;…
Imagine we want to split a group of agents into teams in the most \emph{efficient} way, considering that each agent has their own preferences about their teammates. This scenario is modeled by the extensively studied \textsc{Coalition…
This paper deals with simultaneously fast and in-place algorithms for formulae where the result has to be linearly accumulated: some output variables are also input variables, linked by a linear dependency. Fundamental examples include the…
Perfect Matching-Cut is the problem of deciding whether a graph has a perfect matching that contains an edge-cut. We show that this problem is NP-complete for planar graphs with maximum degree four, for planar graphs with girth five, for…
The study of approximate matching in the Massively Parallel Computations (MPC) model has recently seen a burst of breakthroughs. Despite this progress, however, we still have a far more limited understanding of maximal matching which is one…
The graph is one of the most widely used mathematical structures in engineering and science because of its representational power and inherent ability to demonstrate the relationship between objects. The objective of this work is to…
Haxell's condition is a natural hypergraph analog of Hall's condition, which is a well-known necessary and sufficient condition for a bipartite graph to admit a perfect matching. That is, when Haxell's condition holds it forces the…

Cartesian tree pattern matching consists of finding all the factors of a text that have the same Cartesian tree than a given pattern. There already exist theoretical and practical solutions for the exact case. In this paper, we propose the…
We consider a matching problem in a bipartite graph $G$ where every vertex has a capacity and a strict preference order on its neighbors. Furthermore, there is a cost function on the edge set. We assume $G$ admits a perfect matching, i.e.,…
