A generalization of the notion of spanning tree congestion for weighted graphs is introduced. The $L^p$ congestion of a spanning tree is defined as the $L^p$ norm of the edge congestion of that tree. In this context, the classical…

We show that the following problems are NP-complete. 1. Can the vertex set of a graph be partitioned into two sets such that each set induces a perfect graph? 2. Is the difference between the chromatic number and clique number at most $1$…

Clique-width is a well-studied graph parameter. For graphs of bounded clique-width, many problems that are NP-hard in general can be polynomial-time solvable. The fact motivates several studies to investigate whether the clique-width of…

An interval graph has interval count $\ell$ if it has an interval model, where among every $\ell+1$ intervals there are two that have the same length. Maximum Cut on interval graphs has been found to be NP-complete recently by Adhikary et…

A complete graph is the graph in which every two vertices are adjacent. For a graph $G=(V,E)$, the complete width of $G$ is the minimum $k$ such that there exist $k$ independent sets $\mathtt{N}_i\subseteq V$, $1\le i\le k$, such that the…
