The minimal number of nodes required to multilaterate a network endowed with geodesic distance (i.e., to uniquely identify all nodes based on shortest path distances to the selected nodes) is called its metric dimension. This quantity is…
For a given graph $G$, the metric and edge metric dimensions of $G$, $\dim(G)$ and ${\rm edim}(G)$, are the cardinalities of the smallest possible subsets of vertices in $V(G)$ such that they uniquely identify the vertices and the edges of…

Given a graph $G=(V,E)$, a set $\mathcal{F}$ of forbidden subgraphs, we study $\mathcal{F}$-Free Edge Deletion, where the goal is to remove minimum number of edges such that the resulting graph does not contain any $F\in \mathcal{F}$ as a…
The edge-bandwidth of a graph is the minimum, over all labelings of the edges with distinct integers, of the maximum difference between labels of two incident edges. We prove that edge-bandwidth is at least as large as bandwidth for every…
We consider network structures that optimize the $\mathcal{H}_2$ norm of weighted, time scaled consensus networks, under a minimal representation of such consensus networks described by the edge Laplacian. We show that a greedy algorithm…
The aim of this paper is to characterize an important class of marked digraphs, called structurally observable graphs (SOGs), and to solve two minimum realization problems. To begin with, by exploring structural observability of large-scale…
The edge Szeged index of a graph $G$ is defined as $Sz_{e}(G)=\sum\limits_{uv\in E(G)}m_{u}(uv|G)m_{v}(uv|G)$, where $m_{u}(uv|G)$ (resp., $m_{v}(uv|G)$) is the number of edges whose distance to vertex $u$ (resp., $v$) is smaller than the…
A vertex set $S$ of a graph $G$ is geodetic if every vertex of $G$ lies on a shortest path between two vertices in $S$. Given a graph $G$ and $k \in \mathbb N$, the NP-hard Geodetic Set problem asks whether there is a geodetic set of size…
Say that an edge of a graph G dominates itself and every other edge adjacent to it. An edge dominating set of a graph G = (V,E) is a subset of edges E' of E which dominates all edges of G. In particular, if every edge of G is dominated by…
We pursue the study of edge-irregulators of graphs, which were recently introduced in [Fioravantes et al. Parametrised Distance to Local Irregularity. IPEC, 2024]. That is, we are interested in the parameter Ie(G), which, for a given graph…
Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) as deep learning models working on graph-structure data have achieved advanced performance in many works. However, it has been proved repeatedly that, not all edges in a graph are necessary for the training of…
Current graph neural networks (GNNs) that tackle node classification on graphs tend to only focus on nodewise scores and are solely evaluated by nodewise metrics. This limits uncertainty estimation on graphs since nodewise marginals do not…
A set $D$ of vertices in a graph $G$ is a dominating set if every vertex of $G$, which is not in $D$, has a neighbor in $D$. A set of vertices $D$ in $G$ is convex (respectively, isometric), if all vertices in all shortest paths…
Graph Edit Distance (GED) is a general and domain-agnostic metric to measure graph similarity, widely used in graph search or retrieving tasks. However, the exact GED computation is known to be NP-complete. For instance, the widely used A*…
The notion of resolving sets in a graph was introduced by Slater (1975) and Harary and Melter (1976) as a way of uniquely identifying every vertex in a graph. A set of vertices in a graph is a resolving set if for any pair of vertices x and…
For a graph class $\mathcal{C}$, the $\mathcal{C}$-Edge-Deletion problem asks for a given graph $G$ to delete the minimum number of edges from $G$ in order to obtain a graph in $\mathcal{C}$. We study the $\mathcal{C}$-Edge-Deletion problem…
A graph is chordal if it does not contain an induced cycle of length greater than three. We determine the minimum size of a chordal graph with given order and minimum degree. In doing so, we have discovered interesting properties of chordal…
In this paper, we study the computational complexity of finding the \emph{geodetic number} of graphs. A set of vertices $S$ of a graph $G$ is a \emph{geodetic set} if any vertex of $G$ lies in some shortest path between some pair of…
